Myron Elkins is one of those guys who seems to have stepped out of another time. At just 22, the former welder from the small town of Otsego, Michigan — closest city: Kalamazoo — drops names like Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, and Al Green when recounting his musical mileposts. But he’s also fully aware that he’s a white man from the Midwest and that any claim he has to vintage soul music goes through one of his state’s most celebrated blue-collar singers.

Elvis Presley’s suede coat from the Seventies, James Brown’s red, black, and gold lame suit, and one of Joni Mitchell’s guitars are all coming to the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville as part of new partnership with the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
Set to open Wednesday, Nov. 2, “Rock Hall at the Ryman” showcases memorabilia from Rock & Roll Hall of Fame members who have played the historic Nashville venue. Along with Presley’s full-length coat (he bombed on the Grand Ole Opry’s stage in 1954), the exhibit includes...

Patrick McGoohan had already starred in All Night Long, a well-received rethinking of Othello set in Piccadilly’s jazz clubs—so why not try again? And so was born Catch My Soul, the Othello story moved to a dusty New Mexico commune with Woodstock sensation Richie Havens as the doomed moor. It was McGoohan’s first and only feature length directorial effort, due, perhaps, to the absolutely abysmal reviews. The film is helped by Conrad Hall’s photography but not so much by the co-stars, a who’s who of 70’s rock artists including Delaney and Bonnie, and Tony Joe White.

Tony Joe White cooks up a slinky disco-country tune with “Alone at Last,” a previously unreleased song from Light in the Attic’s third installment of its popular Country Funk series. Country Funk Volume III (1975 – 1982) will be available August 6th.
No stranger to creating backwoods funk burners, the late Tony Joe White feels almost dressed up on “Alone at Last” by comparison to “Polk Salad Annie.” A taut bassline, scratchy electric guitar, and rubbery disco groove keep things moving, while a shimmering electric piano creates an atmosphere of late-night desire.

The bright horns and slapping bass of Dolly Parton’s “Sure Thing,” the disco harmonies of Conway Twitty’s “Night Fires,” and the swagger of Ronnie Milsap’s “Get It Up” all get their due on Country Funk Volume III (1975-1982), the latest installment of Light in the Attic Records’ compilation series.
Slated for release on August 6th, the 17-track set is the first in the series to include music from the Eighties. Twitty’s Heart & Soul album, which featured the machismo-heavy “Night Fires,” was released in 1980; Jerry Reed...

A native of West Tennessee’s cotton-rich Haywood County, Tina Tuner was born Anna Mae Bullock in 1939 and would go on to become a household name in the Sixties and Seventies, performing alongside her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Ike Turner. Her extraordinary career would take her to the pop charts and around the world on tour, but Turner, who died Wednesday at age 83 at her home in Switzerland, could’ve wound up on a different trajectory with her first solo album.

The inimitable Tony Joe White whips up an epic tale about an elusive largemouth bass in the funky fishing song “Bubba Jones,” the second release from a posthumous new album. Produced by Dan Auerbach, Smoke From the Chimney will be released via Easy Eye Sound on May 7th.
Like the rest of Smoke From the Chimney, “Bubba Jones” was taken from White’s home demos and built out by Auerbach and his favorite session players. Structured around an appropriately swampy groove, “Bubba Jones” recalls some of White’s singular Sixties...

Billy Joe Shaver, the outlaw-country original who wrote classic songs for the likes of Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings and whose “Live Forever” was performed by Robert Duvall in the 2009 Best Picture Oscar nominee Crazy Heart, died today after a stroke in Waco, TX. He was 81. A friend confirmed his death to our sister publication Rolling Stone.
Although Shaver never had much commercial success as a recording artist, he is widely considered among country’s greatest songwriters. All but one of the tracks on Jennings’ 1973 album Honky Tonk Heroes — an early benchmark of the “outlaw country” genre — were written or co-written by Shaver, including its famous title cut. His best-known songs also include “Ain’t No God in Mexico” “I’m Just an Old Chunk of Coal (But I’m Gonna Be a Diamond Some Day),” “Georgia on a Fast Train,” “Tramp on Your Street” and “Try and Try Again.

Mac Davis had a number of his songs recorded by Elvis Presley, most famously the 1969 tale of inner-city poverty “In the Ghetto.” The vivid depiction of social inequality was a Top 3 hit for Elvis and became as synonymous with the latter part of his career as “Suspicious Minds.” But for all its importance to Presley’s Seventies-era catalog, it’s not the best Davis composition that Elvis put to tape.
That’d be “Memories,” a gorgeously mournful ballad about the passing of time and the fleeting nature of our days.

At a January photo shoot for the cover of her self-titled new album, Shelby Lynne was instructed by renowned photographer Amanda Demme to pull the collar of her white turtleneck up over her mouth and nose, never expecting that bit of artistic inspiration would result in an image that’s both striking and unfortunate in its timeliness. Yet, for a mercurial artist who had more than a decade of making music behind her when she won a Best New Artist Grammy in 2001, the creative process has routinely yielded serendipitous results.

Swampy blues-rock pioneer Tony Joe White was playing and creating right up until his unexpected death in 2018, sitting in with everyone from Foo Fighters to Robert Cray. The latter enlisted White for his 2017 album Robert Cray & Hi Rhythm, delivering fierce versions of White compositions “Aspen, Colorado” and “Don’t Steal My Love.” On his new album That’s What I Heard, Cray pays tribute to his old friend with the brand new song “To Be With You.”
It’s a heartfelt performance, with Cray’s gentle guitar work setting a reflective tone.

Songwriter and musician Donnie Fritts died Tuesday at 76. John Paul White, who produced Fritts’ 2015 album Oh My Goodness, recalls his collaborator’s influence and gentle nature in this remembrance.
Donnie Fritts made me cry the day we met.
I’d asked him to be a part of the Muscle Shoals documentary premiere party, and he responded, “Well, you have to come write a song with me first.” To which I replied, “Don’t throw me in that briar patch.”

In 1969, Tony Joe White released what would become his signature song, the grooving, growling “Polk Salad Annie.” A cautionary tale about a Southern girl from a family of miscreants, it’d be covered by everyone from Elvis Presley to the Foo Fighters, who re-created “Polk Salad Annie” with White himself on David Letterman in 2014.

The rascally charm of nomadic country-blues singer Boo Ray is on full display in the rollicking “20 Questions,” the standout track off his latest album Tennessee Alabama Fireworks. A strutting blast of Muscle Shoals R&B, the song teems with bright horns and slinky organ, as Boo Ray tries in vain to fend off the incessant grilling by his rightfully suspicious — and pissed-off — lover.

Visionary record producer, label executive and music publisher Fred Foster, who guided the early careers of Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson, among many others, died Wednesday in Nashville following a short illness. He was 87.
The founder of Monument Records, which released Parton’s first hit single, “Dumb Blonde,” in 1967, as well as Kristofferson’s early country-pop hit “Why Me” in 1973, Foster was responsible for producing a string of Roy Orbison’s best-known songs in the early Sixties, including “Only the Lonely,” “Running Scared,” “Blue Bayou,” “Crying” and the 1964 classic “Oh,...

Singer-songwriter Tony Joe White, a prolific tunesmith whose swamp-soaked 1968 pop hit “Polk Salad Annie,” reflected his Louisiana upbringing, died yesterday, Wednesday, October 24th, of natural causes at his home in Leipers Fork, Tennessee, just outside Nashville. He was 75.
White, who had a Top Ten record with “Polk Salad Annie,” also saw it popularized by Elvis Presley. He was also perhaps best known as the writer of the deeply atmospheric and soulful “Rainy Night in Georgia,” a Number Four pop hit for Brook Benton in 1970 and covered by a number of...

When Dave Grohl filmed the Nashville episode of his HBO music docuseries Sonic Highways, he spent time talking swamp rock with gravelly-voiced singer-guitarist Tony Joe White. The Louisiana native, who died Wednesday at 75, went on to jam with Grohl and the Foo Fighters a few times afterward, including a memorable Halloween 2014 performance at the Ryman Auditorium that found the entire band — and White — donning demonic greasepaint.

"You Are In Love" - Shannon Whitworth: High Tide (Ef Records)
Damn, playing a Gibson Sg never looked or sounded so sexy! Before the press folks dropped her new album on me, I didn't know of this compelling singer-songwriter formerly with the North Carolina outfit The Biscuit Burners. This is my pick hit from her new effort. Collaborating with bassist Bill Reynolds of Band of Horses has given her a chiming folk-rock vibe on her third solo effort. And tours with the Tedeschi Trucks Band and Chris Isaak certainly helped inform her "new" sound.

Two notes, a pinch of natural distortion from an old tweed tube git-tar amplifier, a short harmonica solo, and plenty of boogie chillen groove and attitude. It sounds too simple a formula, but it's not. Need a master of the form to pull it off. Enter veteran roots-rocker Tony Joe White -- 70 years young -- of "Polk Salad Annie" fame who rocks it for 4 minutes and 23 seconds on this amazingly engaging track from his new CD due in September.

Hollywoodnews.com: Before playing perhaps the largest gig of his career, Conan O’Brien played the smallest.
The sarcastic red head, who notoriously lost “The Tonight Show” to rival Jay Leno, continues to tour the country as part of his Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television tour. One of his next stops will be the stage of the massive Bonnaroo Festival in Tennessee.
But before he played that venue, O’Brien rewarded 300 Nashville-based, Team Coco fans with a tiny, intimate gig at the offices of Third Man Records, a music label owned by Jack White of The White Stripes.
“Being in the room was like being in a revival tent. There was so much energy,” Aaron Bleyaert, an official Team Coco blogger, told the New York Daily News.

Pee Wee Herman, Eli Manning, John Krasinski, Max Weinberg and a stolen glass of vodka. All the right ingredients required to have a wild bash with the gangliest, most lovable television personality this side of late night.
It's been over five months since Conan O'Brien went off the air, following a very public dispute with his now-former employer NBC about moving The Tonight Show off its longstanding 11:30 timeslot into the next day. Responding to a groundswell of online support, Conan set off on a 30-city tour, which he's been doing for almost two months now. The two shows he did this week, however, held special meaning both for Conan and his fans. They marked Conan's return to the place he'd thrived in the most: New York City.
