Last night’s Israel Nash Gripka show at The Rockwood Music Hall was a shot of pure rock ‘n’ roll adrenalin from the first song to the last note.  Israel’s band frequently featured three guitars, with one of the guitars swapped out for a Mandobird the rest of the time.  Although Israel plays his own material, he and the band ended the show with Neil Young’s Revolution Blues.  See a clip of Israel and the band playing it at a show earlier this year at Now I’ve Heard Everything by clicking here.
