Artist: By Divine Right feat. Ian Blurton amd Dan Burke
Song: Sweet Jane [Velvet Underground cover]
Recorded at The Silver Dollar Room ("Lou Reed: Live Tribute"), November 21, 2013.
By Divine Right feat. Ian Blurton + Dan Burke - Sweet JaneFull review to follow. Lou Reed, in his work in the Velvet Underground and as a solo artist, created an entirely new lineage in the great tree of rock'n'roll. Any band that embraces some combination of darkness, bad vibes, unrepentant vice, noise and art can probably trace their roots back towards Lou Reed, and in Toronto, it seemed exactly right that the Silver Dollar (home, most nights, to some combination of the above) should be the place to host a night of music in tribute. A full night saw a wide variety of Reed's heirs celebrate some good songs, ranging from quiet moments of beauty to noise freakouts.
By Diving Right closed off their mini-set by inviting up Ian Blurton (supplementing Jose Contreras' fiery guitar solos) to help them back iconic Silver Dollar booker/rock'n'roll animal Dan Burke, who delivered the goods with attitude and conviction.
Bonus! If that's not enough for you, I've made the entire tribute night available to download.
