The irrepressible George Clinton, likes to paint when he’s not making music. The old music, he says, is ripe for reintroduction to the age group that makes up much of his jam-happy audience these days. “I look around for people popping their fingers. If they ain’t popping their fingers in two or three bars, something’s wrong.”…
For his new album, “George Clinton and His Gangsters of Love,” out Tuesday, the bandleader enlisted the help of Carlos Santana, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and funky recluse Sly Stone to cover the kind of old-school jams the…

For his first proper solo album, John Lennon easily could have rested on his Beatles laurels and put out a safe, nostalgic collection of songs that borrowed heavily from the sound of his old band. But that wouldnt have been John Lennon, now, would it?
God: **** Listen First of all, how about the clever use of gospel piano (provided by Billy Preston) to back up a song denouncing religion? And imagine the shock waves this must have sent through Beatles fans when they first heard it, as…

After a successful career in the music world as the front-girl of Garbage, singer Shirley Manson has now made the leap to the acting world, having appeared in the second season premiere of The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Although it was reported that Manson would be playing corporate honcho Catherine Weaver, we had no clue she would be a T-1001.
“Some terminator action; I don?t know, they don?t really tell us much about what?s going to happen from episode to episode, we really learn on a need to know basis, unfortunately, so I?ve not seen an idea for where it?s going to go. With…

You know what we’re talking about - those insanely catchy rap anthems that run during the end credits of movies, blithely recounting everything you’ve just watched to a drum-machine beat. So, as an ode to the golden days of plot-summarizing hip-hop, we’ve assembled this list of ten of our favorite hilariously awesome end-credit rap songs.
Why We Love It: If there was a lifetime achievement award in the field of overly-expository end-credit rap songs, the first recipient would, unquestionably, be Will Smith, a trail-blazing advocate for the art of recounting movie plots…

Metallica, whose leaked album Death Magnetic is coming out on September 12, launched a promotion on YouTube today that features the band’s favorite covers of their songs that have been uploaded to the site. Drummer Lars Ulrich introduces their selections, apparently made over a two day period, in the video to the right.
Really Old FAN- You seemed to have missed my point, we all have to do something to make a living. What we may choose to do fulfills some need of ours. Some few people want to just survive, puttering around in the shadows, ignored by most…

Listening to these songs will never be the same again.

Hip hop has never had much time for soul music from the early sixties. If you looked in the crates of a hip hop producer, youd think that R&B started in 1966. With a few notable exceptions, Papas Got a Brand New Bag? springs to mind, no classic hip hop breaks came from the first half of the decade.
Slick Rick is an exception, but then he almost always is. “Mona Lisa” interpolates a snippet of Dionne Warwick’s 1964 number “Walk on By.” It’s the tell-off that ends the song, the…

Today, we look back on five musicians who once typified everything that was dangerous and threatening about music but eventually went on to be a sad, soft, shell of their former selves. Hey hey, my my.
Who She Was: Sinead O'Connor? A badass? You bet, once upon a time anyway. There was a time when Sinead couldn't go to the store for cigarettes without coming home with a brand new controversy to be embroiled in. Take her performance at the…
