Luther Grosvenor, AKA Arial Bender with Mott The HoopleSat. 10/3/15 10:08am foofs:

The artist it the Mothers Of Invention.The album is Crusin' with Ruben and the Jets.Sat. 10/3/15 10:18am mrmucho:
The band sounds pretty darn tight on this track--isn't this George Duke, et al?Sat. 10/3/15 10:18am Stuart Rose:
Not entirely in agreement with you, Bob, on your take on Dylan. But I do think Dylan's melodies weren't always strong enough to warrant the length of of his mid- sixties songs. Desolation Row, for instance, didn't need to be 11 minutes.![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:18am BEAVO:
Ok![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:21am BEAVO:
Too bad Deseri wouldn't play, Try Stuff Up The Cracks.![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:25am Santos L Halper:
Morning Bob! Boy, everything i've heard from PJ is great. Any particular LPs i should start with?![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:26am BEAVO:
Man, Dylan's songs like Desolation Row are about the words. it's a masterpiece. That's like saying Picasso's pictures don't need to be that big.Sat. 10/3/15 10:29am Debbie:
Love the music you play on Saturday morning!!!Sat. 10/3/15 10:32am Stuart Rose:
Good point about the primacy of the words. But, still, these are songs and if the melody or chord changes are not so compelling, you've got to wach the length.
Now, Like a Rolling Stone is perfect. Long enough for the brilliant portraiture of the words but musically tight.![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:34am Santos L Halper:
Thanks Bob, i'll dive in!![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:35am BEAVO:
Zappa gave Ruben Guevara Pemissuin to name his band after the Mothers LP. And he produced it. No George Duke is not on it![]()
Sat. 10/3/15 10:44am BEAVO:
Girls admitted free. Hmmm.![]()
