  THE POWER OF POP — Authority: 130
  PLASTICSOUL Peacock Swagger (Self-released) A little bit of pop trivia before we begin. “Plastic Soul” is of course, a term originally coined by an unknown black musician to describe Mick Jagger.

• The Revival Tour – San Francisco, CA – 11/6/09

  
  Twang Nation — Authority: 407
  Me and many others have drawn a crooked, dirty line from old-time country, mountain and folk music to punk music. Working class themes punctuated by simple rhythms defined more by passion then artistry While I consider myself a music fan, I know next to nothing about current punk (or post-punk) bands, so I took it on ...

• Thankful For The Music

  
  Twang Nation — Authority: 407
  Okay, I got a lot of hits and responses to my post on the dismal glitter parade that was the Country Music Awards. I’m encouraged that it was almost universally positive, though some was not (when will people get that just because I don’t like Taylor Swift’s songs or music I am not opining on her as a person? ...

  Twangville — Authority: 419
  Maybe it’s due to the drastically large volume of talent here in Texas, or maybe it’s becaus I can often be clueless, but many times, I feel like I am way behind when it comes to certain artists that I finally get around to “blogging” about.

• Danny Barnes – Pizza Box

  
  Twangville — Authority: 419
  I miss John Hartford.  He had a rare combination of incredible musicianship, a sly sense of humor, and an unmatched story-telling ability.  The result were songs that were fun: fun to listen to, fun to sing along with, and no doubt fun to perform.  There’s a lot of that fun in Danny Barnes’ latest release, ...
