Reading about your band, I see you ARE a faggot. Hey, knock yourself out, I'm sure they love you
down at Clyde's Prime Rib. Ha Ha Ha!!!!I can't believe I've allowed myself to have a conversation with you, You're less than zero.. al Skip Elliott Bowman wrote: You poor, pitiful creature. No wonder you're (self-described) out of work--who'd want to hire someone with an attitude like yours? And it's self-evident you don't visit the musician boards too. I'll be bound you don't visit with other musicians either.

HOWEVER, I do have in interest in improving my recording techniques, hence I do visit the "rec.audio.pro" newsgroup, which is where I'm responding from as I write this. I'm responding to your post, which I see is cross posted to several groups. If you don't want my posts to show up on your group, sign on to the "rec.audio.pro" group, and write to me from there. Are you sure you're a musician? Do you qualify to be alive? Prove it. Is it true what that other poster wrote? You're a thief and a child molester? Prove that you're not a pedophile, I already know you're a stalker. Wow, a musical pedophile. Do you hang out with Michael Jackson?. al |

I saw that Brit Blues thang. You are right on.
Don't worry about clowns like "Flamenco Skip" Rob Schuh can tell you just how much of a musician he is! As for the nostagia producer choice thing. I can understand Don Everly's attitude. It's real easy for a musician who had a big hit and has slipped in popular appeal to get some of the PBS producers to pull up the milking stool to nostalgia as a cash cow like PBS does. Sure making money to live is OK and probably beats the Holiday Inn lounges all to hell. BUT. Take a guy like Satchmo. The guy not only stayed as current as yesterday to his last breath but also never "played it just like it was on the (hit) record". And even further he didn't need a bunch of new "songs" to make hits. he would take any old standard and use his talent to turn it into a smash. To me THAT is where it's at. I HATE cover stuff. Even if you are exploiting yourself. Benj |

Good luck in your Holiday Inn Gigs, guys Next time you're in Boise ID, hit the Holiday Inn and see if you can keep up with the players. I already know the answer to that one. You could no more hold down a Holiday Inn gig than you could cut tracks alongside Springsteen. The only thing keeping you from being a legend in your own mind is your complete lack of a mind. -- ha |

Benj, have you ever played with Schuh? Have you ever met him, face to face?
I know neither of you've ever met me, let alone heard me play (you'd never say something like that to my face, especially if you'd heard me play), so I don't see how you can pass judgment on my abilities. If you actually knew anything about Louis Armstrong (who calls him "Satchmo" anymore? Not musicians), you wouldn't be making such sweeping generalizations about him. Not that you don't have a right to your opinion, as long as you remember that it's just your opinion; however ill-informed. It doesn't surprise me that you, Schuh, and this Allan get along so well. Misery loves company, eh? This is my last post responding to this hijacked thread. You can have the last word. howldog, let's not feed the trolls. wrote in message oups.com...

As a first generation rocker, I'm also a big fan of McCartney's and most other
first generation rockers. It was great to do shows with Chuck Berry, Jack Scott, The Ventures, Tommy Roe, but I guess you had to be there. It was cool to sing at Ryman's Grand Old Opry as a guest of Marty Robbin's, and it was nice to be drawing a weekly check as a staff writer at Charlie Rich's company. Hell, I even got to be in a movie. Except for a few assholes I've discovered while posting some musical opinions on the internet, life is pretty ****ing sweet. and oh, unless I forget, Springsteen still sucks. al George Gleason wrote: George Gleason wrote: Alan Cassaro wrote: Incredible, I expected that if I listed my "credentials", that there would probably be a group gangband, and so there it is.

If you can't see where "Incident on 57th street" or "Spirits in the Night" and "for you" evokes all the passion and imagery , easily comparable to "el Paso' and FAR outstripping that"pink carnation" crap MR put out Oh and Tommy roe, a Humperdink wanna be, LOL Did chuck ever pay his keyboard player for writing his guitar parts, last I heard , NO. sorry you hate music I happen to love CB, MR Bruce, bob, the cars, rage against the machine, tom waite, doc Watson, and walter carlos as well as thousands of others I am privledged to work with th greats, the near greats, the were greats and the ingrates I know you fit in there "someplace" George |

Trivia note: a video of Barry McGuire performing on Hullabaloo, circa 1965, has him doing live vocals to pre-recorded instruments. Also rather a bizarre setting-- junked cars and dancers in black. What weirded out era. Love it. Even more weirded out: the Mamas and the Papas, totally lip-synched, with go-go dancers popping out of bathtubs to do this very strange motion like batting away attacking flying ferrets while waxing a car with your butt. What demented studio executive blessed this concept? -- |

In the interview, he even mentioned going to see Little Richard and wanting to hear him play "Tutti Frutti" or whatever...the hits. It's the Ricky Nelson "Garden Party" thing. Sure, as a musician you might want to play only new and interesting stuff, "please yourself". But if you've had a career with any length, a good number of the folks who are coming to see you are *paying* to hear some of the songs that helped you to be a musician with a career of any length. I heard a radio interview with . . someone . . maybe Sedaka? Who called it, "The Contractural Obligation Medley." |

He does, but the original quote (which has been attributed to everyone from Doc to Louis Armstrong) came from Big Bill Broonzy. Asked whether blues was folk music he said, "It must be folk music. I never heard no horses play it." According to Sam Hinton, this was one of his favorite lines in the late 40s - early 50s. Peace, Paul |

Again, the major came into play and wanted all the dollars they could garner, and the rest is history. That history being The Moody Blues coming up with a live Nights of Blue Satin and the Beatles couldn't come up with Julia. -- Roger W. Norman SirMusic Studio wrote in message ...

I think the expectation that the performance must match the CD is too great, and the artists and their management don't want to wedge their CD sales. I have always ascribed to the same philosophy the Allman Brothers Band allways had and that is "Do only in the studio what you can do live." I used to ascribe to that philosohy as well. The thing is use as an example The Beatles Sgt. Pepper album. No way on Gods green earth four guys are gonna pull that off live. I think what we have is two different approches here. When in the studio play what is best for the song not whether or not you can pull it off live. When playing live make the nessesary adjustments to pull it off live. A few subtle changes here and there will make it possible to pull off the studio tune live. Of course you won't get all the nuances or instrmentation of the studio version but, a great musician will make do just fine. There is room for all kinds of live performances. As another poster suggested, adding musicians if a possibility. Lets say I want to go see my favorite power trio Kings X. I don't want to see them with more musicians. I want to see them pull off their huge three part harmonies, thick guitar parts ,monster bass sound along with their complex yet melodic melodies as a three piece live while matching their studio stuff in the process. They do suceed as well as they are brilliant musicians. Some acts actually do gigs which are 'enhanced' versions of music they've recorded. Elton John, and the numerous shows he's done with full symphonic backing, comes to mind. Sequencing (some) keyboard parts and playing along with...is that considered 'cheating' by purists? IMHO sequencing is cheating. It is no different than playing to tapes. Some studio complex tracks sound great when 'stripped down' to play out, like in the 'Unplugged' series; except with no acoustic restriction. It depends on musicianship and the song. I don't want to hear vocal backing tracks of any kind, myself...but that's just me. If you need additional voices, hire 'em. I say if you need voices sing them yourself if possible. I am with you on the backing tracks. I agree, however that recording any kind of 'lead'--be it vocal or instrumental--and passing it off as live is cheating...actually passing *anything* off as live is cheating. Deception sucks. Yep.
