Neil Young and Crazy Horse on the Road!


The ever-awesome Neil Young and Crazy Horse are back on the road for the first time in 8 years supporting the newly released "Americana" album; Neil's collection of American folk/rock standards. In typical bizarre Neil fashion, the shows are featuring only one song from the album while the setlists have featured no less than five never before heard original tunes. The new songs range from a reflective acoustic ditty about Neil's love of older music to the fiery garage rave-ups The Horse do so well.

One has to assume this stuff will come out on a new studio album at some point but like all things Neil Young.....who knows?! Enjoy some of the great new tunes below (song titles taked from the Sugar Mountain fan site.


"Born in Ontario"



"Twisted Road"



"For the Love of Man"



"Psychedelic Pill"

My Morning Jacket Animated!

One of My favorite albums of last year was certainly My Morning Jacket's "Circuital". It was one of those rare releases where each song sounded better listening to the album as a whole then taken separately. Yesterday, the band released the awesomely trippy, "Yellow Submarine"-flavored clip for the tune "Outta My System". If the clip wasn't already cool enough, it features a animated Zach Galifianakis as the wizard. Whoa dude!

New Bob Mould Track-"The Descent"

It's a great day music fans! A new song from the upcoming Bob Mould album (Silver Age) dropped today from Bob's brand new label, Merge Records. Set for release on September 04; if the first track is any indication, the album should feature the beautiful hard rock shimmer as only Mould can produce so wonderfully. I cannot wait!

Crank this one up to 11 folks!! And as a bonus, check out a great 3-song clip of Bob shredding through some Husker Du classics with devotee Dave Grohl and some friends recorded last year.

Happy 70'th Jerry!

Today Jerry Garcia would have been 70 years old. If I think about all the music his loss in 1995 deprived us of, I get sad. I much prefer to think about the insane amount of great music he left us with!

Here is a great full J.G.B. show from 1991 to celebrate today. "Let the music play"!

Wilco Rock Fallon

Hello fellow music freaks and geeks! I know I've been posting too much crap from the Jimmy Fallon show lately, but the dude just has SO much great music on that it's easy to miss something awesome. Like last night's Wilco appearence that I just found about today! The band who never seems to stop touring rocked the epic album opener "Art of Almost" from "The Whole Love" as well as an amazing "web-only" performance of the full-band rarity "Lamented Cat".

Turn these up loud and prepare for some serious rock and roll face-melting!

Tom Waits Storms Late Night

Who owned late night TV the last couple of nights?? Well, the amazing and normally reclusive Tom Waits that's who! Tom joined David Letterman on Monday night for a great interview and a killer rip through the track "Chicago" and then sat down with a nervous Jimmy Fallon last night and roared through “Raised Right Men”. Both tunes featured a crackerjack band which included Los Lobos guitarist David Hildalgo on guitar. Now if only we could talk Tom into getting his OWN show.....

Enjoy all the Waits goodness below!
