At 78, Colorado folk icon Judy Collins is more spry, vibrant and generally full of life than many people, musicians or not, that are a fraction of her age. Never less than prolific throughout her career, the last three years have seen her particularly forthcoming with the output. More importantly, everything she puts her name on is worth listening to. Strangers Again was released in 2015, followed by Silver Skies Blue, her album with singer/songwriter Ari Hest, of the Bronx, last year.

Singer/guitarist Jesse Hughes, the brash, bad-boy singer of Eagles of Death Metal, has a simple motto: "Stay horny, keep it light, never let the bad guys win." It's fitting for a musician who came out of one of the most chilling attacks of terrorism, shaking his hips just that much harder. The band has been on the road almost consistently the past year, rocking crowds with their celebratory, boogie-down anthems. They have a stop in Tucson coming up on Oct. 18.

Thrusting his hips, doing an impure rock 'n' roll vamp that's as real as it gets. Even with a prosthetic leg, he's one hell of a dancer. As his band, The Trainwrecks, led by rock 'n' roll bloodman, bassist and band co-founder, Ken Andree, flame behind him. As the night deepens, Trash begins stripping, removing his prosthetic arm with the hook, snapping it like a whip onto the stage buckling beneath him like a homicidal horse.
