  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

  • HIGH SOUTH a Change in the Wind with Impressive Three-Part Harmonies, a Dedication to Songwriting, and Unwavering Optimism
    HIGH SOUTH A Change in the Wind With impressive three-part harmonies, a dedication to songwriting, and unwavering optimism, the Nashville-based band High South has developed a dedicated following across Europe, where they’ve been touring regularly there since 2015. Now they’re breaking into the American market with A Change in the Wind, a captivating project that draws comparisons to classic rock bands like the Eagles, Doobie Brothers, and Crosby, Stills and Nash. The group – composed of Jamey Garner, Kevin Campos, and Phoenix Mendoza – sums up it this way: “As vocalists we are always drawn to harmony. It’s such a naturally pleasing sound that we're absolutely hooked on -- and it was never more prevalent than the 1970s. Every kid learns from their environment and we were all fortunate to have parents that exposed us to the music of this era. In a sense, it’s in our soul.” With a desire to carry on that iconic ‘70s vibe, High South teamed with producer Josh Leo, known for his work with Glenn Frey, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Jimmy Buffett, and Kim Carnes, as well as No. 1 hits for country artists Love & Theft and Emerson Drive. Other collaborators on A Change in the Wind include engineer Niko Bolas (Neil Young, Don Henley, Warren Zevon), guitarist Jack Pearson (Allman Brothers Band), keyboard player Tony Harrell (Flying Burrito Brothers), drummer Nir Z (Genesis), and singer Raul Malo (The Mavericks). Although the band released several singles internationally through Universal Germany, A Change in the Wind is their first release with distribution in America.

    RECEIVED 0 5 JUL 201Z HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVI8 STANDING COMMITTBI ON INFRASTRUCTURE AND COMMUNICATIONS The Committee Secretary House of Representatives Standing Committee on Infrastructure and Communications P.O.BOX 6021 PARLIAMENT HOUSE CANBERRA ACT 2600 AUSTRALIA, Dear Sir or Madam, A simple, brief and hopefully to the point illustration of the ongoing exploitation of the Australian consumer by the world's largest music retailer, Apple's " i-tunes" I enclose examples of what would be described as a "back catalogue" item with a Nine (9) dollar difference in pricing, with the Australian dollar sitting at parity with the US dollar. This is how it is with most music products, 1000's of pages of submission are not needed, just ask Apple to explain, justify this example , I understand that if Apple set their price and people pay then the argument for it to stop seems weak but their pricing is immoral and exploitative . They know they are the market leader and use their market power to make excessive profits. It seems that they have been guilty of this sort of behaviour in other countries and have been forced to change their pricing, In America they were seen to be charging an unfair price for their sonically inferior product when compared with the CD and were forced to change their pricing. They have been censured recently over their immoral advertising of products and "4G" compatibility Hopefully something can be done to ensure that Australia is not just an easy target for huge corporations like Apple Yours sincerely PAUL BARKER Music a Rock i Warren Zevon Album Review After the release of Warren Zevon's fourth album, Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School, he was clean and sober for the first time years, and on-stage he was determined to make the most of his newrtound strength and self-control.
