In case you missed it, check out Fresh Air’s take on Aaron Lee Tasjan TERRY GROSS, HOST: This is FRESH AIR. Aaron Lee Tasjan is a singer-songwriter currently residing in Nashville, but he’s not a country artist. Claiming to be heavily influenced by rockers like David Bowie and the Beatles, Tasjan recently told Rolling Stone he hopes his new album, “Karma For Cheap,” can help to comfort or uplift somebody. One of the people he’s uplifted is our rock critic Ken Tucker. Here’s Ken’s review of “Karma For Cheap.” (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, “STRANGE SHADOWS”) AARON LEE TASJAN: (Singing) Strange shadow is painted on her eyes. She’ll lose it when she cries in the rain. Strange... KEN TUCKER, BYLINE: With his yearning vocals and strong guitar lines, Aaron Lee Tasjan has a kind of passion in his plaintiveness, an urgency in his anguish. It’s the sound of a man who’s eager to fall in love and unafraid of having his heart broken because it might teach him something about the person he fell for or about his own shortcomings. Also, he knows he might get a good song out of it. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, “THE TRUTH IS SO HARD TO BELIEVE”) TASJAN: (Singing) It’s all in your head. There’s no race to be won. The world that you’re in is a beautiful one. With the sun in your eyes through the golden haze, yeah, you’re doing all right in so many ways. But the truth is so hard. The truth is so hard to believe. And when you see yourself as somebody else, it’s more than the mind can conceive. But the truth is so hard. The truth is so hard to believe. TUCKER: You listen to Aaron Lee Tasjan and start picking up on his influences - the very tart George Harrison guitar tone on that song, “The Truth Is So Hard To Believe,” for instance. Tasjan lives in Nashville these days, but this Ohio-born musician did a stint in New York City, playing in the neo-glam band Semi Precious Weapons as well as a latter-day version of the New York Dolls. The echoey, sometimes slightly distorted vocals remind me of T. Rex and Harry Nilsson with a hint of Marshall Crenshaw. It wouldn’t add up to much of course if Tasjan wasn’t supply- ing his own original melodies and hooks. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, “END OF THE DAY”) TASJAN: (Singing) Is that the sweet angel I used to know? She traded her heart for a mansion on Music Row. A little devil on my shoulder gives me a smile. And I can’t tell you if he’s been there for a while. I’ve lived on the both sides of the river. I’ve been both a saint and a sinner. And I’m here to tell you there’s nothing you can really say. All comes down to how you’re living at the end of the day, at the end of the day. TUCKER: “Karma For Cheap” is Tasjan’s third album. And as yet, no one seems to know where to categorize him in the music industry. His previous album, “Silver Tears,” earned him a nomination for an award from the Americana Music Association, and he’s played in bluegrass festivals. He’s toured as the opening act for the punk band Social Distortion and, quite separately, for Sheryl Crow as well. Indeed, if you listen closely, you’ll hear Crow singing harmonies on the refrain of “Crawling At Your Feet.” (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, “CRAWLING AT YOUR FEET”) TASJAN: (Singing) Woe is me for my heart is on fire. It burns like a tire, and there’s nothing I can do. Oh, my beast - chain it to the radiator. I’ll show you how it feels when there’s evil on your heels. Crawling at your feet with the hustlers and thieves, come to cut you at the knees - there’s something in the sheets, and it’s crawling at your feet. Every night... TUCKER: I went on a long vacation car ride recently and took along a bunch of new CDs. Yes, I still listen to CDs as one way to get my music. When an album holds up to hours of repeated plays, I know it’s a keeper. And “Karma For Cheap” only grew on me more as the hours went by. This is where the kind of music that Aaron Lee Tasjan makes proves its worth.

    THE BRILLIANT MISTAKES [email protected] • 917.821.6262 THE BRILLIANT MISTAKES’ “DISTANT DRUMMING” SET FOR RELEASE OCTOBER 7 The Brilliant Mistakes—the New York City based band lauded for “restlessy catchy hooks, a clever turn of phrase and frothy, piano-driven pop with heart, soul and smarts” (The Boston Globe) are ready to unveil Distant Drumming, their new album set for release on October 7 on the band’s own Aunt Mimi’s Records. The album was produced by bassist Lincoln Schleifer (Levon Helm, Buddy Miller) and recorded at Lincoln’s Log Cabin in The Bronx, features guest musicians Mike Viola (The Candy Butchers, Walk Hard), Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Paul Simon) and Marc Shulman (Suzanne Vega) and was mastered by Fred Kevorkian (Ryan Adams, The White Stripes) in Hell’s Kitchen in Manhattan. Songwriter-bassist Erik Philbrook describes Distant Drumming as an album that musically and lyrically is about “finding and following the rhythms of your own life.” To that end the band sought to create a more organic album and delved deeper in the studio, experimenting with dynamics, arrangements, atmosphere, instrumentation and grooves to create music not only rich in meaning and emotion, but one that mixes blasts of majestic rock with meditative and moody acoustic pop and folk. The result is a ruthlessly thrilling album by a band that has long flown beneath the radar of the mainstream but are kindred spirits with such contemporaryAmericana envelope- pushers as Wilco, My Morning Jacket and Spoon. Distant Drumming benefits from the evolution of the band’s two songwriters—Alan Walker and Erik Philbrook— into separate but equally provocative lyricists.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

    Robert Johnson, Folk Revivalism, and Disremembering the American Past

    The Green Fields of the Mind: Robert Johnson, Folk Revivalism, and Disremembering the American Past Blaine Quincy Waide A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Folklore Program, Department of American Studies Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: William Ferris Robert Cantwell Timothy Marr ©2009 Blaine Quincy Waide ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Blaine Quincy Waide: The Green Fields of the Mind: Robert Johnson, Folk Revivalism, and Disremembering the American Past (Under the direction of William Ferris) This thesis seeks to understand the phenomenon of folk revivalism as it occurred in America during several moments in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. More specifically, I examine how and why often marginalized southern vernacular musicians, especially Mississippi blues singer Robert Johnson, were celebrated during the folk revivals of the 1930s and 1960s as possessing something inherently American, and differentiate these periods of intense interest in the traditional music of the American South from the most recent example of revivalism early in the new millennium. In the process, I suggest the term “disremembering” to elucidate the ways in which the intent of some vernacular traditions, such as blues music, has often been redirected towards a different social or political purpose when communities with divergent needs in a stratified society have convened around a common interest in cultural practice. iii Table of Contents Chapter Introduction: Imagining America in an Iowa Cornfield and at a Mississippi Crossroads…………………………………………………………………………1 I.

After seeing the brief pilot, Fox ex- ecutives green-lighted the series. Says Sandy Grushow, president of 20th Century Fox Television, “Th at the network ordered a series off of eight minutes of fi lm is just testimony to how powerful those eight minutes were. Th ere are very few people in their early 20’s who have ever created a television series.”20 Family Guy made its debut on network television on January 31, 1999—right after Fox’s telecast of the Super Bowl. Th e show import- ed the Life of Larry and Larry & Steve dynamic of a bumbling dog owner and his pet (renamed Peter Griffi n and Brian, respectively) and expanded the supporting family to include wife, Lois; older sis- ter, Meg; middle child, Chris; and baby, Stewie. Th e audience for the Family Guy debut was recorded at 22 million. Given the size of the audience, Fox believed MacFarlane had produced a hit and off ered him $1 million a year to continue production.

    The Roots Report: an Interview with Dennis Diken

    The Roots Report: An Interview with Dennis Diken In December of last year, Pat DiNizio, lead singer, guitarist and songwriter of the band The Smithereens, died at the age of 62. The Smithereens have had hits with songs such as, “Blood and Roses,” “Only a Memory” and “A Girl Like You.” DiNizio’s untimely passing was not only an emotional blow to the band, but it put their future in jeopardy. In January of this year they turned an already scheduled show into a tribute to DiNizio. At that concert several guest vocalists/musicians joined the band and among them was Marshall Crenshaw. He is known for his hits, “Someday, Someway” and “Whenever You’re On My Mind.” Besides those songs and others he played the role of Buddy Holly in the film LaBamba and began his career as John Lennon in Beatlemania. Crenshaw will be filling the vacant vocalist spot along with the surviving members of the Smithereens: Dennis Diken, Jim Babjak, and Mike Masaros when they come to the Greenwich Odeum on Saturday, November 17. I spoke with drummer, Dennis Diken about what has been going on with the band. Dennis Diken (Smithereens): Hey, John, it’s Dennis Diken from the Smithereens John Fuzek (Motif): Hi, how are you? Thanks for calling! DD: I am good, how are you doing, man? JF: I am good, so you are playing a show at the Greenwich Odeum next week, it’s a nice venue, have you ever played there? DD: It does not ring a bell but it’s been a long time we’ve been touring, it’s possible but I don’t think so JF: Maybe you played the Narrows last time that you were in town? I am not sure, I just know that I have missed your show every time you play! DD: I don’t think we have been to RI in a while.

DESCRIPTORS *Bands (Music); Content Analysis; Discographies; *Music; Musicians; *Popular Culture IDENTIFIERS Media History; Music Ensembles; *Rock and Roll; *Rock Music ABSTRACT Based on the argument that (contrary to critical opinion) the musicians in the various bands associated with Bosstown Sound were indeed talented, cohesive individuals and that the bands' lack of renown was partially a result of ill-treatment by record companies and the press, this paper traces the development of the Bosstown Sound from its beginnings in the nightclubs of Boston in 1967 to its end in 1969. In addition, the paper provides complete discographies, including critical commentary, of records produced by bands associated with the Bosstown Sound. The bands of the Bosstown Sound include: The Apple Pie Motherhood Band, The Bagatelle, The Beacon Street Union, Bo Grumpus, Eagle, Earth Opera, Eden's Children, Sure Looks Real, The Ill Wind, Jolliver Arkansaw, Orpheus, Phluph, Puff, and Ultimate Spinach.
