It’s music day! No, I don’t know why. I’m showing my age, here, but so what. Have a few websites for artists I like.* First, Bonnie Raitt, who proved 30 years ago that women could play the blues as well as sing them. This is the new “under construction” site, but it’s got links to the old one. Discography, links to music and cause sites; good stuff. Crosby Stills Nash & Young; official site which needs a lot of work. Hardly comprehensive. Neil Young. A work in progress; mostly promoting his new album. However, he’s got an EZ-board community. Joni Mitchell. This is a very comprehensive site, including discography, writings, a discussion forum, links to sites of interest (musicians and otherwise), and selected art. James Taylor. Official site. Discography, bio, message board. Carole King. Official site. Under construction, but getting there. Message board, news, new album clips, discography and timeline (still to come). Jackson Browne. News, discography, tour info, and a flavor of his activism through reproduced letters and columns with which he obviously agrees. Finally (and why does this not surprise me?), by far the most comprehensive and amusing site of all: Arlo Guthrie. If you don’t look at any other of these sites, look at Arlo’s; he’s got all manner of material up. News, lyrics/tablature for music, message boards, photos…sheesh! Enjoy!
*These site links were all good 10 days ago; presumably they still are.
your taste in music sounds like a cross between mine and Scott’s … nifty
Just a chile of the sixties, Shelley! đ
Hey, I know all of these names too. I think the only one I would protest would be James Taylor who I find creepy and don’t really want to hear more of, musically. I’m sure, if I ponder on it, I could come up with some stories as to why…
Anyway, Bonnie is cool – all lil girls should be required to listen to her and watch the Behind the Music ep on her – minus the gossipy bits, but focused on her remarkable career.
But Arlo really rocks.
*goes off to sit on the group W bench*
Hey – didja ever find the shmoo images? I want a copy when you do! There’re a lil Abner staple – taste like chicken apparently – but I can’t remember where I saw images of em…
Um, Batty…James Taylor is creepy? Huh? But then, beyond a scant few of his songs he’s not really my cup o’ tea, so maybe I’m just missing something.
Nearly everyone you’ve mentioned, Linky, is in my CD collection. :0)
You know my books page? I think I’ll put up a CD page (not to be confused with my LP page, because I don’t want to type 325 LP titles); the CD collection is a more manageable 30 or so.
Hmmm. Some of these artists seem vaguely familiar….. Hehehe.
Cheers!
