Ruff Stuff Part 1 of 2
This week's article is not a typical one, due to the fact that this is primarily an interview with Tary Owens, owner of Catfish Records and blues historian. However, throughout the interview, there will be links to various sites when Tary speaks of something or someone that has a web site. Most of these sites will deal with entertainers, and not education per se, but like I have said in the past, a good teacher knows how to make a lesson out of just about anything.

The Psychedelic Era: The Philisophical Side
IT'S BACK!! The true "History" in the History of Rock returns with the most complex and interesting of all of rock's many facets, psychedlia. Streching from 1965 to the end of 1969, this will pretty much conclude the chronological history of rock, as even though I'm willing to discuss the seventies and eighties, I refuse to go year by year (it's just not that good, people). This week, we start with the theory behind this music. We will continue in the weeks to come with artists, albums, events and yearly overviews. Rock on!
