In 1974, according to bandlore, Death was signed to Groovesville Productions, recording seven songs at Detroit’s United Sound Studios with hopes of being distributed by Columbia Records. The band allegedly had a disagreement with label head Clive Davis about changing their name to something more commercially acceptable for the times. In 1976, Death pressed 500-copies of their single Politicians in My Eyes/Keep On Knocking, but found it impossible to get radio play in their native Detroit as disco was ruling the airwaves.
It wasn’t until roughly three decades later that they finally got their due, when Bobby’s sons had discovered that the single had become highly sought after by record collectors, and considered something of a missing link between 1960′s garage rock and the CBGB’s punk scene.The master tapes to those 1974 sessions, which had been sitting in Bobby’s attic, were restored and reissued by Drag City in 2009 as For the Whole World to See

When Jones released his first solo album in 2004, the guitarist had shifted to the more traditional acoustic sounds that Fahey had made famous. Last week Jones released his fourth solo album, My Garden State, via venerable indie-label Thrill Jockey. Recorded in the New Jersey home his family moved to in 1966, the album is full of beautiful, finger-picked, pastoral instrumentals. Let’s check out the homespun video for the track Bergen County Farewell…
Glenn Jones – Bergen County Farewell
Glenn Jones has a handful of dates set in advance of his month-long North American tour, which kicks off on July 3 at The Windup Space in Baltimore, Maryland.

My favorite Page McConnell musical experience outside of Phish has to be the night both he and Trey Anastasio performed on three songs with the Allman Brothers Band as part of the group’s 40th Anniversary Run at the Beacon Theatre on March 12th, 2009. At the end of that evening’s first set Page and Trey emerged, along with guitar legend Buddy Guy, to perform Southbound with the Allmans. Then, to kickoff the second set, McConnell and Anastasio added their talents to otherworldly versions of I Know You Rider and In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed.
The entire run was webcast via Butch Trucks’ Moogis service and clips of all three songs have surfaced on YouTube for our viewing enjoyment. Besides the performances themselves, check out the beginning of the Rider to overhear a sweet chat between McConnell and Gregg Allman.
Here’s Southbound, followed by I Know You Rider and In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed…

We’re particularly intrigued by the fest’s offer for attendees to give a name to a supergroup they’ve put together to play the “Sunday Sessions.” This supremely talented quintet features guitarist Eddie Roberts and bassist Pete Shand of The New Mastersounds as well as Galactic drummer Stanton Moore, keyboardist Nigel Hall and Lettuce / TAB saxophonist James Casey. We suggest “Fucking Badasses On Parade,” but Equifunk probably won’t go for that.
Other Sunday Sessions acts include HT faves The London Souls, The Heavy Pets and The Main Squeeze. And why have one supergroup when you can have two as the M&Ms – a group made up of Moore, Marco Benevento, Robert Mercurio, Papa Mali and Maceo Parker are also on board for Sunday Sessions. Soulive and the Shady Horns with Maceo Parker, The New Mastersounds, JJ Grey with Mofro, Anders Osborne and Keller Williams with More Than A Little are among the acts set to play Equifunk 13′, which takes place at Camps Equinunk and Blue Ridge in Pennsylvania’s Poconos on Aug. 16 – 18.

Shuggie and Frank spent lots of time together in L.A. and enjoyed collaborating on jams. Otis’ father Johnny was another music legend and in addition to being a singer, musician, composer, arranger, bandleader and talent scout, Johnny Otis was also a DJ with his own show on Pasadena’s KPPC.
On a November 2nd, 1970 episode of The Johnny Otis Show, Shuggie and Frank Zappa busted out their acoustic guitars for what turned into a transcendent nine-minute jam that showed off the immense talents of each musician. Take a listen…
