April 4, 2012 – Esperanza Spalding is a groovy chick. I mean, really, when she’s in the room, everyone else disappears and I’m talkin’ more than that big “love-sculpture” hair. She’s the type of musician you might walk up to at a party, ask about her music, and walk away three hours later regretting the question. This lady has a vision so you better have a seat.

January 23, 2012 - John Mayer has been out of the spotlight since he cancelled numerous gigs last year to undergo throat surgery.

Sept, 2011 – On her third album Colbie Caillat has decided to strategically give us an uptempo summer-vibe. It still sounds like her smash debut “Coco” but this time it’s Colbie with caffeine and it’s positive and fun.

Famous Woodstock Festival Re-release Packed with Never Before Seen Footage The event was well chronicled in a 1970 Oscar winning documentary and now comes the ultimate version of that film, Woodstock: 3 Days of Peace & Music" – the four-hour director’s cut with tons of extras, will be released on June 9th. The limited, numbered Blu-ray and DVD Ultimate Collector’s Edition (UCE) will serve as the ultimate look back at the 31 artists that took the main stage in front of 450, 000 fans in Max Yasgur's 600 acre dairy farm in the rural town of Bethel, New York. This new version will have over two extra hours of performance footage, some never seen before including 18 new performances from Joan Baez, Country Joe McDonald, Santana, The Who, Jefferson Airplane, Canned Heat, Joe Cocker , Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Grateful Dead. Director Michael Wadleigh said, “Based on the vast e-mails and calls I’ve received, many from young people, it’s very evident that people still relate so much to the film and view the ‘60s as an age when anything and everything was possible, mostly good. Many hope for a new Woodstock generation since what people loved back then was spontaneity, originality, innocence and honesty - even in superstars; that’s why Woodstock, with its open and natural philosophy, has become timeless.” The UCE includes another hour of bonus material including a featurette with interviews from Martin Scorsese, producer Michael Lang, director Michael Wadleigh, Hugh Hefner, Eddie Kramer plus some rare backstage clips. – by John Beaudin |
