Bob Dylan: What do you folks thing about this?
Dylan has always ventured where no other musician would tread. From political activist to born-again christian and back. He does what he wants to do, whether his fans or record company approve or not. From folk music to folk-rock, rock, country, c... 
ain't got no soul: bad covers of great soul songs
If you think white boys playing the blues is bad...how 'bout white boys playing reggae. They should be shot by the sheriff! And smokin ganja, doesn't help them one bit! It would be like Keith Richards singing Amazing Grace...need I say more.

The Rolling Stones doing the Temptations: Aint Too Proud To Beg. IMHO nobody, absolutely nobody, can do a Temptations song better than The (original) Temptations. 
What tattoo to get next?
If you like the blues, get a BB tatoo. Have each B tatooed on each buttock. Just don't bend over when you're undressed, or everyone will want to know who BoB is?

Does "Non Compensated" Reviewing Still Exist?
What we need is a non-profit, public service audiophile publication that doesn't depend on advertising dollars from the very manufacturers whose products are reviewed. Unbiased, objective and factual reviews. Good luck! And may the force be with u...

Martin Logans and Smokers
It's not the nicotine build-up that I'd be concerned with. It's more the tars that can embed anywhere the smoke travels. If you can smell it, it's still there. Most car rentals that allow smoking, can not get rid of the smell when they sell the ca... 
You used to love it but now.......................
I loved Jethro Tull. Seen them a dozen times. Best show was with Electric Light Orchestra. Now, everytime I try to play any of their albums or cd's, I terminate the session after a few tunes. But, for their time, they were one of the most creative...
