The Black http://do512.com/band/the-black-2 http://do512.com/band/the-black-2.xml The Black flows from the songwriting collaboration of singer/guitarist David Longoria and guitarist Alan Schaefer, and their ears are trained toward Seventies Southern rock; they have an affinity for the Band, if not in their swagger than in the several live songs they&#39;ve covered. The Black seems as misnomer, though, as the songs here radiate. Opener &quot;Cell Block&quot; is slap-happy pop, threaded with Longoria&#39;s lyrics (&quot;How&#39;s your cell block treating you? What can I say it&#39;s my cell block too&quot;), while &quot;Appletree&quot; has an unmistakable Beatles bop to it. The jazzy piano line on &quot;Disrespecting Dirt&quot; and its equally infectious stompy guitar flows into the twang of &quot;Silverfist&quot; with its double-fisted black suit wallop of cigarette smoke and stale beer. &quot;One Second to One&quot; floats underneath beautifully orchestrated ebbs and flows (with viola and cello courtesy of Trail of Dead&#39;s Conrad Keely) and Andy Morales&#39; spare drumming. The melody and organ of &quot;Wasn&#39;t It a Good Year&quot; rises above the smoke with Longoria&#39;s lovelorn resignation (&quot;I could keep all the letters in a shoebox. Remember I would only have to summon their words for an hour&quot;). Closer &quot;JB Lenoir Street&quot; invokes the fuzzed-out Seventies breakdown that radiates the blacks and golds and blues all over. theblack http://s3.amazonaws.com/do512/photos/63451/m_30ea250381dd1faf12ef72f5e8d8968e_poster.jpg 9727756 http://www.myspace.com/theblack AUSTIN, TEXAS WqpoRqwmXr4 105573 Smithville Music Festival <p>Four-time Grammy Award winner Jimmie Vaughan will headline the 1st Annual Smithville Music Festival Nov. 7 at the Vernon Richards Riverbend Park.
