Name: Sorry Somehow by Actual Sean Nelson
Duration: 3 min 57 s
Description: Written by the late, great Grant Hart, this has always been one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands, Husker Du. I am not a partisan about Hart vs. Mould. I love them both a lot, but Grant's songs had a slight edge in the vulnerability department. I'm sorry he's gone. This is a very simple piano + vocal version I sometimes do when I play solo shows.

From a podcast series I used to produce about music creators, recorded a few years back. The interview in this episode by John Gramaglia.

A Pop Diary - Bill Chadwick

Baxie talks to former member of The Fresh Young Fellows, Scott McCaughey.  Scott is currently involved with The Baseball Project--an excellent Super Group that includes Steve Wynn from The Dream Syndicate, his wife drummer Linda Pitmon, plus Peter Buck and Mike Mills from REM.  They've just released their fourth album "Grand Salami Time"...and yes, it's about baseball. Scott talks about the album, baseball, and the upcoming tour (which includes stop in Cambridge on August 19th and at the Ridgefield Playhouse in Ridgefield, Connecticut on August 20th).  But we also talk about collaborating with REM for the last 29 years and about the stroke that he recovered from in 2017! This one was a lot of fun!  Listen on Apple Podcasts, SoundCloud, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and on the Rock102 website.

Jessica Pratt - "Back, Baby"

“Big Black Dog” 

Times are getting hard honey didn't you know
Can never really tell how the wind will blow
Seems every time I read what the papers say
Another life is stolen everyday

Don't sleep on it now
Just think for yourself
How does it feel?

There's a big black dog on the other side of town
Someday soon their gonna shoot him down

We shouldn't have to live in a state of fear
How we gonna get back every tear?
We Gotta wake the nation let them know
It's an obligation see it grow

Don't sleep on it now
Come think for yourself
How does it feel?

There's a big black dog on the other side of town
Someday soon their gonna shoot him down
Don't hold back cause we need some truth
What's it gonna take to get the fight outta you

Theres a black dog raging inside of me
If you start a revolution it’ll set you free
It's a cold war baby on a dead end street
One day soon they'll take a bite out of me
So don't hold back cause we need the truth
What's it gonna take to get the fight outta you

Recorded and mixed in the early days of 2015 at Virtue and Vice Studios in Brooklyn NY by Anthony "Rocky" Gallo. The record features Robbie Seahag Mangano from The Ghost Of A Saber Tooth Tiger on lead guitar, Marco Argiro sings the song, plays guitar and tickles the ivory. Blaine O'Brien does his thing on the Pedal Steel Guitar
while Subodh Samudre lays down the electric bass and Peter Landi beats the ever living hell out of the drums.

Big Black Dog

Some excellent friends of mine and I, temporarily christened Sean Nelson & The Coastal Elite, made this recording to say Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence to the late, great Mr. Bowie, and to the now-staggering array of great artists and friends who died this year.

"Dead Man Walking" has been one of my favorite post-golden years Bowie numbers since I first heard the drum and bass arrangement on Earthling in 1997 and I've never understood how is has escaped being discovered as one of several lost classics in his repertoire.

The band is Eric Howk (Portugal the Man/Shelby Earl) and Lance Umble (Sloucher / bod/ Cumulus)on guitars, Jacob James (Ships, MANY others)on bass & harmonies, and Michael Lerner (Telekinesis) on drums. Can't ask for better. Michael also recorded and mixed it. (When we performed this arrangement earlier this year, Nouela O. Johnston of Bardot played keyboards and sang, so she's in the band, too, if she'll have us.)

Singer, writer and KEXP DJ Sean Nelson (Harvey Danger / The Long Winters) shared this cathartic version of Husker Du's Grant Hart's "Sorry Somehow." Thank you, Sean.
