Silver Member Username: Mike3Wiley, Tx USA Post Number: 373 Registered: May-06 | Holy smokes. Close but no cigar. Some of the higher ups were in town this week and went out on Wednesday here in Dallas. The ended up at a Hooters. In walks who other than Joss Stone. She was the opening act at the first night opening of "The House of Blues" which is right across the street from the Hooters and stopped in for a pre-performance snack. They said she was real friendly, took pictures with folks, signed autographs and everything. Later they saw her leave her bus in a short silver sequined dress and heels for her performance. Buzzards should have asked me to join them. They take me all over Denver and nothing happens. One night in Dallas and I miss everything. After filling in the blanks on her 3 CDs and performance at the Grammy's I suspect the fellow I spoke with about her has already bought her latest CD. |

She is currently touring in the US. |

They really produce a quality product and I find that this LP was just waiting for my system and visa versa. I don't know if anybody else would even like this album or not but "Plans" is one of the rewards to our little obsession. |
Silver Member Username: SemNew York USA Post Number: 674 Registered: Mar-04 | "Sem..The Pikes. She ain't pretty?" Sorry Nuck, but not real familiar with the Pikes. Saw this album in a used vinyl shop north of Chicago back in the late '80s and bought it on a whim. Transferred it to cassette many years ago and just happened to grab the tape last night and "rip" it to my hard drive. More as an experiment than anything else. That reminds me, I don't get out fishing as much as I used to......Note to self - need to slow down and remember what's really important in life. Now playing - Pink Floyd - Obscured By Clouds |

Silver Member Username: Mike3Wiley, Tx USA Post Number: 377 Registered: May-06 | addendum to previous post. I went to Preservation Hall and listened to the Jazz there. This is not the sound you get from their CD. It was recorded at Sea-Saint Studios in New Orleans. I had to go look it up as although it was about 12 years ago, it did not sound right, too clean if you know what I mean. Those who had been there would know what I mean. However this CD did get my toe tapping and is very very enjoyable. |
