One of the few remaining original punk rock bands, Television Personalities revolves around the fragile psyche of Dan Treacy, whose talent for writing simple yet infernally catchy songs is still intact some 30 years after his first hit, "Part-Time Punks" (bouts of mental illness and a spell in prison notwithstanding). However, despite the snarky observation of "The Peter Gabriel Song" and the sing-song childish innocence of the title track, there's a distinct sense of adult insecurity in songs like "I Get Scared When I Don't Know Where You Are" and the confessional "You Are Loved."

Treacy sounds like he's having fun doing punk rock karaoke on the faux-rap "The Eminem Song," but the lyrics are deadly serious, and "All the King's Horses," which again sounds like karaoke, has an air of despondency. On the bright side, two enjoyable covers, of Bruce Springsteen's "If I Should Fall Behind" and the Killers' "Mr. Brightside," find the band in full punk rock effect, and the gorgeous "If I Could Write Poetry" is a classic, punk-flavored slice of synth-pop.

2007 release by Dan Treacy AKA the only constant member of Television Personalities. These studio tracks were recorded in 2005, shortly after his release from prison! 13 tracks including cover versions of The Killers "Mr. Brightside" and Bruce Springsteen's "If I Should Fall Behind". Overground.Mojo (Publisher) (p.99) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t ranges from smashing Barrett-style whimsy to quirky covers of The Killers' 'Mr. Brightside' and Bruce Springsteen's 'If I Should Fall Behind'."

Sundowners Chicago Country Legends CD  (2003)

Are We Nearly There Yet? music CDs
CD $9.49  Audio Samples
In the old days before country music was regarded as a viable commercial medium by the mainstream music industry (a discovery that has caused country & western nothing but trouble since), practically every city of any size had at least one honky tonk with a house band capable of playing anything a customer was likely to request. In Chicago, the Sundowners were a three-piece country band that held court from 1959 to 1989 in a handful of Windy City beer joints; they spent most of their career at a club called the R.R. Ranch, where they would play all night four nights a week and run through 7,000 songs in a year. While on the surface the Sundowners might sound like an ordinary bar band, Chicago Country Legends is a collection of live recordings culled from 11 years of gigs, which proves they were anything but. Don Walls' jazzy, Merle Travis-inspired lead guitar lines would have been the envy of any number of Nashville pickers, second guitarist Bob Boyd and bassist Curt Delaney were a strong enough rhythm section that one rarely noticed the lack of a drummer, and their ...

Chris Stamey Travels In The South CD  (2004)

Are We Nearly There Yet? songs
CD $13.75  Audio Samples
A founding leader of the influential cult band the dB's, Chris Stamey has spent most of last 15 years producing other people's discs (Alejandro Escovedo, Yo La Tengo, Whiskeytown) rather than creating his own. Not counting a 1995 instrumental album, Travels in the South marks his first record since 1991, when he released both the solo Fireworks and Mavericks, a duet disc with his old dB's partner Peter Holsapple. South, however, shows little sign of rustiness. The album kicks off with the glorious "14 Shades of Green," a chimey gem that takes a nostalgic look at a hometown. This leadoff track also establishes the theme of traveling that runs through the disc. Songs like "Insomnia," "Ride," and the title track all touch upon the feeling of life in transit. The sublime "In Spanish Harlem" takes a Paul Simon-esque look at New York City but with a decidedly eased-back Southern tempo. The entire album, in fact, rides along at a leisurely ...

Are We Nearly There Yet? album
CD $11.69  4.6 stars Audio Samples
On guitar-slinger Johnny Winter's 2004 outing, I'M A BLUESMAN, his spicy style of playing keeps with a legacy dating back to the late 1960s, when he was playing on the club circuit of tiny Beaumont, Texas. Tapping Roy Buchanan/Albert Collins producer Dick Shurman to man the console, Winter wisely brings his touring band into the studio with him. Although the albino axe-wielder's guitar tone sounds oddly compressed, his still-impressive playing does much to dispel ...
