I listened last week to an album called "Little Earthquakes" by Tori
Amos. I found this album wonderful, but I know nothing about Tori
herself. Could someone give some information on this singer?

H'mm... Out of the OLD Roger Dean covers, Relayer would probably also be
one of my fav's, but also Yessongs because of the funky border work. Although
I was quite impressed with the artwork on _Union_ (too bad the music is
another story...sigh).

Do you have any on Dean's art books published by Paper Tiger? Bloody
amazing stuff. As an art student, Roger Dean is one of my biggest influences.
Wow.

No, she attacked an entire religion.

Imagine yourself in the shoes of a Catholic that watched this on TV.
I would be big-time pissed.  Hell, I'm not Catholic and I was still
pissed!  She didn't stand there and say, "Hey, the Pope is wrong in his
stance on contraception."  She tore up a very strong symbol of the 
Catholic faith and yelled "fight the real enemy."  A very STRONG attack
against an entire religion.

The original version of this was by a Jamaican DJ/toaster named
Dillinger in about '79. The track was released by Mango/Island
as a single, and was on the "CB2000" LP (I think).

Currently there are two releases which use Dillinger's voice. 
One is by a group called Tribal Underground whose 12" samples
Dillinger over a ridiculously fast techno rhythm (the kind
you can only appreciate on some variation of methamphetamines).

The other release is a re-release of Dillinger's original with
different mixes, including rave style and a cool remix featuring
Sly Dunbar and Lloyd "Gits" Willis, ina JA hiphop style. This
one is on the UK Black Swan label (an old Island subsidiary,   
resurrected).

Hope this helps.

That was done by the Buoys in '71. As Far as I know it was their only hit.
I managed to pick up the 45 at a used record sale.  Interestingly, that song
was written by Rupert Holmes, who had a hit with "Escape (the Pina Colada 
Song)" in '79.

Perhaps that was my problem--I bought the single, liked it, and bought
the album on that basis, only to be disappointed by the mainstream
sound of the originals.  Yes, I know the originals of ZofC and Habebe
were on the single...I guess the remixes blinded me. :-)

Subject: Elton John Charity Single for AIDS
Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 1992 21:20:49 GMT

Elton John has a new single out -- The A Side is "The Last Song" from his 
latest album of new material, "The One".  Elton has announced that all of his 
proceeds from this and all subsequent North American singles will go to 
charity.  His proceeds from his noon-North American singles 
since 1990's "Sacrifice" have already been going to charity. 

The idea for "The Last Song"  was conceived by Elton's long-time lyricist
Bernie Taupin.  It's lyrics work on differnt levels.  It is a song about a 
son who has AIDS and as the son is dying he is reconciled in forgiveness
with his father.  The song can also be read as song of unconditional forgive-
ness on the part of "the higher power".

Two additional songs are included as B-sides to the Cassette single.  
One is "The Man Who Never Died", an instrumental written in honor of
John Lennon.  This is one of two tributes to Lennon in 1981 (the other being
"Empty Garden (Hey, Hey Johnny)" from 1982's "Jump Up!" album recently
re-released on CD in North America by MCA).  "The Man Who Never Died" was 
previously released as  B-side to 1985's "Wrap Her up"
in North America and "Nikita" in the rest of the world.

The second B-side is "Song For Guy", from the 1978 album "A Single Man".
While writing this instrumental one Sunday afternoon Elton was preoccupied 
with a "morbid" thought of death and the "other side".  The next day Elton
learned that Guy Burchett, Rocket Record's 17-year-old messenger boy
for the album, had died on the day Elton wrote the instrumental.
"Song For Guy" was a top five single in the UK during Christmas 1978.

One can get the cassingle at many record stores; alternatively one can
order the cassingle by calling 1-800-695-AIDS.  It is unclear as to whether
this cassingle will be released by MCA on a CD single as his previous
two singles from "The One" were.

Proceeds from the sale of the single will benefit AIDS Project Los Angeles;
Gay Men's Health Crisis, Inc.; Hollywood Supports; Pediatric Aids
Foundation; Project Open Hand; and Ryan White Children's Fund at James 
Whitcomb Riley Hospital For Children.

To reiterate above all else (boy I'm almost sorry I started this flurry
of Frankie stuff a few weeks ago...), I'm _still_ looking for the original
US release (Island 7 90232-2) with the long "Two Tribes" and deleted "Ferry"
and "San Jose" in favor of "Happy Hi!".  I _have_ the new US pressing, but
I _want_ the old one, or the UK version (as mentioned above).  I WILL PAY $$$.
My earlier attempts failed to find a copy for sale.  Please e-mail.

If anyone is interested, I have the compete track listings of every release
of this CD.  Mail for info.

Well surely it would have been interpreted as a sign that God didn't want the
Pope's picture torn up.  Since he didn't apparently mind, maybe he feels the

KWKH is right.  Live from the Municipal Auditorium in Shreveport, Looo-siana.
Some guy named Hank Williams also used to play the Hayride, along with a group
called "Johnny and Jack," who had a girl singer named Kitty Welles.  Feller
from Panola County named Jim Reeves, and "Lester, Leslie, Doyle and Theodore,
The Wilburn Fam-i-leeee!"  I'd say it was pretty much country.

NOTE:  Elvis did some local touring in those days.  We saw him, along with
Scotty and Bill, at the Gaston High School Auditorium in the spring of 1954.
Student admission was twenty-five cents. Wish I still had one of those tickets.

Hi! I am a new poster to the country music news group.  I noticed too and
wondered what could be wrong with Garth.  He did appear to be quiet and
about to cry - I think he feels guilty when it comes to his wife Sandy.  
I've heard rumors about his infidelity.  Could someone enlighten me on these
rumours as I just started to follow Garth's career - I love him and his music.
My little girl of 6 loves him too - she knows almost every word of every one
of his songs.  We play country music all the time and I like to think that
one day she may become a county singer. Ha Ha!  Does anyone happen to know of
a fan club or maybe an address that we can write to him (I am not really into
the fan club thing) but an address would be nice.

After reading all this crap about, "Its not country...blah, blah"
I was wondering what you people consider country?  And where is
the rule book that says that if it isn't pure and strictly
country, it isn't any good?  

I mean everytime a new song comes out that most people in the nation
obviously like, (judging by sales and charts etc..) people here on
rec.music.country bash it?  

Seriously, what is country to you?  Does it matter where the singer
grew up or if the singer is stereotypical "country?"

I just dont see the point...especially when the real "country" people
I know love Garth, and the others you bash.  I would venture to say
that the people doing all the "that isnt country" talk, dont have
the first clue about being country is...

But I still dont like BRC

DAC is on of my favorites too! His "10 years of hits" or something like that
is a good collection of songs. Some of my favorites:

You Never Even Called Me by My Name
	"I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison"
Willie, Waylon, and Me
	"The Eagles flew in from the west coast, like the Byrds they were
	 trying to be free"
Longhaired Redneck
	"Where the bikers stare at cowboys, who are laughing at the hippies, 
         who are praying they'll get out of here alive"
If That Ain't Country
	"Coal burning stove, no natural gas, and if that ain't country I'll
	 kiss your ass"

Other favorites:

The Ride, Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile, Would You Lay With Me in a Field of Stone,
Divers Do It Deeper, Stand By Your Man, Please Come to Boston,

and if you're  into cheating songs:

Now I Lay Me Down to Cheat

Great stuff!!

Aw-w-w, c'mon.  It's a _SONG_, not a sermon.  It's telling a story, not
advocating a position.  Isn't _this_ morality thing going a little bit
TOO far????

We've had this discussion with someone related to the band - just
because I sing the songs doesn't mean I advocate the message.  I just
like the song.  It doesn't matter if I'm singing a Hank, Jr. boogie-
till-you-puke song, or a bluegrass gospel get-down-on-your-knees-or-
burn-forever tune.  I'm singing the song.  I'm not necessarily taking
the missionary position on the damn thing.

Hey!  What about Marty???????!!!!!!!

I saw them both when they were touring -- still can't bring myself to
shell out money to watch PPV.  They are great, both separately and 
together.

I just bought a CD full of old recording from back when Marty was the
boy wonder picking the guitar and mandolin with Lester Flatt and/or
Earl Skruggs.  Great! Has anyone else heard it?  I also managed to pick
up some of Marty's first solo attempts.  Let's just say he's picking better
material now . . . .
