Healing
by hillary_step inthere seems to be more open sores on this board than notches on rod stewart's belt, so perhaps the time has come for music.... jesse colin-young, who some may remember as the the pin-man with the youngbloods in the late 60's has linked a work in progress song to his web-site.
it is rather crude at the moment, view it as a sketch.. jesse is a good-hearted man who has never lost hope.
he would probably not be happy to hear me say that his lyrics have never set the world on fire, but he has a purity of spirit and a gentleness that many lose on their path through life.. link: http://www.jessecolinyoung.com/sounds/aloha_e.mp3.

Another One For Jazzers - Solos That Defy Criticism
by hillary_step inwell, i suppose one criticism is allowed and that is that the video and sound are slightly out of synchronism, but just listen to this tenor saxophone solo by the great george adams.
it will raise the hair on your neck.. his tone is almost like a soprano saxophone.
i have no idea how he adjusts his reed to do this, but it is quite incredible.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gktefrmqxws.

'Ambassador', - I am an 'envoy' - What are you!
by hillary_step ina post on the issue of whether the wts allows its adherents to vote churned some reaction from the object that passes for my brain.
if the subject has previously been explained, i hope that you will forgive me.. the wts seems to vacillate in its application of who the term "ambassador" applies to, the 'anointed, 'or the 'great crowd'.
note this comment in the nov. 1st 1999 wt, 'questions from writing'.....sorry - 'readers'.....the apostle paul referred to himself as an "ambassador" representing christ to the people of his day.

Any Richard Thompson Fans?
by hillary_step inif there any richard thompson fans here, he is currently touring the us and should not be missed.
richard is playing as powerfully as ever, is intense a songwriter now as he has ever been, and plays a breathtaking guitar.
he has not been invited on american idol as a paint-by-numbers singer yet, but who knows, if he plays his cards right - .

Jimmy Webb
by hillary_step inthough my heart has always at its center belonged to jazz and british jazz at that, jimmy webb has always of my most cherished musical heroes.
consistent, graceful, with class to burn, always inspirational and above all always in tune, next to mr. bacharach who built a musical world of his own, jimmy has written some of the most enduring and touching melodies in the world of popular music.
many eons ago, when i considered myself a gifted songster i met a man who was jimmy webbs equal.
