His lyric style has often been compared with that of Bob Dylan, and his songs have been sung by the likes of Emmylou Harris. In addition to the more traditional sounds Butch Hancock infused eclectic styles in his earlier recordings with artists Alex Coke, Austin Klezmorim's Bill Averbach, Spyder Johnson, John Hagan, the Squeezetones' Ponty Bone, and pianist Marcia Ball....

Wagonwheel Blues Pitchfork ...Following a free digital EP, Barrel of Batteries, where two of these songs originate, Wagonwheel Blues sounds modern, outsize, and urban. On opener "Arms Like Boulders", guitars dart like tracers as Granduciel sings about...well, like Dylan, his lyrics demand some extreme parsing, giving few concrete details in favor of a general sense of subject matter and attitude. The War on Drugs' concerns, however, aren't necessarily narcotic, as their regrettable band name might suggest, but largely ecological and occasionally political: "And so now that you realize that planets are spheres with oil on the inside / And your God is only a catapult waiting for the right time to let you go into the unknown."...

By the 1964 festival, Johnny Cash was singing Dylan's praises and his songs (his rendition of "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" ends all too soon). More than that, Dylan's earnestness was balanced by a self-aware irony, in his attitude and his songs; he and Joan Baez all but crack up as they perform "It Ain't Me, Babe."...

Speaking of Michael, he sang two of my favorite Beatles songs, "Across the Universe" and "A Day in the Life," with lovely but lackluster vocals and some decidedly odd pronunciation of the jai guru deva om mantra. And speaking of pronunciation, Jason Castro sang an adorable "Michelle" with perfect just-learned French and the same air of slight embarrassment he's exuded ever since his rocky high note at the end of "Hallelujah"-a gaffe he unwisely reminded us about in his "my most memorable moment so far" clip....

Simone never sang more passionately than she did during the potent performances offered here: a 1965 Dutch concert at which she sings Dylan's "The Ballad of Hollis Brown" and her wrenching civil rights song "Mississippi Goddam," and a 1968 broadcast on England's Granada TV featuring everything from Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You" to "Ain't Got No/I Got Life" from the musical "Hair."

Also featured is the band's great riff on Sly Stone's "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey" with Ice-T and his Body Count co-hort, guitarist Ernie C., "Ripple", the band's last proper studio recording of the original line-up that appeared on an otherwise weak 1991 Grateful Dead tribute album called Deadicated and some great previously unreleased stuff like a live cover of the Stooges' Funhouse jam "1970" that dates back to 1987 and a Nothing's Shocking-era live staple where Farrell would sing Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" over the band playing Bauhaus' "Burning from the Inside", which they call "Bobhaus". The third disc is the full release of the October 11, 1990 Milan, Italy show that was recorded for MTV Italy, perhaps the finest testament available, outside of seeing them in concert for yourselves, as to how insane Jane's Addiction was live....
