Hello All, My laptop computer died, I'm out of town, and I'm borrowing someone else's computer to write this. Unfortunately, I have no bookmarks and I don't remember the address of Ron G's site with the Richard Shindell chords on it. If someone could let me know the address I would really appreciate it. Yesterday I bought a beautiful new Taylor guitar and I need the music. Since I finally got a good guitar I want to start playing some of Richard's music. Thanks, Tom PS: Anyone wanna' buy a used Yamaha six string? ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 23 Apr 2000 12:13:49 -0400 From: "jmunsey" Subject: [RS] Radio appearances This is a multi-part message in MIME format. - ------=_NextPart_000_0036_01BFAD1D.61E1AD60 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi It was posted here that Richard will be making some radio appearances: Tue 4/25 @ 3:00 PM -- WFUV 90.7 FM/New York City -- w/ Larry Campbell & Lincoln Schlieffer If you log onto http://www.wfuv.org you'll be able to hear the broadcast.

The other day a friend of mine told me that in her opinion the guy in "Easy Street" is dreaming about how he wishes things were even though in reality they aren't that way. So when he says, "you never told that lie..." he is dreaming that it had all just never happened, even though she really did "tell that lie." Does anyone else share that view? Lately when singing the song I find a seed of doubt as to the character's true happiness. I'd like to uproot it. - - Ed "I mean c'mon, God kicked Adam and Eve out of paradise for eating = apples?!?

Lucy of course did sing on "that" song! JG>>> Ok, Ok, i may be a big stupid idiot, but im not THAT big of a big stupid idiot. It was indeed Love Hurts by Boudleaux Bryant as Ron suggested. I am confident of his because after Richard and Lucy performed a mesmerizing rendition of it to close the Peterborough show, I asked them about it, and Richard told me, but after the long ride home and compiling my notes at 1:00 am so I could post my review the next morning for all you rabid listers, I faltered on the name when I came to the closing song, and glanced at my Falcon Ridge pamphlet and must have convinced myself that Bryant was akin to Blumenfeld, lol. But thanks for the correction. Yes Sharon - Lucy must have been pretty tired from that schedule, because on stage, she mentioned that she didnt think they had played together since the Cry3 finale. Also- after going into Peterborough after the show to get gas and coffee, and then driving back past the theater on our trek home, at a lonely dark crossroads in Hancock, NH, we came upon two cars pulled over with out of state plates reading maps by headlights. We were glad to point Lucy and friends in the right direction towards their hotel - hopefully they got the rest they needed! I think Richard had passed us going the other way (toward civilization) about 20 minutes before . Looking forward to Somerville with the band - Jim ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 26 Apr 2000 12:13:42 -0400 From: michael epstein Subject: Re: [RS] Updated Tour Schedule Jess would play thirty minutes, then after a break, Richard goes for about ninety.

Ed wrote: <> My impressions of the song for so long have been based on the sweet sound and feel of it. However, my most recent thoughts have to do mostly with the second verse and its significance to the song as a whole. Our sins are all forgiven here We thank God just for being there For laying nature's bounty bare When we pushed back the wild frontier Though we are saved by grace alone Still we regret that episode When Spanish gold and Indian bones Were buried under these cobblestone I have come to believe that the verse (and therefore the song) is a reflection on this country's ravaging of its vast wealth of resources, not to mention its native people; that we have left them "buried under these cobblestones," a sweeping them under the rug, so to speak. To me, Richard seems to be drawing a parallel between this wasteful history and that of a relationship that has little left going for it. We as a nation have taken the path to "Easy Street" with little regard for what has gotten in our way; the couple has likewise taken the easy way to getting along -- not dealing with the hard parts of the relationship.

Davis" Subject: Re: [RS] Re: Just Wondering... on Easy Street: for my part, because with all Richard's songs I am absolutely gripped by the lyrics, the first time I heard it I was positively chilled, terrified, by that understated bitterness, makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck, even more than By Now. (Which, by contrast, I loved for the melody and the images and hd no clue it was a reflection on somethign so evil.) But then the first time I heard it it was live and you could have heard a pin drop, and in that situation you can watch teh performer's face. lisa ------------------------------ End of shindell-list-digest V2 #46 **********************************
