JamBands.com interviews Sharon Jones about 8

Pretty cool interview over at JamBands.com with Sharon Jones. Here is a snippet:

"Before the show we had two, three-hour rehearsals and went through the whole album, but they kept changing what they wanted. Trey has so much energy and he’d say, “I want you to do background on this too.” That happened up until the night of the show when they threw in “Suzy Greenberg.” I hadn’t heard “Suzy Greenberg” before that afternoon. We had the rehearsal that day at Noon or 1 PM, so we go into the hotel to get it ready, and I kept going “Saundra, what’s that melody—Suzy, Suzy Greenberg?” It was really fun."

Beck: Record Club

Record Club: Skip Spence "Little Hands" from Beck Hansen on Vimeo.

We're 5 months into the Record Club project now, and it's time for our third installment.

This one took place last June when Wilco was in town for the release of their new eponymous album. They came by after a long day filming a TV appearance and still managed to put down 8 songs with us. Jamie Lidell was in the studio with me working on his new record. Leslie Feist happened to be in town editing her documentary and heard we were all getting together. Recording took place at Sunset Sound Studios in the room where the Stones did a lot of Exile On Main Street (and looking at the records on the walls it appeared that the Doobie Brothers recorded most of their output there too). Sitting in on drums, we had James Gadson, who's played on most of the Bill Withers records and on songs like 'Express Yourself' and 'I Will Survive.' Jeff Tweedy's son Spencer played played additional drums. Also, Brian Lebarton, from the last two Record Club sessions is back.

The record chosen this time was Skip Spence's 'Oar.' Running sequentially, the first song up is "Little Hands". Our friend Danny Kalb engineered.

For those of you who are wondering what the deal is with this Record Club thing, please read on .

I'm currently looking for the download, when I find it (and im sure I will) ill let you know!

Beck - Songs of Leonard Cohen

This time around the group includes Devendra Banhart, Ben, Andrew and Will from MGMT, Andrew from Wolfmother, Binki from Little Joy, and Brian and Bram returning from the first Record Club. For those new to the Record Club, it is an informal meeting of various musicians to record an album in a day. An album is chosen to be reinterpreted and used as a framework. Nothing rehearsed or arranged ahead of time. A track is put up here once a week. As you will hear, some of the songs are rough renditions, often first takes documenting what happened over the course of a day. There is no intention to 'add to' the original work or attempt to recreate the power of the original recording. Only to play music and document what happens. And those who aren't familiar with the albums in question will hopefully look for the songs in their definitive versions. 'Songs Of Leonard Cohen' by Leonard Cohen was chosen by Andrew from MGMT. For those interested, our close second choice was Ace Of Base, which we'll keep on the list for next time.

Cool Pins from myfe Designs

The gang myfe Designs created several amazing pins! Check them out..

Reba's Halloween Cauldron

Commemorating the Festival 8 Halloween madness, this pin is a 100% original representation of what Reba was up to this epic weekend. Mixing the old with the new (Reba and Party Time), this pin gets to the essence of Phish 3.0. Having been made and printed months in advance, this pin rocketed to legendary status right off the bat, as the boys opened the weekend with Party Time! What a call! Like the weekend itself, the Cauldron represents a mixture of ingredients slow-cooked together . . . with delicious results. Chock full of song references and hidden features, painstaking detail and the most eccentric shape yet conceived, this pin is truly over-the-top.

Reba's Halloween Cauldron, includes:
-Toxic Waste, Some Purple Paste
-A Forefoot and a Hoof
-An Apple Core, Worms Galore
-Reba’s Ladle ("Reba Dip a Ladle")

Bob Lefsetz on Britney Spears and Widespread Panic

"So here’s the part where you tell me what Widespread Panic is missing, how it can be changed into a Goliath, a household word. But the band DOESN’T GIVE A FUCK! Don’t you get it? THEY’RE DOING IT THEIR WAY!"

The Pickles Downtempo Mix - A Musical Story, Yes

My friend Pickle writes: "My new mix: A Musical Story, Yes, is one of my favorite compilations of music I've put together in a long time. The tracks are set up to digest all at once. So if you get a 80 minute drive, long walk downtown, or just a stroll along the beach or at the park; this is your music. Some of the tracks are from familiar artisits, and some are more eclectic. This is a schmoregasborg of different styles of music, while keeping the same theme: A Musical Story, Yes.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together."
