Eugene Chadbourne is many things but protest singer songwriter isn’t the first thing people think of. Most know him for the velocity of his guitar playing, I asked him once how he got so fluid on the guitar. He answered: bluegrass. His writing (and rewrites) impress me.<\/p>\n

Roll Over Belusconi<\/a><\/p>\n
