The nineties were a pretty fun time for music. That included the swing revival movement, in which young bands were suddenly embracing the dance music of the 1930’s and 1940’s. With lots of horns and costumes and songs about drinking…what was there not to love? Of course it was a fad that didn’t survive to the 2000’s, but don’t you dare tell that to Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. Formed at the very birth of the swing revival in 1989, this band continues to this day reminding folks of what was so much fun in the years that predated rock and roll. Americana Deluxe is their second album, and it proved to be their biggest success. By the time of their next record a year later, swing was already starting to fade back into nostalgia. But in 1998, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy was at the center of a thriving musical movement.

This band was a one hit wonder…almost. Their only released single, “You And Me And The Bottle Makes 3 Tonight (Baby)” failed to crack the top 100, but the band was pretty well known in the late 90’s, thanks to some TV appearances and as a bar band in the film Swingers. But Big Bad Voodoo Daddy were not alone as swing renovators, sometimes being lost in the crowd of bands like Squirrel Nut Zippers, Cherry Poppin’ Daddies and The Brian Setzer Orchestra, all of whom did it just a bit better than the Voodoo Daddys did. So, this music is well played, but somewhat less memorable. Kudos to this band for still playing the music that they love, but their days in the spotlight, which were short, have long since passed. This is the album of theirs to have, and it’s okay and entertaining…but it won’t blow your socks off.

During the 1990’s, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin got together and made a pair of albums. The first, No Quarter, was a live album rehashing some old Zeppelin favorites and adding some new material. It was piled high with strings, and was conspicuously missing bassist john Paul Jones, one of the main writers of the title track. The second album, Walking Into Clarksdale, is all new material, heavier, with fewer strings…and still without John Paul Jones. Why the pair chose to record these albums without him is a mystery…but they are as close to a recorded Zeppelin reunion as we ever got. And for that alone, this album is worthwhile.

No Quarter gets the attention, but Walking Into Clarksdale is a truer measure of where the pair had come to in the years since the death of John Bonham. Page’s career had sputtered, while Plant had success as a solo artist. Together, they proved that they were still a pretty powerful team. Page still had at least a few riffs left, and Plant could still bring the voice. Walking Into Clarksdale is no Physical Graffiti: it’s not even In Through The Out Door. But, it’s better than Coda, and it’s good to see the old masters could still bring it.

1977-POLYDOR

2. Backwater
3. Kurt’s Rejoinder

7. Julie With…
8. By This River

As weird and experimental as the music of former Roxy Music keyboardist Brian Eno can be, Before And After Science is a surprisingly pop-friendly album. His vocals are surprisingly good (a lot like David Byrne), and his use of guest musicians is nice as well, with members from Genesis, Roxy Music, Fairport Convention, Free and King Crimson on board. The album took two years to record, and was done while Eno was recording other more ambient albums.

The great thing about this album is that it sounds more like a 2012 recording than 1977. For a 35 year old record to sound completely modern is quite an achievement, which Eno pulls off nicely. This is maybe his best album, and by far his best collection of non-ambient songs.

I have three words of advice to ANY band…I don’t care who you are…that wants to have a reunion. DON’T. DO. IT. Eagles broke up in 1981 amid huge differences of opinions, over inflated egos, and being bigger and more famous than any of them could handle…even Joe Walsh. They had always been critically hammered but loved by their fans. They oh so famously announced when they split that they would play together again “when hell freezes over”. So, really…who didn’t see this coming? Don Henley and Glenn Frey spent 13 years hating each other from afar, but apparently that hate wasn’t paying the bills, so they decided to MAKE hell freeze over. Granted, there is no JD Souther here, no Randy Meisner…and barely a trace of rock to be found.

The first four tracks are new studio recordings, one of which (“Get Over It”) was a minor hit, and another, “Love Will Keep Us Alive”, wasn’t written by any of the band members, but did establish them as top players in the always boring genre of adult contemporary. Beginning with “Tequila Sunrise”, the tracks are recorded live at Burbank Sound Studios. All are Eagles oldies (with the exception of Henley’s sappy “New York Minute” from his solo album End Of The Innocence), and all, except for “Life In The Fast Lane”, are dreary remakes of their hit ballads. The high note, “Hotel California”, never rocks, but features impeccable harmonies and perfect sound, bringing back to mind that the 1981 album Eagles Live was likely the most overdubbed live album in history. This album announces that the band is back, and that they are most certainly NOT here to rock you, ever again. Watch the DVD (it features a cleverly separated version of the always oversung “Seven Bridges Road”) as it’s very nice looking and sounds great on your surround system. Stick with the older albums, if you need to.

Aside from Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley, Drive-By Truckers has always been a fluid band with ever changing personnel. Their longest continuous lineup was the one that played on this, their second live album, Live From Austin, TX. This album does not feature Jason Isbell (who left in 2007), but it does do a magnificent job of capturing what the Truckers are like in a live setting. The package includes a CD and a DVD of the show, which relies heavily on tracks from the band’s most recent at the time studio album, Brighter Than Creation’s Dark. The three guitar interplay between Hood, Cooley and John Neff (who also provides some fine moments on pedal steel) is great, as is the bass playing of Shonna Tucker. Hood shows his fine stage presence and storytelling ability, while Cooley is just that...tall, cool, and a guy who over the years has turned into a hell of a songwriter.

While many of the songs here are newer, the centerpiece of the album is an almost 12 minute version of Hood’s “18 Wheels Of Love” from their debut album, Gangstabilly. Hood also shines on “Puttin’ People On The Moon” and “The Living Bubba”. Cooley’s highlights are the excellent “A Ghost To Most”, “Zip City”, and the acoustic opener “Perfect Timing”. Tucker sings one, the fine and underrated “I’m Sorry Huston”. The energy is all here, along with the songs that make this band such a concert favorite. But you have to get this with the DVD, which makes the CD almost redundant. The Truckers are still at it, even though Tucker and Neff are gone, bringing the band down to two guitars, but they still do not disappoint. This live album stands alongside the rest of their output very well, and should be a must have for fans…and a good introduction for those who haven’t caught on to DBT just yet.

1997-LOST ART

16. SST Superstar: Charles Manson Closing Credits (Theme)

One night in Hermosa Beach, I met a guy named Jeff Farley of April's Dad at an open mic night. He wanted to audition to be the keyboard player in my band. That didn't work out, but he did introduce me to a strange duo called Ultraviolet Eye. They are fairly famous in Belgium, and have been heard mostly on compilation albums and college movie soundtracks. Jeff Charreaux and Roy Appleman have a definite sense of humor, and a style of their own. Heroin Geek (I don't think there was ever a movie) contains a few great moments. The title track is top notch, but the best songs are the covers. "How Soon Is Now" is a fine Smiths cover. "Godzilla" literally melds the Blue Oyster Cult songs and "Smells Like Teen Spirit" into one, and "Smoke On The Water" is sung in...German?

Unfortunately, the album is longer than it should be, and the Eye runs out of ideas kind of quickly. All in all, a quirky but not great indie release with a few shining moments...just not enough of them.

6. Your Emotions
7. Chemical Warfare
8. California Uber Alles

Relentlessly fast, unwaveringly political and snotty as hell are some of the best things about the best of punk, and Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables, the debut album of American punk band Dead Kennedys, has all three with ease. For these reasons, the band and the album are viewed as highly important documents in punk history. But, the album does come with flaws, and can be a difficult listen because of those flaws. The star of the show is singer Jello Biafra, a man with political convictions reminiscent of those of the Sex Pistols, American style. Because of the political nature of the songs, it can sound a bit dated, but some of the messages (“Kill The Poor”) still resonate today. Biafra is dead on with some of these songs, the best of their career…”When Ya Get Drafted”, “Chemical Warfare”, and “California Uber Alles” are some of the best punk songs ever written.

So, what goes wrong here? Mostly, it’s the music. Relentlessly fast can be a blessing, but in this case, it’s more of a curse. It’s especially glaring when Biafra isn’t singing…the band eschews any kind of emotion for what is simply raw speed, and it makes for a tedious listen at times. As excellent as many of these songs are, they lose a lot of their power by being imply hammered out at lightning speed without any kind of variation. It’s unfortunate, because this could have been the greatest of all American punk albums. Instead, you’ll need to take this in small doses or it might just put you to sleep. They only made three more albums before disbanding in 1986, with none of the three having the songwriting that’s featured here. Overall, this is the Dead Kennedys album to have, a landmark of American punk, but an album with flaws that almost kill the experience. Almost.
