Hi Scott,
Since I am new to computers, I have been unable to post this message to the
Slowhand Digest. Would it be possible for you to forward it to the digest?

Hi all,
Thanks to David H. of Australia, I now have a copy of the Bukodan VCD. As
with David's generous offer to me, I will send copies free. That means no
b&p or blank CDs to the first three to respond privately to me regarding
this post. Please include name and full mailing address and the set is
yours.
Cheers,
Renee
rhinton@san.rr.com
P.S. Would someone on this digest explain what the Woking CD is? Many
thanks.
Special thanks to Mark D. for starting this and to David H. for my copies.

Suggestions so far expressed personal aural preferences: sound (e.g.
acoustic) or musical style (e.g. pure blues).
I would not limit it to any single sound or style (to enjoy Eric's
versatility), but rather build it around a THEME - how about
"Eric's Spiritual Journey"
We have numerous evidences of it throughout his career, from 'Presence
of the Lord' through ' Holly Mother' and 'Sinner's Prayer' to 'The
Calling' on Santana's 'Supernatural'. There are explicit Christian songs
(traditional gospel and blues) and less obvious, nevertheless highly
spiritually charged ones. Old mates and influences like Christian
musicians Stevie Winwood, Nathan East and Jerry Lynn Williams (author of
'Running on Faith') can be among guests on the album, maybe even Dave
Markee (bassist from around 'Just One NIght' time, now a church pastor
in Croydon).. I have no doubt that Eric's spiritual journey is still
unfolding, retirement or otherwise, and few have his potential to
influence other lives.
For the cynical amongst us, to whom this 'faith thing' doesn't mean a
lot, I would suggest a cynically commercial reason: Christian Music is
by far the fastest growing segment in the musical industry, in times of
shrinking profits elsewhere. As a producer I see an opportunity: the
right time, the right artist, the right theme - the album will outsell
anything Eric has done in the past (and probably anything released in
the same year).
For those who share my faith and understanding of music as one of God's
ways to work on us, I would offer the album as alternative worship. More
powerful than the self-isolated 'CCM' artists, coming from a man who has
known evil too close and is still capable to WALK ON in a really
convincing manner. Not a bad idea for an album title, btw ('Walk On') -
what do you think?
Just a few crazy thoughts...
Vlado
P.S. Written in the secret hope that Eric's management or
representatives of his label are lurking on this list, ear-to-the-ground
for the Voice of the Market ;o)))

If I was producing EC's next album it would be raw, edgy all around guitar.
You could liken it to journeyman bumped up a few notches. Nuff said.

Subject: Eric as Derek #1
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed
Derek and the Dominos have so much myth swirling around them.
To the rank and file music lovers (this excludes guitar players and most
musicians), most folks did not and maybe still not - know who played what
guitar solo's on the Layla LP.
Eric as god (ie: one of the hottest players around) had all the hot solo's
attribute to him by the rank and file. After the success of the Alllman
Brothers LP AT THE FILLMORE and the death of Duane Allman, still
another group attributed the hot solos to him, as his legend grew.
After all - what rank and file music lovers can tell the difference between
a lot of Dicky Betts and Duane solo's on the Filmore lp? Who can pick out
the Keith Richards vs Brian Jones guitar parts on the early Stones
records? Or John Lennon's guitar and George Harrison guitar on a lot of
Beatles records?
I know a lot of people who came to the Layla lp because of Duane.
Enough!
I sending in 6 parts, a time-line that will illustrate Eric Clapton career
in 1970 and his fellow musicans who are Derek and the Dominos
I look forward to feed back and along with all those who love GOTCHA on the
dates.

Subject: New Orleans' Heritage and Jazz Festival
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
This is a great festival and for those of you who are planning to go to New
Orleans this coming weekend(or thinking about it in the future) to take in
the music and the fun, I just want to say...BE READY to have a wonderful
time!!
We attended the first weekend's festivities on Sunday and had an awesome
time. Living nearby, we chose to drive in and park in the French Quarter and
travel by JazzFest bus transportation. I would highly recommend this even if
you are staying in the City because not only is it inexpensive but you are
delivered conveniently on the site and can travel back at any time to an even
more enjoyable place to party afterwards. Tipatina's is right nearby Canal
Street and the Mississippi River...and there are several other site-stations
in downtown New Orleans to purchase Jazz Festival tickets and also get round
trip transporation to the fairgrounds...very, vry safe! Just go to
JazzFest.com for all the information you want and need.
Jazz Fest been going on for a long time and they really have everything set
up so nicely and professionally with several outdoor stages, many more large
and spacious tents and all the eats, drinks, novelty and craft booths you
could possibly imagine...soooo much to see and hear and EAT!
MY mouth waters everytime I think about the scrumptious-oyster pattie,
crawfish fried biscuits and beignets, stuff artichoke and oyster poboys we
feasted on. EATING in New Orelans is the BEST! Afterwards, we headed on down
to the far side of the grounds to the Blues tent. Of course, I was dying to
visit that stage first. Lil' Buck Blues Band with guest Jerry McCain were
just starting on stage. They had the crowd movin' just fine and it was a
treat to be in a tentful of people WHO love the blues! Most everyone really
moved to the beat of the music! Awesome site!
Speaking of sites! There were plenty funny looking ones! People wear the
craziest things to Jazz Fest!
AS I looked around the tent area, there were huge photographs of bluesmen
hanging from the ceiling...those oldie-but-goodies who had performed at the
festival in years past. Stevie Ray Vaugh ('86)was right up front--hangin'
high.. and his image kept turning and moving in the breezes that swept
through the pavilion...almost as though he was still there and groovin' to
the music! Later we saw a group featuring Chris Thomas King, after we found a
place at an outside stage set up for Allen Toussaint and his band. You've got
to realize, there is a lot of going back and forth to different tents and
stages before and after and catching a little bit of gospel-- here and a
little bit of jazz--there, etc. etc. Dr. John played after Toussaint. The
crowds were getting pretty big and close by then--Melissa Etheridge to
perform later in the evening, but we opted to head back to the French Quater
and have a leisurely drink and a quieter meal.
Again, if you are thinking about making this trip, I don't think you would be
sorry. The festival starts up again on Friday through Sunday evening and I
believe Jimmy Buffet, Bonnie Raitt, Neville Bros, Phil Lesh are among some of
the bigger names next weekend, but much, much more.
While browsing around some of the craft and novelty booths, I came across his
photographer who takes performer's pictures. His name is Scott Saltzman and
here is his website. You just might enjoy viewing some of the photos.
http://scott@barefootphotography.com/
IF not this year---think about it next year...you won't be disappointed. Of
course, New Orleans is a great place to visit, any ole time. :)
