Episode #0030 (12/16/2009)

This week on The Hank in Chains Show, we will feature Nirvana‘s new live album, “Live at Reading”. It had been a little less than a year since their legendary album Nevermind had been released, and while Kurt Cobain and company were live show legends in the underground rock scene, mainstream America was still becoming acquainted with the band. This 1992 show though, which has been bootlegged for years, helped to further cement Nirvana’s legend. Considered in many circles to be one of the greatest live shows in the history of rock and roll, it has finally been given the official release it has deserved for years.

Other music this week from: Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Brian McGee and the Hollow Speed, Watermelon Slim, Mudhoney, Loretta Lynn, Warren Zevon, Alice in Chains, Scott H. Biram, Gram Parsons, William Elliott Whitmore, and Joe Grushecky.

This week on The Hank in Chains Show, we will feature The Songs from the Road Band‘s new album, “As the Crow Flies”. While the term “underground supergroup” may be a musical oxymoron, in the case of the Songs from the Road Band, it makes perfect sense. Luckily for us, the hodgepodge of Asheville, North Carolina bluegrass all stars appears like it won’t stop recording or performing any time soon. “As the Crow Flies” is, in our opinion, the best bluegrass album of 2009. You won’t want to miss this week’s show!

Other music this week from: Bruce Springsteen, The Who, Whitey Morgan and the 78s, The Low Anthem, The Gutter Twins, Jerry Cantrell, Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Those Poor Bastards, John Lennon, Joey Allcorn, and The Gin Palace Jesters.

This week on The Hank in Chains Show, we celebrate Thanksgiving by featuring The Beatles 1965 classic record Rubber Soul. While it did not feature any of the Fab Four’s well-known hits, many critics and historians as not only one of the band’s best albums, but one of the greatest ever released by anyone in the history of music. Seen by many as the band’s transition record between their Beatlemania pop days and their late 60s experimental rock and roll gold, it is a pure sonic pleasure. Enjoy a musical feast, with all the trimmings, on Flapdaddy.com!

Other music this week from: Bob Dylan, Fats Domino, Jordan Zevon, Omar and the Howlers, James Scott Bullard, Hank Williams, Tom Petty, Little Richard, Nirvana, Robbie Fulks, The White Stripes, and Howlin Wolf.

This week’s episode of The Hank in Chains Show features Alice in Chains‘ first new album in over 13 years, “Black Gives Way to Blue”. Marred by addiction and the eventual tragic death of founding lead vocalist Layne Staley of 2002, only a few years ago no one ever assumed we’d ever hear from Alice in Chains again. However, after a few special reunion shows, guitarist Jerry Cantrell, bassist Mike Inez, and drummer Sean Kinney got the itch to bring the band back. They recruited former Comes with the Fall vocalist William DuVall to recreate Alice in Chains’ outstanding harmony vocals. People doubted the band, especially DuVall, but “Black Gives Way to Blue” has proven the critics wrong in a big way.

Other music this week from: The Drive-By Truckers, Warren Zevon, Hank Williams III, The Reverend Horton Heat, Eleven Hundred Springs, Gram Parsons, George Harrison, The Kinks, Stone Temple Pilots, Songs from the Road Band, The Black Keys, and Jimi Hendrix.

On July 1st, The Hank in Chains Show will feature BR549 frontman Chuck Mead‘s first solo album Journeyman’s Wager. While there are hints of BR549 in spots, the Ray Kennedy produced album finds Mead exploring his many musical influences. A little CCR here, a little Beatles there, and even a little Springsteen. Yet, the album is a cohesive rockin’ country force, and a record of the year contender.

Artists/bands on this week’s show include: Bruce Springsteen, Eric Clapton, Lucky Tubb, Muddy Waters, The .357 String Band, Louis Jordan, Hank Williams III, Songs from the Road Band, Warren Zevon, The Rolling Stones, The Hackensaw Boys, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Cornpone.
