It's all good, but this Diz/Machito is better than coffee.

Fri. 12/19/08 9:33am Hugo:

Even better with coffee AND cognac ...

Fri. 12/19/08 9:37am dc pat:

Hugo, cognac .. that french fizzy stuff - the slight advantage of the 5-6 hour difference

Fri. 12/19/08 10:32am Doug:

Sahak,
Sorry, I don't have any links to specific videos. YouTube and other sites do have TONS of Bollywood clips. Maybe try doing searches by the film and/or song titles. Good luck.

Fri. 12/19/08 10:38am Paul Sherratt:

Good morning, Douglas and dear friends.

Fri. 12/19/08 10:56am Paul Sherratt:

Carmichael, good day. I've left the link that I HAD intended for you at the end of the comments to last week's programme

Fri. 12/19/08 10:58am Carmichael:

Gracias, Mein Herr. I'll go hunt it down momentarily.

Fri. 12/19/08 11:00am Carmichael:

The last 3 singers have all reminded me of Jimmie Dale Gilmore.

Fri. 12/19/08 11:02am Ike:

Wow, the snow is coming down hard in midtown NYC now.

Fri. 12/19/08 11:04am dc pat:

Fri. 12/19/08 11:12am Cecile:

agh, total ADD meltdown this AM.
I don't know how the hell I made it into work.

The show looks awesome!

Fri. 12/19/08 11:12am Carmichael:

Gram Parsons as Phil Ochs?!?! Too cool!

Fri. 12/19/08 11:13am Cecile:

what was the guy's name from Gondor? say the black bells of Krondor...

Fri. 12/19/08 11:16am Paul Sherratt:

My late, lovely dog, Julius, resembled Jimmy Dale Gilmore. They met once ..

Fri. 12/19/08 11:17am Cecile:

that is awesome, Paul.
What kind of pup did you have?
And what was Jimmie Dale's reaction?

Fri. 12/19/08 11:21am Carmichael:

My God, have you seen the album cover to this duet?!? It's a keeper for my wall of weirdness.

Smokey's hair is almost as cool as Phil Specter's

Fri. 12/19/08 11:27am Cecile:

Fri. 12/19/08 11:30am Carmichael:

It has its own zipcode.

Paul, I saw the Sean O'Se link. Excellent memories for me!! Thanks!

Fri. 12/19/08 11:32am Paul Sherratt:

popping back in back from the coal delivery ..
Cecile,

Julius ( Cheeks ) was a flat coat retriever.
Jimmie Dale " I LIKE your dawg " "

Fri. 12/19/08 11:33am Carmichael:

Paul, was Jimmy performing in the UK at the time?

Fri. 12/19/08 11:34am Cecile:

what a wonderful memory, Paul!

Fri. 12/19/08 11:36am Ike:

Nice choice of words, Doug: "The snow is falling rapidly, yet with grace." I love it.

Fri. 12/19/08 11:42am Paul Sherratt:

Carmichael, Cecile

We've seen Jimmy Dale & Butch Hancock several times over the years but this time he was appearing at a festival called ' Americana ' We felt obliged to explain to him that the audience was likely to be comatose but not to feel any concerns about that as sitting and staring was the normal state of animation for 'Americana's ' outdoor stage audience.

Fri. 12/19/08 11:52am Hugo:

Luckily, whenever we've had Ameriana acts over here, they've been in small club settings and usually playing to appreciative audiences - whether Wayne the Train Hancock, Terry Allen or Mary Gauthier. Those outddor country festivals are to be avoided like the plague!

Fri. 12/19/08 11:56am dc pat:

Wayne the Train! Saw him last year, he's excellent.

Fri. 12/19/08 11:58am Paul Sherratt:

Hugo,

True. But 'Amricana' is a mildly fascinating people-watching exercise. And you do have to go along to support your mates when they get on the bill. Barrence Whitfield was on the last time I ventured in.

Mary Gauthier is over here in January and performing just up the road from us, which is handy.


( Yes, Wayne Hancock is tremendous )

Fri. 12/19/08 12:04pm Cecile:

oh, Barrence? I loved his first 2 records.
