pete fornatale

 i remember listening to pete fornatale on wnew on the clock radio barbara ann got me for my 16th birthday. everything i ever learned to love about music started there on pete fornatale's show.
he died today at 66..  rest in peace and thanks for sharing the best music.

railroads

thinking of steam engies,those giants of the tracks;huge and covered in soot.
"time runs like a freight train"...a line from a song,a long time of track extending thru mountains, over bridges and thru cities in the dead of night.

 .

rest in peace, levon helm

it was with much sadness that i read of the death of levon helm of the band. everything i ever saw or read about levon helm was positive. he appears to have been a real good guy.

i'm convinced there's a special place in heaven for the music makers. levon is there now, along with bandmates rick danko and richard manuel.   i hope they are playing up a storm.
