  1. I know there aren’t many Country fans here, but anyone who knows the voice of Randy Travis may be as surprised as I was at how close they got. 
    Randy not only wanted this, he was involved in every step of the process. 
    He was one of Country’s most distinctive & successful voices for years, but a stroke damaged the part of his brain that governs speaking & singing. 

    We had to sign NDAs, but we can talk now. Story covered on CBS Sunday Morning tomorrow.

  2. Long time KCers know I’ve gotten some fierce sh*t here for occasionally expressing my dislike for some seemingly revered Jazz musicians.  So I smiled when a friend told me that Chet Atkins once referred to a musician as “he plays like he’s double parked” 😆

  3. I’ve always felt that 10” speakers were best for fitting in frequency wise between the bass & the EG. I’ve put a lot of Wurly through 10s on records for several decades, but only once or twice live, so your mileage may vary.

    Others that come to mind on the (con)fusion of music and politics: Mike Huckabee plays bass guitar; attorney Jay Sekulow (sp?) has put out several Youtube videos of a cover band with regular guests like John Elephante (Kansas) and John Schlitt (Head East).  Richard Nixon was pretty good at the piano, though nowhere close to Secretary Rice.

    Well as likely the only forumite who has actually “jammed” with Mike Huckabee, I can say that calling him a bass player is a HUGE stretch of kindness 😆

    Paul McCartney's tribute to Jimmy Buffett was impressive both in its length and content.  RIP Jimmy.  I hope you found that lost shaker of salt.

    A friend of mine is the producer for (what will be) Jimmy’s last record. He was also a player on the new George Strait record we tracked last week. On Tuesday he was telling us how cool it was to “produce “ Paul McCartney’s bass track, then Wednesday he missed the sessions, flying to NY to say goodbye to his friend. Sad.
