Album Review: Various Artists - Grateful: The Music Plays the Band
In a world where virtually nothing is surprising, Grateful: The Music Plays the Band is a nice surprise.
Released to benefit Grateful Guitars Foundation’s music-in-schools efforts, the 17-track compilation features such family members as David Nelson (“Friend of the Devil”) and Oteil Burbridge (“Stella Blue”); tribute acts like Bertha: Grateful Drag (“One More Saturday Night”) and John Kadlecik (“So Many Roads”); and acolytes like Katie Skene and Andrea Whitt, who turn in a steely, countrified “Candyman” that’s among the record’s highlights.
Many of the artists and songs (Dark Star Orchestra on “Jack Straw” and “Morning Dew,” ALO on “They Love Each Other” and Cubensis on “The Music Never Stopped”) are little more than cover bands aping the Dead. That leaves outliers like La Horsa Bianca singing “China Cat Sunflower” -> “I Know You Rider” in their native Ukrainian, Afro Dead’s Cuban-leaning “Dark Star” and Jerry’s Middle Finger offering the Garcia Band’s arrangement of Eric Clapton’s “See What Love Can Do” as the most-interesting cuts.
Alex Jordan & Friends (“Peggy-O”); Michael James Wheeler (“Loser), Doom Flamingo (“Touch of Grey”), Unlimited Devotion (“Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo”) and Brown Eyed Women (“Sugaree”) also appear.
The result is a bunch of good songs for a really great cause.

I know these first few days of Notevember have ended up being very flutey, but how else am I supposed to represent fog other than low register flute tone clusters?

The #1 song from 50 years ago was with Love Unlimited with Barry White’s “Love’s Theme”, one of the few instrumentals to top the charts.

“Mesmo que não dure, mesmo que tudo dê errado e eu fique sozinho e miserável a menor chance de uma vida perfeita com você é infinitamente melhor do que uma vida imortal sem você e eu sei de uma coisa, eu te amo e eu vou te amar até meu último suspiro nessa terra.”
