Rock and Roll Will Never Die

I just got back from seeing a very fine film called "Pirate Radio." It captures the spirit of the age the the true soul of what rock and roll is really about: REBELLION. Rock and Roll is not just a mere expression to get one's body moving like you were in a damn gym, but it is to generate great passions that generate such such emotions that you are moved to do tremendous feats never dreamed. It takes commitment and a zeal to push past the boundaries that hold back our "civilized" world. I once had a position in Radio, I had the over night gig at a station in Northern Minnesota. A choice article came over the wire. After David and Angela Bowie got divorced in 1980, there was a ten year gag order placed on her not to say anything about the marriage. When it was up, she hit all the talk show circuit saying that she caught David in bed with Mick Jagger. I remembered a video that the once had done together called "Dancin' in the Streets." I thought. I thought that should rename the song in their honor as "Dancin' in the Sheets." I said this on the ramp for the original by Martha Reeves and The Vandellas.



I believe in the radio, Corporate radio has sucked the life out of it, and repackages it into another pile of crap. Yes, I am talking about Satellite radio. 150 channels of repackaged reprogrammed crap that you really don't have a say in. Is it anything original, or is it a rehash of the same crap you've heard your whole life? What then is the answer? The only true bastion of radio that has held close to its roots and has fought tooth and nail to exist. This is Community Radio. It exists in some of the larger communities on the left hand of the dial. They usually broadcast at low power, so they have flown under the radar for quite some time. But trust me, They are worth seeking out. Here is tool to help out: http://radio-locator.com/ The playlists vary with the station and the hour. Here are a few examples: http://kpfa.org/ http://wbai.org/ http://www.kfai.org/ One last thing about these stations, you can stream these online

Live/Dead

Many years ago, I had friend named Tim that brought some other guys over to my house to hang out. These guys I knew from a meeting with both attended, but they were not into the music of the Grateful Dead. They were self-confessed Metel Heads. They loved the music of Metellica. Tim's idea was to turn them on to other music and see what happens. We warmed them up with Passion, Grace & Fire by John McLaughlin, Al Di Meola and Paco de Lucía. they couldn't believe that jazz guitars could be played that fast. Then it was Terrapin Station By the Grateful Dead off of the ablum of the same name. We played for them Live/Dead. This just blew them apart. By the time Dark Star was over, they were asking me if I had any crayons and paper. They got a sudden urge to be creative. They were totally digging it. This from Metal-Heads. Now the kicker. This was all done while being sober. The magic of the music can move people.

Day Eleven: The Heart of 1969

At the tale end of of the marathon, I dove back into the Grateful Dead files. I stated chipping away at the year 1969. I acquired most of this year in a vine at a forum that I frequent. There were two 1969 vines going around so they thought it best to just combine the two. This is the pool that I'm drawing from to complete the leg of the journey.

I have heard some talk from people that the computer domain is different that reality. I am not so sure of that. All of my hopes, fears, dreams aspirations, and anything that is going on in my mind (either good or bad) can be found on the Internet. I find that anyplace I go on the net is just an extension of me. So therefore, any problem I have stems from me and not the Internet itself. If I seem distance at times from some of the forums that I belong, I blame the depression for this. But there are the rare occasions where the an individual can really set me off. In this case, It it more a personality conflict than anything else. Those I deal on an individual basis.

Let's dive into the heart of the music:

A rememberance of a special book

Today as I was browsing through a site that I visit often, someone had remarked that they had recently seen a movie about Christine F. This jogged a long lost memory of mine. Though this is not the most reliable source of information on the web, it scratched the curiosity itch well. It seems that when I was in the Army in West Germany back in 1985 someone I had met at a meeting had recommended this book to me called Christiane F. – Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo. It was about a teenage drug addict in the streets of Berlin. Why it struck a cord with me was that the girl was my age. I was doing drugs at her age as well. My life was not as bad, but I felt felt like a living hell internally. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christiane_F. It is a miracle that I survived that period of my life. Actually, I feel most of the time like a walking contradiction.

"Well then Fido got up off the floor an' he rolled over An' he looked me straight in the eye An' you know what he said? Once upon a time Somebody say to me (This is a dog talkin' now) What is your Conceptual Continuity? Well, I told him right then (Fido said) It should be easy to see The crux of the biscuit Is the Apostrophe(')Well, you know The man who was talkin' to the dog Looked at the dog an' he said: (sort of staring in desbelief)"You can't say that!"He said:"IT DOESN'T, 'n YOU CAN'T! I WON'T, 'n IT DON'T! IT HASN'T, IT ISN'T, IT EVEN AIN'T 'N IT SHOULDN'T . . .IT COULDN'T!"He told me NO NO NO!I told him YES YES YES!I said: "I do it all the time . . .Ain't this boogie a mess!" (Stinkfoot by Frank Zappa, from "Apostrophe" 1974) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9FBQ1O5F8k

Day Ten: The Marathon continues




When I was in Ireland, I had this crazy idea of merging two ideas into one. This was to have the Time Warp Dance performed just outside the neolithic structure called Newgrange. What purpose would this serve? It make history come alive with just silliness. If Monty Ponty can do send ups of English history, why then can't an Irishman make silly of his own? This is just a thought. So I have to tell you that Newgrange got even with me for having such thoughts. I was never told that the enterence was very narrow. I am a rather large person. I almost got stuck going in and coming out. I may have very well trapped others in there with as well. They would have had to tear it down to get me out. Awe well, such is the folly of man.
I continued the marathon late last night without adding to the files. Here is what is being played:

Inject some humor till plump.

I've been out looking for work, and it is getting frustrating. Add a sluggish economy with a sluggish mood, this spells certain doom. I nned some humor to pick my self up. Here is perfect example:


Irish Jokes Irishman applies for Hi-Tech Jobsubmitted by: Shelly - New Foundland

An Irishman went for an interview with one of the major blue chip computer companies. When the interview was over the interviewer told him that all applicants had to complete a test. The interviewer took a piece of paper and drew six vertical lines in pairs of two on the paper and placed it in front of the Irishman.
"Could you please show me a clever way to make this into nine?"
After thinking for a while the Irishman took the pencil and drew a canopy of leaves on top of the three pairs of lines, and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: "But that is not nine!"
"Oh yes it is", said the Irishman with a broad Irish accent, "Tree + Tree + Tree make nine!"
The interviewer handed the paper back to the Irishman and asked him to make it 99.
After thinking for a longer while the Irishman scribbled up and down the trunks and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: "But that is not ninety nine!" "Oh yes it is", said the Irishman, "Dirty tree + dirty tree + dirty tree make ninety nine."
The interviewer was now a bit cheesed off so he decided to do the Irishman once and for all, therefore, he handed the paper back to the Irishman and asked him to make it 100.
After thinking for a considerably longer time the Irishman suddenly grabbed the pencil and drew a little blop on the bottom right hand side of each three and handed the paper back to the interviewer.
The interviewer looked at the drawings and said: "But that is not 100!"
"Oh yes it most certainly is", said the Irishman with a much broader Irish accent,
"Dirty tree and a turd + dirty tree and turd + dirty tree and a turd make 100!!!!!"

Day Eight: The marathon begins

This is the first of many marathons. The title is End of the World which should conclude when I go see the new disaster film 2012 on Friday. The first part of this is scheduled through tomorrow evening when I will heap more goodness to the mix. Keep the music flowing I say. All night long We goin' pitch a Wang Dang Doodle all night long.

Lately, I have been noticing many of the ghost hunting shows have focused their attention on closed up psychiatric hospitals. The misunderstandings of mental disorders have led to some barbaric practices that have left a permanent psychic scars that have never healed even though the patients have died. I think about the pain of dealing with my disorder, and I believe that if I went through what I went though hideous treatments I would windup as a casualty of those systems. I have felt that my home was haunted, but I realized I was the ghost in my own life. This what depression really feels like. If some of the evidence that is collected at sites of haunting points to the reality that Death is not a cure what ails you. there must be a better way to handle all the suffering. Medications works, but it is just a piece of the puzzle. I say this in regards to what my cousin asked me after my uncle passed away. "Is Death a cure for Alcoholism?" I said "yes and everything else." I could be wrong. Dead wrong.

Let's brighten up our moods and play some music. As Frank Zappa once said, "Shut Up And Play Your Guitar.":

Day Eight: Happy Veterans Day and Revised Plan

Happy Veterans Day everyone. Putting politics aside, it is right to thank all the veterans that gave of themselves in defense of this great nation. I am also a vet having served during peacetime in the mid-1980s. I salute all the branches of our Armed Forces in the job that that do. My heart goes to all those killed in the Ft. Hood massacre. I know that politics persuades how we view the world and what kinds of actions that we play in it, but it is the men and women of the Armed forces that put volunteer to put themselves in harms way whichever the pendulum of the political parties swings. Go Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines (Happy 234 Birthday), and Coast Guard.
I revised the the plan. I realized as I was climbing into bed that 10/12/68 was just starting up. What a magnificent piece of work this show is. I just about let it slipped by while I slumbered. So I stopped the player and restarted it up for an afternoon finish. I am gearing up though for the first ever Marathon beginning tonight and culminating with the end of the world. I plan of going out see the new disaster from Roland Emmerich called 2012. I heard that this will be his last of this genre. It is hard to top the destruction of the world. More on the End of the World Marathon later. We're running full tilt into the abyss.

Day Seven: 1968

I believe that I have been stirring the pot a bit to much, or it could be the PC that I own. I had serious attack last night. I had to update my antivirus software and do a complete scan of my computer. All is good this morning. I am very relieved for this. There was day that I swore off computers. Silly human that I am. I can't imagine my life without one. When you suffer from a dibilitating disease of depression like I do, it can be your only link to the world. That is why when I make comments about going into the world or family I don't say these things lightly.

I am tackling today the file the Grateful Dead 1968. It is very great year indeed. It actually one of my favorite years. The base for the album "Anthem of the Sun" was recorded during the early part of this year. There is a guy that is a much better writer than I, who wrote some killer essays on the subject. Here is his link: http://deadessays.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html

Here is another link that I hope you will find just as interesting. It is about the artist who created the album cover art for Anthem. http://www.billzart.net/files/AnthemGuide_2002-12-02_web.pdf

The msuic for today equals 18 hours. Yeah!!!!

Day Six: Late Night Sounds

As the holidays approach, I am always reminded of spending time with the ones I love. I maybe headed to the sunny confines of Florida for the Christmas and New Year's holidays. Just because I will in travel mode, this does mean that this project will be put on hold. I have hard drives for my laptop that are crammed full with goodness that is aching to get played. Thanksgiving maybe a problem, but the rest of that weekend will be a marathon.

I am also getting in the mood for shopping for Christmas. I missed a record shop in Dublin, Ireland that I wanted to check out, but much to good fortune, they have a thriving mail order business going. Traditional Irish Music is going to someones gift this year. www.claddaghrecords.com/ I also have to put together some artwork for a major project that I did last year. I am giving a six disc set of music taken from the first four seasons of SNL. I think that the best way to give a gift is to buy what they want, not what you think they want. But when you put together a project that contains music, it should have continuous theme that make sense. The transitions from song to song should have a harmonious flow. You could have a theme transitions that go from one extreme to the next which I have done. I does sound pretty jumbled and awkward, but it will leave your listeners guessing as to what is to come next.

Late night listening is:

Day Six: 1967 Summer of Love

Once the news got out, everybody wanted to be part of the scene. The scene was not only located in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, but was taken to such places as Los Angeles and Toronto, Canada. This November Monday is an exploration of this wonderous year. The big difference in the sound from the privious year is that music has expanded out of the tight constraits that had held the jams in control. The music is more like a raging beast that prowls and builds up for an assult on the senses. This pent-up psychic energy grows stronger as the year climbs month by month. It is really too bad that they were overlooked at Monterey: thier contribution to the soundtrack or the film would have given them some credit were credit was deserved. They say that they played poorly, but it was really because of where they were on the schedule between The Who and Jimi Hendrix. They are all in the Rock and Roll HOF, but there you go again with that place.

This is what is being played today from this drive. This should be about eleven hours of bliss.

Some background about the Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds recording

While searching out the origins of the Ross School, I came upon this article from ABC news. It seems that people were forking out $15,000 for series of shows in the Hampton. I guess it is not a world for the mere mortals. http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/story?id=3371477&page=1&CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312

Day Five: Sunday continued

After careful consideration over a plate of fresh oysters on the half shell and Seafood Fettuccine Alfredo, the realization that the mere playing of just two shows at a time won't complete the task. Oh course the purpose is to enjoy what I have as well to finally give a spin to the collection. This means the more the merrier. I may have learn to listen to the music while I sleep. This may be a twenty four hour- seven day a week job. So pardon me if I become kind of anal over this. It is my Virgo sensibilities. I am using WinAmp Pro to play the music. It also helps mark the time.

So for the next ten hours, here is the play list:

Day Five: Lazy Sunday

With my football team having a the day off this week, an opportuity came my way that is just what the doctor the ordered. I have been treated for my disorders at the local VA hospital on account of my being vet. I served my time duirng peacetime as a medic. At McCormick & Schmick, they are honor Vets today by offering free entrees. A real good dinner is something I need. Later today, the plan is watch some football and clean my apartment.

The tunes this morning:
Boz Scaggs At The Roxy W.Hollywood, CA 1976-04-07"The Live Silk Degrees" with soon-to-be Toto backup band! Great Soundboard. A killer groove! mp3 sample and artwork included
This concert was recorded with the all-star band which soon left to become Toto. It is an astounding soundboard, and perhaps the best recording ever to come from TAKRL. You will not believe this show came from vinyl! It is close to perfect in every way. And, after 2 1/2 years on the tracker and 1200 snatches, it's finally time for a fresh seed.
To make it even better, they are performing songs from the "Silk Degrees" album. As good as that album is, this show leaves that album in the dust. Boz and the band were clearly loving the attention and it shows in the attention they gave to making this as perfect an event as could be.
The "Silk Degrees" album invaded the charts, and just hung there for weeks and weeks. The music just makes you feel good.
Although this LP would be later known as "Jump Street Jive Drive", my copy is an advance pressing with a totally different insert. Printed on blue paper, it has a collage of Playboy cartoons. It just says "only good Boz songs" on the insert. The pressing was probably better also, which is why it sounded so quiet.
Throw this on, take your shoes off, and shaakee it, baybe! (I did not write the privious passage.)Setlist:
Lowdown You Make It So Hard What Can I Say Might Have To Cry Jump Street Slow Dancer It's Over Lido Shuffle Dinah Flo Band Intros I Got Your Number
Lineage: TAKRL 1964 ->Layla 3G ->Soundforge 6.0 ->light brushing with Click and Crackle removal tool ->"Dead Space" noise reduction
Enjoy!
