Layla Unplugged And Its Relation To WoodDorking

I wish I'd been able to stay up and bat that around some more, H. but I was too sleepy.

One of my favorite sans verb quotes is from Sonny Liston:

"People funny. Life a funny thing."

He's one guy I'd never question about usage.

No problem Tom, as that last bit of Latin was meant to convey: if you've done any Latin in the Summa, you've done enough--god bless you my son, and go in peace.

Hey, I wonder if George Thorogood was riffing on Liston:

"Everybody funny. Now you funny too."

Cheers, H. ...with regrets if 20 yrs. of teaching Latin grammar has made me anal enough to rant about it--in the Wreck of all places.

This?

Tom... I think that you have WAY too much time on your hands.. *lol*

It's an easy one for me... if it's Clapton, it's all good...

now go out there and make a cd holder for your friend..

That'd be the one..'cept I ripped from the DVD, which is a hoot. Cindy Lauper's contribution alone is worth the price of admission.

I don't know why she's the standard. After all, who died and made her queen, huh?

Surely you're joking. The Phil Collins produced albums are pure drek, not worth the energy it takes to throw them in the trash.

One of my most played DVD's is Clapton at Hyde Park. Having said that, Clapton has also done some pretty awful stuff. Overall, I think he's overrated. Selling England By The Pound is one of my favourite albums. When I listen to it, I can't believe that Phil Collins is in that band. Rutherford's and Gabriel's careers certainly have shown to me where the talent was. Collins is just a blob of warm plastic slithering along on heavy digital delay-lines. Manilow has more personality/talent.

Music For Montserrat really shows how small a 'talent' Collins really is. When you got Clapton, Sting and Knopfler in front of you, you'd figure he'd rise to the occasion...but noooo.. he barely gets by. Good thing Ray Cooper was there to bail him out. (Talk about a giant)

My 2 cents

Tom:

Oh, I get it, funny! Yeah he was a writer! (I'll leave the book names up to you search out!). And, if you need the condensed version - there's a current movie playing in some cities about his blockbuster book.

His actual quote was:

"That's not writing, that's typing".

Truman was referring to Keroac's "On the road". The one he wrote on a single roll of paper over 3 weeks.

Amen, brother!

Someone suggested that the unplugged After Midnight would not be good. JJ Cale (original author( did a killer version. max

Amazon's short audio track doesn't do it justice, I guess. I was curious how she was doing (I adored both her and Liz Peña in "Vibes") and hit

Why, WS and KJV, of course.

She Sure Is. The hair is a bit tamer these days, however... I actually went to the site you pointed out and listed to the 3 tunes. I could swear I heard Sarah McLachlan in the background, and a few lines where the voice sounded eerily reminiscent of Marianne Faithful. It's funny how the mind remembers voices you haven't heard in almost

Don't buy many albums anymore, since loosing my earlier collection, and gaining a few years, but she looks like a keeper.

JMHO,

I don't think it sold well.... then again.. Dark Side Of The Moon and Ziggy Stardust and Who's Next (only the Best Pure Rock Band Ever)..... were released about the same time as Selling England (1973 The year I graduated). I had a job with the power company as an EE, but all my free time was spent messing in the music biz. Money for nothing and the chicks for free...LOL...Mostly hardware. Daytime, white shirt/pocket protector, go home and eat..set up a sound system...party all night and break it down at the end of the gig. Just a roadie who never left Toronto. Very early Rush before their first album (Upstairs at George's Restaurant Queen & Spadina) comes to mind.

I always keep a close eye on the British music scene. New ideas pop up and they have the absolute BEST fan-base on the planet. Lots of cool stuff happens there. Libertines (now Babyshambles) are but one example of a fresh sound that will likely never sell this side of the ocean, because the weasels with the cigars and Courvoisier(blech) are busy selling bling, you dig what I'm saying? And now those record company weasels are wondering why the kids (what izzit? 70% of all record sales?) are refusing to buy an entire CD that just has ONE song on it and the rest filler. Of course they feel ripped off and download.

'Lamb' and 'Selling' were full of 'hits'. Just Heavy-Duty compilations of creativity of Sgt Pepperian proportion.

Sorry... sometimes I just Ramble On

Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid...hehehehehe you MUST tell me what your company did.

It's a subjective thing, John.. that's why they make stain in more than one color...

Dat's OK by me. Then again, I always wanted to find out if she was a natural orange.

DAGS "Amazon lauper" and listen to tidbits of the entire album. The one I like has Jeff Beck playing. The ones we both like have Sarah in duos with Cyndi.

Quite true! (times 4)

I'm still collecting CDs when they move me, and still finding CDs to replace the old vinyl I can no longer get (or want.)
