Re: Floyd Tillman comp/ Jimmy Wakely
Don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet but there is a new cd that just came out on Glad called Herb Remington Instrumentally Salutes Floyd Tillman. I believe Remington was in the Texas Playboys. I haven't heard it yet but it sounds awful interesting. Flippo

Re: SOTD
Thought I would bring up Rich Brotherton just because I don't think he's been mentioned yet. Flippo
Re: Changing Subject Lines
Most alt-country albums are undistinguished, cliche-ridden mediocrities (the new albums from the Damnations and Krebs being two very big exceptions). I bought the new Hadacol cd a few weeks ago and haven't been able to stop playing it. Definitely my favorite of the year so far. Wondering if anyone has seen them live yet? John Flippo
Re: Jeff Lynne
If you get rid of Jeff Lynne then don't you then have to get rid of The Traveling Wilbury's? No way. -Original Message- From: Jerry Curry [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: passenger side [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Saturday, February 27, 1999 12:07 AM Subject: Re: Jeff Lynne On Sat, 27 Feb 1999, Bill Silvers wrote: I think we even got Lynne-defender Jerry Curry to sorta kinda agree to the truth of his mishandling of Dave Edmunds best sound on those two records, though he maintained those were still big sellers for DE. And Dave was often twangy- it was great material for him, and he did it well. Thing is, Dave's been trying to make a comeback ever since those Lynne-produced releases. Hmm, as card-carrying member #1 (hey, where'd everybody else go?) of the Jeff Lynne fan club...I've got to rise to his defense here and.."oh, forget it, too damn tired!" I like him even though insert very low whisper there was a certain "sameness". However, it's a sameness that I have always found to be pleasing to these ears. And YES!I found _Information_ to be a wonderful departure for Mr. Edmunds. I'll admit that I wouldn't be nearly as fond of Dave E. if each/every album had sounded like that one. NP: Jeff Lynne - Armchair Theater - Really! Jerry
critics
Since there has been some discussion about critics lately I was wondering who you all considered to be the most respected and influential critic to be. Doesn't have to be current. Flippo
