I tried to dig up the bass player's name but could not. I've failed you. But there's no reason you should be any different from everyone else in my life.

I have a very special place in my heart for Simon, Cooder, Gabriel, and everyone else who has helped world musicians gain access to us over here. We are embiggened.

I saw Makeba in a little club in Vancouver (with Hoyt Axton). She'd been one of my mother's favorite singers. Her voice and her bearing were magnificent.

Haunting theme by Jay Ungar, horrible scenes of carnage in the American Civil War ASHOKAN FAREWELL I would have played the clip with the Sullivan Ballou letter written to his wife two weeks before he was killed at First Manassas, but I selected this one instead.

Hate to say it... Bomb Iran is actually better music than the first three or four things I notice linked on this page at least...

gunga does not kill. gunga cannot kill. It simply is not in him. And that is attested to by all the red-blooded American sailors in the Pacific fleet who have known his mother.

It's rather the opposite of chest-puffed militarist music, isn't it?
A smart man observed that the difference between the American networks' coverage of war in Iraq and al jazeera's coverage was that the first showed the weapons taking off and the second showed them landing.

I'm sorry Bernie.

My Way blew more ships out of the water for me than there are in your Navy.

The idea that I did it my way is so ridiculous that I have to force it from my mind in order to prevent myself becoming reduced to a tittering mass of jelly.

Restless Farewell is a true work of art. How can you possibly connect that with My Phewking Way. Unless you go the Sex Pistols route.

I'm not sure what you are talking about. I linked to Springsteen introducing Sinatra and then performing Angel Eyes accoustic.

But I could also point out that your voice has been the only one on this thread to toss up criticism of other people's musical tastes. Are you sure we need your aesthetic coaching?
