The Donnas  Mar 14, 2008, By David Simons In reality, it's everything the Donnas aren't that makes them so appealing. Despite what the suggestive pix and lurid song titles (“Gimme a Ride,” “Hot Pants”) might have you believe,...

Send in the Clones  Mar 14, 2008, By David Simons Welcome to the world of the tribute band, a unique form of musical idolatry that's been a noble pursuit for thousands of talented imitators for years. Tribute acts come in a variety of shapes, sizes,...

Five-String Wizard  Mar 13, 2008, By Jon Chappell Béla Fleck has made a career of dashing expectations about what can be done with a few strings tuned to an open G chord. He's assimilated classical music by producing note-for-note banjo transcriptions of Bach ...

Everything Must Groove  Jan 10, 2008, By Ken Micallef Interviewing Steely Dan's Walter Becker and Donald Fagen is a lot like playing a verbal pinball machine: their answers change direction with a comic, if disorienting, suddenness — deflecting the thrust of a question and bouncing up against an array of societal, historical, and musical references. ...

Hell on Stage  Jan 10, 2008, By Jeff Perlah The Abbott household must have been a noisy place back when Dimebag Darrell (known just as Darrell in those days) and his brother Vinnie Paul were growing up, because both started out playing drums. That situation didn't last, though ...

Raising the blood pressure of mainstream society with putrid imagery and ever-mutating personae is what Marilyn Manson does. And it doesn't happen by accident...

Carlos Santana's Magic Touch  Jan 10, 2008, By Blair Jackson For over 30 years, through countless band lineups, the essential character of the Santana group has remained unchanged because Carlos himself is unchanged. He still burns with the same passion that blew people away in his career-making appearance in the film Woodstock. ...

B.B. King  Jan 10, 2008, By Sean S. McDevitt More than five decades after leaving his Mississippi home for a life on the road, the blues guitar legend B.B. King has transcended the music genre with which he is so readily associated. Calling him the King of the Blues no longer seems to do him justice...

The Road Goes On Forever  Jan 10, 2008, By Jeff Perlah Despite a history of tragedy and turmoil, the Allman Brothers Band keeps doing what it does best — playing live....
