I have to say, while being coy...because I'd rather not get into the boring details, that J.P. Barlow didn't like me very much, though I admired him greatly. Cassidy...catch colt draws the coffin cart, indeed.

I did not know that you had crossed paths!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:09pm
coelacanth∅:

doesn't it suck when someone you admire doesn't like you? it naturally makes me admire them less, as their decision to dislike me always comes before they know me; not a quality i respect in a person.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:11pm
Funky16Corners:

I don't think I've experienced it much - which is not to suggest that I'm lovable - but that I've probably avoided those encounters where possible.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:12pm
Funky16Corners:

I've gotten kind words about my work time and again, but shied away from one on one meet ups.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:13pm
Uncle Michael:

Oh, he was annoyed with me for a reason. And I don't begrudge him his discomfiture with me. I stand by how my expression of certain points of view put me in his bad books. This was a long time ago and I don't flatter myself that in recent years he'd even have remembered any of it.

Funky16Corners:

He seemed like a very complicated guy, who may have diverge from the world of the Dead in a lot of ways
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:14pm

The "external" world of the Dead

Uncle Michael:

He was a Republican county coordinator in Wyoming, for example.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:16pm
Funky16Corners:

Didn't he run a big family ranch out there?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 10:17pm
Uncle Michael:

Yes. A very interesting guy...prep school mate of Weir's.

I was in a trumpet-y mood this week. Love me some Lee Morgan.

Lee Morgan always puts me in the mood for Irwin.

Who, Professor Corey?

Chusid. "Yes I Can, No You Can't" is his opening theme.

Ah!

Man, the crew playing on this date is amazing. Just another Blue Note session at Van Gelders.

Not anymore, UM. He is now dedicated to playing a different LM tune each week.

I had no idea, Dean. Very cool.

I see that Irwin's just a couple weeks into this new protocol.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:37pm

yeah i didn't know either. i fairly infrequently i catch Irwin's show, even less frequently catch the beginning.

There's a little Second Line roll in Ed Blackwell's playing if you listen closely.

Freddie Hubbard always puts me in the mood to hear white people yelled at.

I have that somewhere. I should dig it out.

I used to love hearing this 10CC song on the radio when I was a kid. Not sure why I liked it. Maybe because it just sounded so weird.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:29pm
Funky16Corners:

It's an amazing sounding record. So dense, dreamy yet kind of ominous as well
  11:29pm
rw:

Which is weird, because it doesn't really sound so weird. Except that it does.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:31pm
Funky16Corners:

Yeah. It's like it's sexy and spooky at the same time. Someone made a documentary about the making of the record. I'd like to see it.
  11:33pm
rw:

Yes. Dense, dreamy and kind of ominous; sexy and spooky. Well put LG!

I recall earliest hearings of Not in Love, in a van with a clutch of passengers. Thought it was Wings at first.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:34pm

I think Eric Stewart ended up in McCartney;s band
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 11:35pm
Funky16Corners:

And Godley and Creme went on to make some interesting stuff on their own
  11:50pm

Good night. May your trains run on time and never be bunged up and hung up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:54pm

i never saw that documentary but if you haven't, at least read about "i'm not in love" in wikipedia. interesting how it came to be.
