Top 100 Greatest Southern Rock Songs
The southern United States is a spooky place of equal parts back-woods moonshine and old Civil War mystery. From this special, almost mystical place, maybe the best type of rock and roll was born. The southern United States know the blues like no other district in the world – this comes out in simply poetic lyrics and great guitar riffs.

Hank Williams Jr & Sr - There's A Tear In My Beer

To contact us Click HERE
This Western Wednesday post takes us all the way back to 1950. "There's a Tear in My Beer" is a country song written and recorded by Hank Williams, and later re-recorded by his son in 1988. The original version was written and recorded by Hank Williams during one of his Nashville sessions in 1950-51, but he decided against releasing it. It was not until many years later, in 1989, that the original song would get its first official release. (Source)
 

Hank Williams, Jr.'s version is a duet with his father created using electronic merging technology. As the song had been previously recorded with Hank Williams playing the guitar as the sole instrument, his son and his band simply "filled in the blanks" and recorded additional vocals. The music video for the song combined television footage that had existed of Hank Williams performing, onto which electronic merging technology impressed the recordings of Hank Jr., which then made it appear as if he were actually playing with his father. The video was both a critical and commercial success, and was named Video Of The Year by both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country music. Hank Williams, Sr. & Jr., would go on to "share" a Grammy award win in 1990 for Best Country Vocal Collaboration. (Source)

[3] It is also Cagle's final album for Capitol.The song "I Don't Wanna Live" was also recorded by Josh Gracin on his 2008 album We Weren't Crazy as "I Don't Want to Live".

Top 100 Greatest Miami Bass Songs of All Time
Miami Bass Songs is a form of Hip Hop dance with its core roots in Afrika Bambaataa & The Soul Sonic Force's 1982 seminal track "Planet Rock". The style is characterized by raps or instrumentals, a heavy syncopated bass, and features party, message, or explicit lyrical content. Important pioneers include Amos Larkin (the father of Miami Bass), 2 Live Crew, and Maggotron, to name a few. The genre also kick started the southern rap phenomenon. Miami Bass peaked in the late '80s and early '90s with acts such as J.J. Fad, 2 Live Crew, DJ Magic Mike, and Sir Mix-A-Lot. Its last great period was in the late '90s before it virtually went underground ever since."

Top 100 Jazz Songs of All Time  This is my list of the 100 top jazz songs of all time. Before I go any further, I need to make a couple of things clear. First, I really love jazz music. It is an important part of my everyday life and I cannot begin to imagine my daily existence without jazz music in it. However, I am not what you would call a “jazz purist.” I firmly believe that jazz music can be created from artists not traditionally labeled as jazz artists.

Top 100 Jazz Songs of All Time

For example, as you’ll notice on my list of the 100 top jazz songs of all time, I have a couple of artists that might raise a few eyebrows. Artists like Jeff Beck and Frank Zappa. Artists that are usually thought of more in the rock-n-roll realm instead of jazz circles. But the cuts I have selected from them are indeed jazz cuts. They are briming with the very same creativity, passion and inventiveness that made Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong and W.C. Handy the icons that they are.

The 45th Annual CMA Awards gave ABC its highest-rated Wednesday in two years. The CMAs were also ABC’s “best performance” of any night this season and lead the network to win the most viewers during its time slot over the other major networks. An estimated 35-million viewers tuned in to at least some portion of the CMA Awards on Wednesday night.

Fresh off another CMA win for Vocal Duo of the Year, Sugarland says it’s time to take some time off! After a whirlwind ride on the Incredible Machine Tour, and a tumultuous 2011, the duo’s Jennifer Nettles says it’s time to settle down and regroup before making any further career decisions. Jennifer said, "Actually, we’re in the resting process, let me just be real frank. We just got off tour two weeks ago after two years of being on the Incredible Machine Tour and, obviously, after quite a tumultuous year to say the least. And we are taking a few months just to chill and relax, and sleep in our own beds, and contemplate how we want to approach what’s next.” Jennifer will have one more professional duty to fulfill before she can truly take a vacation. She’ll be hosting and performing on the CMA Country Christmas special, which is set to air December 1st on ABC.

Some of the biggest stars in country music came together to celebrate the holidays for Thursday night’s taping of the CMA Country Christmas special in Nashville. The evening was hosted by Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles, and included performances from Faith Hill, Martina McBride, Lauren Alaina, Rascal Flatts, Darius Rucker, Keith Urban and more. Vince Gill was even joined by Muppets star Miss Piggy for a special song. The special is scheduled to air Thursday, December 1st on ABC.

If you can't get enough of Lady Antebellum after the great El Paso performance, catch the trio performing on next week’s Dancing With the Stars finale. Monday, the remaining three finalists and their partners will perform with the winner to be announced on Tuesday. The remaining three finalists on this season of Dancing With the Stars are talk show host Ricki Lake, reality TV personality Rob Kardashian and actor J.R. Martinez.

Bradley Cooper may have been named People’s 2011 Sexiest Man Alive, but Tim McGraw wasn’t far behind.

Also featured in the issue – which hits newsstands Friday – is LeAnn Rimes’ husband, actor Eddie Cibrian, who is in the section "25 Sexy Chests to Be Thankful For."

Trace Adkins has been voted as “Country’s Sexiest Man” by readers of Country Weekly magazine. Trace will appear on the cover of the magazine set to hit newsstands on Friday.

In the back of mind I wanted one of each.” RascalFlatts have other news to celebrate this week as their current single “Banjo”is back at the #1 spot on the country charts.

Just because we haven't had anything suitably WTFish for a while

I present to you a local band, Emory Quinn, performing the Verve Pipe's "Freshmen":




I will confess that even after the first time I heard this (on KFWR, natch), I was not convinced it really existed.  Heard it again tonight, managed to catch the band name, and hunted for it on YouTube.  Someone likes it well enough to have put it up.

It is...different.  I'm fairly certain this song should never sound upbeat.

Update: Erik points out to me that maybe not everyone is familiar with mid-90s alt.rock.  Well, that's your shortcoming, not mine, but I will help you out by providing you with the original version:

You know what's neat?

Little man here, who at this point isn't much more than a sentient digestive system, has all the information encoded in his little brain to eventually be able to sit up on his own, and then crawl, and then walk and talk.  There is pretty much nothing that will stop this progression of events, and little needed to help it along.

Whether you believe in God or not, you've got to admit humans are amazing creatures.  I don't know whether it was (to borrow a phrase from an old song) the Spirit in the Sky who made him this way, or millions of years of evolution--or both--but I do know the end result is awe-inspiring.

 Here is another great Phipps Family LP. On this one, they recorded with Helen Carter, which sure enough shows the Phipps` fondness for the Carter Family. Probably 90% of the Phipps` material was Carter Family songs, so I suppose it was natural for them to try to record with a Carter Family member. Happy downloading!

The video was both a critical and commercial success, and was named Video Of The Year by both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country music. Hank Williams, Sr. & Jr., would go on to "share" a Grammy award win in 1990 for Best Country Vocal Collaboration. (Source)

Little man here, who at this point isn't much more than a sentient digestive system, has all the information encoded in his little brain to eventually be able to sit up on his own, and then crawl, and then walk and talk.  There is pretty much nothing that will stop this progression of events, and little needed to help it along.

Whether you believe in God or not, you've got to admit humans are amazing creatures.  I don't know whether it was (to borrow a phrase from an old song) the Spirit in the Sky who made him this way, or millions of years of evolution--or both--but I do know the end result is awe-inspiring.

This Western Wednesday post takes us all the way back to 1950. "There's a Tear in My Beer" is a country song written and recorded by Hank Williams, and later re-recorded by his son in 1988. The original version was written and recorded by Hank Williams during one of his Nashville sessions in 1950-51, but he decided against releasing it. It was not until many years later, in 1989, that the original song would get its first official release. (Source)
 

Hank Williams, Jr.'s version is a duet with his father created using electronic merging technology. As the song had been previously recorded with Hank Williams playing the guitar as the sole instrument, his son and his band simply "filled in the blanks" and recorded additional vocals. The music video for the song combined television footage that had existed of Hank Williams performing, onto which electronic merging technology impressed the recordings of Hank Jr., which then made it appear as if he were actually playing with his father. The video was both a critical and commercial success, and was named Video Of The Year by both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country music.

I pointed out to a friend on Facebook that the claims of Obama supporting marriage equality are absolute bullshit.  I've posted about this before, back in '08.  The President's much-ballyhooed "evolution" on the topic has finally pulled him up roughly level with Dick Cheney, but for some reason there are still lots of people who believe that voting for Obama is a vote for marriage equality, when he's out there on the campaign trail saying shit like this:

During a live interview today inside the White House, President Obama told MTV viewers that when it comes to same-sex marriage, it would be up to future generations of Americans to implement meaningful reform. 

Asked if he would use his second term as a platform to extend same-sex marriage to more states, the president demurred, saying he viewed it as an issue for the states to decide. 

"For us to try to legislate federally into this area is probably the wrong way to go," Obama told MTV presenter Sway Calloway, who asked questions submitted by youth voters.

I'd say it's amazing how lip service is enough for some people, but the President has plainly given up all pretense of even that.

Naturally, bring up reality to a liberal and watch the goal posts get moved.  This time it was someone else chiming in about the glories of Obamacare.  Seems she's saving money left and right.  It's been nothing but a good thing for her.

Great.  I'm glad.  Really.  After all, she's upper-middle-class, and isn't that whom Obama pledged to help?

Oh, it's not?  He promised it would help poor people, didn't he?  Interestingly enough, it's not the lower-middle-class or the poor people on my Facebook who are singing Obama's praises...it's people who didn't need help to begin with.

Imagine that.  Guantanamo Bay is still open, our presence in Afghanistan has been carried forward for the foreseeable future, warrantless wiretapping continues apace, teh gayz still can't get married, and poor people are still poor (only, now lots of 'em are even more tied to the government, and therefore with less chance to ever get ahead in life).

Yep, definitely a road worth staying on.
