“So I Want Out” – Booty Shakin’ from Junior League Band
Junior League Band‘s Jelly Roll made our Top 20-Something of 2010 for good reason.

We love Jelly Roll because it takes some chances and breaks new ground while remaining true to blues, jazz, […]

Conan O’Brien & Jack White on Upcoming Live Album

Never mind that original songwriter Tony Joe White got the name wrong — it’s actually poke salet, as in pokeweed and the 14th century English spelling of salad. But who cares; Southerners sure don’t. Nevertheless, Conan’s live version actually rocks […]
