Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan (1967) Even the Beatles weren't ready in 1967 to write ten-minute rambling surrealist fables - but Dylan was. Epics like "Desolation Row" and "Like a rolling stone" firmly rebutted the old argument that rock lyrics couldn't be poetry. Fine imitations followed from the Byrds and Simon & Garfunkel, but they were just that - imitations of Bob. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2006 07:41:06 EST From: HwyCDRrev@aol.com Subject: Robyn Hitchcock and Richard Thompson are among today's featured artists. _http://www.wnyc.org/shows/soundcheck/episodes/01022006_ (http://www.wnyc.org/shows/soundcheck/episodes/01022006) Soundcheck Soundcheck Live in 2005 Monday, January 02, 2006 Today on Soundcheck, a final day of looking back to the best live peromances on Soundcheck in the year 2005.

Blimey... not me, I'm afraid - looks more like the work of Tim from Spaced ( http://www.spaced-out.org.uk/ for those unfamiliar). I must say I do find it slightly disconcerting to find people of exactly the same name, but I spose when you add together the fact there's 6 billion and counting of us (humans, I mean, not Matt Sewells) and my parents don't have much in the way of imagination (my middle name is Jonathan ferkrissakes) and I guess it makes sense. However, in the interests of self-promotion (my favourite is the shameless type), anyfeg want to go to see The New Moon and Pat Fish's band Wilson at the Labour Club in Northampton (UK) on Friday? You'd be very, very, very welcome...

"Noted songwriter and psych-folk artist Robyn Hitchcock was born March 3, 1953, in London, although for contractual reasons he was not issued in New Zealand until September of the following year". Erm... that kinda sounds like something Robyn might say, or perhaps even has said... - -Rx ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V15 #2 ******************************
