Jon,
You weren't too coherent there, I was not sure what you meant.
But the ending jam was the high point.
Yeah, that's what I listened to by Cheap Trick, and it sounded like Lou Reed and VU's song...Cheap Trick covering the Velvet Underground?
They always seemed too nice for that, lol!
I don't recall Heart doing Ring Them Bells, although I have a substantial amount of Heart (both the group and personally!).
The first thing that comes to my mind is real nice version Joan Baez did.
Sure send it if you don't mind.
Thanks,
Mike
I liked Dylan on The All Star Jam! better than on Knocking since he was more coherent. I wasn't coherent in my first post, I think.
9 hours later? This time I kinda remembered.
Cheap Trick has a version of Waiting For The Man/Heroin on their Sex, America, Cheap Trick box set. However, it's not Robin Zander on vocals, it's actually Tom Petersson.
Heart does a cover of Ring Them Bells on their "Desire Walks On" album, see if you have that, if not let me know....
Oh and that was a great question RJ- I have no idea why Springsteen wasn't there...he should have been.
When he first came to notice Bruce was called the New Dylan, maybe Bob didn't like that.
But I really don't know the reason.

This was more like it. I like Lou Reed, and liked his version of whatever song he did. Curious, was he the geetar soloist?
The one thing that turned me off was Dylan's signing on Knocking On Heavens Door. That's the main reason I don't like him, it's like listenin to a cat squalling. Thankfully he was more coherent with the All Star Jam! at the end.
It's a tossup between 3 & 4 for me, I'm leaning toward this one.
So, we are wrapping it up with Lou Reed huh? It's a shame you actually found time to play that song...just kidding. I'm not a fan of Reed. Never have been. I'd like to say I have no idea why he's considered a legend, but I'm not knowledgeable enough on his material to make that claim. So I'll just stick with I don't like him as a musician.
The Tom Petty song was terrific. It almost got the GP, but not so fast. I also really dug the Roger McGuin (spelling?) tune. The guitar playing (once again) on the tune that Dylan did was fantastic.
The Golden Pell is going to the closing superstar effort. My Back Pages. You are correct for liking that song so much. It's pretty brilliant.
One question. Unless I missed it, why was Springsteen not present? That surprised me.
There are no birthdays today
