Did you know that singer Alex Chilton of the Box Tops who penned the famous song The Letter had a much revered band in the 70’s called Big Star?

Vancouver talk radio time filler memories.

Newly released song from Lili Hiatt. John Hiatts daughter. Nice song

This is great - one of the best covers I've heard in a long time.

Neil can't,make up his mind what he believes. he's been all over the map politically and loudly so. We can't forget his right wing libertarian phase in the early eighties, nor his pro war 'anthem' in the early nineties. I like his music but I wish he could keep his yap shut.

Anyway...this is pretty great..

"Let's Roll" is pro war? It's a tribute to flight 93, not a call to war.

LOL you're right. I was tricked by the title and the 'crushing satan' stuff ( I had stopped listening to new music years prior and had heard ol' Neil was writing pro war songs which didn't surprise me considering his ever changing political positions).

Anyway he did turn war hawk after 9-11 for a time and he for sure became a sort of anti government, anti union right wing libertarian around the end of the seventies and into the early Reagan years and it really pissed his fan base off. I think he just reacts emotionally to whatever is going on at the moment.
