The 2012 album Locked Down by New Orleans artist Dr. John was his 2nd from last release. The Black Keys main man Dan Auerbach produced and played on the LP. No surprise critics loved it, and for good reason. Among his best work, behind Gris-Gris? nitetripper.com |

R.E.M. weren’t the only talent to emerge from Athens, Georgia. The Glands were plying their trade during the 90’s. But following 2 decades of silence, and the death of front man Ross Shapiro in 2016, a new album in 2018 was a surprise. Double Coda a 23-track all original material LP is with us…you won’t be disappointed! |
