ALBUM OF THE MOVIE, #1. More British Invasion. Took a girl to see this rockumentary in college at @iubloomington @iuunionboardfilms with two or three of her friends and we had so much fun I married her. Not right away. I might be oversimplifying the connection. This here record package is a generous souvenir, with multiple pieces and so much music I couldn’t listen to it all at once today. A thought I had as I was finishing it tonight, listening to the “Tommy” selections, is Townshend is like Taco Bell: his songwriting and guitar work have like 7 to 9 ingredients but he just keeps recombining them in interesting ways. And Moon and Entwhistle never stop doing things. It’s not how rock bands are supposed to work. They shouldn’t be doing so many things. But the more they do the more fun it is. Oh! And Tommy Smothers, who I share my birthday with, starts the whole thing out. “Tommy, can you introduce me...” #vinyl #vinylcollection #thewho #wontgetfooledagain #magicbus #icanseeformiles #happyjack #aquickonewhilehesaway #youareforgiven #pinballwizard #tommycanyouhearme #substitute #mygeneration #ellipticalsoundtrack #treadmillsoundtrack #nowspinning #nowspinningonvinyl (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtKmANInGYI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xogbt1ib2ot3

NOT A CHRISTMAS RECORD—BUT HOLD ON, HERE WE HAVE A CHRISTMAS SONG, no. 5. The Who, Tommy. One year at the office Evan Finch (@shushmuckle) and I and others were prepping some Christmas rock songs to play at a meeting just for fun. We all suggested ones we might do (like, I enjoy singing obscure verses to songs like Jingle Bells [“...he laughed at me as I lay there and then he rode away, oh Jingle Bells etc.”] or the entirety of the very lengthy Old King Wenceslas). Evan said, “I want to do ‘Christmas’ from ‘Tommy.’” And I hadn’t really spent much time listening to those plot-driving songs from the rock opera since college but man, that is one catchy, catchy, catchy song. So melodic, “But Tommy doesn’t know-oh what day it is/He doesn’t know what heaven is or what prayin’ is...” And the backing vocals in the verses of the children being excited, I guess, that barking noise. I think we tried doing that honkbark thing and decided it was too confusing for people who don’t know “Tommy.” As for the rest of the album, some is so great—that off-kilter verse part of “I’m Free” is one of my all-time favorite noises from planet earth. Others, well, they’re plot-drivers but you don’t need to hear anything from Evil Uncle Ernie or Tommy’s bullying cousin or the other characters. Acid Queen is a pretty good rock song but then the “Underture” afterward is interminable. The Overture though is grrrrreat. And Entwhistle’s English horn makes it seem Christmassy! #tommycanyouhearme #thewhotommy #tommyrockopera #thewho #tommydoesntknowwhatdayitis (at Noblesville, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJNTVobrmX4/?igshid=z21i5m12cn7j

Country Standard Time Review

Great review by Donald Teplyske:

“Six months ago, few had heard of The Hillbenders, a rather non-descript bluegrass band from Springfield, Mo. Today, they are garnering more press for their new release than most bluegrass bands attract in a decade.”

Lonesome Road Review

Amazing review by Aaron Keith Harris:

“The HillBenders’ re-telling of The Who’s Tommy, the first great rock opera, shows that bluegrass music is not only capable of doing this sort of thing, but that it is uniquely suited for it.”

New York City Music Daily Featured Review

“And while it’s probably unfair to weigh how much more texture, and dynamics, and flair guitarist Jim Rea, mandolinist Nolan Lawrence, dobro player Chad Graves and banjo player Mark Cassidy add, by comparison to all of Pete Townshend’s overdubs, the ultimate result is that the Hillbenders’ version is arguably even more epic. And what more could you possibly want from a rock opera? That probably explains why Townshend has given his blessing to the album.” Full review: https://newyorkmusicdaily.wordpress.com/2015/06/16/hillbenders/
