Audio/Video: Savages’ Jehnny Beth Has a Message of Strength – ‘Don’t Let the Fuckers Get You Down’

Savages are an important British band with a killer post-punk sound.

I’ve featured many video clips of Savages over the past seven months

Today I’ve got their trailer for their new single, “Fuckers” / “Dream Baby Dream.”

It’s worth watching and hearing. Savages’ Jehnny Beth has plenty to say, and given the stage of things in the world right now, her message has never been more timely.

“Fuckers” from a performance in Barcelona at the Primavera Sound Festival, June 1, 2013:

“Dream Baby Dream” from a show at the Classic Grand in Glasgow, November 10, 2013:

Audio: Bob Dylan Plays Gerde’s Folk City, April 16, 1962 – ‘Corrina, Corrina,’ ‘Deep Ellum Blues’ & More

Fifty-two years ago, Bob Dylan appeared at Gerde’s Folk City. He’d been playing there since 1961 when, on April 11, he played Gerde’s for the first time.

What’s important about the April 16, 1962 gig is that some of it was recorded, and the recordings are tremendous. They’re great in and of themselves, but it’s also fascinating to get another earful of an artist in transition. And with Bob Dylan, he’s always in transition.

These songs appeared on an official album released by Sony two years ago. They’re on the The 50th Anniversary Collection: The Copyright Extension Collection, Volume 1. Of course that was released as a very limited edition so that Sony could prevent the recordings from entering the public domain in Europe.

Anyway, enjoy.
