Earlier in the year we had a new record from John Prine. Now, coming in October, we will be treated to yet another sure to be first class album from John Prine, The Eclipse Sessions.

Video of the Day: Kevin Gordon – Saint On A Chain
Tilt and Shine, the latest album by Kevin Gordon is a storytellers paradise. With his songs covered by the likes of Irma Thomas, Southside Johnny and Levon Helm, this one just might put him on the map.
Live Video of the Day: The Rolling Stones – Honky Tonk Women (Live ’99)
In his absolute prime, Mick and the boys hold court on the No Security tour, San Jose, Ca 1999.
Song of the Day: Tony Bennett & Diana Krall – Fascinating Rhythm
The new record, Love Is Here To Stay is out soon. In the meantime, check out this one from the duo.
Video of the Days: Spider Bags – Oxcart Blues
The album comes out tomorrow, but in the meantime feast your ears on the first single to be released.
Video of the Day: Cowboy Junkies – All That Reckoning, Pt. 1
The Cowboy Junkies are back and yes, better than ever. The new record, All That Reckoning, is dark in places, dense in others, and always brilliant. This one ranks among there best.
Video of the Day: Smash Fashion – Wicked Ways
This band sounds like the CD and digital era never existed and record companies ruled the music universe. Their new record, the eclectically named Rompous Pompous, is not out yet, but it is destined to be a doozy. In the meantime, here is something from a few years back. Glam on my friends.
Video of the Day: Black Coffee – I Barely Know Her
This hard Rocking three piece makes no apologies for being retro rockers. Whether it early Guns ‘N’ Roses, mid-era AC/DC or any vintage of Led Zeppelin these guys ride the hot tub time machine all the way back to the early 70’s.
Live Video of the Day: Chris Stapleton – Amanda (Live at the Grand Ole Opry)
Chris and Morgane Stapleton absolutely tear up the Waylon Jennings classic live and on stage at the Grand Ole Opry. Just seeing Chris Stapleton without a hat on is worth the price of admission alone.
Video of the Day: Foxy Shazam – Tragic Thrill
If you are wondering what happened to Foxy Shazam, after their break though album, The Church of Rock & Roll, they broke with their major label and were on a forced hiatus and eventually disbanded in 2014. RIP Foxy Shazam, come back soon.
See the message from the band on their web site October, 2014:
After more than ten years of our lives completely revolving around Foxy Shazam, it is time to disband for an unknown amount of time. Performing more than two thousand shows together around the world has been life changing, but also has kept us from spending time with our families and pursuing our own passions and ways to grow individually as artists.
It has been an honor sharing ourselves and our music with all of you. Thank you to all of our fans, family, and friends that have supported us through everything to make this previous decade the best times of our lives.
We truly believe there is a future for Foxy Shazam, that our best art is yet to come. We don’t know how long this will take but we plan on someday returning more powerful than ever.
Foxy Shazam
