  1. Wouldn't be any AAJ or Organissimo if someone didn't stick to them. They're different from one another-vive la difference!!!! Mike like Chuck said since you're here what's the scoop with AAJ?
  2. I'll be getting this one soon.
  3. The Rocky Mountain News also reported that. The Pitkin County sheriff's office is not saying at this time whether or not a note had been found.
  4. I remember listening to him on KXIV in Phoenix. It was a pleasure. He was one of the best.
  5. Wilson Pickett.He exists and can sing the Archies don't and they can't.
  6. Happy Birthday Mike you're the coolest!!!!
  7. Good thing you're not here. The forecast calls for snow all week long. We need the moisture and fortunately I don't have to travel this week or it would really suck.
  8. He wrote large. He lived large.RIP.
  9. Jazzmoose,Jazzmoose.
  10. Agreed.
  11. That's good to know. Thanks for the clarification. I stand corrected.
  12. Kasey Kahne. He qualified at the back of the pack but he almost always has a fast car and it wouldn't surprise me to see him move to the front. Either that or he'll blow his engine all to hell and wind up with a DNF.
  13. i have this album on vinyl. another album MPS should reissue instead of all these oscar petersons and hans kollers. it is pretty ok. not amazing or anything. this one has jack bruce on bass, if i remember right, and nippy noya on percussion. why didn't i like it. maybe it also has that zybgnew sieferet (sp?) on violin? i don't like violin. i think besides some hard fusion tracks (including a tune played much better on elvin jones "on the mountain" album-wait, is jan hammer on "helen twelvetrees" too?) there are some duets without drums. sorry i am housesitting and don't have the album in front of me-but i believe there were too many quiet duet type numbers on this album for my tastes. i have another record-called "october" or something-with mariano and trilok gurtu and bruninghaus and someone else from 1977 or so. it is ok. nothing amazing. always nice to hear 70s rainer bruninghaus though. Thanks for the info.
  14. Last I've heard, they decided they are no longer a "country" act, and don't want to be referred to as one. No word yet on how they now characterize themselves. And they are still big in country music. CMT still plays their videos all the time, and they're played on country stations, at least in the Northeast. Like I said their hits are still being played at country music. After Natalie Maines remarks a lot of country stations dropped all of their music and only reinstated it over time. So the hits are back with most stations but I would have to say that the chances of the Dixie Chicks getting any significant airplay for any new music at country radio is nil. So I would say that finding a new home for their music at radio is really their only option. The Dixie Chicks have antagonized the pro life,pro war crowd at country radio and a reconciliation appears out of the question. How can anybody be pro life and pro war at the same time-that defies all logic but that's a different subject. I thougt it took a lot of guts for Natalie Maines to speak out against the war knowing full well that the average country listener so eagerly embraces the war in Iraq and just about any other war that comes down the pike. Now the Chicks have to pay the bill and move on. I'm sure they'll do fine wherever they might land.
  15. Well you'll probably be the only one on your block with one. If it makes your heart happy why not?
  16. For me personally it was the former.
  17. Does anybody remember an album of his titled-I believe-"Helen Twelve Trees". A friend of mine had it but unfortunately I never had a chance to check it out.
  18. I saw that group with Mariano,Weber,Rainier Bruninghaus and John Marshall.It was a very enjoyable evening.
  19. Last I heard they were on hiatus having kids. If they come off of hiatus they better find another musical home because with the exception of their hits they are deader than a doornail at country radio.
  20. If that happens it's cool. Move on.
  21. I miss it. It was just as well that the two sides couldn't reach an agreement because the season was pretty much in the crapper anyway. The two sides need to cool down for awhile,get back to the table and get a deal done and the sooner,the better because they have a SHITLOAD of damage control to do. The guys I really feel bad for are guys like Chelios,Yzerman and Messier all of whom may never play again.
  22. A debt of gratitude to the Brits they clued me into a lot of things that were going on musically in the US. Among my favorites: The Rolling Stones The Yardbirds The Animals Manfred Mann(early version) John Mayall's Blues Breakers Fleetwood Mac(during the Peter Green era) Savoy Brown Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation Colosseum Cream The Pentangle
  23. Happy Birthday guys!!!!
