George...Is that You????

Do you remember the Atherton's or Frankie Fi8sher? PP?

At the moment, no.

I know you were there papa ou.

Was that the Blows Against the Empire tour?

Was that the Blows Against the Empire tour? Not ..sure!!

Not ..sure!!

papa john creech played with them on that tour.

maybe we both had some "foggy" moments during those concert years.

I had seen Black Sabbath as the opener for so many bands all their music began to mix together.

Did you see Alice Coopers Love it to Death tour?

He opened for John Mayall. Didn't stay for his portion of the show.

I use to have a "Hot Tuna" LP. Is Papa John Creech still alive? Never saw Alice Cooper.

Died in 1994.

Remember Scarlet Rivera?

No! ????

If you attended the Bob Dylan Rolling Thunder tour she played violin.

I Remember most her performance of Isis...................

She plays multiple instruments and great vocals...............

Hot Tuna played in Oklahoma City recently. I think they were at the Conservatory on Western of all places. Blue Cheer played there also. I noticed the bass player of Blue Cheer recently died.

I am into seventies classic rock and progressive rock. I never saw Kansas in the 70's but have seen them 46 times since 1992. They just released a DVD recorded with the Washburn University Symphony that I had the privilege of attending the taping. Kerry Livgren, who wrote Carry on Wayard Son and Dust in the Wind performed on a few songs although he is not a current member of the band. Unfortunatley, he had a massive stroke on September 1 and can not play the guitar right now. The DVD is really good. I saw Yes and Asia this summer in Fort Worth at the Bass Music Hall Downtown. They actually played the Muskogee Civic Center the next night to about 400 people. Steve Howe played guitar for both bands on that tour. He is about 62 years old and can still play really well.

OK!!.. You jogged my memory...Now I remember.. Dylan was awesome at the Loyd Noble in '78 (I think that was the year).

I am talking earlier like 1976 and at the fairgrounds, not the arena. You had: Dylan, Joan Baez, Roger Mcquinn, Kinky Friedman (of the Flying Burrito Brothers fame and a candidate for Texas governor in 2010) and others I am sure.

Scarlett may have played in that 1978 concert.

Kind of like Abbie Hoffman, "If you can remember the 60's you weren't there!"

'62 through '87 is a big blank for me. 25 years well spent.

Don't worry, they didn't really exist. They told me so at Woodstock.

I still haven't figured out what they meant by Music and ART festival.

The "art" was "expressionist" in nature.

And I am sure there was plenty expression going on in and out of the woods.....

Does anybody remember or see Hank Williams Jr. at the LongBranch Saloon on S. Agnew about 77 or 78? I was there but, not real sure of date.

I remember the concert but not the year. Maybe 77.

Saw David Allan Coe, when he was good at the Diamond Ballroom 76.

Also, would Taylor Swift have won all the awards back in the 60's???

There have been (too) few female country artists in the last decade plus. Lots of lovely lasses have done well via the Nashville machine, some young, some less so, all with very decent pipes. However, commercially viable, even amazingly so, does not make something country. It just makes money.

Yep, you know Oklahoma sports the best female artists for country....Reba, Wanda Jackson, Norma Jean, Those ladies are the beginning of the current country phenom...

I noticed now days they might have a little fiddle or some bango in a song and call it "Country" when to me it's far from it.

I liked Patsy Cline....really like Loretta, Reba and Dolly....Martina McBride is good....Then of Course Kellie Pickler is holding on to the Country along with the sassiness of Miranda Lambert.......But then there is dear old Gretchen Wilson...."Red-Neck Woman"...I like the others they just aren't Country....
Jennifer Nettles (Sugarland) is so much like Janis Joplin that it is "wild". I guess the country story telling is what I look for....."you belong to me"...and "15" is more for the teenie boppers....and I'm Not against that but, it's just not country. Miley Cyrus (Phenom specialist) wasn't country...just like Annette Funicello wasn't Rock 'n Roll.

I liked Patsy Cline...
Now we're talkin'!

What about Emmylou Harris, Kd Lang, Tracey Nelson?

I agree that country today is not country of the 1960's. But how many awards would Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Charlie Daniels been given as performers?

If you ask me Garth Brooks is the most no country artist without talent to be called an icon. If he is/was a great performer why would he need the pyrotechnics?

Now we're talkin'!

Well alrighty then! Here's what makes this a "forum". I disagree with you about Garth. He DOESN'T need pyrotechnics. He is best when he is just one guy with a guitar, singing his own music. I've heard him with my own ears and he does a great job with just about any song he sings. He and I have a mutual friend who has a lot of the inside scoop on Garth. He has sold so many records because he has true talent and was savvy enough to hook it up with some marketing genius.

I'm probably one of the first to speak up when people without legitimate country credentials turn up as "country" artists, but he's the real deal. (In my humble opinion)

My youngest brother's daughters used to nanny for Ty someone. He lived in
Yukon or Piedmont.

Ty England.....He was with Garth for quite some time. His mother was a REAL GOOD customer at the stores.....She kept me up on what was going on and were they were etc. Very nice lady ....Pretty also....

Hey:...once agan, I'm sorry I missed Saturday's meeting....Other things at hand...One of Oklahoma's own Country singers and personality Jody Taylor (of Jude 'n Jody) passed away Saturday. Quite a shocker to me as he was a very good friend...remember his family at this time if you would.....

a friend of mine said she saw a teenager with a CD called "Oldies" it was fully of 80's music. I feel old.

I saw Elvis in concert in April 1956. It was his second appearance. He was backup for Bill Haley and the Comets about Oct or Nov 1955. I never heard the story where he got banned after a concert. I just thought it was because he started doing movies and quit touring anywhere for about 15 years. Wanda Jackson was one of the singers who sang before Elvis in the April 1956 show. That was at the Municipal Auditorium. The best show I saw there was in the fall of 1959 - Dick Clark's Cavalcade of Stars -- had a lot of the top artists of the day.

If you read Wanda Jackson's Bio you'll find that she used to date Elvis.....While attempting to get the Christmas tree lights down (not my favorite thing) I found a stack of 78 records from Bill Haley to Bill Monroe....Don't know where they came from....There was one jimmy Rodgers in the stack and "Blue Moon from Kentucky" by Bill Monroe was there also. HMMM....
Guess the magical van strikes again......
