Distribution: world

Frank J Sereno quotes critic David Browne of 'Entertainment Weekly' :
   
  "It's ridiculous to continue thinking of rock as standing for anything it
once did--rebellion, anxiety, teen hormonal frenzy, distrust of
authority.  And the rock inaugural is also definitive, saddening proof
that rock 'n' roll is now merely music, merely entertainment..."

I think that the definition offered -- rebellion, etc. -- is much more
of a "merely" than music; what DBrown seems to feel rock should be would
preclude its enjoyment by anyone matured past high school age. It would
be something outgrown, like cutting class, or smoking in the boys' room.
Now, I'm all for staying young (don't even _think_ about calling me a
grownup), but that has a lot more to do with observing the world with
wonder, with holding some ideals, and with not taking things too
seriously, than with hormones and teen angst.

Neil Young is a perfect example of this. He has matured, and grown to
appreciate, well, family life -- picking up the kids in a Dodge Caravan
-- but he still can write wonderful, introspective songs. Sure, he gets
pissed-off, and a little rebellious, but he's grown way beyond "We're
Not Gonna' Take It", and we can be thankful for it. Instead he gives us
thoughtful music, from the eyes of an artist; should we have to abandon
rock music to the teenyboppers and turn on some Glenn Miller to get
that? (Nothing against Glenn Miller, of course)

In the book that came with the Chicago box set, Robert Lamm (the guy who
wrote 25 Or 6 To 4 and keyboard player for Chicago) says that the title
refers to the time of day and that the song itself is just a song
about writing a song.

Actually, it refers to "The Blimp" from the album _Trout Mask Replica_ by
Captain Beefhart and his Magic Band, which was produced by Mr. Zappa.  (The
music on the track was actually performed by the Mothers of Invention, though
Beefhart provided the vocal part.)

Well, you might have seen the release for "Best of Vol. 2", but
I think that's already out.  As to being back together, I kind

Shane had problems with alcohol (unfortunatly). So the band replaced him with

Although Joe does his job VERY well, I miss Shane a lot.

Please e-mail me with your reviews and stories or just follow-up

	Hi. 

	I'd like to know if anyone has or knows where one can find a complete/
almost complete listing of all Pink Floyd lyrics from 'Pipers at the Gates of 
Dawn' to 'Momentary Lapse of Reason'.  While most can be found on the albums,
themselves, not all of the albums list the lyrics.

	Also, on 'The Wall', the song "Waiting for the Worms" has a long
segment where the vocalist (I assume Roger Waters) goes off on a long tirade
towards the end of the end. Unfortunately what is being said is obscured by the
cheereing of a maddening crowd. 
	If anyone knows what 'Pink' is actually shouting, please post/or let 
me know.

I would just like to second that. I know that Pink Floyd are meant to be
releasing an Album and touring very soon but then rumours to that affect
have been flying around for a couple of months. I heard May, can someone
verify that????

Also if anyone has any rare Floyd hopping around I would dearly Love to

Yes-  Big hit was "All the young dudes" written by D. Bowie.  It was one of
the songs performed at the tribute to F. Mercury.  Also another well(?) known
hit was "All the way to memphis".  PS.  One of Mott the Hooples members went

Also, one of the local classic rock radio stations had the Raleigh Bell Choir
come into the studios around Christmas time. Along with all the regular
Christmas music, they played a version of "Stairway" on the bells. It 
actually wasn't that bad. I'm scared though. They are working on a bell 
version of "Bohemian Rhapsody" for next year.

I used to work at a restaurant, and we'd turn it down so we wouldn't have to
listen to it and the customers wouldn't bitch.   But I remember hearing
"Sympathy for the Devil" and "Rock and a Hard Place" by the Stones.
