oldbuckster Posted October 2, 2006 Author Share Posted October 2, 2006 Piney it just amazes me some of the "old names" that pop back up again......Alot of people passed on guys like Kinky, and the Commander, and now 30 years later there are those names again..............I guess I'm an old fart because the only new CD I want is the new Jerry Lee Lewis........damn my mind is burnt.....

Big Piney Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 OB Yeah , I know. Should have kept the bell-bottoms. There are advantages. We don't have to learn a bunch of new lyrics all the time. At least some of these record companies are re-releasing the old ones on cd now. Some are cleaned up and actually sound better. At least all my grandkids know that Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings. Every time the 4-year old gets into my truck it's................."Play Lynyrd Skynyrd Grandpa!" Ah, the joys of grandpahood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WMcD Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Several decades ago Don Imus appeared on the NYC area radio dial "Imus in the Morning (singing in a typical jingle)." He was the the first, there, shock jock. Tame by present "standards". It was the tail end of class AM radio from the Golden Days. I later left the NYC area and so had no experience with Imus. There was a TV program about Howard Stern not too long ago. During the early days of Imus, HS was a young lad at a small FM rock station in near upstate New York. At least I think those dates match up. My guess is that both of them were testing the good taste of the American people and the tolerance of the FCC with Stern learning from Imus. The best quip I head about Stern was from a broadcast conventions of classic radio announcers. You have to remember that at one time these announcers were the guardians of diction and the American languge. On fellow said, "Mr. Jones can't be with us tonight. He is sick." Another interruped and said, "That is an incorrect word choice. You should say, Mr. Jones is ill, suffering from an illness. Howard Stern is sick." The world changes.

How much fun can you make of some of those poor people? Not for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesboy Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Right you are Rob and at least Don puts his money where his mouth is[] (funny I never saw Rush do anything for anyone other than Rush but he sure buffaloed a large crowd for a long time) Say what you want about Rush's politics but he's raised and contributed a ton of money for good causes.
