I was not disappointed. Speaking of Aja, I had the great honor of interviewing drummer Steve Gadd here in Rochester about a year and a half ago. Sadly, the article did not get published, (long, long story, stupid editor tricks.) but he was the nicest and gracious of gentlemen. He is a Rochester native, and was still living here at the time.Mr. Nighttimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09546329409708860876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342018740029766616.post-27642705568306085252008-06-25T14:18:00.000-04:002008-06-25T14:18:00.000-04:00I noticed in your profile you had Pat Metheny list...I noticed in your profile you had Pat Metheny listed. When I 'discovered' him I could find very few people who had heard of him, or cared. I felt very alone in my musical tastes. Also with Weather Report and Steely Dan's 'Aja'. I still have that album, and am now going to play it again for nostalgia's sake.<BR/><BR/>P.S. BTW thanks for the falconcam link. Interesting how every one takes a slightly different approach to their site. Last year I was a part of falconwatch and I got so attached to the guys that I missed them when they finally flew off on their own.VioletSkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222821877918680480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342018740029766616.post-771616830938358862008-04-25T21:05:00.000-04:002008-04-25T21:05:00.000-04:00Hey GG,Ledbelly was the nickname for Huddie Ledbet...Hey GG,<BR/>Ledbelly was the nickname for Huddie Ledbetter, one of the the foremost blues singers of his time. He had a huge influence on many modern blues singers, especially people like Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and a host of others. <BR/><BR/>You can catch Eric Clapton doing one of Ledbelly's songs, "Alberta," here:<BR/><BR/>http://youtube.com/watch?v=abEqvdhRSk8Mr. Nighttimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09546329409708860876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7342018740029766616.post-70452858169885168242008-04-25T18:03:00.000-04:002008-04-25T18:03:00.000-04:00Hi Suspect, my second brother [the one who lives i...Hi Suspect, my second brother [the one who lives in Florida where you don't like :-D ] introduced me to Leadbelly, king of the 12 string guitar, now I don't know what kinda music that is, but he's rather interesting. <BR/><BR/>When I'm filthy stinking rich I'm going to buy every kind of music to listen to and a good sound system.<BR/><BR/>Sigh.neena maiya (guyana gyal)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01358313821005038118noreply@blogger.com
