C&L's Late Nite Music Club: Jon Batiste, 'Freedom' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tomorrow, Sunday, September 27th, I’m going to the Hollywood Bowl with 17,000 other people to see an artist I somehow didn't discover until the last few years. Shame on me. Jon Batiste has been serving up joy his whole career, and I'd been missing out. He was doing it on subway platforms, in the streets, in films, on TV stages, and in museums. And long before any of that, as a kid growing up in one of New Orleans' great musical families. He released his first album at 17, then went to Juilliard.
C&L's Late Nite Music Club: Jonathan Richman, The Modern Lovers 'Roadrunner' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I started researching Jonathan Richman, one of the first things that popped up was the question: “Whatever happened to Jonathan Richman?” It was followed by the answer: “Jonathan Richman is still alive, writing music and actively touring at 75 years old.” That he’s still writing music and actively touring at 75 would have gotten the point across, but the kicker is “he’s still alive." I don’t know Jonathan Richman personally, but I know a lot of his songs, and I’ve seen him perform quite a b
C&L's Late Nite Music Club: Willie Nelson 'I Never Cared For You' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Willie Nelson wrote his first song at seven. And he’s still touring at 93. Abandoned by his parents as a young boy, he started making money as a musician early on, but over the decades he’s worn many cowboy hats: actor, writer, activist, outlaw, philanthropist, entrepreneur, and marijuana enthusiast. When the Internal Revenue Service seized his assets and claimed he owed $32 million in back taxes, he released The IRS Tapes: Who’ll Buy My Memories? That album unironically helped him pay down his
C&L's Late Nite Music Club: Celebrity Skin "S.O.S." (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The best covers don't polish up a song we already love. They stomp all over it and drag out whatever was lurking underneath. Johnny Cash did it. The White Stripes did it. The Dickies did it. And one of my all-time favorites came from Los Angeles glam-punk legends Celebrity Skin. Gary Jacoby and Tim Ferris started the band after Vagina Dentata, their project with Pat Smear, ended. They brought in fellow Germs alum Don Bolles, along with the feral guitars of Bob Haas and Jason Shapiro, and somehow
C&L's Late Nite Music Club Nick Cave: 'Shivers' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Arguably, at 68, Nick Cave is more widely known and commercially successful than he has ever been in his more than half a century of performing. Which is unusual, since most artists barely hang on to any relevance as they age. The many incarnations of Cave have attracted their own acolytes, but his most hardcore fans have followed him from the beginning of Cave time. He emerged with school friends to form The Boys Next Door, which morphed into The Birthday Party, became the Bad Seeds, then he de
