Conference napalm::heavy_metal

    Wow, there are too many to name them all (I like a *lot* of bands),
    but here are a couple of my non-metal favorites:
    
    Rockpile (Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe, Billy Bremner, Terry Williams)
    Clash
    Credence Clearwater Revival
    Eric Clapton (aka GOD)
    Yes
    Jeff Beck
    U2
    Neil Young
    Everly Brothers (love those harmonies!!)
    Patsy Cline (definitely far from metal here!)
    Buddy Holly (ahhh - the roots!)
    
    oh, I could go on for days, but that should cover it for now...
    
    cat

    
    Bruce Springsteen (go ahead abuse me!)
    Ferenheit
    Yes
    Joe Walsh 
    And many more
    
    Rae

    
    The list is endless, but here are a few:
    
    Jeff Beck                   The Who
    The Allman Bros.            The Stones
    Al DiMeola                  Johnny Winter
    Eric Clapton                The Mahavishnu Orchestra
    B.B. King                   Lynyrnd Skynard
    The Blues Bros.             Pink Floyd
    CCR                         
    
    That's my favorites off the top of my head.  There's a lot of great
    music out there that isn't heavy metal.

    	Non-Metal talk in this conference?  Absurd!

    	Pink Floyd
    	Dire Straits

RE: Last Stand...


Is that the Kathy who used to sing for On The Run (AKA -On The Rag ?)

jc

    Just a few from memory:
    
    Jeff Beck			King Crimson (both new and old)
    Hendrix			Tchaikovsky 
    Cream/Eric Clapton		JS Bach
    Bob Marley			Many other classical
    Yes				Rolling Stones
    BOC (not metal IMO)		Allman Bros
    Emerson, Lake, & Palmer	Prince
    Genesis (only the OLD stuff, pre '77)
    Police			Larry Carlton (utterly amazing!)
    George Thoroughgood [sic]	Alan Holdsworth
    				Yellow Jackets
    
    That's enough, the list would be HUGE.  I'm with JC in the "just
    about anything but country and sleezy listening" group.
    
    gh

    Just as a side...  
    
    I believe that this is an appropriate topic for this conference.
    Although it does not deal directly with Heavy Metal music, it does
    allow an insite into what other music HM affectionados listen to.  For
    me, it's nice because it allows me to know what some different people
    with similar musical tastes like to listen to.  I, for one, do not
    listen to HM exclusively and am always looking for new music to
    explore, both within and not within the HM genre.  Reading peoples
    preference from a conference like MUSIC, I have absolutely NO idea what
    the authors generally prefer, and therefore may be leary of getting
    something they recommend. 
    
    I also left out a couple of my absolute favs:
    
    Pete Townsend is probably the best songwriter I can think of.  I also
    like his voice.  The Who were a GREAT band.  Also Pink Floyd has some
    killer stuff.  I like both new and old Floyd. 
    
    gh

                
                I enjoy:

                Janet Jackson
                Samantha Fox
                Flotsam and Jetsam
                Bananarama
                Yes

    RE:,0
    Hey Shawn, do you have Paradise Theatre on album?  If so does yours
    have that laser etching on one side of the album?  It's pretty neat!
    
    				Scott.
    

    I have a Paradise Theater LP with laser etching - it is pretty cool!
    I also have it on half-speed master from Mobile Fidelity (remember
    pre-CD days?), and it sounded killer!
    
    Good band, with my favorite LPs being Paradise Theater, Grand Illusion,
    Equinox, and Crystal Ball. They also did not get enough recognition
    for their concept album of 'Kilroy Was Here" - the story was pretty
    interesting and well-done.
    
    And I like James DeYoung's guitar work!
    
    Sorry to babble on about Styx in the HM file!

    Thanx guys, in these early morning hours my subconscience is very

Fleetwood Mac is OK - Lindsey Buckingham is GREAT!

Although I've always liked FM, all of my favortie songs of theirs are
the ones written and sung by Lindsey Buckingham. "Never Going Back Again",
"Go Your Own Way", "Second Hand News", "Monday Morning" - all are my
faves.

BTW - the best think Buckingham ever did was his solo album, 'Go Insane'.
IMO, this is one of the best pop albums released since 'Sgt. Pepper'. 
Both the songwriting and production are among the finest I have *ever*
heard. (Sounds great on CD!)

    re: .80 Was (not was) does the "dinasaur" tune.
    /MB

    An interesting side note:  Was (Not Was) had Ozzy Osbourn guest
    singing on one of the tunes on their (I believe) first album "Born
    to Laugh at Tornados".  I liked the music they did on this album
    better than the current stuff, which is too dance oriented for me.

    Yeah, I like the old Police stuff too.  I like reggae influenced
    rock in general (I'll probably get blasted for that).  The Police
    had interesting songs!  I particularly like stuff like "Roxanne",
    "Walking on the Moon", the older material.  I dislike Synchronicity,
    though.  I thought it was pretentious and overrated (definitely
    overplayed).

    /Motorbreath...member of the Deadbeat Club

    B52s are hot!  What I've heard of the new one is very good.  Compares
    very well with the older material which impresses me, as groups that
    have "come-back" albums after a long time off often produce
    sub-standard material.

> I love the B52's !

See, Coop!  You lied!  You DO know some new wave!!!!!!  :-)  (I suppose 
that's how you would categorize them!)

This coming from the man that said, "I don't know ANY of those bands you
mentioned"....  

Lately I seem to be getting really into 

	Echo and the Bunnymen
	Mary's Danish


/kath

    Echo and Bunnymen are probably a lot different (and certainly newer)
    than The '52's.  'Sides I said I didn't know much about "Alterenative"
    music.  I know quite a bit about Punk/New Wave.
    
    jc (The original "Moon In The Sky")

    Yo Kathy,
    
    	Mary's Danish are getting good reviews in the music press.
    	Should I go buy their recent release???  What's it like?
    
    	B52's have a new album that's a lot more like their older
    	stuff.  I love the "Love Shack".
    
    	joe.

    
    	Nah...
    	the 52's has the goofiness of their older material, but I think
    it's markedly different than the first two albums. Better as well..
    produced better, better lyrics, better use of Kate and Cindy's 
    vocal 'stylings'...
    
    /Motorbreath... there's more to the B52s career than the first
    album, ya know.

    
    
        I decided the Police are my fav non Metallists.  (Actually it's
    one of the only non-metal albums I own, and I wanted to put
    something...)
    
    Jim
    

    Yo Breath-dude.  I know all about the 52's.  Housework is way
    cool.  It's just that I thought the guitar on this album sounds
    more like a return to the older B52's sound...

	 RE: Mary's Danish

	 Joe...

	 I'm not sure about buying their recent release.  I haven't
	 quite decided (plus, around here I would have to special
	 order it!).  I've heard two singles off the album, and both
	 of them really impressed me (Our alternative station rarely
	 gives names of songs... :-( )  Their lyrics are really
	 wild...I'd probably liken their sound to the Housemartins,
	 but not really....hard to explain.

	 I would definately get a listen to the album before you
	 bought it....(depending on how expensive it is)....  I don't
	 even believe there is a discussion on Mary's Danish in
	 RADIO::RADIO, but I could be wrong....

	 (Aren't I always?!)

    I dunno Scary, KS don't chart over here and we don't have MTV or 
    video shows or anything.  
                            
    It could be "Is this Love". I think thats charted in the US.

    I remember seeing the 'Is this love' video on MTV several times,
    it must be that one!

    Remember the band Vitamin Z???
    
    I visited a friend from Md., and her and all her snobby friends
    called them "Veetamin Zed."
                      
    /Motorbreath...didn't really care for Vitamin Z, but they got me
    into Tears for Fears... "The Hurting" is great!!!

Fisher Z, eh? (And that's the correct spelling!) Its been a long time since 
anyone mentioned that name! I have the album with "So Long" on it, and its OK, 
but (sorry Shawn) they are not one of my "fave" bands. The album was sorta 
boring overall. Then again, "So Long" was sorta boring too.....

No problem. Send me mail....

A couple other bands from that same era that I liked a lot were Angel City 
("No Secrets") and 707 (I forget their hit, but it was a great one).

    	Angel City (I thought it was "Angel Kidd"?) - "(She Keeps)
    	No Secrets" is a GREAT song!!

    Did any of you metal maniacs
    see The Cure's last show at Great Woods saturday night?
    
    I did. It was incredible.
    
    /Motorbreath...won't bore ya with details if you're not interested.

RE: .last


Motorbreath...I saw them when they were out here.....did you catch the Pixies
too?  (Pixies didn't do the whole tour)....

wasn't the light show fabulous!?!  :-)

/kath

    re.Kath
    	Shelly and the Orphans opened for the Cure in Mansfield...
    I skipped them because it was freezing and raining outside
    (plus, we had too many beers left! ;^)
    	The light show was great, but the SOUND was unbelievable!!!
    Sounded better than listening to them on a stereo, it was the
    'biggest' sound, best mix and acoustics of ANY show I've ever 
    been to, and they played a ton of songs, shortening some quite 
    a bit... also most songs from Disintegration.
    I wish they weren't breaking up.... 8^(
    
    /Motorbreath

RE: breaking up....

Robert Smith is going into the studio after this tour to make an album of 
his own.....basically, since Robert Smith IS most fo the CuRE...I have
the feeling we'll still be entertained....

did you hear the Lovecats/?? medley?  (Probably toward the end of the 
concert)

The entire play list of most of the shows is in RADIO_RADIO....we got
2 1/2 hours of music from the Cure....making it a five hour concert....
:-)

/kath

    I heard that there would be at least one more Cure album, besides
    whatever Robert Smith does on his own, just no more tours.
    
    gh

Greg..I'm severly disappointed that I didn't get to see your Robert Smith
impression... :-)

I hadn't heard about one more album, but I wouldn't doubt it....That man
seems to churn out lyrics like its nothing...

/kath

    It was Marks impression (well...mostly, I did join in).  It's more a
    auditory type thing rather then a visual thing (neither of us have two
    or three years to wait for our hair to get that dirty).

	It wasn't a matter of seeing, it was a matter of HEARING.  I
	was unaware that Greg could whine so ... so ... so perfectly!

    Whining like that is a real art form.

    
    If any of you like The Smiths (ack!) they have secretly reformed

	Talk, Talk	- the last two LPs
	Bach, Beethoven, Mozart and many other classics

        Well, I always wanted to know this :
        	
        	Does headbangers listen to Heavy Metal only ?
        
        Guess answer is NO and almost headbangers sometimes listen to
        music except for HM. Ritchie Blackmore loves classic music 
        and Yngwie also loves it.
        
        So,
        
        	What are your favorite albums except for HM ?

re: Del Fuegos

"Move With Me Sister" is on their new album 'Smoking in the Fields', which has 
been out for about 2 months now. Magic Dick from the J. Geils Band plays the 
harmonica on that song, and the rest of the album.

    You're a pretty sick pup, if ya ask me...

	Anyone else out there heard the album simply titled:
	
		Buckingham and Nicks

	The cover shows them both bare from the waist up...really
	no nudity as Stevie is turned sideways holding on to
	the side of Lindsey Buckingham.

	It a pre-Fleetwood/Mac LP that is really quite good.

    Has anybody got any information on a band
    called Quaterflash?
    Are they still going?
    Who's in the band?
    Any info would be greatfully excepted. Thanks in advance
    
                         The_lovedriver
    

    Seemed like they were just a (quarter) flash in the pan.  Had two
    albums of mild commercial rock music that I remember.  
    
    Weren't they from somewhere in Canada?
    
    gh

    
    	I remember:
    
    	"Harden My Heart"
    	"Find Another Fool"
    
    	from the late 70's and early 80's.  Good stuff, and the
    	sax player was good too.
    
    							GTI
    

>    	"Harden My Heart"
>    	"Find Another Fool"

These were both from their first album. I know they had a second album that 
pretty much stiffed. I think it was called "Take Another Picture", or 
something like that. They also had a song or two on a soundtrack about a year 
after that, but I can't remember which one.

>    	from the late 70's and early 80's.  Good stuff, and the

The sax player was Rindy Ross (I thin that's her name - its been a while). She 
was the lead singer and sax player. Her husband was the guitarist.

     I was *lucky* enough to see them in concert - ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
     At least I got some sleep.

    
    Oh !!! cum of IT !!!!!!!
    
    
     Quarter Flash was an Awesome group.  I will say that they definately
    are not Heavy Metal, but I like 'em.

    RE .218 (becuz of .217)
    
     Now there's a memory for me. My band used to cover Angel City's
    "She Keeps No Secrets" back in 1982!  We also did another song by
    them: "Marsailles". I remember the drummer singing the French even
    though he had no idea what he was saying!

It's a French town. I think it is the second largest city, it's located in
the south, and it's an harbor on the mediteranean sea.

I really don't know why they did pick up that name and what the song is about.

	I saw Heart of Stone for the second time at Sir Morgan's Cove
	in Worcester on 5/18, and they were just as good as the first
	time I saw them (2 weeks before).  They were sandwiched bet-
	ween Hang 'Em High (whose guitarist won Boston's Best this
	year) and The Stompers (Boston band - biggest song was "Never
	Tell an Angel").

	Hang 'Em High cranked ... hard rock sound, decent vocals, and
	great guitar work.  I could see how this kid could win Boston's
	Best.  NO TAPPING whatsoever ... straight-forward mix of blues-
	type riffs and medium/fast scales/solos.  Great stuff!!  They
	did a great cover of Joe Walsh's "Walk Away", with the guitar-
	ist on lead vocals, and he sounded fantastic!!  The drummer
	sang on a cover of Aerosmith's "Chip Away the Stone", which was
	also great ... but not as good as "Walk Away".


	Heart of Stone came on next, handicapped with a new guitarist
	who'd only had a week or 2 of practice, but it didn't seem to
	show ... they still cranked.  The vocalist has a great voice,
	and the band does a set of primarily "hardish" love songs ...
	comparable to many Heavy_Metal ballads, but more listenable.
	Their set consisted of:

	TaKe Me There				Speciality *
	On My Way		       		Gotta Get Away *
	Love Don't Mean Nothin' No More *	Rock'n'Roll **
	Signal *				You've Got My Sex
	No Guts No Glory *


	[The asterisked songs are my favorites of theirs.]

	The only problem I noticed was that Ken's keyboard solo got
	lost in the mix somewhere ... and I wish it hadn't, because I
	remembered it to be excellent the first time I saw them.

	I'd definitely recommend catching these guys if you can ...
	well worth the time.



	Then The Stompers took the stage, and I was surprised that the
	turn-out was so small (especially for a Friday night).  These
	guys are supposed to be the classic "party band".  I expected
	to hear a set full of "Never Tell An Angel"-type songs, but I
	was pleasantly surprised to hear a rockin' set full of great
	stuff!!  Sal even played some good guitar, which also surpri-
	sed me for a "poppish" band.

    do you find narrow-mindedness where you come from? I.e,if its not
    really heavy or fast then its not worth listening to? An interesting
    point,me-thinks.
    
    With reference to NKOTB,i hear they`re touring with D.R.I. and EXODUS
    on a 3 band thrash/pop bill around America.Is there any truth in
    this?!!! I also hear that MICHAEL JACKSON is the new lead singer
    for NAPALM DEATH,as there`s nothing more he enjoys than little boys

    	They've got their viewpoints, they're very up on what they
    talk about, very well versed on black history, and though
    I don't choose to question anything they may have to say about
    black history, their music is the most challenging and 
    refreshing rap music out there. They also have a lot of very
    positive messages in their music, and are also very critical
    of some segments of black society.

    This is a question for American and non U.K readers...
    
    Has anyone heard of the MANCHESTER scene?? Although i`m no expert,
    i would roughly describe the music as being a mixture of
    indie,dance,and  60`s influences and bands include HAPPY MONDAYS,STONE
    ROSES,INSPIRAL CARPETS,THE CHARLETONS.
    
    This scene,(taking its name from the northern city,where it all
    started)is getting bigger all the time in the U.K
    
    People who are into it,where big FLARED(!!) jeans,bright garish
    tops,and boots,and have their hair generally fairly long(for
    straights,any way)cut into what i can best describe as floppy curtain
    type fringes. Also the ACID HOUSE scene is massive here as well,and
    i think we`re kinda getting the two things crossing over.Well odd.
    
    Anyway,have any of you Yanks been afflicted yet?? `Cos mark my
    words,you soon will be.

    I caught a tail end of a story about them on MTV. All it showed
    was some reggae looking dudes holding up their album.
    
    

Dred Zeppelin has been kicking around for over a year now. I heard about them 
quite a while ago. Not only do they do reggae versions of Zep songs - which is 
weird enough - but - and I'm not kidding here! - the lead singer is an
Elvis Presley impersonator!

So you have a Elvis doing reggae versions of Zeppelin songs. Too weird!!!!!

alan

    
    Dread Zeppelin are a five peice from California:  Tortelvis, Jor
    Ramsey (aka Joe Zeppelin), Gary Putman (aka Butman), carl Haasis
    (aka Carl Jah) Bruce Fernandez (aka Ed Zeppelin) and Paul Masselli
    (aka Fresh Cheese).  They got the idea from reading an interview
    where Jimmy Page said that LZ used to rehearse Stairway to Heaven
    as a reggae song.  Their initial idea was to do all the LZ albums
    - raggae style, but with Elvis vocals - in chronological order,
    but the tunes on LZ I were too bluesy.
    
    Robert Plant was doing a radio interview and Tortelvis called in
    - they apparently sang Rock a hula baby over the airwaves.  Plant
    says that Dread Zeppelin are great musicians and fantastic
    entertainment.

That was on Rockline, and I was listening to that interview. They didn't
sing any song together (don't know where that came from), but Robert did
mention that he'd seen the band and liked them a lot....

                      -This one should get some reaction-
				(I didn't see any notes or replies 
					about this song)


	There is no sense creating a new note in this conference for
	this person because I am sure that it will be the only 
	"harder rock/heavy metal" song from JANET JACKSON yes Janet
	Jackson.  Janet has a song out (for a few weeks) called 
	"Black Cat".  It is not that bad of a song which I would say
	IS HARD ROCK.  I heard that it was written by Motley Crue.
	I never thought there would be a note about Janet Jackson in
	Heavy Metal, but it almost could be a Heavy Metal song.  There
	is a Heavy-metal-played type guitar in the song and Janet sounds
	a lot like Joan Jett... So has anyone heard it? What do you think?

    	The guitat solo is by Jessie Johnson of the Time. Don't know about

    I thought Nuno wrote the song and played all the guitar parts on it?

>                Does Janet  actually  write them or does she have
>                someone do it in her name?

Neither. Most of the songs on her albums are written by Jimmy Jam and Terry 
Lewis, her producers, and listed in their names. However, Janet wrote or 
co-wrote a couple songs on the latest, including "Black Cat".

re: Black Cat's guitarist

Its funny that over in MUSIC, there was a big arguement over whether it was 
Nuno or Vernon Reid playing the solo. The album lists four guitarists on the
song, but *neither* one of these guys are listed!

alan

    
    
    	Agreed with Tigga.... "Black Cat" was the only song we 	
    	could really boogie to.  Not used to seeing dance artists
    	in concert.  I think it's a great tune...
    

    
    
    	I seem to remember her saying it was Vernon Reid in an 
    	interview on MTV during a special on her.
    
    	Nuno was never mentioned until I heard it in here.
    
    	FWIW
    
    	tigga~~~

    
    
    I pretty sure that Nuno thing is a COMPLETE rumor.  Anyway, I think
    the song is GREAT!!!  I like JJ anyway.  I think it would be cool
    if Janet went a little heavy.
    
    - Kim

    According to NUNO, he produced ( along with Mike Wagener ) the remix
    of Black Cat & played some rythm guit on it. Vernon Reid played
    some lead along with Jesse J.

    NUNO...knows all, tells all...geeesh, if the band ever farts out, he
    can open up a side business as a fortune teller!

    	and ask then, huh! 	(8
    
    	tigg~~~

    No no, it wasn't Nuno OR Vernon, Chris Holmes played that solo (in an
    alcoholic stupor).  He was quoted at the time as saying that since
    Blackie has dumped him he's giving up heavy metal and will be playing
    lots of dance music.  However if you ask him, he doesn't remember it.
    
    gh

	I think that the song is very good.  Before I heard (saw) it the
	first time on MTV they said a new song by Janet Jackson was coming
	up I was about to change the station when they said that see 
	ventured into the world of Heavy-Metal.  I thought I would have to 
	see that..  I was very surprised.  She did a good job.  I would like
	to see Janet keep doing Heavy Metal type songs (she might have a
	future in it).  For now I was wondering what WAAF would say if
	they received a request for Janet Jackson.  It would be interesting
	to find out what they would say.  After all it is a heavy-metal type
	song (if Joan Jett, Lita, or Poison sang "Black Cat" I am sure it
	would be in the Top 9 at 9. It's all in the name.)

    	It's got the typical stuff I expect from rap:
    
    		I'm bad ... watch out.
    		I'm the #1 ladies' man.
    		I have sex until I pass out, and she's never had
    			anyone better.
    
    	So, lyrically, it's not exactly a breakthrough album.  But
    	musically, I like it.  It's bassy, has catchy hooks/choruses,
    	and sounds good when played loud.
    
    
    	There's one song [which I don't remember the name] that is
    	done without any instrumentation, but in their place is a
    	"vocal instrumentation" like you sometimes hear people do.
    	Drum beats and cymbal noises, you know?  Sounds good.
    
    	The ones I like:
    
    	"Stop This Train"
    	"Play That Funky Music"
    	"Ice Ice Baby"
    	[and the aforementioned "vocal instrumentation" song]
    
    
    	And I did listen to "Ice Ice Baby" to compare it to "Under

    the 2nd of 4 parts in a opera called _Ring of the Nibelung_, which is
    all about German mythology.  Here are the operas in order:
    
    1) Das Rheingold
    2) Die Walkuri
    3) Siegfried
    4) Die Gotterdamerung

     Demon's and Wizards ...Return to Fantasy...They were very

    an entertainer and a great acoustic gitbox player.  You could hear a
    pin drop in the place when he was playing this particular song....

    I'd say "Measure For Measure" is their best. Sounds like a mix of

    4 minutes of the most perfect pop ever. Ahh! swoon, swoon. Must

Yup! His wife is Pamela Des Barres, who even wrote a book on the subject. She
was a favorite of Jimmy Page's, among others. I believe she was not a 
plaster-caster, but she was a GTO (Girls Together Outrageously), who were
a collection of LA groupies.

    	pokes fun of Seattle dwellers.
    
    	"Can't Watch This" - parody of "Can't Touch This" by M.C. Hammer.
    	It's a song about all the garbage on TV.  Good song.
    
    	"I Was Only Kidding" - Weird Al original.  This song CRANKS!!  He
    	tells the story about how his girlfriend took everything he told
    	her seriously [I really love you baby ... NOT!!].  Very "punkish"
    	song with subtle wailing guitar in the background.
    
    	"The Plumber" - parody of Milli Vanilli's "Don't Forget My Numb-
    	er".  He also throws in the line "Blame it on the drain" at the
    	end.
    
    	"Taco Grand�" - Weird Al original.  Don't remember too much about
    	it, because I skipped past it on the second listen.
    
    	"When I Was Your Age" - Weird Al original.  He goes through all
    	the exaggerations that the typical parent tells about his child-
    	hood [We didn't have dental floss, we had to use rusty nails].
    	This one cranks, too!!
    
    	"Airline Amy" - Weird Al original.  He tells a story about an
    	airline stewardess named, you guessed it, Amy.  Nothing to write
    	home about.
    
    	"The White Stuff" - parody of "The Right Stuff" by NKOTB.  It's
    	about ... get this: the cream filling in Oreo cookies!!  Funny
    	stuff.
    
    	"Trigger Happy" - Weird Al original.  A "tribute" to gun nuts,
    	done in a "surfer" style [like The Beach Boys or Jan & Dean].
    
    	"You Don't Love Me Anymore" - Weird Al original.  The typical
    	Weird Al ballad ... not too serious.
    
    	And for anyone that has the Nirvana CD and has FF'd past the
    	last song to about 22 minutes or so, try the same thing on this
    	one until you get to about 13 minutes.  There's a "treat" for

    Actually I saw him on Arsenio, and while I was impressed with him as
    a "performer" and even a singer, that kinda music just doesn't do
    anything for me.
    
    On the other hand, I got the impression that playing the "dumb" brother

	See that process name, that hit's The Cramps right on the head...

	I like 'em!  Crossdressed and all...Gothic rock-a-billy
	
	Human Fly, Surfin' Bird, etc....first album, out of print,

    Robbie Krieger wrote "Light My Fire"...   
    

    But he didn't sing "try to get on higher"......
    
    

    ok one point for you. 
    
    But Jim Morrison == The Doors
    
    The Doors without Jim is the same as a computer without a processor.

    I'm not so sure.  I've read quite a bit on the subject and I believe
    that Ray Manzarek was the real mastermind behind The Doors.  Jim was
    just the mouthpiece (a part he played exceptionally well, don't get me
    wrong).  I don't think Jim could have cut it in a band without the
    creative musical minds that the others had.

    How many times have we seen this? A band with a great frontman, doesn't
    contribute musically, sometimes even lyrically. But once he leaves,
    dies, etc.. the band is toast.. 
    
    At least thats from my experiences...

    	I heard "Tones from Home" and loved it, so I picked up the Blind
    	Melon CD last night.  Very good album!!
    
    	I had heard them compared to the Grateful Dead, but I don't see
    	any similarity ... Blind Melon is good.
    
    	8^)

    I can't believe that anyone would compare Blind Melon and the Grateful
    Dead.  These are two TOTALLY different bands with different backgrounds
    and influences.  There are _ZERO_ similarities between the two.  Yet they
    are both excellent bands...:)    
    
    :), dnaielle

    
    	I picked up "The Return of the Hellecasters" by The Hellecasters.
    
    	As you might be able to guess, they are so-named because they play,
    	strangely enough, Telecasters.  Excellent band!!  They jam, for a
    	non-HM band.
    
    	Included is a cover of "Peter Gunn", with a vox-box solo towards
    	the end.

    	My sister picked up a 3-CD set called "The Romance Collection -
    	Just the Two of Us" at Wal-Mart for $16 or so a couple days ago.
    	After getting it home, she played the 1st CD and quickly realized
    	it was all remakes ... no original artists perform the songs.  And
    	nowhere on the packaging [inner/outer/CD's] does it say this.
    
    	It is put out by the Special Music Company, in case anyone happens
    	to see it anywhere and is thinking of buying it.
    
    	Sounds like false advertising to me.
