Random Youtube: The Damnwells – The Great Unknown
ATV favorites The Damnwells unleashed a nice taste of their upcoming album today with the release of the video for “The Great Unknown.” It’s a happy coincidence as this exact song was my favorite of the demos that I had the chance to hear thanks to being a PledgeMusic supporter towards the funding for the […]
Stairway to iTunes
Whether you’ve been seeking to upgrade your collection digitally, fill in some gaps or add some previously unavailable titles to it, there’s good news for fans of Led Zeppelin and related projects. For one week only, the entire Led Zeppelin catalog is on sale at iTunes, starting at $6.99 per album. Additionally, Jimmy Page and […]
Random Youtube: The Fab Faux – Abbey Road, Side Two (Mostly)
Yes, the source for this video doesn’t actually come from Youtube, but I think it fits in with the general spirit of the series – cool and random video on the web that you won’t want to miss. I was on the phone today with my pal Chris Horvath and he said “have you seen […]
Random Youtube: Robert Cray – Time Makes Two
One of the best compliments paid to Robert Cray’s performance at the House of Blues on Tuesday night came from a reaction to “Time Makes Two,” the closing song of Cray’s two song encore. A gentleman in front of me, probably a few drinks deep, turned around and said to everybody within earshot, “I’m gonna […]
Random Youtube: Foo Fighters – White Limo
As our friends at Metal Insider noted, the Foo Fighters rarely disappoint in the music video department of things (and actually, I think they’re pretty damn consistent on the musical side as well). Important note: if Metal Insider is writing about this new Foo Fighters song, you know it must be heavy. And it certainly […]
Video Rarities: Chicago in Amsterdam, 1977
How about some Chicago video that’s even better quality than the stuff that I just posted? Well alright…. This time, our journey will take us to Amsterdam for a short broadcast recorded in February of 1977. Dig.
Video Rarities: Chicago at Budokan, 1972
Growing up, Chicago was one of my favorite bands and I came into their discography at an interesting point, since Chicago 17 was the first album that fell onto my radar. I hadn’t quite learned that longtime fans were rabidly cursing Chicago and David Foster for every minute of both 16 and 17….and what do […]
Random Youtube: Whitesnake – Love Will Set You Free
Arguably, Whitesnake made some of the most kick ass videos during the ’80s. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the Cryptkeeper, er, David Coverdale is back to let you know that “Love Will Set You Free.” The track comes off of the band’s new album Forevermore, which will be in stores on March 29th. With […]
Random Youtube: Journey – Frontiers and Beyond
This is a classic documentary if you haven’t seen it. The doc was briefly available officially in the late ’90s on DVD from Journey before it was pulled without explanation. When I had the chance to interview Neal Schon a short time later, he said (no surprise) that the DVD was pulled due to the […]
