| | Stone Coyotes Born To Howl CD Stone Coyotes Discography of CDs
Their first album got a nice publicity push by virtue of the band's association with crime novelist Elmore Leonard, who wrote them into his music-biz novel Be Cool, but the Stone Coyotes unload a potent wallop that stands quite wonderfully on its own merits, which their third offering again goes a long way towards proving. Put plainly, the trio makes an awesomely raw, stripped-down rock & roll racket. The guitar riffs on the overdriven numbers do indeed bare a much publicized kindred spirit to those of AC/DC, and the pop-and-son rhythm section is awesomely boozy like ZZ Top. The metronomic thwap of Doug Tibbles coupled with progeny John's grumbling-blues bass grooves is rock at its very purest and most urgent. Punk, really, if you think about it. And all due respect to Bon Scott, Brian Johnson, and the be-bearded Texans, but none of them have the cool, sexy croon of Barbara Keith. As bold as it might be to claim, neither band comes up with hooks as tasty as hers either, nor lyrics (stripped of their machismo but not their swagger) that have as much of an impact. Nor have those units ever shown the ability to toss off the odd slow-burning cover (Dolly Parton's "Jolene") or pretty, poignant ballad ("Detroit or Buffalo," which originally found a home on one of Keith's two early-'70s solo albums). In many ways the band flies in the face of conventional wisdom. At an age (which is to say middle-age) when most rockers this side of the Rolling Stones are either hanging up their leather pants or switching to a genre more conducive to maturity (say folk or country), Keith and Tibbles seem to be just hitting their stride, and they out-snarl musicians half their age. If you don't believe it, Keith tells you herself in "American Child," with a chorus as perfect and to the point as they come: "Give me Jerry Lee Lewis/Give me Joey Ramone." Elsewhere, the band writes a sort of sequel to "I Love Rock-n-Roll," which Joan Jett would be smart to snag. Born to Howl simply transforms four chords into rock nirvana. ~ Stanton Swihart

Born To Howl album
 $11.19   
Often, supergroups wind up dominated by one particular personality - think Eric Clapton in Derek & the Dominos, Jack White in the Raconteurs -- which makes the egalitarianism of Them Crooked Vultures all the more remarkable. Of course, when it comes down to it, it's a group of three natural-born collaborators: John Paul Jones, the old studio pro who gravitated toward provocative partners after Led Zeppelin's demise, teaming up with R.E.M. as easily as he did with avant-queen Diamanda Galas and nu-folkster Sara Watkins; Dave Grohl, who hopped into an empty drummer's chair whenever the opportunity presented itself; and Josh Homme, who set up a mini-empire based entirely on jam sessions. If Them Crooked Vultures brings to mind Homme's projects more than Grohl's or Jones', it's largely due to his role as lead vocalist and how guitar can push a rhythm section as powerful as this to the side, dominating with its grinding riffs and solos. Homme's predilection for precision does reign supreme -- when the group stretches out, even wallowing in the murk on "Interlude with Ludes," there's the sense that, like a great improv troupe, the trio freaked out then ...
| | Rosanne Cash List CD (2009)
Born To Howl CD music
$15.09   
After the dark and chilling themes of 2006's BLACK CADILLAC, which saw Rosanne Cash dealing with the deaths of her mother, Vivian Liberto, her father, Johnny Cash, and her stepmother, June Carter Cash -- all of whom passed within a two-year span -- one might assume that her next project would move into an even deeper level of bleakness, but with THE LIST, it's immediately clear that she has instead found a more measured place to stand. It's a lovely and redemptive outing that looks back to go forward. When Cash turned 18, her father, alarmed that his daughter only knew the songs that were getting played on the radio, gave her a list of what he considered 100 essential American songs; Cash kept that list, and now she's drawn on it for this wonderfully nuanced outing that brims with a kind of redemptive timelessness. THE LIST is a renewal and a testament to life, and it belongs to her father as much as it belongs to her, ...

Recorded live at Madison Square Garden, New York, New York on November 27-28, 1969.
Returning to the American concert scene after a three-year layoff, the Rolling Stones recorded GET YER YA-YA'S OUT! during a triumphant two-date stand at Madison Square Garden in late November 1969 that found B.B. King and Ike & Tina Turner opening for them. Having amassed an impressive recorded output during their three years away from touring, the Stones peppered their sets with hits, including "Honky Tonk Women," "Jumpin' Jack Flash," and "Street Fighting Man." Tipping their collective hats to Chuck Berry, the band also included covers of "Carol" and "Little Queenie" alongside more blues-influenced numbers such as "Stray Cat Blues" and "Love In Vain."
Having been a member of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, new guitarist Mick Taylor parlayed his experience into some impressive slide guitar work. The pièce-de-resistance ...
