		<title>&#039;Man Of Constant Sorrow&#039; &#8211; True Americana Music</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I pulled out the soundtrack to &#8216;O Brother Where Art Thou?&#8217; over the weekend.  There&#8217;s nothing quite like Americana.  True American root music.  Some call this style of music the &#8216;high lonesome sound&#8217;. It&#8217;s definitely a true art form born in the &#8216;Deep South&#8217; and commonly known as bluegrass.  There&#8217;s something about the musicians and the singers who can create this &#8216;keening&#8217; effect. &#160; The movie by the way is [...]]]></description>

		<title>George Harrison&#039;s Birthday &#8211; February 25th [VIDEO]</title>
		<description><![CDATA[George Harrison would be 69 years old this Saturday (February 25, 2012). The youngest Beatle, George brought a distinctive sound on lead guitar and vocal, and even more of a trademark with his slide guitar work. Nobody played sweeter on slide than George Harrison, in my opinion. &#160; George died in 2001 at the age of 58, due to cancer, brought on by years of heavy smoking. His final album [...]]]></description>
