Don't Try This At Home album
 $14.45   
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, ...

$13.05 
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: ...

Don't Try This At Home music CDs
$11.25 
North Carolina sibling duo the Avett Brothers return in 2009, fresh off a few years of building a cult following for its melodic and rootsy alt-bluegrass sound, with the subdued I AND LOVE AND YOU. The opening single and title track basks in piano-pop splendor in an odd mix of Beach Boys, Byrds, and the Band.
The Avett Brothers continue charting the same musical course as EMOTIONALISM and MIGNONETTE on major-label debut I AND LOVE AND YOU, ...

| | Ramblin Jack Elliott Young Brigham CD (1968)
Don't Try This At Home songs
$11.39
Includes original release liner notes by Johnny Cash & reissue liner notes by Richie Unterberger.
Folksinger Ramblin' Jack Elliott is a fascinating and eccentric figure, and Young Brigham from 1968 finds him in his element. The arrangements are busier than on his previous recordings, but they never get in the way of his off-the-cuff style. His vocals are perhaps more eccentric here than usual, delivering out of the ordinary versions of If I Were a Carpenter and Tennessee Stud. The difference between Elliott's versions and those of your average folksinger is that he sounds as though he's having a good time. This renders over-familiar material, like the above-mentioned songs, fresh. There are great versions of Danville Girl and Don't Think Twice, It's Alright, and a nice original titled, 912 Greens. Elliott usually stuck to singing other people's songs and held onto his folk roots even when singer-songwriters began to take over the `60s folk scene. Even the Rolling Stone's Connection, comes across as country-folk, not rock-and-roll. Elliott also includes a couple of Woody Guthrie songs to let everyone know where his roots lay. Richie Unterberger's liner notes do a great job of placing this album in context. It would be the first of two albums Elliott would record for Reprise in an unsuccessful attempt to bring him to a larger audience. Larger audience or not, the music stands for itself. Young Brigham is a nice snapshot of Elliott in the late `60s and shows him leaving the confines of a large studio with his folk heritage intact. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr.
In the wake of the unexpected commercial success of Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant in 1967, his record company, Warner Bros. (along with its sister label, Reprise) became interested in signing more New York-based folksingers, and soon Eric Andersen, David Blue, Joni Mitchell, and Ramblin' Jack Elliott had found homes on the West Coast major. Elliott was perhaps the least likely of this roster, having kicked around the folk scene since the early 1950s, when he was a junior associate of Woody Guthrie's, and made a series of albums for the folk division of the independent jazz label Prestige. Reprise made no overt attempt to alter Elliott's style to make him more commercial. Producer Bruce Langhorne (famed for his guitar stylings on albums by Bob Dylan and other folk-rock performers) brought in some extra musicians, and Elliott ...

Don't Try This At Home album
$16.19
It takes a perusal through the booklet to realize this isn't a long-lost Look album that has been gathering dust on some shelf for the preceding two decades. No, instead the set is comprised of nine new -- or at least "newish" -- songs; some date back to 1999, and "I Am the Beat" is appended as a bonus track. "I Am the Beat," of course, was the single that established the band's reputation, a number six U.K. smash back in 1980. The follow-up failed to follow in "I Am the Beat"'s soaring footsteps, and the group subsequently moved from MCA to the small Towerbell indie. When that label closed shop in 1983, the Look folded as well. But the intervening years seem to have barely touched the band, which continues to punch out perfect little pop/rock nuggets. The production glosses up the sound, ...
