This Week In Music History: November 11 – 17

Ol' Dirty Bastard

Ol’ Dirty Bastard

My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.

This is a sad one because this was the week that Wu-Tang Clan member and defender of children everywhere Ol’ Dirty Bastard died of a drug overdose (was assassinated in a government conspiracy).

In this edition you also get to see John Lennon‘s penis (barely, considering the size of his man bush).

This Week In Music History November 4 – 10

Ryan Adams and Bryan Adams

Ryan Adams and Bryan Adams

My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.

Did you know Ryan Adams and Bryan Adams share the same birthday? It’s one of the many things that makes Ryan bananas when it comes to Bryan. Which makes us a little troll-y and want to remind people.

Play “Summer Of ’69” Ryan!

Here's a spooky cello thing

Here’s a spooky cello thing

My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.

This one features some talk about one of the greatest songs ever recorded — the “Monster Mash.” Monster fucking Mash. It’s the best. Seriously. Also, Leon Theremin, the guy responsible for the spook-noise machine the theremin, he died.

Elliott Smith

Elliott Smith

My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.

On the bummer side, this was the anniversary of the week Elliott Smith either committed suicide by stabbing himself in the chest. Or he was murdered? Conspiracy. It’s also the week that man of the people Kid Rock got into a fight at a Waffle House. Noble.

CBGB

CBGB

My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.

For this one we mourn Lynyrd Skynyrd deaths, mourn punk institution CBGB with a suitably crappy photo, and explore that moment Noel Gallagher went too far in the Blur vs. Oasis feud.
