Re: (TV) New Lloyd album out on Monday



Thanks Robin. I'll need to get it and see if it is better than "The Radiant
Monkey". I liked some songs off it but felt it could have done with a bit more
quality control. In some parts the lyrics are more predictable than ever and I
felt myself knowing what the next line is in songs I hadn't heard!  

I love
that "Amnesia" song, it rocks.

Does anyone else out there get
psychic-lyric-rock-song syndrome?

picked this up yet?


sorry, i meant to respond to this when it came up awhile
back.  i picked up a copy at the austin show (oddly, at the dallas show --
where there were about three paying customers -- i never saw a merch table).
i had low expectations -- not a big hendrix fan, and the idea of a hendrix
covers album didn't seem so great.  i was pleasantly surprised.  it sounds
great.  very well recorded -- in a raw loud guitar sort of style.  perhaps
because i'm not married to any hendrix originals, i thought the covers came
off well.  my fave on the disc is "bold as love."  

a side note on this --
his merch guy was charles m. taylor, the old rock journo i read a lot in the
70s.  it was a bit of a treat for me to meet him.  supposedly taylor was
touring with him to help work on lloyd's memoirs.  but i think taylor bolted
with ficca and hartell towards the end of the tour, no?
