50 Years of Blonde On Blonde: A Conversation with Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show

Submitted by Girlofthenorcal... on Sun, 05/21/2017 - 11:52am

Old Crow Medicine Show is in the middle of a tour celebrating 50 years of Blonde On Blonde, performing the album start to finish (and encoring with a few additional Bob songs). The band debuted this show a year ago with two nights at the CMA Theater in Nashville, in conjunction with the “Dylan, Cash and the Nashville Cats: A New Music City” exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame, and they have a new live album out consisting of cuts from those shows. Old Crow is currently half-way through a US tour, then heading to the UK and the Netherlands in late June.

NME THE HISTORY OF ROCK 1965 - New Uncut/NME Magazine with lots of Bob content! Order your copy here!

Submitted by Girlofthenorcal... on Tue, 07/07/2015 - 7:53am

Welcome to 1965. As the year dawns, the personalities who will define much of the music of the next fifty years – be that The Beatles, Bob Dylan, or the Rolling Stones – are all still in their early 20s. They are already working at an extremely high level, producing classic work like "Help", "Highway 61", and “Satisfaction”. In their wake, a second wave of innovators are busy determining their own paths, inspired by the work of others (“they knocked us out” is a phrase you’ll read a lot) and their own unique visions.
