Well! Last week's number one, "Inquisition" by Skinny Puppy dropped off (it
was number one based on one person voting 10 times for it) completely, and
RHCP debuted at number one.  The hot new release by Def Leppard ("Let's get 
rocked") might be a song to keep an eye on.  Please keep voting from week
to week, and I'll send out the Democratic Chart from the middle of the U.S.
(Kansas) to the reaches of the newsgroups. 
 
If you want to participate, send me e-mail and I'll incorporate you 10 votes
(include rank like 1,2,3, etc.) into the chart and post it on ALT.ROCK-N-ROLL,
ALT.MUSIC.ALTERNATIVE, and REC.MUSIC.MISC*. If you want a personal copy sent
to you each week, just let me know, and I'll add you to the subcription list.

If I recall correctly (and I might not be):

They did 3 old Van Halens (You Really Got Me, Jump, and Panama)
3 Old Sammy Hagars (Give to Live, I Can't Drive 55, Only One Way to Rock)
and the rest were 5150 and onward. Made for a really nice mix.


Oh, yeah... Michael Anthony did Sunday Afternoon in the Park as part of his bass
solo. Good to hear Mike playing something we can all appreciate...

Come on.... you are right that the reply to Suaron was a bit out of line, but
where do you get off trying to decide on musical talent and "true" musicians?
Did you get a visitation from God that told you that you were now able to
distinguish between true and false musicians?

Or does your definition of being a true musician mean that the person has to
agree with your tastes or at least hate the same bands you do?

I am acquainted with at least ten "true" musicians that not only are very well
respected musically, but could probably play the shit out of you on any
instrument you would care to choose... not sure about that but definitely sure
about the first... and at least half of them like Def Leppard, or at least
Collen's axe-work.

Don't get too carried away in your own little world of musical assumption
because it soon becomes apparent that you are as much of an asshole as the
rest of them...

Well, my guess is you'd say A,B,W,H's tour was much better--  Here I'd have to
disagree.  I have seen both the UNION tour and the A,B,W,H also; as well as the
BIG GENERATOR tour.  Out of the 3 I most throughouly enjoyed the UNION tour. 
It was neat seeing all the old and new members of YES playing what they do best!
--"Orchestral Rock" is what I like to call it.  Granted, I saw A,B,W,H in 
Hampton, VA where they were filming a video for MTV ("Order of the Universe")
and had to listen to the song 3 times!!!  But, the crowd of MTV teeny-boppers
didn't help either, and it reflected in the bands performance.

Ok... I am a very anti-Firehouse pop metal person, but without flaming
or anything I'm curious as to exactly WHAT about them makes you like
them.  I mean they're certainly NOT great technical musicians, but maybe
they actually MAY have some redeeming qualities (although *I* PERSONALLY
can't find anything good about them).  I repeat this is NOT intended as
a prelude to flames, I'm just curious.

I must agree.  Tony Leven is the greatest "Second Greatest Bassist" there
is.

When you can't get your regular bassist, or you need an excellent bassist
for studio sessions - Tony is the first choice.

When Yes couldn't get Squire, they got Tony.

When Pink Floyd finally got rid of Roger(not especially known for his bass
playing) they got Tony.

Of course bands that actually FEATURE levin, like King Crimson and Peter
Gabriel's band are phenomenal.

Tony's work with ABWH was interesting because Bruford/Levin is the rhythm
section from Crimson - that gave it a distinctly non-YES kind of bass work.
Chris Squire would play melodies on his bass that provided counterpoint to
the guitar and keyboard.  Levin provides rhythm only.  

Incidently, the Bruford/Levin solo was the high point of ABWH in concert.
