  • NRBQ Derbytown
    NRBQ Derbytown 2004 saw the release of {$NRBQ}'s 1989 Montreal concert on the excellent {^One In A Million} DVD and 2006 brought this release of a 1982 show from Louisville, Kentucky entitled {^Derbytown}. As with the previous disc this one is chock full of great stuff from a group that is perpetual and indestructably inevitable. Credited as {$NRBQ} with {$The Whole Wheat Horns}, a duo who were touring with the band at this point in time, the version of the group here includes {$Joey Spampinato} on vocals and bass, the great {$Al Anderson} singing and playing guitar, {$Terry Adams} on vocals, piano and clarinet and {$Tom Ardolino} on drums. {$Spampinato}'s pretty and effective {&"I Love Her, She Loves Me"} is wonderfully sixties with Adams pulling out a tiny keyboard for something that sounds like it came off a {$Vanity Fair} recording. It's followed by a driving {&"What's The Plot"} with {$Al Anderson} singing like he's auditioning for {$Bachman Turner Overdrive}. That's a compliment. There are thirteen tracks on this forty-three minute concert along with one page of liner notes from {$Johnny D} and three cool "bonus" selections that are brief but very fun. The first of the bonuses is a mere seventeen second a cappella entry {&"Program Them Computers"} (process the data) with the gents wearing bags on their heads a la chef's hats and singing those six words. That's followed by a 42 second {&"Atsa My Boys"} promo film with those participating wearing the same attire and flinging pizza dough to harmonica accompaniment.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 292 153 CS 506 070 AUTHOR Burns, Gary TITLE The Bosstown Sound. PUB DATE Mar 88 NOTE 39p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Culture Association (10th, New Orleans, LA, March 23-26, 1988).

DESCRIPTORS *Bands (Music); Content Analysis; Discographies; *Music; Musicians; *Popular Culture IDENTIFIERS Media History; Music Ensembles; *Rock and Roll; *Rock Music ABSTRACT Based on the argument that (contrary to critical opinion) the musicians in the various bands associated with Bosstown Sound were indeed talented, cohesive individuals and that the bands' lack of renown was partially a result of ill-treatment by record companies and the press, this paper traces the development of the Bosstown Sound from its beginnings in the nightclubs of Boston in 1967 to its end in 1969. In addition, the paper provides complete discographies, including critical commentary, of records produced by bands associated with the Bosstown Sound. The bands of the Bosstown Sound include: The Apple Pie Motherhood Band, The Bagatelle, The Beacon Street Union, Bo Grumpus, Eagle, Earth Opera, Eden's Children, Sure Looks Real, The Ill Wind, Jolliver Arkansaw, Orpheus, Phluph, Puff, and Ultimate Spinach.

I’ll be damned if I can decide which introduction to use for the The U- Haul Adventures, so I’ll leave the choice to you. Simply select your favorite intro, and inform me of your choice via mail or email. I’ll tally the votes and the most popular introduction will be the one that everyone reads! Tally ho! Mike #1 - For those who like the literary approach: “A prologue is written last but placed first to explain the book's shortcomings and to ask the reader to be kind. But a prologue is also a note of farewell from a writer to his book. For years the writer and his book have been together—friends or bitter enemies but very close as only love and fighting can accomplish. ” —John Steinbeck, Journal o f a Novel #2 - For those who dig the dry details: The U-Haul Adventures could be accurately subtitled “Columns I Wrote for Other Zines That My Friends Never Got to Read, Along with New Stuff I Wrote for Tour.” Last summer I went through the box in which I keep copies of zines I’ve written for. Flipping through the stack I realized that most of my friends never had a chance to read the columns, and never would given that all but one of the zines is now extinct. (Josh Rutledge’s fab Now Wave being the noteworthy exception.) And that’s not right because I often write with my friends in mind.
