Waylon Jennings’ Final Recordings To Get Released in October

The final recordings of “outlaw legend” Waylon Jennings will get a release on October 21st. Waylon Forever will feature eight songs all backed by his son Shooter Jennings and his band the 357’s. The recordings on this album were taped in an Arizona pool-house/studio and date back 12 years. After Waylon’s death in 2002, Shooter collected the tapes and provided backing tracks for the songs over the course of the following years. Waylon Forever features covers of artists like Neil Young (”Are You Ready for the Country”) and Cream (”White Room”), plus re-recordings of Waylon’s own songs and one new piece entitled “I Found the Body.”

Conchords, Kimmel, “Idol” Grab Emmy Noms

A pair of Flight of the Conchords songs will compete for an Emmy at this year’s awards ceremony for television excellence. Both “The Most Beautiful Girl (In the Room)” and “Inner City Pressure” from the band’s self-titled HBO series were nominated in the Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics category. The duo will have some serious competition though, as the viral hit “I’m F***ing Matt Damon,” performed by Sarah Silverman and the Bourne Identity star for Jimmy Kimmel Live, was also picked among the five finalists. Another f***ing song was also nominated in the Outstanding Picture Editing of Clip Packages for Talk, Performance, Award or Reality Competition Series. In that category, “I’m F***ing Matt Damon” and Kimmel’s response-song “I’m F***ing Ben Affleck” will curiously compete against the “David Cook Goes Home” segment from this year’s American Idol. AI was the beneficiary of many nods, including Outstanding Reality Competition Program, Outstanding Sound Editing, Outstanding Technical Direction and Outstanding Host for Ryan Seacrest.

The Flaming Lips Rock in 2010 With “Dark Side of the Moon” Show

There is a reason why the Flaming Lips have become one of the most improbably famous rock bands in the world: they are ridiculous. Seeing band ring in the new year at the Cox Center, their home city’s oldest venue for arena rock — in the same room where a teenage version of frontman Wayne Coyne once saw both the Who and Led Zeppelin give lessons on rock showmanship — it’s hard not to admire the Lips’ goofy charisma and general display of balls (both literal and metaphoric). Before launching into

Watch Phoenix Talk Grammy Nod, Inspiration Behind Hit “1901 “

Rolling Stone caught up with Phoenix’s Deck D’Arcy and Laurent Brancowitz just days after the French rockers received their first Grammy nomination in the Best Alternative Album category for their fourth album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. The nod is a rare accomplishment for a band from France — so rare, in fact, that the group were clueless about its significance. “We were playing a show in New York when suddenly the head of our label came in the dressing room and looked very serious, so he told u

Creed’s Stapp Talks Breakup, Make-Up and Shaved Head

In his dressing room before Creed’s first gig of a two-month tour, frontman Scott Stapp was so calm, you’d think the hotly anticipated trek was a victory lap. But he knows they have a lot of work to do if they’re going to compete for their share of rock fans from the Nickelback-Daughtry nation that’s sprung up in their absence. “Right now, we have feel like we have a second chance to make a first impression as artists,” said Stapp, who’s weathered addiction and assorted trials since the band spl

Dave Matthews Band Grab Gregg Allman, New Tunes for Tour Launch

Photo: Ewing/Retna Three separate times during his band’s sold-out show in New York last night, Dave Matthews posed a simple question to the audience: “Who starts a tour at Madison Square Garden?” It was as if it was the first time the Dave Matthews Band had ever played the legendary venue. And from the sound of the first few songs of the show, DMB seemed as if they were genuinely nervous playing in front of 20,000 fans, despite rocking the room numerous times in their career. The group kicked t
