Rock star/supermodel couplings are a showbiz cliché–Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall, Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley, Seal and Heidi Klum, David Bowie and Iman, Pete Doherty and Kate Moss, Rod Stewart and any number of interchangeable blondes, the list goes on.

ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO “Street Songs of Love”

Monday, July 5th, 2010

ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO “Street Songs of Love” lives up to the direct monosyllables of its title, then transcends them. It’s a set of 12 midtempo, clear-cut, guitar-driven songs and a closing instrumental, usually with just three or four chords, in the style that was once mainstream and is now called classic rock. All the lyrics have something to do with love, as Mr. Escovedo sings and shouts, in his thick, earthy voice, about lust, devotion, jealousy, obsession, parental affection and higher purpose. “You gotta have faith in the one you love/You gotta have faith in the mystery above,” he hollers in “Faith,” with one of his fans, Bruce Springsteen belting alongside him.

Two Stars (Out of Five)

Okay, I’m officially embarrassed. I had read so much great stuff about Josh Turner and his latest CD, I figured I’d check it out when I saw it at the local library. What did I have to lose – borrowing it didn’t cost a thing. (more…)

For those of you not aware of this, I have the unique fortune of having two very good friends in some influential situations. The first person I met, then had the great fortune to re-connect with, is author, musician, promoter, and more, Billy James. The second of these unique folks is Doug Ford of RundgrenRadio.com.

But this blog isn’t about Rundgren (I’ll wait for the cheers to subside).

Well maybe now, you brave blogites are forging new paths, lighting out for new territories, peering into crevices where few have crept before. Rundgren has returned to his blues-oriented roots and revived 12 of Blues legend Robert Johnson’s (now royalty-free) songs, 3 of them in a downloadable EP, live and hopefully an album! (more…)
