At the early hour it was a tossup as to who was sleepier, the reporter or his sub- ject, but a seemingly innocuous remark related to Jones about how a record retailer had compared her to Joni Mitchell set the artist abuzz. "I'd like to meet whoever said that to you," she says sternly, her tone suggesting that she can do more than sing and write. Like punch. Hard. With her fists. "I would say," she continues, "that anyone who says I'm like someone else who's out there is somebody who ought to be in the retail record business. Joni Mitchell and I have absolutely nothing in common, except that we both have big mouths and long, blond hair. She writes introspective diaries and puts them to music.

  • Corey's Top 10 2017 Concerts
    Corey's Top 10 2017 Concerts As 2017 ends and we look forward to 2018, I share my top ten concerts for the past year. This represents the seventh installment in this “series.” This past year, my wife was again my partner at all but two concerts I review this year. Shelly’s presence again indicated a predominance of weekend and summer shows this past year. It also followed the previous year’s pattern of fewer shows overall, but thinking back to professional obligations over much of the year, shows I penciled in but could not get to made some sense. Still when shows several featured multiple artists who could headline in their own right it certainly gave a sense of attending double the actually number of concerts – especially considering the quality of the shows. Another interesting factoid: my first and last shows this year featured my talented friend (and matrimonial attorney-extraordinaire) Curt Arnel on drums. 1) Few who know this correspondent fail to know my fave all time band and how I argue no band called Eagles could exist if not for Poco. Indeed I passed up my weekly Tuesday night full-court game to travel out of state to the South Orange Performing Arts Center (aka SOPAC), New Jersey to experience perhaps a great testimony of my “argument.” Long-time Eagles bassist Timothy B. Schmit headlined a show which his mentor, Poco founder and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer (with Buffalo Springfield) Richie Furay opened. Richie’s set opened with Pickin’ Up The Pieces from the first Poco LP of the same name, before Tim joined the band (replacing Randy Meisner who he later replaced in Eagles).

  • Corey's Top 10 2012 Concerts the Vagaries of Life, Work And, Perhaps Too Much of My Personal Creative Time on Other
    Corey's Top 10 2012 Concerts The vagaries of life, work and, perhaps too much of my personal creative time on other “projects” including co-producing a mayoral forum and developing a new website for my fraternal order, the Knights of Pythias (in New York), set back my end of the year review of the best shows I took in during 2012. Last year, the only widely available music I acquired involved some fave artists – Al Kooper (Black Coffee and White Chocolate), Neil Young (Americana) and David Bowie (30th Anniversary edition of Ziggy Stardust). Richie Furay's “Live At The Canyon Club” remains a limited edition so not sure you can find a copy – you'll just have to hang with me (and yet it's on my iPhone). As last year, only one free show made the cut but the quality of those shows (including The Good Rats, Joan Jett, Poco, Dennis DeYoung of Styx/Lou Gramm of Foreigner/Bobby Kimball of Toto) compared favorably with ones the required a ticket and sometimes a cover as well. 1) It rained; it was not Woodstock (How could it be? The ground was blacktop.); fireworks last July 20 at MCU Park supplemented the blaring, precise power melodies of Squeeze. I've seen many a great Squeeze show, I've listened to many others I could not attend; even saw Difford and Tilbrook and Glen with his Fluffers. This one was special. And if the original term limits had held four years back, it probably would have meant no such shows at Coney Island.

  • It Really Is the Material, Stupid.”
    The Public Ought to Know: “It really is the material, stupid.” I like live music. Last year I attended as many live shows by original artists or bands fronted by originals than my college years. I also notice more and more shows that use great music by other artists. Who can get a ticket now (without going to brokers or scalpers) for Jersey Boys anytime soon? Remember Beatlemania? The question: What matters most? The music played live and fresh or the original artist(s) or some combination thereof playing and singing the stuff? Two emails moved this column. One concerned changes in my favorite band. Another discussed the importance of the music rather than who performs it. Coincidence? It all started as an email to Poco listserves maintained by fans of the band. The listserves really represent communities and most of us met, attended live shows together, visited each other or plan to. I rarely post to Poconuts and GoodFeelintoKnow listserves and follow each via digest. Many follow via individual emails and still others follow via the website. In digests from each listserve received Friday and Saturday, I learned of changes in the band as currently configured. It moved me to post to both sites. I wrote that I found it “a bit surreal reading the emails about the changes with Poco and Paul Cotton's departure from one of our fave, if not favorite bands.” Many know Poco is my favorite band and that I advocate their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There were times in the late 80s and 90s that I throught the band was no more.
