Currently listening to Johnny Cash in the background while I get on with some marking ahead of the final week of term (the powers that be at the university for which I work clearly don't care about observing an Easter Holiday - though I do get the two statutory bank holidays - so our term rolls right on over Easter). I've also recently been tracking Youtube recently for new bits. I'm a bit of a sucker for modern pop songs recast in an older, rockabilly style. These guys are a prime example:


This one is great too:

Edging into a more modern period, The New Piccadillys (I hope they put out an album I can track down, still looking...) are a recent discovery. Their musical stylings come from the Beatles if they'd stuck with rock and roll, while fast-forwarding to the later sixties and seventies for material. It's quite the mix.

Jimi was a big Beatles fan, I'm sure he'd have loved this:


As was Joey Ramone....


Joe Strummer and the Clash boys were clear indeed that by the tail end of the seventies, at least, "phoney Beatlemania [had] bitten the dust", but all the same...

My wife and I were at this show.
We will be back to see DMB in Mansfield in 8 weeks with our 10 year old daughter for her first concert as a surprise.
