I still love to listen to Gorka even though I have trouble connecting his later work in general with earlier stuff like bottom line and jack's crows. Oh, to sing like that. I'd sing the phone book! And to answer Does anyone else laugh a little when so many folk fans think its not ok to cover certain songs? I lean toward the share the music school too. There are definitive versions of songs that I think will never be surpassed, and there are certainly songs I never really feel the need to hear again cause I've heard so many bad versions of them, but in general I say if you like it, play it. jim colbert in a gloriously clear, no longer hot state college pa ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2002 05:30:37 -0700 (PDT) From: adam plunkett Subject: Re: [RS] Newport Yes, that is the song.

Dylan played Saturday night as part of a tour so I would guess that Larry Campbell left with Dylan. Richard was playing with Lincoln on bass, a blond haired guy on electric, and a drummer. - -Adam - --- "Norman A. Johnson" wrote: > Thanks Adam for the Newport setlist. > > Vance Gilbert MCing.

It's more about Dylan than, say, when I saw Dylan a few years back in an arena when it was more of a band feel. On the topic of Newport, there was a nice review of the fetsival in yesterday's Boston Globe. The author, Joan Anderman, had nice things to say about Richard: "Sunday's lineup was a model of diversity, spanning Richard Shindell's measured, beautifully crafted contemporary acoustic songs, the inspirational soul of Blind Boys of Alabama, Natalie MacMaster's buoyant fiddle music, and the homey touch of headliner Arlo Guthrie - who closed the weekend with a laid-back, chatty set full of storytelling and communal singalongs."

Just wanted to say that I think there were a number of fine Beatles covers on the I Am Sam soundtrack, notably Rufus W's "Across The Universe."

Lord no, the music evangelist lives on... ;) Anyway, just wanted to say that Peter Mulvey's version of The Ocean (which I think kicks Dar's version round the corner and back - and that's saying a lot since The Ocean is my favourite Dar song) can be found on his new CD Ten Thousand Mornings. There's a soundclip of it at: http://www.signature-sounds.com/artistpage/artistpage.php3?artist=petermulvey The album, btw, is entirely cover songs, and was recorded entirely in the subways of Boston. It features tunes by Gillian Welch, Paul Simon, Leo Kottke, Randy Newman, Elvis Costello, Bob Dylan and more, as well as guest appearances by Erin McKeown, Jennifer Kimball, Chris Smither, and others. It's a truly stunning collection. Ok, enough gushing, back to lurking...
