TIME FOR CLUTCH TO GET A BREAK

COMMERCIAL radio is doing its best to kill off rock 'n' roll, replacing it with self-indulgent alt-rock, candy pop and generic rap. But rock ain't dead yet - not if Clutch has anything to say about it. A cult band popular among in-the-know college...

Tom Petty Gets The Band Back Together to Kick Off Mudcrutch Reunion Tour in Malibu

Back in the ’70s, Tom Petty’s first band Mudcrutch played everywhere — from unlicensed backyard festivals to topless bars — but they never performed at a charity benefit with ticket prices ranging from $150 to $2,500. On Saturday night, the reunited Mudcrutch played their first show in over three decades in the 500-seat Malibu Performing Arts Center, kicking off a 13-date California club tour and helping to raise over $200,000 for the Midnight Mission in Los Angeles. “This is a trip, isn’t it?” Petty asked the well-heeled audience. “I’m just trying to get really good and grounded here.” The band played for an hour and a half, performing all fourteen songs on their forthcoming debut album, plus a clutch of covers from their early repertoire: Elvis Presley’s “Rip It Up,” Bill Monroe’s “Love, Please Come Home,” the Rolling Stones‘ “Off the Hook” and Jerry Lee Lewis’s “High School Confidential.” (They also threw in a Mudcrutch power-pop original from the early ’70s, “I Can’t Fight It,” although it took three false starts before they nailed it.) Mike Campbell and Tom Leadon had a rapport on guitar that belied their long separation, making the traditional “June Apple” sound like an electrifying blend of bluegrass and Television. Benmont Tench was a virtuoso on piano and organ as per usual, and even took lead vocals on “This Is a Good Street.” Petty looked ecstatic to be playing bass again, and managed to whip the crowd into a rock and roll fervor: on the way out, the crowd carefully stepped over the broken glass of champagne flutes.

Rewind: The Week in Rock Daily

Photo: HONDA/AFP/Getty Obamania culminated with Barack being elected the 44th President of the United States, thanks (maybe) to some last-minute stumping by Bruce Springsteen in clutch swing state Ohio. Pretty much everyone voted (except David Byrne), then the music world celebrated. Jack Bruce of Cream started a rock feud with Led Zeppelin about 35 years too late, calling the band “crap,” saying Jimmy Page “ain’t no Eric Clapton” and topping it all off by accusing Robert Plant of being “the wrong kind of fertilizer.” Pwned! Bruce Springsteen’s fansite revealed that New Jersey’s rock god is working on the follow-up to 2007’s Magic and that it should be released by January 2009. That’ll give Bruce some new material to play at the inevitable Obama inauguration all-star concert. We still had way too much time on our hands as we tested out the new Wii Music game, explored the 50 Best Rock & Roll Video Games of All Time and talked Guitar Hero: World Tour with the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne. Our thumbs have never been more blistered.
