Karl Wallinger, aka World Party (either alone and/or whoever he played with), was a wonderfully tuneful musician with a great sense of melody. It bummed me out that Robbie Williams had a huge hit with "She's the One," when it was basically a note-for-note copy of the original World Party song. He definitely wore his influences on his sleeve. Check out the Sympathy "Woo-

That's why I transferred the Gimme Shelter movie to CD. I much prefer that JJF vocal to the overdub. That and the Satisfaction has a ripping solo! AND, the Flying Burrito Brothers doing Six Days on the Road as an added bonus to the Stones' performances. Like having Taj Mahal on Rock and Roll Circus - a wonderful complement to the band!

Each t-shirt is only printed in the front and there is written on the sleeve "the north american tour 1989" Does anyone know how many different shirts there are? there is a particular reason for them? thanks in advance.

My wife and I saw Lisa Fischer with the five piece band Ranky Tanky last night at SF Jazz here in San Francisco. Lisa is an incredible performer. It was plain to see why back in 1989 the band could see her presence. She, unlike traditional "back-up singers," has the presence to go toe-to-toe with Mick on songs like Gimme Shelter most obviously. Last night her voice was supreme; he

I still have my All Music books for Rock, Jazz and Country. I found them incredibly helpful for older music. It was an essential guide for where to start in the large catalog of 50s and 60s Jazz artists like Freddie Hubbard, Grant Green, Horace Silver, Art Blakey. Super helpful in getting a sense of what to get (and at times skip) in the many eras of someone like Miles Davis. Imagine starting

Certainly the most inspired original song and performance since Bridges. SSOH puts Angry into the Stones by Numbers camp in comparison. While Angry is hummable, this tune is light years better IMHO. TeaAtThree

While I am personally not a fan, my daughter has done her best to help me understand. From a musical perspective every songs (to me) sounds like a finely crafted pop song. Nearly everything is catchy on the first listen. I appreciate the storytelling of her songs. 24FPS, she has already crossed genres having started out as a country singer from Nashville who is now living squarely in the pop l

As a recording act, I'd agree that Undercover and the video for the song Undercover were the last moments of relevance. The long layoff to the disappointing Dirty Work and then another three years for Steel Wheels meant they fell off the radar. As a concert draw, again a long layoff from '82 to '89 meant they were in "comeback" mode, which is a step removed from conte

Love Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds and Rockpile. Was just last night listening to Nick Lowe's records, The Impossible Bird, The Convincer, and At My Age. I saw another offshoot, Little Village, which included Ry Cooder and John Hiatt in 1992. Between them, they have made tons of great records as solo artists and supporting each other. Nick Lowe is on tour with Los Straitjackets right now.
