Look out mama, there’s some greybeards comin’ up the river. They may look like your old hippie parents or grandparents, but they are really one of rock music’s most enduring and consistent bands, Crazy Horse. Playing as if the clock never moved over the last 40-plus some years, it was a treat to see Neil […]

It’s A Bleedin’ Board – Los Lobos 8-3-10
As we prepare for the upcoming blockbuster show at the Wolstein Center tonight (Monday, October 8th) featuring North American music giants Los Lobos and Neil Young, I offer to you, from the big black vaults of musical eclecticism, nearly two hours of soundboard-quality Los Lobos. Recorded August 3, 2010 at the Bowery Ballroom in New York, […]
Neil Young Unearths “A Treasure” On June 14th
Part of the fun, adventure and sport of being a Neil Young fan is that you never really know what you’re going to get from Neil….or if you’re going to get it at all! But lately, there have been a flurry of releases from Young and fans of both Neil’s music and vinyl in general […]
Contest: Win vinyl from Warner Brothers and Because Sound Matters
Having a website called Addicted to Vinyl has its perks and luckily those “perks” don’t involve emails offering me the prospect of kinky nights out while wearing vinyl clothing (not that there’s anything wrong with that). Instead, I found an email from Because Sound Matters, the vinyl arm of Warner Brothers, asking me if I’d […]
‘Cause a Cheap Fix is What I Need
Hey gang, this post is for all of you who, like me, had your concert life torn asunder by your personal life and missed the Cowboy Junkies over the weekend. As unforgivable as that statement was for me to type, I immediately appeal to the greater good by providing the ATV community with a cure […]
Judas Priest: Hell Bent for Grammy Awards
Judas Priest won a Grammy last night for the first time ever. I have to admit that when I heard this, I was kind of surprised to learn that Judas Priest hadn’t ever won a Grammy. And then, I started to get heart palpitations thinking that perhaps the band had won a Grammy for a […]
Contest: Win a Lionel Holiday Train Car from Vapor Records!
My pal Rob emailed me last week with the question, “What would the Holidays be without giving away a Lionel Train Car?” He had no idea that he had just emailed the semi-authority on Lionel Model Trains. While that is a slight exaggeration, Lionel Trains did play a part in my early youth.
New Releases This Week: 30 Seconds to Mars, Neil Young, Kraftwerk vinyl
For those of you following along at home – the closer that we get to Christmas Day, you’ll notice that the new releases will continue to dwindle. But on a positive note, we mentioned one particular artist in the past two updates, and now he’s got himself a Cleveland show booked. So since we’re a […]
New Releases This Week: Tom Petty, Pixies, Neil Young vinyl
Lots of cool stuff this week, with the Tom Petty box set sitting at the top of the heap of all-time coolness. I hope that you guys have a good week – I’ll be listening to this Tom Petty box for the rest of the week, and probably next month as well. See ya in […]
Concert Review: The Bridge School Benefit – 10/24 & 10/25/09
Today, we’re welcoming our good pal Rob Evanoff to the pages of ATV with a review of the recent Bridge School Benefit concerts in San Francisco! DAY 1 – At this time nearly two weeks ago, I was hurtling my German-engineered sports coupe at triple digit speeds over a 343-mile stretch up I-5 in an […]
