| Where are the front men? (Rant) @singintheblues You are dismissively lumping all female vocalists into a single category -- "soppy crap"? Wow. That's a pretty extreme philosophy. FYI, I'm not a fan of D. Krall, either, but that doesn't impel me to ignore all female singers... | |
| Recommended for Americana Fans: Amanda Ann Platt and the Honeycutters @slaw Do you mean Jerry’s solo album "Reflections" ? The Dead were clearly very much influenced by Roots genres such as Blues, Country, Bluegrass and Folk but also by other genres (not to mention their experimentation with psychedelics). I’d su... | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @grislybutter You’re welcome! sadly, it looks as though the US version of the DVD is no longer available (on Amazon, at least). But perhaps you brought a DVD player from Hungary with you? That Caledonia Soul Music track you posted reminds me so... | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @oberoniaomnia Yes; I know what yummy and adolescent mean, separately. What wasn’t clear to me was what, specially, you intended to connote by using them in tandem regarding music. It's still not clear, but never mind. | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @mksun It's Too bad Allmusic no longer offers the listening feature but I still use the site along with Spotify and youtube. | |
| What would you save in a fire? So sorry to learn about your traumatic circumstances. Two years ago, we narrowly escaped a similar tragedy. I live in the Sierra foothills, where fire danger is ongoing. I keep my most prized/out of print cds on a special shelf and a box reserve... | |

| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @grislybutter Have you seen that video of his 1980 or 1979 (don't recall which) Montreux show with members of the band that was on "It's Too Late to Turn Back Now" plus the great Peewee Ellis ? It's on YouTube and can be bought on DVD. Prime Van! | |
| «Today’s Lyrics Are Pathetically Bad» Rick Beato @ezwind Is that the one with Bloomers being woken up by Joe the morning after a night of heavy drinking with a plate of fried "snoots" ? | |
| Can we make major musical discoveries at age 50, 65, or 80? @devinplombier I’d like to think so. As we age, our perspective changes and it’s only natural to seek out art that speaks to us at each new stage. Well, for some, at least. A lot of people seem to stick solely with whatever they liked in high s... | |
| Recommended for Americana Fans: Amanda Ann Platt and the Honeycutters @rcd5050 +1 I've become a huge fan, to my surprise. I only discovered her a short time ago and have bought three cds. The topics she writes about resonate with me and even more so, the way her lyrics underscore the often paradoxical nature of h... | |
| Recommended for Americana Fans: Amanda Ann Platt and the Honeycutters @tomic601 "Checking attention span"... hah! I appreciate a little humor to kick off the day ;o) @bdp24 "Entertainer" explains a lot. "Lap dancer", I can’t personally attest to. | |

| Where are the front men? (Rant) @n80 I hope you mean "watching", as that particular video shows the band at its best! ;o) |
