Mr. O’Grady answered the question “WHICH LIVING COLOUR SONG HAS YOUR FAVORITE VERNON REID GUITAR SOLO?” with a very long, detailed, and well thought-out missive on “Cult of Personality;” for his troubles, he wins a free pair of tickets to tonight’s Living Colour show at the Highline Ballroom here in NYC.Toxteth tells me he’s never [...]

For fans of Living Colour, Fishbone and the whole Black Rock Coalition of the late 80's and early 90's, there is still some very good music happening on that scene.As a fan of diversity, and how it helps strengthen a product by brining in fresh approachs' and a new set of filters, you may find some of these acts satisfying. So look them up, or catch a show if it swings through your town.

MUSIC NEWS - Corey Glover, lead singer for LIVING COLOUR, has said the New York group will release its first album six years. Glover recently said that while "The Chair in the Doorway" alubm (order below thru MNN) marks the band's first release in years, it doesn't confirm a reunion of the group that disbanded 14 years ago, accorging to the Boston Globe. "People are under the mista

The Roots have long been a favorite in progressive music circles because they are a live hip hop band that's not afraid to take on the issues of the day. And it's cool to see them doing what live musicians...

Photo by Greg AielloOn Friday night, Vince and I saw Living Colour live for what I think must have been the seventh or maybe eighth time. And it’s a testament to the abilities of this band that, in a day and age when so many groups are seemingly just going through the motions, we’ve really [...]

Vital, vibrant and burning, Living Colour return with a thrilling fifth studio album. For some of us, it’s hard to believe that it’s been over 21 years since Living Colour kicked in the doors to mainstream consciousness with their debut...

Are Living Colour feeling doubtful about their own identity? The band’s first studio album in six years, The Chair in the Doorway, deals largely with questions of self. “Gonna strip it all away,” vocalist Cory Glover repeats over and over again during album opener “Burned Bridges.” “I am the role I play,” he declares on [...]

I’m auto-setting this post to go up at 11:30 am, because I will not actually be in front of a computer at 11:30 am – I will be doing a phoner with Vernon Reid. Rarely do I get nervous about conducting interviews, but this is definitely one of those times when I’m right on the [...]

...Living Colour dropped this LP back in aught-three when they were "re-uniting" for the first or second time (I forget) and I thought this LP was tragically overlooked because Black Rock was on the back-burner and Bling was king...I liked it though, there were a couple of fine new slices (which I saw 'em perform at the House of Blues on Sunset while covering the reunion for a magazine)...while...

Headbanger's Blog tipped us to the fact that video of Living Colour's entire November 1 show at the Paradiso in Amsterdam can now be streamed for free (below). It's not nearly as cool as the experience of seeing Living Colour live, but in case you've never had that opportunity (or, more likely, wasted that opportunity), [...]

Seriously, I think I can safely speak for both Vince and myself when I say that Living Colour are one of our top five desert island bands of any genre. Everything about Living Colour rules. We've seen them live a bunch of times, and with one very notable exception, they've killed live each and every [...]

You know, it is difficult to describe what a band or album may mean to you without sounding like an absolute stalker. So when we got the chance to meet Living Colour after their show at the World Cafe Live, the best I could squeak out to Mr. Calhoun was how thrilled I was that I had the opportunity to finally see them live. (He seemed to appreciate it.) And I mumbled to Vernon Reid that he's "s...
