Happy you are out there.9:07am : Good morning Bob! Everyone!9:08am : The Band!9:08am : good morning!9:10am : My friend is reading the Robbie Robinson Book. He says it is really good so far. That is next. Right now I'm reading the Johnny Marr Set The Boy Free.9:13am : 'Water' - ahead for '65.9:14am : Good morning, Bob, and all those who sail the good ship Brainen.9:15am : Hi all9:17am : Thanks Bob...I knew you'd have Family! Brilliant.9:18am : hey Bob! digging the show!9:19am : Hope for One More Red Nightmare9:20am : Nice tribute to John Wetton...9:21am : Good enough...!9:22am : I always thought John Wetton had a beautiful voice, love his singing.9:24am : "Lament" is one of my all-time favorites! Maybe because my brother gave me this album for my 15th birthday.9:26am : I will always think of STARLESS when I think of John Wetton. There is a great you tube vid. of old K.C. you should check out.9:26am : "Winter Light" is another old fave--Bob, hearing this album on your show a couple years ago inspired me to re-acquire it. I think it's one of their best.9:26am : What is this...? The "lets play songs that sound like Pink Floyd show"?9:27am : Well, Oregon certainly broke the spell, then, Sullivan9:27am : Colin Walcott was a motherfucker.🥁 9:33am : Morning Bob and all. Bob, the menu music on the Musical History DVD features a Garth Hudson publishing demo for Katie's Been Gone. Well worth checking out. John Wetton RIP.9:35am : Don't hear Olu Dara nearly enough9:38am : Hiya, Bob, and all. Sorry to have missed Richard Manuel.9:43am : Weekend! Yes!9:46am : God, I love all the Young Marble Giants parts, though I was initially disappointed that none of them were up to Colossal Youth. But that was truly perfect.9:46am : That "Light-eyed", unless I'm misaligned w the playlist, sounded a lot like a piece from "Jesus Christ, Superstar".9:48am : Not so much the tune, but the bass line.9:53am : @Scraps... Agree.."Colossal Youth" will never date.10:01am : Darn, don't just leave us hanging, Reporter Brainen! Can't you describe the scene outside a little, please?10:03am : Quiolent, haha10:03am : Could someone at the station patch the security camera at the front door into Ustream, please?10:12am : Swingin' set bb...10:17am : I like Strange New World. Sounds like it belongs in a soundtrack somewhere.10:23am : Yeah - & NRBQ's arrangement of Monk made it sound like incidental film music - like 'ThisBoy' in 'HardDay'sNight' or something - really nice. This 'Finnish Line' is just this side of PenguinCafeOrchestra...Wonderful corners of Music not always thot about - Thx for presenting them.🥁 10:33am : Claudine Longet10:33am : Claudine Longet10:36am : Beat me to it, Andy.
But was she convicted?
And was she an almost affectless singer? Am I remembering correctly here?10:37am : this comments board for BB's show, i just sit back and read taking in all the knowledge..10:38am : @Stuart Rose: from wikithingy:
She has maintained a private profile since 1977, following her conviction for misdemeanor negligent homicide in connection with the death of her boyfriend, former Olympic skier Spider Sabich.10:45am : GL & Playboys rule..10:47am : such a strange voice gary lewis had - hard to describe, strangely unmasculine and emotionless.10:48am : Thanks, Sem.
I think, though, I'll wait until I'm more awake before looking up an explanation of such a refined act as misdemeanor negligent homicide. Sounds like just the crime a leggy, affectless model-chanteuse would commit.10:52am : I only saw Gary & PB once,about 72'or so. He blew my mind as I never knew he was such a decent guitarist. He was playing through two Fender Twins and I was right up front. Great show.10:54am : With a Stratocaster of course!10:57am : I saw Family with the Nice and Ten Years After at the Fillmore East,April 196910:58am : Bob, I have some Syd Dale albums.
