Greg Dulli - Dangerous Highway 7"

I don't care if I had no clue who Eddie Hinton was, I do care that here are 2 new 7"s from some fantastic musicians: Greg Dulli and The Drive-By Truckers. Now, apparently Eddie Hinton was "a highly respected musician and songwriter who played lead guitar for the Muscle Shoals Sound Rhythm Section in the late 60’s, and worked as a session guitarist for Wilson Pickett, Aretha Franklin, Elvis Presley and many more. Hinton passed away in 1995 at the age of 51." Apparently, he was also a close friend of Bob Dylan.

What we have here are tribute 7"s, the first in a series called "Dangerous Highway: A Tribute To The Songs of Eddie Hinton". The first 7" in the series features Greg Dulli (Gutter Twins, Afghan Whigs, Twilight Singers) covering “Hard Luck Guy” and “Cover Me”. The second installment sees The Drive-By Truckers covering “Where’s Eddie” and “Everybody Needs Love”. Get one or both of these 7"s which are available from Shake It.

HISTORY OF HEX

Born and raised in the 80s, my first music purchase ever was Metallica's "Kill Em All". After that, Guns N Roses and Maiden followed, to become submerged in the booming hardcore scene and into the likes of Kindred, Biohazard, Congress, Snapcase, Boy Sets Fire, Liar, Culture, Morning Again, etcetera. In the late 90s my attention shifted more towards bands such as Botch, Converge, Coalesce, Cable, Rorschach, Deadguy, Starkweather, Reversal Of Man, Charles Bronson and the likes, as well as all the emobands coming out like Mineral, Elliott, Texas Is The Reason, Cursive, Waxwing, Joshua, etc. Then I got older. Nowadays, my tastes range from Appleseed Cast to Animal Collective, from Black Mountain to Burzum, from Cat Power to Converge, from Damien Jurado to Down, from Earth (hence the name of this blog) to Elliott, from Forensics to Fugazi, from Girls Vs Boys to Grizzly Bear, from Harkonen to Hey Mercedes, from Isis to I Am Kloot, from Jesu to Jucifer, from Karate to Koop, from Liars to Leviathan, from Mineral to Mastodon, from Neurosis to No Warning, from Om to Owls, from Pelican to Phosphorescent, from Q and not U to Quetzal, from Radiohead to Racebannon, from Samothrace to Sunn0)), from These Arms Are Snakes to Two Gallants, from Ulver to Unbroken, from Venetian Snares to Vampire Weekend, from Wolf Parade to Waxwing, from Xiu Xiu to Xasthur, from Yob to Young Widows, from Zombi to Zoroaster. Yeah, that was fun, thanks for asking.
