"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

On a lark, I watched Smokey and the Bandit about three days before Reynolds died. I found a gaping plot hole: they have 28 hrs to get from Atlanta to Texarkana and back. So how does he have time to swing by the Pontiac dealership, install a CB radio, get his custom BAND1 license plate, and then swing by Snowman's house to talk him into making the drive?

Finally, I was wondering where The Stallion went - thought maybe someone stole it or something...
Avatar 10:38am
Wild Neil||Peace All:

I think exploring old pop music can be productive. Even the Dave Clark Five's "Glad All Over"seemed revolutionary to me when my high school music teacher Mr. Demaio played it back in 1979 at North Warren Regional. Pop music from the 20's can be a lot of fun, see the Boardwalk Empire soundtrack for proof of that. Also, Killing Joke and Blondie can be very rewarding, and they were both trying to sell a lot of albums (in different ways of course) yet still their music is interesting.
