That would have been interesting.

Downtown Money Waster - I could have came up with a better choice than that one.

The version they did of Blackbird from the late 60s is alright. I bet Neil is shaking his head.

There is also an interview he did with Alex and Geddy up on Youtube.

I think it is a trend that became the thing to do in recent years due to the success of Rod Stewart's cover albums. I just believe it is a bit pathetic that now a lot of old bands, washed up bands, etc. put out a cover album. I am not really a fan of such things to begin with - so that is part of it. I think they should just tour and play the hits, that is all anyone wants to hear anyway. Here's a set list from last week: Why in the hell should CSN be singing Stones/Beatles/Who songs? It makes no sense to me.

I tried to put aside my aversion to such things and listen to it with an open mind, but it just did not do anything for me. Maybe the studio version will be better. I just don't understand why they are doing covers though. I guess they are unable to come with any new material.

Of course, what is funny to me is that Rod Stewart and Santana are two of the dudes that really move me. But - they are reduced to putting out crap now. I am curious to know how Jeff ended up in that mix.

Oh I believed it. I just hate that formula as much as I hate the cover album formula.

That's insult to both bands.

Bob Weir’s Gnarly Border Crossing: Fact and Fiction I think the info is wrong about the 1967 arrest. I am curious to know.

A live preview of the upcoming covers album. It sounds pretty lifeless to me.

No big deal.

Check out this thread.

Ryan Adams Working on Cold Roses’ "Evil Twin"

I was wondering about that also. Apple Records Goes Digital

I use to have Purple Rain on tape back in the day. I don't think I have ever owned a Prince album since. Not really my cup of tea, as they say.

They do play that a lot. You can't beat the original version anyhow.

I would be surprised if they ended up signing other bands. I think it will be a label in name, with the music distributed by some other company. There seems to be a lot of that sort of thing going on these days.

I read somewhere a while back that he was having money problems, and yesterday, I heard that he was thinking of moving to France. Maybe he is going to go to work as a Jehovah's Witness missionary.

I've noticed shows have been popping up recently. I am looking forward to hearing the acoustic shows.

Another article - not much new info, really. I still have not seen a full tracklist for Croweology. I have not looked in a while though. Black Crowes Hiatus Will Be 'Positive,' Says Chris Robinson

I have always liked The Simpson's version: Number Eight Paul McCartney Joins Ringo Starr Onstage in New York

True - but they usually don't have a page on Amazon.com. There is no reason to buy bootlegs these days, unless someone is a bootleg collector, or a freak for fancy packaging.

It may still be a bootleg. I am surprised Columbia has not put the breaks on this yet. Sometimes, things fall into a so-called "grey area".
