Hi jammers,
I have an original LOST IN THE SKY for sale (proper CDs - NOT CD-R). It's
made in Germany (Gemma Label). It comes in a regular 2CD case (no, it's not
that one in a digi-pack). The whole thing is perfect, mint condition. Price
is US$60 plus shipping.
First com, first serve. Thanks,
C.

Hi, folks:
The latest Artist Shop newsletter is out and you'll find it in its entirety
at <http://www.artist-shop.com/news.htm>. Here are a couple excerpts for DT
fans.
I let the cat out of the bag on this when I did the Mullmuzzler give away.
Here's the official notice for our James LaBrie IRC Chat
<http://www.artist-shop.com/irc>. James La Brie, vocalist for Dream Theater
and his recent solo project, Mullmuzzler, will be joining The Artist Shop
and Talk City on Wednesday, September 8 at 9pm eastern/6pm pacific.
Inspired by his father, James started singing and playing drums at age 5.
By the age of ten, he was performing in a barber shop quartet with his
father, uncle and brother. Yet James' real love was rock music which he
pursued by his early teens. At age 21, he began vocal training with the
renowned vocal coach Rosemary Patricia Burns. After working with several
Canadian bands, James became the vocalist for Winter Rose, which almost
signed with Atlantic Records. Then Pierre Paradis, who managed the band Voi
Vod, approached James regarding a solo project with Aquarius Records. He
also told James about a New York based band called Dream Theater who were
looking for a vocalist. The rest, as they say, is history.
James will join us to discuss his latest project, Mullmuzzler, slated to be
released on Magna Carta <http://www.artist-shop.com/magna> in late August.
With the help of the venerable Terry Brown, producer of Rush's output during
the '70's, James built, shaped, then fine-tuned nine distinct, heartfelt and
often bombastic tracks, all of them co-writes with an army of the field's
hottest creators including members of Shadow Gallery, Matt Guillory of
Dali's Dilemma, and Trent Gardner from Magellan and Exploreres Club. So the
writers planted the seed and the players made it grow. Towards that end,
Jame tapped co-writer and keyboardist Matt Guillory, scary Zappa-orbiting
guitarist Mike Keneally and his gravity-defying bassist from Beer for
Dolphins, Bryan Beller, plus Mike Mangini (best known for his work with
Extreme and Steve Vai) for a little musical witchery down in LA. The result
is a banquet of purifying rock, some of it slamming in a Zeppelin frame of
mind, some of it reminiscent of Queen and possibly Styx, some of it simply
the most elegant classic rock you will ever hear. And, hopefully, James
will also share with us the progress being made on the forthcoming Dream
Theater album!
Speaking of Mike Keneally who turned in such a masterful performance on the
Mullmuzzler album, on our Mike Keneally/Immune page
<http://www.artist-shop.com/immune> you'll find his forthcoming release,
Nonkertompf!!! Mike's seventh album, Nonkertompf, is an instrumental effort
featuring Keneally playing everything, including guitars, keyboards, drums,
sax, a stool and about a dozen other devices. It's a 74-minute
stream-of-consciousness flight-of-fancy that takes the listener on an
unparallelled sonic journey. Countless styles and moods are explored and
seamlessly sewn together, always with extraordinary musical precision, rich
orchestrational sense and a very big heart. After two successful U.S tours
of his own in 1998, Keneally is set to embark on a worldwide tour with Steve
Vai, during which he'll be aggressively promoting Nonkertompf on each stop
of the journey. Nonkertompf is Mike's very first release on his own brand
new label, Exowax!
On our Immune page <http://www.artist-shop.com/immune> you'll also find the
following gigs for Mike Keneally and Beer for Dolphins:
MK/BFD Wednesday Night Workouts
Wednesday, September 1, 9:30 p.m. & 11:30 p.m.
Last in the series. Featuring Nonkertompf songs played live for the first time

Hi there
I seem to have missed out on the following digests:
Nos 5023-28 inclusive and 5031-38 inclusive.
Has there been a problem with the server or something else?
Would some kind person (Korg perhaps?) like to forward them to me if they
exist?
Thanks a lot.

>An incredible "DT Medley" by Empty Tremor, a superb "Metropolis" by Overlife,
>a wonderful interpertaion of "Surrounded" by CMKY and many other great works.
Arash, please! While I would agree that "Surrounded" was pretty nice,
and Empty Tremor are really good at doing the same thing they're
doing all the time (cloning DT), the "Metropolis" cover just SUCKS.
C'mon, before I just THINK about covering (copying!) a quite
difficult and demanding piece like "Metropolis" I'd ask myself if I'm
really capable of doing this or if I should spend another year or two
in the rehearsing room. These guys didn't. Obviously. Their drummer's
timing sounds like he's falling downstairs with his kit (a phrase
once used for describing the Venom drummer ;-))
>just how good James LaBrie is. These guys can all hit the notes, yes, but
>there's no power there. [...]
They can't. Listen to the Eleventh Hour singer.
And you are complaining about James' live vocals...
CMKY's cover of Surrounded was different, very nice vocals, though
she should better quit Mariah Carey mode ;-) Their original song fits
her voice even better, very weird and dark stuff, a bit too much of
everything, but at least it's not another plain DT clone. Both the
cover and the original were among the few tracks I listened to with
interest (and without getting spasms everywhere ;-)...). I also sort
of liked the original track by Moon Of Steel, I guess the female
vocals help a lot, I'm really sick of those thin (male) prog metal
voices.
If you want a great tribute album, get the ELP tribute "Encores,
Legends & Paradox", featuring James, Mike, Derek, and Jordan, and
many other great players and singers. They followed a simple rule for
making cover versions: Create something new and interesting without
destroying the original. Just listen to the surprisingly funky "A
Time And A Place", or the incredible "Karn Evil". Actually I like
some, if not most of the cover versions better than the originals!
Very refreshing stuff. I can't imagine someone with two ears left say
that about the covers on Voices.

BTW, I'm considering checking out Bozzio in Albany because from what I've read here, he's the shit. Are there any sound files on the web I can find with this guy? Wait a minute, I just remembered.... he's on Age Of Impact, isn't he? Shite, I may have to dig that one back out... the album as a whole did nothing for me (and I really like some of Magellan's stuff... dunno what the problem was with AoI, tho'), so I listened to it once and put it away. I think I liked 1 song off it.... Impact 2, maybe? Bah... anyway, are there any other sound files out there where I can get a taste of Bozzio?

Here's a nifty little trick to finding old jam's that few people seem to know about...
Skadz does a damn sweet job of keeping old 'jams available to everyone on the dreamt ftp server. Just copy and paste this into your browser (or click it if your mailer supports web links :)) and it'll take you to the Jam Files. :) Be patient, it takes a little time to load. All of the files are in ytsejam.#### format. Double-clicking should open it right up to read. :)
ftp://ftp.dreamt.org/pub/ytsejam/ for all of your Ytse-needs. :)
I think there's supposed to be a way to fetch jams from the server via email, but I can't remember how you do it...
Anyway, happy jamming! -- KorgX3 eats oreos and milk. NP: Pearl Jam - Ten

I don't know that movie. It must not be a horror movie. Guess I need to check it out, huh?
Anyway,- I picked up a CD single for 99 cents Friday. It's Fish's "Never Mind The Bullocks" single, consisting of three cover tunes. Can any of you esteemed Marillion experts on the list tell me how these tunes compare to Fish's solo albums, or even Fish-era Marillion, since I'm not familiar with either?

Yes, Jim wrote all the music for the album and they got Kevin to play it to give it a live feel... He said somewhere that he pretty much played it as written, but added little embelishments here and there....

You guys really need to get this album, The music is a lot easier to listen to than the 1st, they definately have found their own groove on this CD, and I have never heard Lajon sound better. He actually SINGS on most of this one, doesn't yell like the first one. THe songs are a bit more personal too. This could be the Metal album of the year.
