| | Widespread Panic Another Joyous Occasion CD Widespread Panic Discography of CDs
For the first release on its own Widespread Records, Widespread Panic went with its strengths and released a live set recorded during the band's summer 1999 tour. Like fellow Georgians the Black Crowes, this Athens sextet also took the Dirty Dozen Brass Band on the road to add another dimension to its in-concert sound.
The results are stellar and work particularly well on both the groove-heavy "Fishwater," and the loping, Big Easy feel of "Christmas Katie." The most interesting intersection of these two groups comes on the epic, near 12-minute "Beehive Jam," a swirling instrumental opus that includes plenty of Sun Ra-influenced, free jazz nuances. Interspersed among the six originals included here is an interesting array of covers. A well-traveled band, the range of Widespread Panic's regional influences include Detroit (Stevie Wonder's "Superstition"), New Orleans (Dr. John's "I Walk On Gilded Splinters," Earl King's "Big Chief"), and Jamaica (reggae pioneer Winston Riley's "Arleen").

Even the brightest, most colorful flowers lose their petals; we seek pleasure but know sadness and pain lurks at each turn. This is cultivated in the rich artistic soil of the self-titled debut album by Pleasure Garden. The Seattle foursome and producer Tom Pfaeffle (Gatsby's American Dream, Edisyn, Kay Kay and his Weathered Underground), have put together a collection of 12 tales of people and passion, love and loss. "The music is edgy and crunchy, the songs complete and thorough," says Pfaeffle. "These are solid straight-ahead rock songs that will resonate with pop, alt and rock audiences. It has great energy." The stories come from the experiences and lives of frontman Luther X, with complimentary tales from guitarist John Moodie. Bassist Tom Donohue and drummer David Helber provide the backbone around which X and Moodie's musical nervous system revolves. The foursome formed in 2004 playing shows in and around Seattle as Sausage Farmers for two years before beginning work on the album in 2006. As the songs evolved during the recording process, the group realized that there was a level of seriousness and musical maturity that surpassed the humor of their previous name. Pleasure Garden, already a song recorded for the album, became the band's name as well. "The name is ironic," notes Luther X. "The stories are about striving for pleasure but having your dreams shattered in the end." Each song begins and ends as such. "Something to Tell You" explores the helplessness of a failing relationship with the inability to deliver the news that it's over. "Time Zone" reflects on the initial blissfulness of a relationship followed by the melancholy about never being able to get to that early space again. "Pleasure Garden" the song chronicles love that is cut down after it blossoms."'Seasons of Change' was the first song I ever wrote," explains Luther X. "I wrote the music in high school and the lyrics in my early 20s when a girl I had a huge crush on suddenly got married. It made me realize life was for keeps and I spent a lot of time then reminiscing about compelling images of change while growing up. I think we all have those milestones in our lives, those wake-up calls for better or worse." "The album has a playful ...
