Is someone asking for a CHALLENGE!!!!?????

How about "Soul Power?"

Definitely. I'm a fan. I have "Live at Stubbs" and got "Shake of the Dust...Arise" from eMusic (it seems to be OOP and is pretty hard to find). Looking forward to "Youth," his upcoming studio album. It's not good reggae for a white guy, it's just good reggae period!

Jesus! The guy looks like a character from that old "Punch-Out" video game!

I can't speak for anybody else, but I honestly have never heard it or any other Yellowjackets album. My dad (whose taste is largely repellent) owned a couple of Yellowjackets albums (which are now in my basement, still unheard by me) but I don't think that this was one of them.

What purpose does panic serve? If it happens, it happens. Nothing I do is going to prevent it...

Sorry, I was the one who misremembered that "Essential" was missing only one track from "Riot." I remember comparing them once a while ago, and that's what I remember seeing (and I mean literally comparing the two discs side by side). Anyway, I used to own the "Best of" compilation and "Riot," and I traded them in to get "The Essential" because the sound on the two older discs was really awful. Oddly, I'm groovin' "The Essential" as I type this. "I cannot make it! I'm so HIP!"

In fact, the "Essential" has (I believe) all but one track of "Riot," so it's definitely the place to start for the uninitiated...

Love the bit in the clip where Sly dances out into the audience...some of those squares look fit to be tied!

I've had two. One was about ten years ago when I was suffering some severe dizzy spells and double vision. The results were inconclusive. On the one hand, I did have a lesion on my temporal lobe, which could mean MS. However, it was an old lesion and it wouldn't account for my symptoms. In time, the symptoms went away and I haven't had a problem since. You have to have at least two attacks in order to be diagnosed with MS, so I never have been. My wife has MS, btw. She was diagnosed about a year before my attack (it's not contagious). She's on medication (has to give herself an injection daily) and is largely symptom free. The second MRI I had was about three years ago. I was hit in the head by an automatic garage door (fortunately, it was opening rather than closing). They didn't find any internal bleeding, but apparently I have a deviated septum AND a bone spur in my sinus cavity. Anyways, I've never found MRIs to be too horrible. I just close my eyes and wait.

I'd say its more of a Brighton accent than Cockney...

It WAS awfully funny, still I can't help but echo Jim in hoping that nobody stumbles upon that and thinks its real. There are a lot of people out there with a dim view of jazz, and this is just the sort of thing they THINK goes on every night!

Right now I'm listening to the second side of the Capitol Records version of "Rubber Soul."

Yeah, I saw that. That was nuts. I wonder how long that guy's been trying to sell it at that price... I'm real sorry I missed it on eBay. Hopefully another one will surfice...

Looking for a copy of this OOP Andrew Hill CD... Any ideas?

Think what you like, but Cobain was the real deal...

You'll have to sit through the first number again, but this clip has both performances from Saturday's show... Prince on SNL

I think you are confusing Colonel Warden (one of the participants in the sabotage mission) w/Colonel Nicholson (the POW commander). Guy You're right, I was. Sorry.

You know, having watched that clip of Prince joining Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne, it made me think...wouldn't Prince make an interesting addition to the Wilburys? He and Bob could talk about Minneapolis!

He shoots them because he's become obsessed with the completion of the bridge. Even though he *should* sabotage the bridge, he doesn't want to because he no longer thinks of it as belonging to the Japanese. It belongs to *him* and he wants to protect it.

As for the clip, it was (as Prince used to say circa 1987) SLAMMIN'!

Um...Jimi wasn't a guitarist? Dude, he was THE guitarist!

Neither have I, actually. I checked her filmography just to be sure that I didn't see her in something before she was famous, but I really haven't. No desire to do so, either...

Same here!

I always like her stuff, although I must say that I've listened to "Belly of the Sun" more than "Glamoured." Looking forward to this.
