Been finding and downloading covers of "Blessed Relief." There's some really good stuff out there. Lots of covers of "Peaches," too. - updated 23 days ago

All the very best to you and yours during this holiday festive season.
Have a good one and The Best Of Health to you and yours
Cheers
Glad to be of service to an overseas visitor, and that's quite an honour for me. I took in five shows on this tour and met up with many DZW friends old and new, and it really adds to the experience.
Quite a coincidence we should meet in that way, let's hope we bump into each other again before too long.
I just learned that DZ played guitar on Spinal Tap's "Diva Fever," from the "Break Like the Wind" release. My respect continues to grow...
My fascination with "Any Kind of Pain" continues. Check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bksTWhelw0Y. It's from Barcelona in May 1988, the doomed "Best Band You Never Heard in Your Life" tour, which I got to see about a week later in Mannheim. Great stuff.
A week to go, then off to Vegas and a raft trip through the Grand Canyon. Can't wait.
Another 8 hours in the box today, with the boss letting folks out 3 hours early for the holiday weekend. I don't expect much to get done today.
Hello there
Good to meet you.
Best of health to you and yours.
Can't get The Police's "Miss Gradenko" out of my head this morning. Why? Why!?
Steve: Louis Prima is like Tabasco: fun, different and exciting, but you've got to take it in small doses. Too much, and your head hurts.
Thank you for request. Seeing Louis Prima on your list of music made me laugh because my parents listened to him. Nice to meet you
