I saw him live once and he played "I Want You Back" (yes THAT delicious Jackson 5 song) on acoustic guitar and just won me over. I just adore the Jackson 5 and it was absolutely fantastic! He even did the high "Oh baby give me one more chance..." part. I've got a big, dumb grin on my face just remembering that. I bought his 2nd album, "Dog Eared Dream," and I really liked it, especially the song "Flying." He's a really great guitar player and a good songwriter. His 1st album, "The Trees Have Soul," is more instrumental but still very good. It's a little raw, being that it was an independent release, but still top notch. Also, if you are in a "shakin' that ass" kind of mood, I definitely recommend Stevie Wonder's "Fulfillingness' First Finale." I just have four words for you: Boogie On Reggae Woman. I know, I know, he's not some obscure, unknown singer/songwriter, but God, I love this man! AAANNNDD! If any of you out on the east coast like and go see Sixpence None the Richer live, pay attention to the drummer. He's one of my co-workers. He's a local singer/songwriter named Park Ellis (who is VERY nice and VERY talented) and he got the drumming gig when the band's drummer backed out of the tour. Talk about a perfect chance for some great exposure, huh? I have no idea if he'll be selling his CD at the shows but if he is, pick it up. He really deserves all the success that comes his way. -cristina "And in the mist there she rides, and castles are burning in my heart...." -Tori Amos, "Girl" ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Jun 1999 22:33:36 EDT From: UMCaner74@aol.com Subject: Re: MM: Other artists..not PG. Ruby, My Personal suggestions would be The Badlees (YES Paul..The Badlees..), Nancy Micciulla, Mary Arden Collins, and Lynn Miles...(email me for info on each of those) all of those are lesser known artists, but each one incredibly wonderful! :-) I like Dar Williams and The Nields as well! ONLY 3 hours till Patty hits the stage on National Television...Yee haw!!

So, yes, the writers were responsible for how funny he is. - -----Original Message----- From: Amy To: UMCaner74@aol.com Cc: mad-mission@smoe.org Date: Friday, June 18, 1999 11:27 AM Subject: Re: MM: Talk show host Craig >Wasn't Kilborn the host of the Daily Show on Comedy Central before Jon Stewart? >He was kinda funny on that -- but as with any talk show, it could have just been >the writers. > >Amy > >UMCaner74@aol.com wrote: > >> Wendy, >> >> Craig Kilborn is a VERY funny man who used to be on ESPN's Sportscenter. >> There are former ESPN hosts popping up everywhere in talk shows and comedy >> shows as of late. >> >> His show from what I've seen is not all that funny though, but I've only seen >> a few shows.

Someone mentioned the Corrs. They are pretty catchy and even have an interesting, "celtic" version of Little Wing. And nobody has mentioned Maria McKee. I've seen Patty compared to her in reviews. Her stuff with Lone Justice and her first couple of solo albums have a more country tinge to them. Her last album, Life is Sweet, was more in the guitar thrashing, alterna-mode, but good none the less. I suggest her self-titled album. She has a very powerful voice and actually has a lot of the same influences as Patty. And there's Sam Phillips and Aimee Mann and the list goes on and on. So much great music...go out and explore! http://www.imagineradio.com/mymusiclisten.asp?name=poogieLA ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V3 #182 *********************************
