As we all eagerly await Webb's new CD (and by the way, John Fogerty has a new CD, "The Return of the Blue Ridge Rangers" coming out next summer), has anyone found anything new worth buying/listening to. I found these:
1) AC/DC "Rock and Roll Train" (I guess you either love 'em or hate 'em) it's their best stuff since "Back in Black". Nothing like a little basic, high energy rock and roll to brighten up your day.
2) Sleep LaBeef "Roots" What a great thing to see this guy back with a new CD. He does a great version of "Endless Sleep" and "Amazing Grace"
3) ZZ Top live DVD Man, what took these dudes this long to release a live DVD?

The AC/DC cd is called Black Ice: The title track and Rock N Roll Train are both good, but my favorite cut is Big Jack.

Didn't know ZZ had a live one out, I will have to check it out!

Try the following: (Guitar Stuff-Mostly Instrumental)

The Hellecasters
Travis Larson Band
Johnny Highland
Tim Pierce (Has a killer accordion player on a track or two)
Gary Hoey is always good has a killer Christmas record and I like the sound he gets from Strat.
and of course Christy Lane.

I'm not on anything new right now ... but I did get the ZZ Top "Live in TX" DVD back in Ocotober for my B-day ... thought about mentioning it myself on the board.... just never did.... it is a great DVD - love the extras with them talking about their old times & history while playing poker.... classic stuff.

Suppose to get the AC/DC for Christmas from the kids - I think... so I'll hear the other new tunes on there soon enough.

And yes, Gary Ho Ho Hoey is awesome Christmas music - highly recommended.

Black Ice is excellent - well worth a listen.
Also listening now to Dan Baird & The Homemade Sin, Centerline by Warner Hodges and Homewreckers & Heartbreakers by the Quireboys.
All solid foot stomping stuff!

I am listening to the Twilight soundtrack. I think I want a vampire for Christmas.

Judas Priest - Nostradamus album is worth a couple of listens.
Wasnt too impressed with the DC album, but its still better than the last few.
Have you tried the Airborne album - the record DC should have made!
For the indie fans - try 'The Music' new album

Kaiser Chiefs was the latest acquisition.

I like the new AC/DC alot. Love Gary Hoey, Johnny Highland. Got the new ZZ Top Live DVD, its great! Listening to some classic Christmas Albums such as the Ventures Christmas, NRBQ and I gotta say the Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack by the Vince Guaraldi Trio is still one of my all time favs. Happy Holidays!!!

Really want to hear the new AC/DC but, haven't yet. "Consolers of the Lonely" by the Raconteurs isn't THAT new but, is fairly cuirrent and ful of all kinds of stuff. It can be tough to find new music and new artists that ya like but, there's so much out there, I always wonder what I'm missin'. WW

I've been listening to a CD called Clarity by a band called Magic Red and the Voodoo Tribe. They opened for Webb in Chillicothe, OH at the Easyrider show. This guy is an amazing guitarist and a great sound for a 3 piece band.

All the way from the Youuuuuu Kaaay,

Los Fabulocos featurin' Kid Ramos (Nuff said.......)

Tijuana Bible - Jim Suhler & Monkey Beat........

Joyeux Noel to y'all,

Howay The Lads (HTL)

Well I wasn't sure if Webb was much of an AC/DC fan or not, sounds like he may be ... but there is one song that they have - from way back in their early years ... that I love to hear - that would make a great WW & The Beatnecks song live.... I mean it describes them almost to a tee as they say. How about Webb doing - "It's a Long Way to the Top (If you wanna Rock-N-Roll)" Can't you just hear Webb and Bob dueling their guitars in that song.... and the lyrics are perfect for any road warrior traveling band - like the Beatnecks are....

What an encore it would be to hear them play .... would blow the roof off the joint. Think about it Webb - call it a hint, or a suggestion... but I know you guys would make it GREAT.

E

cool idea, E ... of course, they'd probably need George Bradfute there to play the bagpipe solo ..... :-)

AKA:COD Happiness. The sax player from Morphine. The band consists of a female singing bass player, who plays a one string bass with a slide, sax, and drums. Very different and fun. You tube them or Morphine.

Well, I'm a rabid soundtrack collector so I don't know if anyone would even be interested in these, but...

I got the scores for:

Heavy Metal by Elmer Berstein

Batman by Danny Elfman, Shirley Walker, lolita Ritmanis, and Michael McCuistion

Alien by Jerry Goldsmith

One Night With The King by J.A.C. Redford

I adore orchestral scores.

Thanks to Tater, I've just heard my first music by the Bottle Rockets, and I like it!

Robbie Schaefer's brand new release "Strange and Lovely World"

(WARNING - does not resemble AC/DC in any way, shape or form)

Collective Soul is planning to hit the recording studio in Feb.
