Dylan Post #731 So Much Face "Million Miles" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by So Much Face playing "Million Miles"

Thoughts on Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:

From the barren blues of Time Out Of Mind comes "Million Miles". While not a standout on that album, the song was prophetic, hinting at the fantastic twelve bar blues variations that would dominate Dylan's next two releases. When first heard though it doesn't jump out, just feels like yet ANOTHER solid track from the bard that is ripe for covering. 

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:

A New York based rock outfit, this is the first time we are hearing So Much Face. 

Thoughts on Cover:

A gripping blues cover that drips with garage rocking passion. A really cool, slow burning, Dylan cover.

Album Review: Mariachi El Bronx - Mariachi El Bronx (IV)

Mariachi El Bronx

Mariachi El Bronx (IV)

***and1/2 out of *****

Back in 2009 the Los Angeles punk rock band The Bronx decided to take a major detour and dive into their love of Mariachi music with an alter ego band, Mariachi El Bronx. It is safe to say their most die hard fans did not see this side project not only continuing, but flourishing for over fifteen years. Now comes the fourth installment, Mariachi El Bronx (IV) and their deep love of this genre of music continues to mix with rock, punk and pop in interesting ways.

Live Review: ChazFest Goes Abroad - 4/29/26 The Broadside, New Orleans, LA

ChazFest Goes Abroad

4/29/26 The Broadside 

New Orleans, LA

Twenty years ago New Orleans based musician Alex McMurray and his wife Kourtney Keller developed a local music festival, in-between Jazzfest weekends in New Orleans. The all day event would spotlight musicians from their Bywater neighborhood and was named after Washboard Chaz, who would also play with every act throughout the day. This year the festival returned, arriving at a new location, The Broadside in Mid-City, but a lot of friendly faces who played past ChazFest's were on hand to kick off this new era of the all day festival.

Album Review: Charlotte Cornfield - Hurts Like Hell

Charlotte Cornfield

Hurts Like Hell

***and1/2 out of *****

For her sixth studio album, the Canadian based singer/songwriter Charlotte Cornfield deals with motherhood for the first time and the new outlook on life which that brings. The opening "Before" sets the tone as Cornfield repeats the phrase "Real love, no fantasy". The sheen may be off, but the raw emotions are the ones that stick around.

Dylan Cover #730 Carson McKee "My Back Pages" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by Carson McKee of "My Back Pages"

Thoughts on Dylan Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this song:

The original has taken upon itself a cultural importance, and the chorus has simply become iconic. I doubt Dylan intended such, but it toes the line of out and out protest and illustrative questions. He puts down everyone from evangelists to girls, but the language snakes and flows so magically that it doesn't seem as harsh as "Positively 4th St" or "Ballad in Plain D". The sense of exhaling desperation or at least the realization that age confuses things even more seems to be what I take from this tune after each listen, but things can change...or can they?

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:

RtBE has featured Carson twice before in our Monday Dylan Cover series and dig his style. 

Thoughts on Cover:

Mr. McKee is getting better with age, this song is relaxed, lived in and excellent. A great straight ahead cover to start off the week.
