Fugazi

  Last week, my buddy Brandon Gentry had this feature published in Washington City Paper: Margin Walkers: A Quarter-Century After Fugazi Reintroduced the World to DC Punk, 13 Takes on 13 Songs. “13 Takes” refers to the fact that Brandon spoke with 13 different people about 13 Songs, Fugazi’s debut CD (1989). In fact, 13 […]

Today I Found My Friends: Nirvana in 1990

Posted by Lance Davis - August 9, 2011 - 1990, Chico, Chris Novoselic, Dale Crover, Dave Grohl, Kurt Cobain, Nirvana, Scream

  Nirvana is in the air again. Spin recently asked, “What does Nevermind mean now?” and The Onion looked back at the Axl Rose/Kurt Cobain relationship circa 1991. Even Amy Winehouse‘s recent death shook up those old “27 Club” cobwebs. I get it. Nevermind was an epochal release, 20 is a nice, round number, and […]

War at 33 1/3: 1990 Reconsidered

Posted by Lance Davis - January 21, 2011 - 1990, Chico, Ice Cube, Mark Arm, Public Enemy, Uncle Tupelo

1989 had a profound impact on me. That was the year I started DJing at KCSC, Chico State’s campus radio station (see flyer below), and discovered so much greatness in the vast American rock ‘n’ roll underground. It was like seeing in color for the first time. Music didn’t suck, popular music sucked, mostly. Worst. […]

Give Back The Key To My Heart

Posted by Lance Davis - May 2, 2008 - Alvin Crow, Chico, Doug Sahm, Jay Farrar, Jeff Tweedy, Uncle Tupelo

Texas Rock For Country Rollers was the first Doug Sahm album I ever bought. 1992 at Melody Records in Chico, CA. Found an old vinyl cut-out that looked like it might’ve been used to chamois a ’74 Pinto. That was the bad news. The good news is that the record itself was in fine condition. […]
