VSBfromH 74 Posted August 18, 2006 Milton Kaye, pianist. Died aged 97 Never heard of him, but he has to be admired for his versatility: "Gave U.S. Premiere of Shostakovich's 1st Piano Concerto" "toured war zones with violinist Jascha Heifetz" "wrote theme music for the TV quiz show 'Concentration,'" "His broadcasting credits included... "The Rootie Kazootie Show," for which he played the organ." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,438 Posted August 18, 2006 Milton Kaye can't say I'd heard of him either and there is a problem with some people like him that they're so old and so off the radar that those editing the likes of the Wikipedia haven't heard of them either. Shame, interesting fella. As Emlyn Hughes might have said: 'The lad done tremendous.' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, the unwritten deathlist rules states that pricks like you are not allowed to post as guests. Lets face it, you know that you have been put on mod approval and this guest stunt is just a way for you to continue being an ass. You shant get away with it. Thus if it continues, I will push for you to be banned. By the way iain, those moderators who support you - they've gone quiet all of a sudden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brinsworth House Baiter 12 Posted August 18, 2006 I dunno, I do something outrageous and out of character like a couple of day's work and look what happens when I get back here. Iain's in trouble again and Windsor's on the warpath again, wearing a kilt and flexing his moderate muscle. I miss this place when I'm not here you know.

Phantom 2,518 Posted August 18, 2006 John Locke the keyboardist for Spirit died on the August 4th. He was 63. People might have heard of the band, but probably not of John Locke. I remember reading one poll regarding cover versions of Bob Dylan songs, that one cover version of a Dylan song was ranked amongst the top 10 worst covers. Alongside Shatner's version of Mr Tambourine Man I believe it was their version of The Times They are a-changin' but I'd have to have a check at home.

maryportfuncity 10,438 Posted August 18, 2006 Re Spirit: I posted some information about Ed Cassidy - their drummer - on the dead drummers thread. At this rate 83 year old Ed will be the last of the classic line up to die. It's down to him, Jay Ferguson and Mark Andes now. The cover version in question is Times They Are...from Spirit of 76 although, TBH, I think this very unfair. The band always worked partly in a jazz tradition so they tended to re-invent stuff rather than cover it. Spirit of 76 is a stoney classic of its kind, they don't do Dylan the way he intended but they do him with a sense of life and adventure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MFPC, I'd really need to double check at home with regards to the actual song that was covered, I have it on a compilation disc somewhere. One thing I remember about the compilation that it's on is that it features another of the worst covers of a Dylan song which was Melanie's version of Lay Lady Lay. The vocals on the Spirit cover that I remember were done very much like a whisper. It's a strange cover and I guess it didn't go down too well with the critics. I don't mind it myself, but I'd have to listen to it a few times again. One of my favourite covers is by New Riders of The Purple Sage and it's their version of Dusty Old Fairgrounds. Quite a lively number. I also like Lou Reed's version of Foot of Pride Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
