    .let's just say as a musician...there was not much for me to latch onto here....I'll read Langston Hughes or Dick Gregory anyday..to each his own...I like music to breathe...have a sense of dynamics...I like poets who take their time as well

    Must have listened to "Thick as a Brick" a hundred times...Ian Anderson was an animal onstage.

    I saw them on the Thick as a Brick tour and the Passion Play tour....Ian Anderson was a freak of nature back then...one of the great British bands of the era...Martin Barre is a very unsung guitarist as well....brings back good memories....I picked up a copy of Songs from the woods a couple years back..love me some Tull

    Yeah, it stuck with me because I heard it during the summer when I got my first job which was at Tektronix.

    Needless to say, I'm a Yanx fan...I recently stumbled upon this...in honor of Mariano Rivera...not sre who's more impressive, the girl playing guitar or her Sister playing drums.

    Paul McCartney and John Lennon agreed that John had written all of the words of “In My Life,” but disagreed upon who had written the entire melody. They agreed that Paul had at least helped with the middle eight bars.

    One week ago, Harvard and Dalhousie U. statistics professors gave a presentation at the Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) in Vancouver, B.C. Their computer program analyzed note and chord transitions to find that the probability that Paul McCartney wrote any of the melodies is 1.8%, even the middle.
