Charles Brown Dynamic, progressive instrumental rock music, with some elements of fusion, intricately textured, varied and based on a theme. That describes Charles Brown’s album Journey in a new Land. Reminding me of the group Yes, Charles Brown creates sophisticated, enrapturing instrumental rock music.

The Big Media have done a great job in prioritizing consumerist, hedonistic, entertaining heroes, and have moved the rescue workers off the radar screen (except on special holidays or following any unusual national emergency). In the case of environmentalists, human rights activists, etc., they generally receive attention only following major tragedies, otherwise they are treated as peripheral news items largely because they are “downers” who are at odds with the indulgent obsessions of our Zeitgeist.” Read the rest of this entry » Musicians Against Parkinson’s Officially Launch New Site & Olympic Figure Skater Craig Buntin Gets on the MAP! Nigel Clothier Nigel Clothier makes music for adults. Music to relax by. Turn it on and you get transported to a terrace in the mountains on a warm summer day, and you’re sitting there in the shade drinking a cold non-alcoholic wheat-beer….. Ahhhhh….

With his rather gravely named album “How I Want to Die” one could easily suspect that he would be the poster child for the The World The Voluntary Euthanasia Society (see: http://www.euthanasia.cc) or perhaps The Federation of Right To Die Societies (http://www.worldrtd.net).

In contrast to the standoffish typical European behavior where people walk by each other as if they don’t exist, John came by our table and greeted us with a friendly “Good Morning”. On the way out, we told him how nice it was to meet a friendly person. After getting to talking, he told us that he wrote books, and to check out his web site.

Salme’s throbbing energetic music is something that you don’t usually hear before midnight, and then only filtered through layers of chemicals. Read the rest of this entry » the pocket gods Within the first 20 seconds of listening to the pocket gods, one thought and one thought only formed in my head: “they sound like the Velvet Underground!”. Some more listening confirmed this. the pocket gods sound like some of the most famous music from the late 60s or early 70s, like the music from the iconic The Velvet Underground and Nico album, but also the Rolling Stones’ fabulous Exile on Main Street, or possibly even David Essex, with his Rock On album.
