Album Review: Todd Snider - Aimless Records Presents: Viva Satellite (Purple Version)

Iconoclastic from the jump to the present, Todd Snider added a couple of songs and subtracted another when performing Viva Satellite during his pandemic-era “First Agnostic Church of Hope and Wonder” livestream series.

Snider’s also a generous artist - the ’streams were gratis, as are the resulting live albums rolling out across 2024. For Viva, Snider opened with an unlisted bit of an unreleased instrumental called “Willie Nelson Mows His Yard Alone” and played an impromptu version of “Amazing Grace” on guitar after aborting his piano rendition of “Never Let Me Down.” He skipped the instrumental “I am Two” altogether, though one could argue it was part of the preceding “I am Too.”

Changes notwithstanding, Aimless Records Presents: Viva Satellite (Purple Version) finds Snider brilliantly recreating the full-band album on which he tried to be Neil Young (“Out all Night”) and Tom Petty (much of the balance of the original LP) as the smart-alecky, solo-acoustic Todd Snider of live performance as after he grudgingly played his version of Steve Miller’s “The Joker.”

“I’ll say this in front of god and everybody - give me classic rock over punk rock any day of the fucking week,” Snider says while demonstrating how the pinkie finger makes the difference between the guitar styles of the two. He added: “I thought the Sex Pistols looked boss as all fuck.”

Funnier than at least half of all working comedians, comfortable in who he is, magnanimous in his praise for friends and colleagues like Will Kimbrough and willing to play songs he doesn’t much like (“Positively Negative”) to get to those - “Can’t Complain,” “Doublewide Blues” and Kimbrough’s “Godsend” - he loves, Snider comes off as a mensch across the entire performance. That he is clear-headed and playing and singing in top form adds to the delight and reveals that the original Viva - which Snider said tanked - was a victim of production rather than composition.

Viva Purple follows Step Right Up (Purple Version) and will be followed by Happy to be Here (Purple Version).

Review: Will Kimbrough- For the Life of Me

We live in a time of near unprecedented division; political, racial, social, and economic. Many of us even spent a year physically divided from many of our loved ones due to a global pandemic. Division of all kinds is a theme on Will Kimbrough's new album For the Life of Me.

The album's highlight is the mid-tempo ramble “I Don't Want to Start a War.” It's the tale of an '80s Deadhead who fast-forwards to 2021 and finds himself a part of the insurrectionist mob at the Capitol. That may seem like a far jump for one man, but Kimbrough deftly connects the two extremes via a feeling of community. The same feel of community the song's '80s teen felt down on Shakedown Street is the one a more cynical and jaded 50-year-old gets in a MAGA crowd. “Tie-dyed peace sign / flying by a pillared mansion white /Then you swapped that rag / for a MAGA flag in the thick-aired Selma night,” Kimbrough recites as his song's subject falls deeper into his new community. “He says love fell out of style,” Kimbrough laments.

“The Other Side” is another song about political divisions. A jangle-pop guitar anthem that reminds me a bit of Kimbrough's '80s band Will and the Bushmen, it's a call for peace in a time when no one seems much interested in it. “Everything ain't black and white / There's a hundred million shades of grey,” Kimbrough notes, before ripping into a guitar solo that will remind you why he's been one of Nashville's most in-demand session guitarists for decades and has been one of Emmylou Harris' Red Dirt Boys for years.

The album's most searing track is “Clotilda's on Fire.” Originally written for Shemekia Copeland (whose own version is excellent) for the Kimbrough-produced Uncivil War. It's the story of The Clotilda, widely considered to be the last slave ship to land on American shores, in Kimbrough's home of Mobile, AL. The burned wreckage of The Clotilda was recently found and sparked much discussion in and about the community of Africatown that rose from the survivors of The Clotilda. It's a tale of the ultimate division and resilience in the face of that division.

If you're willing to step back from the divide and engage in discourse with someone on the opposite side of the political/social/wealth/racial aisle than you, you're Will Kimbrough's kind of person. Throughout For the Life of Me (especially the album's title track), he pleas for understanding, civility, and a place at the table for everyone. As he says in his John Lewis ode “Rivers of Roses,” “we've got a long way to go / but we've come a long way too.”

Things l Love About The Joy Ride Movies

• First up, the most obvious — Rusty’s voice. All three movies chose three great actors that are delicious to listen to on and off a CB radio.

• Ken Kirzinger who played Rusty in 3 was Mark Gibbon’s stunt double in 2.

• “How’s my little hussy?” #2 — Had me giggling and kicking my feet.

• “Hey, little girl.” #2 — Rusty makes all the boys his bitches (I may or may not have a fic in mind with Rusty fucking Bobby and a virgin!female!reader together in his barn and then kind of adopts them as his new pets).

• “No rush, no rush.” — #2 I can see him saying this in bed when you get all worked up and need a minute to calm down.

• This interview with Rusty — #2 I turned the brightness up and at some parts you can tell Rusty is smiling and he looks so precious even though he’s talking about killing people.

• The way Rusty’s hands shake when giving Bobby the dice — #2 I imagine that they shake when he gets really excited so it also happens when he’s getting ready to fuck you and he has to grip/hold something to get them to stop.

• “Get wet for me.” — #2 You don’t have to tell me twice, Rusty.

• “Where you at, baby?” #3 — *wheezes* I’M RIGHT HERE

• “I don’t party, little girl.” #3 — Because you’re old and miserable?

• When Rusty moves the hair out of Jewel’s eyes when he’s demanding her to plead on video. #3 — He should have kept her alive so he could have her all to himself. Imagine Rusty stealing not just your car (ironic in itself) but also your girl too.

• “Anyone out there know a Candy Cane?” — #1 This man spent all day looking for someone who stood him up and I can’t be certain if he was mad or not when he was asking for her the second time, but I am pretty sure he fell in love over the radio and my heart can’t take it because it was all a prank. He just wanted to find his Candy Cane :(

• “I’m not sure I’d be what you’d expect.” — #1 He’s so shy and awkward and probably has a praise kink. BUT when he starts getting comfortable enough, he’ll take control and have you coming undone.

• “What room?” #1 — I don’t know if Ted meant to do this or if I am hearing things but it really does sound like Rusty’s voice gets huskier when saying this because he can’t fucking wait to meet Candy Cane alone in a motel room and you damn well know he stood there fiddling with the bag carrying the champagne because he was so nervous.

• Rusty’s hand veins.

• His character as a whole makes the brat in me want to come out. Totally have not pictured myself getting punished by all three Rustys at the same time because Matthew, Mark, and Ken can GET IT.

• All three versions of Rusty are big boys and if you’re into big boys then you would love Rusty Nail. He’d keep you so warm and safe and would kill anyone who looked at you wrong. Literal poster boy for ‘hates everyone except you’.

From one Joy Ride fan to another Joy Ride fan let's remember one thing when it comes to watching these movies we would have never had a part two and three if we never got to experience Matthew's portrayal as Rusty Nail he is important too yes he wasn't the only one but he's the only one that isn't really acknowledged when it comes to portrayals

Ted is mostly acknowledged for the voice but meanwhile you go to the cast online and my man isn't even mentioned fucking fix that put his name up there I don't care if it's because he didn't get enough screen time I don't care if it's because Ted did most of the work his name needs to be added to the cast online too because his portrayal was just as important as Ted's

Matthew we love you and you are fucking adorable
