I thought that Blackstones cut sounded remarkably ahead of its musical time if it was from 1960. Looking for more info, I see the music in that compilation is from 66-69... si? ...no? | |

Billy Lee Riley ... one of the remaining original Sun Records artists, Is in VERY bad need of help! Billy has had his share of health problems, and is now battling Stage FOUR bone cancer. Although musicares is helping with house payment, car and such, He and Joyce are totally out of money and can barely afford to eat. This is a CALL FOR HELP to all musicians and fans. Please remember, twenty bucks from all of us would make a HUGE difference in Billy's life! What if this was you? Let's all get together and send something today to Billy and Joyce and show them that he means alot to us. If you have a website, a facebook or myspace, please post this need for help on it! We can't save the world, but it will mean alot in Billy Lee's life! His Address is: Billy Lee Riley 723 Crest Drive Jonesboro, Arkansas 72401 | |

speaking of obscenity, interesting the two very different types: the MJ jokes and war. and referring to the latter; parq, i saw a trailer for "the hurt locker".. pretty intense | |
|

Hey Question Mark (or is it Marc?), You nailed it: Wayne Shorter. | |
|
Fri. 7/10/09 10:42am
Freddy:
I find it distasteful that since 1993 everyone thought that Michael was a pervert, but when he suddenly dies every single person wants to say that he was a hero, a rolemodle. This world is filled with nothing but hypocrites. | |
|

Doug, great show as always. I love your sets and playlists. You do a great job "curating" if that's the right word. I can't stop listening to your show from June 19th. Especially like the Greek set, calypso, xylephone and all the people making animal sound songs. So much good stuff! enjoy your vacation! | |
