V/A - WILLIE GRAHAM/LEGG-PERTHES BENEFIT CD/DVD
Big Sweet Life: The Songs of Jon Dee Graham
A truly amazing limited-edition two-disc set (CD and DVD), Big Sweet Life features Austin artists performing Jon Dee songs with all proceeds going to The Willie Graham/Legg Perthes Fund.
Jon Dee's son Willie has developed Legg Perthes, a rare childhood form of avascular necrosis of the hip. For reasons unknown, the head of the femur loses its blood circulation and dies. The Graham family lost insurance coverage when their insurance provider filed Chapter 11. Now Willie's condition is considered pre-existing by other companies, making him uninsurable. They may be looking at several years of treatment, physical therapy and surgery.
The CD was recorded live at the Continental Club by Oscar & Grammy-winning engineer/producer Chet Himes on June 24, when the Austin music community banded together for a benefit concert. Artists include The Resentments, Ian McLagan,Steve Poltz, Bob Schneider, Alejandro Escovedo, Charlie Sexton, James McMurtry, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Matt The Electrician, The New Hot Damn (Kacy Crowley, Trish Murphy and Renee Woodward), Honky w/Jon Dee, Beaver Nelson, Kathy McCarty, and Walter Tragert. The CD also features an original song by Willie Graham called "Rock 'n Roll" which was performed by Jon Dee, Scrappy Jud Newcomb, Alejandro Escovedo and Charlie Sexton.
The DVD was produced by News 8 Austin's Andy Langer and features rooftop performances on July 27 & August 3 by Patty Griffin, Ray Benson, Kelly Willis, Bruce Robison, David Garza, Darden Smith, Jud Newcomb w/ the Tosca String Quartet, The Gourds, Jack Ingram, Jeff Klein, Elizabeth McQueen, and Terri Hendrix & Lloyd Maines. DVD extras include performances by Jon Dee and the Resentments. Also included is Andy's 22 minute interview with Jon Dee that details the cause that brought everyone together.
Contributions can be made payable to: The Willie Graham/Legg Perthes Fund & mailed to: The Willie Graham Legg Perthes Fund c/o RajiWorld 1810 Airole Way Austin TX 78704

JON DEE GRAHAM
The Great Battle
TRACK LISTING: 1. Twilight / 2. I Don't Feel That Way / 3. Majesty Of Love / 4. The Great Battle / 5. E. 11th Street / 6. Lonesome Valley / 7. Robot Moving / 8. The Change / 9. Something To Look Forward To / 10. Harvest / 11. Sleep Enough To Dream / 12. World So Full
Jon Dee Graham has a throaty growl that makes Tom Waits appear to be a happy and healthy man. Graham's songs are steeped with a harsh world-weariness and bound together with roots and rust. His is a black-and-white world that achingly calls for both introspection and revelation and ultimately becomes soul baring. The band drives a crunchy, roots rock sound through desolate plains, heartland strolls and tin shack blues, with a blistering version of the traditional track "Lonesome Valley", not to mention the rocked-up rendition of Neil Young's "Harvest". Guests include Bruce Hughes (Bob Schneider, Resentments, Scabs) and songbird Patty Griffin, each of whom contribute vocals on a couple of these hearty tracks. (New West)

Highly recommended. The third solo album from the former True Believer/John Doe/Kelly Willis/Michelle Shocked/Skunks guitar player. Features his crack bandmates Mike Hardwick on guitar and Mark Andes on bass plus the legendary Jim Keltner on drums. Sure to be on many top ten lists at the end of the year.

THE RESENTMENTS
Sunday Night Line-Up
".....recorded at the Saxon, naturally, and it features the band’s founding fathers Stephen Bruton on guitar and mandolin, Jon Dee Graham and Scrappy Jud Newcomb on guitar, Bruce Hughes on bass and the late Mambo John Treanor on drums. What their album delivers is, to borrow a phrase from Bruton, 'that good Resentments lost-in-the-house-of-gravity feel.'" -MSNBC.com
