Scott Miller/The Gougers - Live At Stubbs BBQ Austin TX 6-7-07


Speaking of BBQ.....here's a cool show of one of my new favorites opening for one of my old favorites. That's right, The Gougers opening for Scott Miller. This is a nice boot. The Gougers set is damned good (except for the partial Manheim Station), and the Scott Miller set is on par with his latest live album (though not mastered near as well....as expected). It's nice to hear some old V-Roys songs out of Scott too. This set actually reminds me of both Reconstruction and the V-Roys live album "Are You Through Yet?" as it includes the aforementioned V-Roys songs and one of my fave covers he does, Neil Young's "Motion Pictures".

speaking of Ray Wylie

Here's a nice little interview from this past August.



Can't wait for that new album....and a live version of Snake Farm wouldn't be too bad either. That's his son playing with him BTW. Some pretty good licks coming out of that young man. I'm excited about a new Ray Wylie album I tells ya

Ray Wylie Hubbard - Hideaway BBQ Raleigh NC 10-12-07


Here's some new Ray Wylie. Not the greatest recording in the world, but listenable. What's nice is the couple of new songs he throws in. And man the cover I made makes me huuuungry. Anybody else out there a fan of carolina style BBQ. If your not familiar with carolina style BBQ, it's smoked dry, pulled, put on a bun, then you douse it yourself with your favorite vinegar sauce....which consists of tomato-y vinegar or vinegar-y vinegar (Lexington sauce....with spices). Top it off with some slaw on top.....it's the only way to eat a BBQ sammich I tells ya.

RE-POST: Todd Snider - Tales From Moondawg's Tavern

I've said it before and I'll say it again....this is potentially the greatest bootleg of all time, and certainly the best thing to ever grace the pages of this site. Had a request for this so it's about time I re-upped it. This thing is phenomenal....if your not already a Todd Snider fan then just listen to this. If this doesn't capture your fancy, then i don't know what the hell you doing here.

the results are in...

Well, looks like there is a landslide victory for Sharebee and split files. That is what I will continue to do from now on. One thing this affects is that anytime I need to split a file it will have to be in RAR format.

I've been on the lookout for the bonus tracks to The Search, the ones that are only available through iTunes, not the bonus disc from Best Buy. And am I the only one who finds it ironic that on a disc where Farrar is railing agains commercialism he has these sweet deals that screw the fans with iTunes and Best Buy?

Anyway, if any of you fine readers know where I might find these extra tracks, please post.

Thanks,
TS

a truer caucus pt. I

So I've been mulling around a couple ideas thanks to some of you's guy's suggestions and comments. Here's the dilemma. I'm having a hard time finding a good 100mb+ file hosting service. I refuse to pay for such a service so that's off the table. I've been using Sharebee which works great for sub 100mb files and sharebig which is not so great for the larger ones.

You'll notice a hot new voting tab which your voice can be heard. The options are to use Sharebee but split the files into part1, part2, etc. Continue using sharebig which is flaky. Or start using a Bit Torrent, which is super easy for me cause I don't have to upload anything, just get it ready and post a link to the torrent file. Now the pros and cons of this are as follows: Pros - potentialy more frequent posts, potentialy longer seed times (you guys will control that), more downloads, it's free. Cons - first few people to download will be slow (I'm firewalled)

so there it is, vote early vote often.

Really diggin' these guys



It's The Gougers from Austin, the song here is called Old Crow/Scarecrow. Listen to the words, man that's some good writing. It's off their new album is called Long Day for The Weathervane, and it's one of the best of 07 for sure.

Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue - New Orleans 5-3-76


Here is a fantastic little bootleg. A Bob Dylan Rolling Thunder Revue show from 1976 in it's entirety. The mid 70's has always been my favorite Dylan era, so this is a special treat for me as well. Plus look at all those guests.....Bob Neuwirth (who assembled the Revue), Roger McGuinn, Kinky Friedman, T-Bone Burnett, Joan Baez, and Dennis Hopper....bet that was a hell of a party.
For some reason I made the covers blue but they came out tan when I posted them....oh well, I think I like the tan better anyway. Don't like what it did to Bob's picture on the back cover, but hell I don't feel like redoing it. Enjoy this guys, cause I know I am.

MP3 @ 192
(I guess now would be a good time to say I plan on making all the shows I post on here @ 192 while if it's a mix it will still get the 128 treatment.....call it a new years resolution)
