ALBUMS

"Dig this big band of Southside Johnny..." more

"Dig this big band of Southside Johnny's and their take on some classics from Tom Waits. It smokes, it rocks, it comes completely out of the ether into your ears and makes you a beliver in all the things that music is and promises..." less

"All of their previous albums condense..." more

"All of their previous albums condensed into one rocking pop-rock masterpiece. Get it..." less

"The V5 advance with every release; Fr..." more

"The V5 advance with every release; Fred Lonberg-Holm makes this one of their best..." less

"I can't say enough good things about ..." more

"I can't say enough good things about the balls possessed by these GVSU students and their taking on Reich's masterwork. And they knocked it out of the park! You might want to grab the actual CD due to DL numbers..." less

"I'm not a Deadhead, but the latter pa..." more

"I'm not a Deadhead, but the latter part of this album reminds me so much of the Dead's 'Workingman's Dead' that I call this album 'Workingman's Earth'. It's fantastic and each listen reveals more and more of each song. A great band to see live!" less

"Sonny and his allstar sidemen make th..." more

"Sonny and his allstar sidemen make their axes sing on this great platter. This album is highly recommended to anyone into rocking blues music." less

"The mighty Brotzman roars into his si..." more

"The mighty Brotzman roars into his sixth decade ably grounded by the not-quite-free beats of Peeter Uuskyla." less

"Hands down, this is some of the sweet..." more

"Hands down, this is some of the sweetest and skankiest guitar playing I've heard since I saw Herring play with Widespread Panic at Rothbury this past summer. Kofi Burbridge on flute and keys is just as impressive, as is Derek Trucks trading fours with Herring on two of the songs. *****" less

"Charlie Hunter's fret work never ceas..." more

"Charlie Hunter's fret work never ceases to amaze. Dig the interpolation of Squeeze hooks in "Difford-Tilbrook"." less

"Though this is Gauthier's baby, all o..." more

"Though this is Gauthier's baby, all of the musicians own this music, particularly the Cline Brothers and Gauthier himself. Excellent post avant fusion free jazz!" less
