NEW FROM RHINO HANDMADE: THE MONKEES PRESENT MICKY, DAVID, MICHAEL (Article)
Thursday, May 9, 2013
By October 1969, things were radically different for The Monkees. Their NBC show had left prime time, Peter Tork had left the group, and Top 40 hits were no longer a sure thing. It was in this atmosphere that Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones and Michael Nesmith exerted more creative control to record THE MONKEES PRESENT. The resulting album is one of the group's most varied, from the iconic single, "Listen To The Band," to Micky's anti-war anthem, "Mommy And Daddy," Davy's lush "French Song," and Michael's Nashville-tinged barn-burner, "Good Clean Fun." Strictly limited to 5,000 individually numbered

Grateful Dead: Magical, Mythical May 1977 (Article)
Monday, May 6, 2013
If you're a Dead Head, chances are you've spent many an hour expounding upon the distinction of May 8, 1977, Cornell University, Barton Hall. Well, at the risk of preaching to the choir, we'd like to reintroduce you to a series of shows that matches said greatness from that same gloriously fertile season. While Barton Hall is well known, the astounding tour that surrounded it has occasionally flown under the radar due to the uneven quality of tapes in circulation. MAY 1977 is set to change all of that with a boxed set that zeroes in on this high-water mark in the Grateful Dead's long strange

Aquarium Drunkard Presents: To Willie, Love Aquarium Drunkard (Article)
Monday, May 6, 2013
Last Tuesday, Willie Nelson turned eighty years old. If you happen to have caught him live lately, that might take you by surprise. Willie won’t be the first touring octogenarian — Ralph Stanley’s still on the road at 86; Chuck Berry, who is the same age, is still banging around St. Louis; and Yoko Ono, 80, was alive and screaming on last year’s collaboration with Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore. Even the Old Possum George Jones made the rounds right up to his death last week at the age of 81. But on-stage, Willie seems nearly ageless. His band might have lost a step in the last few years, but

Aquarium Drunkard Presents - Settle Down Easy: (Mostly) Acoustic Dead (Article)
Tuesday, April 30, 2013
We're gearing up to launch a new feature on Aquarium Drunkard entitled 'Dead Notes". In short, the series is an attempt to highlight some of our favorite Grateful Dead moments (particularly between the years 1966-73) in a context that does not alienate, and hopefully educates, skeptics. I.E. presenting this music in a manner that is largely free of the circus surrounding the band: dancing bears, tye-dye, and other various and sundry associated baggage. As a pretty massive fan of the band, it was said baggage that kept me away for years. Stay tuned. Until then, this week's playlist is derived
