Music: Soulhat - Live At The Black Cat
For all you Austinites and those lucky enough to have spent time in the heaven that is central Texas in the early 90's, Dualtone is releasing a live record from the seminal band, Soulhat that was recorded over two nights in August of '91 at Austin's now defunct Black Cat Lounge. Here's the story from Dualtone:
Soulhat’s Live at the Black Cat is more than just a delightful and revelatory retrospective look at a then young band coming into its own. It’s also a musical journey back to another time and place. Soulhat had been formed a year before by guitarist/singer Kevin McKinney, guitarist Bill Cassis and bassist Brian Walsh, who had been college friends at Southwestern University in Georgetown just north of Austin. They added drummer Ian Bailey, and by the time of these recordings had been joined on percussion by Barry “Frosty” Smith, something of a rock drumming legend from his work with Lee Michaels, Sly & The Family Stone, Steve Miller, Rare Earth and Parliament-Funkadelic. One can’t underestimate the effect of the locale on this music. The Black Cat was a ramshackle, no frills dive music bar with minimal to no cover charge, cheap beer and free hot dogs where the bands were required to play for the better part of four hours by its proprietor, the eccentric Paul Sessums, who Cassis now recalls as something of a savant when it came to presenting live musical entertainment. After playing the club for the better part of the previous year, Soulhat was packing the joint with a mixture of college students, neo-hippies, bikers and music fans of all stripes (including then future Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong). Sixth Street wasn’t yet the bustling nightlife district it became, and even among the handful of music clubs there at the time, The Black Cat was notable for its utterly unpretentious good time vibe. That same feeling can be heard in the music. To wit, Soulhat’s music was then and still remains unclassifiable, fashioned from a broad mix of various styles of rock with splashes of blues, soul and funk as well as touches of everything from reggae to country — like the best rock’n’roll, inclusive and free of musical boundaries. — Rob Patterson
Album hits the streets December 8. For more info on Soulhat log on to http://www.soulhat.net/ or http://www.myspace.com/soulhat
