I'll be watching...and waiting...I sound like a damn stalker, lol!
One day I'll post Vol. 4, probably not until next month at the earliest.
Jon, I vaguely remember something about Vol. 4 with the original band.
Wonder why I never got it or heard it?
I got other new ones by him!
Yeah, Look Sharp and I'm The Man are awesome albums. Vol. 4 isn't too shabby, it came out in the early 2000's and features the original band.
Here's the article about Jackson's new album http://ultimateclassicrock.com/joe-jackson-fast-forward-2015-tour/ and here is the first song:
This was a really terrific show Mike.
That Judy Collins song was awesome. I totally love it. And you followed with a staple. A very good song by Dylan. And the song isn't that old. Who would have thunk it? And so you kicked off the show with a couple of pretty long songs. Nice work.
I get your point about that Lighthouse song. It really should've been a hit. When did you say it came out? Every time you play Joe Jackson I seem to like it. I put Stepping Out (or Steppin' Out), not sure which, and Night And Day on my Amazon Wish list after the show finished running. Are you aware that Joe Jackson has a new album coming out? And just so you know, I thought it sounded like Joe Jackson while it was playing.
You know I like Gordon Lightfoot. This song can't win the Golden Pell because I've heard it. And that's two staples so far (Gordon and Dylan). By the way, I just heard this song on the radio the other day. The harmonies on the chorus remind me of The Statler Brothers. Except I believe all of the voices happen to belong to Mr. Lightfoot.
Richie Havens Mixed Bag is an album I've picked up within the last year or so because of you playing him. One day I'm gonna feature it as Album of the Week, probably when I hit the 60's for a while.
The Tom Rush song sounded like it should be a Gordon Lightfoot song. And the funny thing is that Lightfoot wrote the song that preceded this one. Go figure. You must have done that on purpose.
I'd say this was a pretty perfect show. Loved it all the way around. I think you should do a show with Jon and myself as your special guests. Maybe we could tie in via Skype or something like that. Not that you need the help or the distraction, but I bet it would be a hoot!
Judy Collins said about ass? In the 60's? You could sing about ass in the 60's? JUDY COLLINS COULD SING ABOUT ASS IN THE 60'S???? What kind of world do we leave in?
You know, you could have played that song about Bastille Day by Rush. At least there's no filthy language in their song.
More Joe Jackson? I picked up a couple Joe Jackson albums that I found for cheap this week, "Jumpin' Jive" and "Laughter & Lust". Still want "Beat Crazy", haven't heard that since it was originally released.
Anyway, even though the filthy language took me out of the show, I think it was pretty good.
