I just have to post this. ‘Twas a good day!

Imelda May on the Grammys and Beyond

Mike Newman — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 16:38:04 +0000

If you watched the Grammys (as I did for some reason), you know that the highlight of the whole event was when Jeff Beck took the stage for the Les Paul ‘How High the Moon’ tribute with an old friend of the Beyond Beyond is Beyond show, Imelda May on vocals. If you missed, dig…

I’m proud to say that this silver-throated Irish rockabilly knockout was on my Beyond Beyond is Beyond show on East Village Radio back in September, so I just thought I’d share the interview again. She and her husband and amazing guitarist, Darrel Higham, also performed an exclusive acoustic tune for us at the end of the interview.

Check out the news piece on the EVR website where there is a link to the interview

I also chose her Love Tattoo album as one of the Best of 2009.

The Velvet Underground and David Fricke at the NYPL

Mike Newman — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 07:36:16 +0000

I went to see Rolling Stone‘s David Fricke interview Lou Reed, Maureen ‘Moe’ Tucker, and Doug Yule of the Velvet Underground last night at the New York Public Library. No, there was no performance or reunion announcement or even anything remotely deep that the VU hardcore wouldn’t know already.

I must admit that I originally bought tickets immediately after seeing these lines on the NYPL’s website, which really painted an ambiguous picture:

Today, the Velvet Underground are the stars they always deserved to be, with a rich and still mysterious story that continues to unfold: in the new visual collection, The Velvet Underground: New York Art, and tonight, in this unprecedented reunion of Reed, Tucker and Yule-the words,music and rhythm of The Velvet Underground.

Yeah, I was thinking there would be a performance…at least for the couple minutes it took to buy the tickets. All that said, it was a very cool night of discussion in which I got some decent pictures and confirmed a few things in my mind…

Lou Reed is indeed an asshole

Lou reed hates everyone except Andy and Moe

Lou Reed thinks the VU was the best band ever

I have a lot of respect for David fricke.

I like to knock VU off their pedestal.

I love VU records and wanna hear one now.

Many great bands go unnoticed…VU is not one, fortunately.

Cheers!
