Two recent documentaries throw into sharp relief the different ways the music industry treats Black and white legacy artists. 'Sly Lives!' is an attempt to correct and clarify the record; 'Becoming Led Zeppelin' is an attempt to further muddle it.

RIP Gene Hackman. 10 years ago I wrote a column where I called him the greatest living American actor. I watched all of his movies and came to this conclusion. grantland.com/hollywood-pr...

The Washington Post and LA Times editorial pages have gone full MAGA, MSNBC has purged all of its anti-Trump anchors, and Twitter is owned by a literal Nazi. Here's why liberal media bias is still a problem.

Benjamin Booker at the Crystal Ballroom in Somerville (2025.2). The sound is grimier now, better represents the current moment. Massive respect to an artist that can change their sound and stay true to themselves but still comes back to older tracks in a mode that suits the whole picture

This one goes out to my fellow elder millennials. Bought this off the band at Pearl Street in Northampton (they were opening for someone, Death Cab?). I was obsessed with their next album. Great memories of blaring it out of boomboxes at summer camp. @suchgreatheights.bsky.social

“Cool Blue Night” introduces a ripple of jazz to Silver Synthetic's Cosmic American landscape. With sax & flute, It slinks through the AOR atmospheres with ease. The band’s usual edge gets rounded & refined, sanded down and surf waxed into a cut that’s cured with a California breeze. bit.ly/412Dlry

Interesting speech by Vince Gilligan, who is clearly chagrined over the bad-fan response to Walter White: www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/v...

Just learned it’s Jack Roses bday. Dude changed my life. Hope I live to see his music celebrated more locally. One of the best musicians from Virginia to ever do it. Jack Rose - Red Horse youtu.be/pRVhCusJvfc?...

I feel like I’m watching the same recklessness of financialization, the same dismissal of labor and ignorance of content that tech oligopolies brought to my fields of music, books and journalism, now applied to governmental services. $0.0030 social security payments ahead

Watched this last night it’s excellent. A deeply moving empathetic portrait of one of the most talented musicians ever

If I’m being honest, so much of the new music that gets classified as folk/Americana is boring and cheesy and reliant on ripping off classic stuff. But this one is such a beacon, I would put it in the same category as Joan Shelley, an honest and thought provoking example of excellently polite music:

It's called checks & balances, but there can't be no balances if there ain't no checks, and nobody writes checks no more.
