Re: 1987 Bruce Thomas Interview
Here come the scans of the magazine pages, three at a time. I hope this is ok; it's the first time I've ever uploaded anything here. I'll get add the cover of the magazine once I get a chance to scan it. Obviously the first two pages are supposed to face each other so that the neck joins the body of...

1987 Bruce Thomas Interview
Hi All - I remembered this interview from a magazine I had in high school; I don't think I've seen it posted anywhere. I scanned the actual article but had trouble attaching it to my post - help, anyone? Anyway, although various parts of this interview have been retold elsewhere, what I think is int...

Re: Elvis debuting new recording on 7" vinyl
I actually just picked up a copy at the Newbury Comics in Harvard Square for all of $2.99. I couldn't find the 45 on the store's website, but for those of you in the New England area, it's worth a stop or a call: http://www.newburycomics.com/rel/v2_home.php?storenr=103&deptnr=60 ...there were se...

Il Songo Last Night
Evidently, the Boston Pops kept Il Songo in their repertoire for last night's concert with My Morning Jacket. From the Boston Globe's review: ...Ironically, the first half of the program was more provocative and eclectic than the symphonic rock set. Bjork's bittersweet ``Overture," Christopher ...

El Vez, Somethin' Else is the Cannonball Adderley album to get. I've heard that Miles Davis put the band (Miles, Hank Jones, Sam Jones, Art Blakey) and the session together as a thank-you to Cannonball for joining the Davis quintet. It's really only nominally an Adderley album, but Cannonball plays ...

There's also an interview with Martin Belmont, though it's much more guitar-specific, and he doesen't get into his time as an Attraction very much:

I also saw them in September - at The Paradise in Boston, and it was a blast. He favored material from his last three albums (no complaints there!) but also included a good helping of older material and some unrecorded songs. He's really amiable with the audience and VERY funny. I also really liked ...

A sketch is usually a score written on two staves - looking like piano music - rather than an individual line for each instrument in the score. Sometimes more staves are added to clarify the lines. When you're writing a sketch, you're just getting the ideas onto the page, and aren't worried about pr...

I think the Gibson acoustic has two pickups and outputs. The single-coil pickup at the neck connects to a jack on the bottom of the body: http://www.guitar.co.jp/list/gibson/gibson_j-160e_new.htm But in Boston, I noticed that he also had a cord connected to a strap-button jack, probably to a piezo-t...
