ROCKOLLECTIONS: ALL SAINTS PT.1

[Mike Pell]

Rockollections finally falls on November 1st, All Saints Day!
So no Halloween show this year, but instead a sort of Anti-Halloween show.
And you should know that without All Saints Day, there is no Halloween!
I will cover that, but mostly I'll take a Rock & Roll look at the Saints.
Including the peculiar matter of St. Christopher, that patron of Safe Travel, being taken off the Saintly Roster.
We'll have some fun with this, so I invite you to join me for these heavenly episodes!

Here are the links to start our Trip To Those Pearly Gates, at Mike Pell Rockollections:

I speak truth.... don't make me quote scripture proving that the dead suck

I heard about Saint Christopher. And that was that. I basically said "Oh" and forgot about it. Now I know about it again and will forget about it again.

Really? No work on All Saints Day? Wonder if anyone follows that rule. I don't, I'm Episcopalian and we don't really do anything. We're mellow.

Don't know why someone wouldn't like the Grateful Dead. Doesn't sound "saintly" to me. Though saints were supposed to accept everyone and everything? FALSE PROPHET ON THIS THREAD!!!!!!!

Since I am "the" Saint on here, I thought I better chime...

Cant say I'm much a Van Morrison fan, but that opener was quite good!  Loved the jazz feel and piano work.   That Simon track was pretty spot on as well, very jazzy so far!  You're in a different mood with this one! Kinda got lost on the next track, a bit weird! OK a lot weird...

Cant say I've ever heard anything that convinces me that the Dead are any good, too loose and boring especially their older stuff. 

The Everhart (sp?) track was funny...  But maybe a bit blasphemes?  tee hee...

Nice closer but the GPell is a tie between Morrison and Simon
