The Adrian Belew I know is featured on many many interesting albums by people who make very complicated music. I have seen him perform with Frank Zappa, Talking Heads, and of course King Crimson, to name but a few. He also has a string of solo records which are pretty fun. If you want to hear AB at his finest, look into: Laurie Anderson - Mister Heartbreak Frank Zappa - Sheik Yerbouti King Crimson - Discipline just for starters! I have been a fan and follower of AB for 28 years (at least!) (I WAS A VERY HIP SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD, OK?????) and have never heard of him having a Christian Revival show or band or whatever. Although, I certainly wouldn't put it past him. Of course, knowing his sense of humor, it's remotely possible that if he did this it might have been a goof - i.e. performance art. I'm anxious to hear the results of this question! Please keep us posted! J PS How many Adrian Belew's can there be? It has to be the same guy, right? >From: Jennifer Mitts >To: precious-things@smoe.org >Subject: Adrian Belew >Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2005 08:56:51 -0800 (PST) > > >Lou was talking about how Adrian Belew did some fabulous guitar work for >Tori on SLG.

Mac Aladdin : Computer Genie Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Operation Peter Pan the first Tori song ever with only guitar and vocals? Featuring Mac Aladdin? Just a thought. I personally like Computer Genie's playing on the new tracks, but now that I think about it, it really doesn't have that "it", that "feel" that you hear in real guitar playing... BUT, if we're wrong, can you imagine how this poor bastard feels?!?!?! "Hey, mom, I finally got my big break and I'm playing for Tori Amos!!!!!" "Yes, son, but I've been surfing the internet, and it turns out you're a machine." Or better yet, that episode of The Twilight Zone where the daughter finds out she's a robot, and she gets a little miffed about this, but the elderly couple can't part with her now, so they turn her into a maid! Mac Aladdin finds out he's a robot, and ends up loading equipment after the shows. BTW, I know I opened my big mouth about ALLEGED this and that in ddi recently, but here's where I'm the biggest hypocrite in the world, or just being cautions because I wasn't there to witness it, but... Steve Caton was "ALLEGEDLY" "hitting on underage girls at the shows" and that didn't go well with T. There are many threads about this on the net, go to Google and do a little homework. Icky. The computer plays guitar, and the guitarist plays the little girls. ALLEGEDLY. J PS SUE ME. You'll get a big stack of Tori Amos stuff and a convertible that needs a new roof. ------------------------------ End of precious-things-digest V10 #59 *************************************
