Ahhh memories! 1984 one Kool yearMarch 20th, 2007Summer of 1984. My band, Distant Thunder used to do this cover song. Kool & The Gang - Tonight (Solid Gold) Forget Michael Jackson and Springsteen. To me the 80’s was ALL about Prince, Motley Crue, Van Halen and Kool & the Gang: — From Wikipedia —- Kool & the Gang is a highly successful American R&B/soul/funk/disco group. They originally formed in Jersey City, New Jersey in 1964. They went through several musical phases in their career. They started out as practitioners of R&B and funk, eventually went through a phase where they were a smooth disco ensemble, and wound up the successful period of their career recording tunes that were a mixture of pop and R&B.
Kool & the Gang is one of the most sampled artists of all time. Always loved them. Always will.

Seems their 3 year exile did them some good, lots of soul searching, Rick Rubin producing… I have to buy this CD! Proving once again the RIAA is dead wrong about MP3’s. I like to sample before I buy. And it’s really hard for die hard conservatives to keep screaming their career is over, considering “Taking The Long Way” has been the #1 album on Billboard’s top 200, Country and Canadian charts since it’s debut… LOL!!! (You guys are killing me here!) Read the rest of this entry »

Let us make MLK in OUR image, after our likenessJanuary 16th, 2006“Usually when people are sad, they don’t do anything. They just cry over their condition. But when they get angry, they bring about a change.”
-Malcolm X “Be that change you want to see in the world.”
-Ghandi
Usually on this day, I can look all over the web and someone, somewhere is reshaping Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. into a supporter of their cause. You name it. He’s for/against the Iraq War, he’s suddenly a vegan and a card-carrying member of PETA, he’d join the fight for gay marriage. Frankly, I doubt the last one. As a man of the cloth, I’d imagine his view of homosexuality would be very much the same as any religious figure… I *DO* see the parallels, and this is a matter of Civil Rights and equality… and even in his own words “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere” ring true in this case.

Wow! I’m listening to an Mp3 of the Dixie Chicks’ “Not Ready To Make Nice”… and I must say I’m impressed! I’ve heard their music before and country/bluegrass isn’t my thing… they’re more polished now, nice crossover-pop feel. I like it!
