In amongst the dross of X-Factor and American Idol the great art of the cover version is being lost. Almost every note of 'Flying Without Wings' and high-pitched squawk of 'I Will Always Love You' by the show's vacuous contestants is another nail in the coffin of the once noble cover version. That ends right here, right now, as Neon Filler honours those in the indie, alternative music world w...

TestosterStones: Tell me, musically what is the finest era of The Rolling Stones?Okay, buddah bing, I gotta say the Brian Jones thing is the thing. We got the zing of dulcimers, the sting of dobros, the marimba vibes and a wailin' sitar paintin' our rage in wood so black its purple majesties cut deeper than the plunk of Rubber Soul.Better than my opinion, in my humble opinion, is the rave react...

*Rating* 9.2*Summary* The most necessary unnecessary album of the year.For all the Rolling Stones have accomplished, and that list is as extensive as the items Keith Richards has personally injested, none is more impressive than what Scorsese's Shine A Light makes clear: the Stones are outliving and outperforming their critics and chroniclers. Their peers had the good sense to be canonized:...

Caught “Shine a Light” the other night. It’s the latest concert documentary to feature what remains of the former “World’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band” – the Rolling Stones. Drawn from two rather intimate shows at New York City’s Beacon Theater during the ex-British Invasion icons’ recent tour to promote their umpteenth album A Bigger Bang, the film was directed by no less than Academy Award-wi...

So I had the opportunity to catch this movie at a special IMAX screening whilst in L.A. for a business trip and had to go...I caught the shows that were filmed for this movie back in the fall of 2006 and wrote then that I should never go see the Stones again, that they could never be as good...I have managed to only see them once since (so far)!If you are a Stones fan and plan to see this flick...

[Originally Published April 18, 2008] The recent release of Shine a Light had all the veteran rock critics throwing roses to the Stones and Scorsese. Others marveled at the Mt. Rushmore crevices on the weathered faces of the Glimmer Twins. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards do, indeed, look about 2,000 light years past "elegantly wasted" at this point—not to mention the miracle man, Charlie Watts, ...

Nasty Music (1973) Unreleased Live 2-LP Set, ala Ya-Ya's Part 1 / Part 2 I've downloaded this fabled '72-'73 unreleased live album a half-dozen times over the years, but this is the first one that sounds like someone finally got it mostly right. Two Lps full of horn driven Stones cast firmly in the Get Your Ya-Ya's Out sonic mold, which means it's far from a perfect recording... and ma...

The Band. John Hartford. Jackie Lomax. Peter Yarrow. Loudon Wainwright. Muddy Waters. Cassandra Wilson. Branford Marsalis. Robert Fripp. The Rolling Stones. R.E.M. The B-52's. Those are just some of the names of the cool people who have recorded at Bearsville. (The list of uncool people is pretty long, as well.) Opened in 1970 by uber-manager Albert [...]

--- - |- In 2008, it's easy to be snide about the Rolling Stones . "They're no longer relevant; they're only in it for the money; they're ancient; they're a joke." I read these criticisms often - usually immediately upon the Stones announcing a new album and/or tour. And after a few too many mediocre albums, sometimes I even utter similar criticisms myself. The last time I saw them, at Ma...
