| Essential Zappa: what's missing from my collectio ahhh yes, mr belew is a master! i saw him many times... first few with king crimson, then many times solo (and of course with zappa). i used to take a lot of heat when i was a kid for wearing my twang bar king t shirt everyday! | |
| Essential Zappa: what's missing from my collectio i like the stuff with bozio and adrian belew, zoot allures, shiek yerbouti era..black napkins was always one of my favorite solos and i love adrian belew's vocal on city of tiny lights...some of my fondest concert memories too. | |

| Have you heard Crystal Bowersox? siobahn appeals to folks like me who are not into the artists you list (joplin, raitt, crow...). that stuff is old and tired to me and things have come a long way since those ladies. for the indie crowd and those who can see beyond the scream, she... | |
| Have you heard Crystal Bowersox? ok...i shamefully admit that i watch american idol. i agree, this chick can sing and i respect her integrity as an artist as well. i happen to think siobhan magnus is just as talented if not more. her version of paint it black was astounding. she ... | |
