It would be nice to see that footage where they are sitting around playing acoustically.

I think The Notorious C.H.O. is the only comedy special of hers I can recall watching.

I use to watch her show All American Girl (1994-1995).

I recall a bunch of mullet hessians getting rather upset he played on a MJ album. I didn't really listen to it yet.

Yea - I am not buying the new album. It will be the first time I have passed on a new PJ album. It's cool to see them doing Leaving Here. That must be due to Eddie's love of The Who. The Who - Leaving Here

Fun fact: I was remembering hearing Under A Blood Red Sky back in the day and wondering why Alan Gratzer (REO Speedwagon drummer) was playing in a new wave band. I misunderstood young Bono when he was saying the band members names.

By way of Rolling Stone:

They must have got some tapes from Mountain Girl. That must be who Dave was talking about when he briefly mentioned acquiring tapes recently. According To Rolling Stone:

The Adventures of Danny and Mike (The two dudes from The Adventures of Pete and Pete) (Ok - after actually listening to this, it's pretty much crap.) Maybe they will come up with something better down the road.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Criteria (Terry Stewart):

That was the first one. I believe there were several sketches featuring the character over a period of 4 years or so.

I forgot about that - they did do a KISS song.

Interview with Blondie Chaplin: I saw that thread about the Brian/Jeff Beck tour. I would like to see one of those shows. Good thing there is Youtube. He mentions Wild Honey - that's a great song.

The Clash - The Last Gang In Town

That's interesting. I'm not much for the 80s, besides metal bands, R.E.M., and U2 (and some others I can't think of at the moment.) I can't recall how I got to alt-country. That's probably the last "new musical genre" I will ever get into. I suppose I champion these old dinosaur bands from the 60s-70s because that is about all I listen to anymore. Whenever these announcements come out I like to look around at other message boards I frequent and see what they say. Sometimes they are about what we post here, sometimes vastly different.

The Deep Purple re-masters from some years back are really nice - full of liner notes, and extra tracks. Like the great song - When A Blind Man Cries. Deep Purple is another one of those bands I have been into since I was a kid. I think I learned about them about the same time I learned of The Kinks.

Now I am remembering that Christmas video they made. If Deep Purple gets in, it will be interesting to see who shows up. Since Gillian and Blackmore hate each other - I don't see them on stage together. Oddly enough, the photo Rhino has up at Facebook shows the Coverdale/Bolin line-up.

I suppose everyone has in their mind what the deal is all about. I believe I think of "how big a band was", "original sound (i.e The Cars)", "longevity" and maybe a few other things. What I listen to, and who I am into is probably very narrow compared to a lot of people here. But - I love KISS and I am also down with the Velvet Underground. And also don't forget how big the KISS Army is - those people are probably driving up the votes. I can tell you that I was a teenager in the early 1980s, and I hate Hall & Oates.

They should have been in a long time ago. KISS are one of the biggest American bands of all times. Really, they are what rock and roll is all about. I suppose I am a bit biased, I have been listening to them since 1976.

Mike Bloomfield and Elvin Bishop - you can't go wrong with that combination.

It must be about the same deal that allows whoever it is doing the Dick's Picks re-releases to put them out. It seems odd to me.

I have 3 stereo systems. It's just something I would not buy unless I could get it on cd. I only buy old records, and never pay more than 10 bucks for a record. I was wondering that also. I am surprised whoever controls the Jerry estate didn't put the brakes on the release.

I'd like to have that - but not on vinyl.

It's good to see KISS, Deep Purple, and Yes on the list.
