Album Review/Interview: JOSH NOLAN

Nolan’s album is a refreshing, much needed nod, to the early rock and roll sounds of singer/songwriters from the likes of Tom Petty, John Mellencamp, Bob Seger and Bruce Springsteen. ‘The Boss’ will obviously be the first…

SOTKF Playlist - Vol 16

Everyday, most of us are constantly moving. Whether it be at work or at home we don't take/make the time to just sit down, take a load off, have a drink, and relax. Hell, maybe that's just me and maybe that's why my musical taste seems to lead toward heavier/faster tunes, ie Garage Rock and Punk. I guess I could've subconsciously made this playlist for myself has a reminder to "slow down" and chill but regardless, YOU ALL GET THE PLAYLIST! (in my Oprah voice) Have a fun and safe weekend, enjoy the tunes - JT Track Listing: 1. 1922 Blues - Charlie Parr 2. I'm On Fire - Town Mountain 3. 40 Days & 40 Nights - Possessed By Paul James 4.

SOTKF Playlist - Vol 15 (TBT Edition)

What uuuuuuuuup!? Whether you’re old or young, this week’s playlist will take you back in time; It’s a throwback to classic rock! Beards, long hair, bandanas, tight jeans, and lots of alcohol…wait, that could describe this decade and most of my musician friends BUT most of them weren’t even thought a yet; their parents were too busy partying and listening to these bands! OH! and before anyone makes a comment: NO. I do not think (by any means) that these are the top 20 “classic rock” songs ever nor would I even try to do a “best of” genre type list. I simply picked 20 songs (I limit most of my playlists to the same) that flow well together; according to my ears :) Enjoy it.. or not, YOU have to live with that decision! - JT

Track Listing: 1.Allman Bros – Whipping Post 2.CCR – Travelin’ Band 3.Derek & The Dominos –Layla 4.Pink Floyd – Money 5.Steve Miller Band – Rock’n Me 6.The Doors – Roadhouse Blues 7.Ted Nugent – Stranglehold 8.The Eagles – Life in the Fast Lane 9.Foghat – Slow Ride 10.The Animals – House of the Rising Sun 11.Led Zeppelin – Immigrant Song 12.Buffalo Springfield – Mr. Soul 13.Fleetwood Mac – Go Your Own Way 14.Joe Walsh – Rocky Mountain Way 15.Eric Clapton – Cocaine 16.Rush – Tom Sawyer 17.Fleetwood Mac – Second Hand News 18.Rolling Stones – Gimme Shelter 19.Lynyrd Skynyrd – The Needle & The Spoon 20.Bruce Springsteen - Jungleland

SOTKF Playlist - Vol 12

So last week I decided to try my hand at a metal playlist & I think it turned alright, but metal isn't really my "expertise." Luckily, I have a friends (a lot apparently) who are metalheads and didn't hesistate to help with that playlist; preeshate y'all! However, the genre (I hate the way that word piegeon hole's music) that rolled with this time around tends to be my favorite and therefore was rather easy to produce the "playlist of perfection." :-) If you don't dig this one you're dead inside... - JT Track Listing: 1) Glossary - Nothing Can Hurt You Now 2) Slobberbone - Gimme Back My Dog 3) Lucero - Chain Link Fence 4) Truckstop Coffee - 16 Ounces 5) Lauderdale - Stars Fell 6) Ned Van Go - Take Ya Home 7) Drag The River - History with History 8) Doc Dailey & Magnolia Devil - Sunday School 9) Patterson Hood - I Understand Now 10) Arliss Nancy - GB: The True Story 11) Lee Bains III & The Glory Fires - Magic City Stomp! 12) Cory Branan - She's My Rock-n-Roll 13) Bohannons - The River Above 14) Those Crosstown Rivals - Bad Nassty 15) Todd Farrell Jr & The Dirty Birds - Year in Review 16) I Can Lick Any SOB In The House - Mayberry 17) The Dexateens - Naked Ground 18) J Roddy Walston & The Business - Sweat Shock 19) Matt Woods - Wrong Turn Blues 20) Drive-By Truckers - Strutter (KISS cover) Playlist Link: http://open.spotify.com/user/1214727292/playlist/6Mkd2Xe5wERdCvrbBHfFoy ***I know I originally said a new playlist every Thursday but that obviously ain't gonna happen!
