I don't have the early Prestige album but I do have Pottery Pie, 2 albums he did with Amos Garrett, some of the Kweskin albums and then some recent stuff. It sounds like I may have some rare treasures. I just value them as enjoyable listening.
It aint easy all we can do is try and if that oppurtunity arises then it is a blessing and a gift to the world .Come Together Imagine and you never know ! What will be will be ! Mark was ahead of his time in vision and the spoken wordthat eminates deep from within the heart of us all ✌️The Voice of Reason! I think 😘
Ive allways loved his work! My favorite Only Human ! Everything's ng about it the ryrhym the melodie the beat the band the lyrics and the man himself ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤💜😄😄😄💜💜💜👏👏👏👏💓What a great talent and natural Mark remains true to his craft!
I've not heard this before. Nic has always cracked me up! He is a complete loon! A very clever and funny man. Ridiculously talented, although he wouldn't say so. And really lovely to hear Julia's voice.❤
Really great interview but Ray made it easy..What an interesting intelligent articulate guy.. Interesting life ..I always wondered about how the name Mungo Jerry came about..In the Summertime never gets old..What a fun song..So much going on.. I could listen to Ray all day.. I'd love to hear who he was friends with in the music business.. I'm sure he had many.. what a personable guy
Got to see him in Vancouver when he was about 92 . He played flawlessly , 12 string electric guitar, full voice. What a great body of work he left . Played 6 string electric in earlier days with such elevated skills . RIP great man .
Hi,I still can,t find out what guitars Christine and JJ play,anyone?Btw,i love JJ&Chr.The collected cd is fantastic,play it over and over again.Cheers from Amsterdam,Koos
Nic is one of my favourite artists. Lovely to hear his speaking voice having listened to his songs for so many years. I put him alongside Paul Simon and James Taylor in the feeling he communicates through voice and guitar.
There are two Kate Wolf song books published by her family(?) Contain all her words and many pictures plus of course,her music.I have both & highly recommended to any Kate/Nina fan;-)
RIP Cyndi, so sad to hear of your passing. I still play Home Truths often - 22 years after I bought it directly off you after we’d both played a gig in Carlton one night. A brilliant songwriter and sincere, lovely person, thank you for the music x
One of the strangest performances I’ve ever experienced by any band was in Saint Louis, circa 1980. It was essentially in a gigantic circus tent. On one side were women in bikinis mud wrestling and on the other side, Iron Butterfly. It was SRO and the band played the long version of “In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida” as an encore along with the songs from the same album as the main playlist. Doug Ingle sang lead, and all the core members were there; including bassist Dorman and drummer Bushy. It was just sad how far Iron Butterfly had fallen; considering the “venue.”

There were no other bands, opening acts. We stood approximately 15’ feet away. There was maybe 500 people at most. The whole performance was 90 minutes or less. It was just sad how far Iron Butterfly had fallen; considering the “venue.”
I was on a Cruise once with him and his band as main entertainers great show. We set at the table right next them in the dining room, small boat great cruise..
I am just curious if the instrumental portion of Classical Gas was part of the original tune or added in collaboration with other artists. I love the addition of him as a cartoon playing the other instruments in the rendition. It's so cleaver.
