In addition to the covers you already mentioned he also does a real nice version of " Goin' Back " on the first self-titled solo LP " Nils Lofgren " ( solid album, " Keith Don't Go ", " Back it UP " ... not a clinker on the whole LP ). " Baltimore " is the Randy Newman tune, from the " Nils " LP and if you check the songwriting credits on that LP you'll see both Lou Reed and Dick Wagner's monikers on a few tracks. Live Nils was great, probably still is too !!! I got to see him and Grin only a few times, my fave memory being the time they played warm-up, for West Bruce and Laing on their first tour, in Waterbury Ct at the Palace Theatre. Connecticut was/is full of Leslie West fanatics ( count me in ), and on that night Grin are trying to get thru their set ( and playing great too !!! ) but everytime a song ended and every other minute this one crazed Leslie West fan kept screaming " Leslie West is the Best !!! " so loud you could hear him all over the theatre. It go so darn annoying Nils had to stop the show and actually ask the guy to give him and the band a break, and let them play, yet he did it in such a kool way that he wound up winning the whole audience over, which sucessfully shut the guy up, and Grin went on to play and finish a really fine show, and yeah Nils was doin' the trampoline thing too . like what happens if he lands on his head man ??? maureen In a message dated 1/11/01 7:03:04 PM, rockys@tbaytel.net writes: << Right on! Nils is one of my faves as well. All the Grin albums have some real highlights, especially 1&1 and Go Crazy. I was thinkin' 'bout how much I used to dig this guy whwen we were talkin' 'bout Neil Young. His guitar work even saves one song on Trans! Over the years, he's made some pretty uneven solo albums, but I always enjoyed his deference to great 60's sounds. He did solid covers of the Yardbirds' "For Your Love", the Beatles "Anytime At All", the Stones' "It's All Over Now", Del Shannon's "Go To Pieces" (with Del backing him) and even the Beau Brummels' "Just A Little". Plus I really like his version of "Baltimore" which I think was penned by Randy Newman. >> ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 07:13:23 EST From: Euphorik6@aol.com Subject: what do you listen to in the car? as the prospect (ugh) of another day at work rears its ugly head, i'm sitting here thinking "at least i'll get to listen to some good music on the way" - which got me thinking, what does everyone listen to while they're driving? i have about a half-hour commute to work every day, there & back, and i usually try to liven stuff up w/ some tapes... & how many of you guys have CD players in your cars? i have a couple-of-years old tape player in my car, i tape all of my car music on those brown maxell tapes. a friend of mine recently suggested getting a CD player for my car and i was like "fuck no!" - i like it a lot better with the car full of tapes, that way if i get ripped off, i'm just out a bunch of crappy tapes. another friend of mine had his car broken into a couple of years ago, he had a CD player, and whoever ripped him off took his CD player & a bunch of who discs, and that double-disc moby grape set that came out a coupla years ago. ouch! anyway - here's what's usually playing in my car: stooges - funhouse/raw power (remix); this is great to blow out the speakers to at 7 am when i am still half-awake. lotsa energy, great weekday morning records. i love to hear "down in the street" and "loose" in the car. i think they sound best in the car!! maybe it's the detroit connection. also, "raw power" is an absolute driving-like-a-prick interstate classic, weaving in between the lanes to "search and destroy" and honking & flipping people off. outta my way, sucker!!

He was 46. Gregory, a native of Detroit, died Wednesday at Anaheim Memorial Hospital, spokeswoman Gina Esparza said. A cause of death was not immediately available. The guitarist had recently suffered a heart attack and had been ill for several weeks, his former wife, Robyn Hunt, said by telephone from her home in Florida. The Cramps made their debut in 1976 at the legendary punk rock club CBGB's in New York. Gregory was known for his wild antics on stage and his distinctive black hair with a lock of white hanging over his eye. "He was into feedback," friend Andrella Christopher said of Gregory's musical style. "He loved making the most obnoxious sound he could get out of that guitar." The band released two albums, Gravest Hits in 1979 and Songs the Lord Taught Us in 1980. Although Gregory left the group in 1980, band members Lux Interior and Poison Ivy continued to perform as The Cramps. Gregory also appeared with other Cramps members as "punk thugs" in the 1978 film The Foreigner. After leaving The Cramps, Gregory performed with the band Beast from 1980 to 1984, and with The Dials from 1992 to 1995. He had recently formed a new band called Shiver, Christopher said. Gregory is survived by a daughter, Tracy Ellis, and a sister, Pam Beckerleg, both of Michigan. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 13:42:34 +0000 From: Boldface Subject: Mad For The Racket >"Brian James, founder members and guitarist from seminal UK punk band The >Damned has teamed up with Wayne Kramer from inspirational garage band MC5 >to form Mad For The Racket.

The Reckless Bastards played last night w/ the Harpys, the Fartz and the Lewd and it was great! The Harpys are James Burdyshaw's (Catbutt/64 Spiders/Sinister Six) new band, they were way cool, amped up Yardbirds meets MC5. First time I'd seen James sing lead in a band, too. Of course, we rocked. The Fartz were okay, basically what I expected but to be honest I didn't pay much attention as I was conversing with this guy about writing. The Lewd were amazing! Satz looked great, scarier than he did back in the day! Sporting a shaved head, goatee, multiple earrings in each ear and lots of tats, he stalked and prowled the stage alternately singing and chuggin a Bud!! They did everything off their first EP, a bunch off "American Wino" and some new songs, too. The fact that the band features Bob Clic, plus Bob's son is pretty wild. Kurt "Blobbo" Vanderhoof was there, egging the band on, and even got up on stage to play drums on "Lewd Conduct!" Of course, they did "Kill Yourself" as their last song.

What can I expect to pay for this? Did you order it online? I have an eighties comp called "Play New Rose For Me" that has some artists from the label covering OTHER artists from the label which I thought was pretty cool. It shows the calibre of the roster at the time too. Anyone remember the Fortune Tellers perchance. Awesomely gritty badass blues similar to The LeRoi Brothers et al. Also Dino Lee the King Of White Trash?? New Rose kept us sane during those times when it seemed like music was quickly turning to grey shite.
