R.I.P James Brown
The Guru and I had tickets to see James Brown on Sunday January 14th, 2006 in Prince George, BC at The Civic Centre. Alas, it was not to be. Thanks for the music!
To offset the pain of missing James Brown (by a mere 3 weeks!), I purchased a sealed 2 lp set, "Get on the Good Foot" for an excellent price of $26.99 at a new cd / record store in town....which looks promising, but small. The name of the store in question is Meow's.

I've been taking a nice long unemployed vacation by being a bum...a lazy bum...but a well rested bum!

Lots of new music aquired over the past month that needs to be dissected to determine which ones NEED to be passed to those needing a shot of new music in their life!!
Psychedelic stuff (Archaelogies / Rubbles / Unknowns: great series' one and all - Wyld Canada vol. 3 awesome! Coming your way Randy!!)
New Stuff (John Cale's new live one is great - Nick Cave's last studio could be his best - new Ozrics, Widespread panic, Outkast to hear)
Old obscure shit (Catapilla floored me!! King Crimson with wild vocals courtesy of Anna Meek - Curved Air's "Air Conditioning" is great - Folkdove from 1975 is beautiful folk - Groundhogs need more digging - and who's Art?)
Classic Tuneage (filling out my Hendrix, Clapton, Animals, Ramones and Bowie collections. Time to start working on the James Brown collection)

Finally...Happy New Year to one and all. I hope the new year is better for everybody...then it'd be a better world...ahhhhhh...
A shout out to Mole...Thanks for the cds. Love the shows! It was fun to hear Tim Gibbons again. Reminded me of the old days of Hamilton...
