haven't listened to Bruce Cockburn in YEARS - I should get back on that; he is great. That is the great thing about this thread-new music, or going back to old stuff forgotten...speaking of old stuff, a friend played me Crazy Horses by the OSMONDS - yeah, those Osmonds...blew my mind! I had no idea they ever actually did any cool songs...I'd link to it but I don't know how; look for the live vid-they look like they're refugees from Soul Train! Tony.

I recall the late Glen Campbell introducing John Hartford to play a little song called "Gentle on my Mind" on what I think was called the Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour.

Well he played it on the banjo. But you all know what I mean.

I don't know if I could handle watching that one - but !

The Lawrence Welk was great... but please sit down for this - it showed up in the side bar on YouTube while watching LW.

The Ross Sisters:

Unreal, just unreal.

The title of the Ross Sisters made me think of Little Jimmy Dickens:

Yeah, I watched that one, too; truly some mind-bending weirdness!

Mind-bending weirdness?  How about this one - Frank Zappa, "the musical bicyclist", on the Steve Allen Show from 1963:

Yes.  Well, sort of; there are 2 of them now.  White, Howe, & Downes have "Yes", with Billy Sherwood & a singer I've never heard of.  I saw "Yes featuring Anderson, Rabin, and Wakeman" - + 2 other guys.
Drums & bass were serviceable.  Rabin can play, but he's no Howe.  Anderson & Wakeman were, well, Anderson & Wakeman.  A pretty good show.  And to make it better, the (lawn) tickets were free.   And best yet, it was at Ravinia - where the guy in charge of sound is Norm Krueger, who worked with me for 2 different bands in the early & mid '80s, and was my roommate '80-'83; not only did he slip us into pavilion seats, it was the first time I'd seen him in 18 years!  A good night all around.

Been thinking of interesting songs Fleetwood Mac could put in the setlist for the upcoming tour. To my knowledge, these two have never involved L. Buck. (at least not in a live stage scenario) I also think the Campbell/Finn team could easily support them.








Wishful thinking, maybe.  ::)

I don't understand the ideofoon thing.

I'm with you, Dave.  It raises many questions - the main one being "why?"  (Either just before or just after "WTF??")

The Ideofoon is an installation by Dick Raaijmakers, a composer and pioneer in electronic music. Basically, it's loudspeaker-generated music.
