  1. Well, they say that Santa Fe Is less than 90 miles away And I got time To roll a number And rent a car Oh, Albuquerque I've been flyin' down the road And I've been starvin' to be alone And independent From the scene that I've known Oh, Albuquerque So I'll stop where I am Find some fried eggs & country ham I'll find somewhere Where they don't care who I am Oh, Albuquerque
  2. I have that book & it's definitely frightening...Schlosser comes off like a 21st century Sinclair.
  3. It's Sunday afternoon, eh? NP: Neil & the Horse: Fillmore East Mar. '70.
  4. Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris doin' either " Forget the Flowers" or "Someday Soon".
  5. Wow. That's a great one there. David Nelson Band doin' the late-night "Was I In Your Dreams" w/ Barry on the pedal steel.
  6. Satan. Oh you meant other BANDS... ok , how about My Chemical Romance.
  7. Oh God no. I really hope this is bogus reporting. And yes, I was in the Army after seeing Kiss in '76..my first show (age 14). Ace was my favorite guy in that band.
  8. Many congrats to you Boots! I will have a Bell's Hopslam in your honor after work.
  9. I find myself pining for adventures in the somewhat-specific 'Swedish style". Best of luck to you, Mr. Baab, in meeting with my Mid-Western breathren Mr. Jeff. I will drink this Bass Ale in your honor.
  10. Genesis--Shrine Auditorium, LA 1/24/75 SBD The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway in its entirety. It rarely gets better than this.
  11. I used to get The Nation. Very good stuff. I like to hit Z Net as well.
  12. WOW! Your dad seen one of the great ones. If I've had enough booze & cigarettes scarring my throat I do a pretty good impersonation of Most's call on that (it annoys my family, anyway ) I do remember that team...good times man.
  13. Thanks man for the heads up with an excellent post. I was in a quandary about how this was gonna be, wondering if it was worth the $$. I appreciate!
  14. Carlos Santana/ John McLaughlin/ Doug Rauch/ Armando Peraza/ Billy Cobham---International Amphitheatre, Chicago IL 11/10/73 SBD
  15. Here's one from the good old daze when the TV preachers were finally beginning to be seen for what they were/are: "Oral still needed more. God's price, said Richard on TV, was not just 8 million, but '8 million above & beyond our normal operating expenses'. In other words, God was talking net-- not gross-- and he wanted his 8 big ones in a brown bag by the midnight hour on April Fools Day. And he WILL get his money, there is no doubt at all about that. Oral Roberts is a greed-crazed white trash lunatic who should have been hung upside down from a telephone pole on the outskirts of T
  16. I know I've mentioned this before (to Lammy & others) that perhaps my single favorite HST article was for a 1994 RS issue. It was also in the book "Better Than Sex", appropriately in Chapter 666 titled "The Death of Richard Nixon". It is the most vicious, mean-spirited piece of journalism you'll ever read...except you will also weep with joy at Hunter's eulogy to the man who was his nemesis, and gave his career a 'focus'. I really can't recommend this article enough.
  17. I just read this whole thread. All I can say is wow! Jeff & Sue, you are truly an amazing couple. I just want to thank you for doin' what you do! And Judy, that kid of yours...all I can say is it makes me pine for when my daughter was wee (she's 16 now). Absolutely adorable.
  18. It's hard to convey the sadness I felt when I heard the news 2 years ago that HST had shot himself. What Jerry Garcia was to me musically, Hunter was to me in the literary world...someone I felt spoke for me. I know there's fans here.. maybe you all could speak about how HST's work affected you. Although I have been a fan of all the "New Journalism" people ( Burroughs, Mailer, Kerouac, and to a lesser extent Wolfe) Hunter's stuff just resonated with me like no one else. "Fear & Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72" was partially responsible for turning me into a political junkie. It show
  19. God bless you Kate, and Graham too. That just warms my heart. Be careful, but give 'em hell! I'll be thinking of you guys.
  20. "Exile" is a fantastic record. But for me, "Beggar's Banquet" is the one...I really just love every single song on that record. I must have heard "Sympathy for the Devil" thousands of times & when Keef kicks in with that solo it always kills me.
  21. Happy Birfday Benjamin! The Big 3-oh. Guess it's time to do away with foolishness... Now if you'll excuse me, I have to practice my air-guitar.
