I heard a song by Judge Smith called “Carpet Tile” (who would have thought a song about carpet tile would be interesting) and I heard a song by Robert Mullins called “Judgment Day”. While one is a pub song about the demise of the English economy after Margaret Thatcher and the other is a southern rock song about the treachery of West Virginia mining companies, they have one thing in common: they tell a story.

That got me thinking about dirty songs in general and the history of these types of songs. Over the last 20 years or so there has been a great restoration movement to restore and recover music from the great blues and swing players of the early 20th century. Within these catalogs of restored music there is an abundance of music that is...

It’s not often a new band comes along with a fresh sound that takes up the rock n roll flag and runs with it. You may have heard their sound before, but you have never heard Fools for Rowan. Just like you heard rock n roll before Led Zeppelin, they just put it in a whole new dimension. I’m not saying Fools for Rowan is the “new” Led Zeppelin, I’m saying that Fools for Rowan will help you appreciate music again after all the tired and warn out corporate pop or untalented...
