Thanks, Mr. Bryant, but the commish has called the draft. We're all sensitive right now. Tragedy hurts all of us. We were doing this out of music love. Thanks again. I also vented yesterday out of frustration. I'd been to an amphitheater on Sunday and could have been one of those people. (I was in San Diego). It's just gobsmacking, and sad.

Huh. I got home late last night from LAX a little wound up, so I caught up on this thread then auditioned several still available for my scraps band. Mostly I just felt like writing about a few of them but also I'm pretty curious to see if a few no-brainers-to-me get sniped.

Yeah, something like that. Commish called it. That's sorta it for me. Pick at your leisure.

OK, last two members of my group, DamNation:
10xx. Laura Nyro, songwriter. Upstairs by a Chinese Lamp Probably the least appreciated great artist of my lifetime and source of my deepest fan adoration before i got into the biz myself, which changes everything in that manner of feeling. Not that she was obscure. Before 1970, no American musical act made diddly from album sales (usually 2-3 cents an album). Dylan broke the seal at Columbia and then David Geffen made his bones by negotiating the largest American record deal in history for his one-horse stable, largely off the promise in her songs covered by Fifth Dimension & Three Dog Night. Unfortunately, he flipped that into the chance to sign just about everyone in Laurel Canyon and left Miss Nyro flat. Since he built his relationship with Laura by becoming her confidant (taking all the 4am calls & such, calming the doubts of reaching), almost her ego-by-proxy, i dont think she ever stabilized, never mind recovered, from the betrayal.
Now the personal part. All boys & girls knew about each other in the 60s was that getting one was naughty & spectacular. I had more experience than most of my counterparts because i was in a lot of communes as a runaway, but was still a fumbler in almost every way. When i got back to school in the winter of my senior year, i got thunderstruck by a stunning (almost the spitting image, oddly enough, of the girl in Petty's Free Falling vid) art-class chick (the worst, right?), who was like 47 times outta my league. If i didnt have big cred from already having been out in the cold, cruel world i never would have even tried. But i still needed an in, so i listened close and found out that, like most art-class chicks, she was a big fan of this girl singer who wore all black & such. Just so happened that a day or two later, the radio announced that Laura Nyro was playing Boston and tickets were going on sale the next day. Up before the sun, i drove into town and was among the first in the creepiest line i ever stood in. Fifth row center, baby. Summoned all my courage, asked my dreamdish, got me a date.
But that weren't enough. I wanted to know this singer i'm taking her to. Bought Nyro's three records and found out, boom, this was like the Coltrane of chicks. She was like an explorer's rough-won map of the coastline of femaleness. All the depth and exposure and fear and love and secrets and creepiness (again) i had NO idea went on inside those pretty hearts. And the concert was more of the same. But the weird thing was that, even though you knew that everyone watching Miss Nyro pound at her piano with all those weird partial chords that were as mysterious as KRichards's 5-string guitar tunings, knew every word of every song, none of them sang along (i never understood why folks do that anyway, but they do). It's like they weren't going to miss a single intonation from the Mistress of their pain & hope. Extraordinary.
And the best was yet to come. As me & my girl walked the cold night back to the car, she hooked my arm in a way i remember as tenderly as anything in my life. Our walk got a rhythm that said "man with woman" instead of "man vs. woman" and i understood. A few glorious months ensued before status & college got in the way. And i've chased that feeling ever since,
In a great moment of serendipity, i got to watch the Mistress at work just a few years later. I was at a recording studio and an engineer friend invited me along to deliver some tapes to a recording session on the North Shore. Turns out it was Miss Nyro recording her Smile album and i got to see what i'd heard about her arranging technique. She had synesthesia, saw sounds as colors and i watched her berate the great windsman Joe Farrell for not playing "orange" enough.
11xx. Rahsaan Roland Kirk, otherwordly other. The Inflated Tear I've recounted stories about my very early access to a great jazz club that my father used to take me to and leave me at in order to woo a dancer who worked across the street. Well, a lot of the jazz fans (and even some of the musicians) @ Lenny's were astounded to see a white 12yo diggin' Errol Garner by his lonesome and they used to invite me to sit with them. I got to know this one jazzbow for whom jazz was life, mostly because his hair & face all got burned off in a fire and the jazz world was very accepting when the real world was not. I liked getting used to his scary contours and sat with him many times. He told me there was one cat i just had to see, but i was a teenager and my old man wasnt gonna take me to see no avant garder even as an alibi.
The club burnt down and there went that. By the time the owner was able to find another venue, i was old enough to have friends who drove so, the first time i saw this Rahsaan Roland Kirk that Scaryface told me about on the bill, i bribed a friend to take me. Sure enough, Scaryface was there and we caught up on "old" times. And then a truly amazing experience unfolded - there were like 40 musical instruments set out upon a Persian rug onstage and this blind, rough-lookin' cat came out and played every one of them and, as you can see in the video, as many of em at one time as possible. I've seen him play three horns, two drums, a nose whistle and a headband of deelybopper bells at once. And a tremendous melodic sense with em too, as evidence by this song many of you may know from Tull recording it.
Now, Bird & Coltrane & Miles & Diz are all still out there, why you takin this weirdo, wikkid? Well, i just always got the sense that Rahsaan wanted to be invited into the world of modern electric music because sound was what he was all about, so i'm invitin'.
My vision of DamNation as a band next time. Glad the thread was reopened & gladder to hear Eephus close the circle of Americana he began with Levon Helm with his encomium of Glen Campbell

ok, the other shoe has dropped on my work schedule... gonna make this fast.
10... Gary Burger.... singer
considering I had intended Etta here, I'm not exactly sure how this works... but I have more of a blues/rock/proto belter in Tyner, a one note mood guy in Curtis, and now a garagey collaborative singer who can get some nice falsettos in there without being precious about it while singing along, lead or backing vocals. I think he'll work nicely, even though it's a completely different direction. plus, I've only just discovered the Monks recently and have completely fallen for them- happy to draft one of their songs.
was also looking at Bobby Bland and Wikkid's fave, Jay Reatard here.
11... Sheldon "Shelly" Kurland.... fiddle (other instrument).
Shelly is credited with helping create the "nashville sound" as a backing session guy with his own outfit and studio, taking his classical juliard training and bringing it to country. played with everybody in country plus a ton of rock giants, including supposedly the Stones. did a ton for the nashville scene, including being dad to the woman who created the bluebird cafe where so many people got their starts and where all the successful songwriters got a chance to play live (often times with famous friends... only time I went there, I saw some guy named Garth Brooks accompany somebody- had never heard of him).
also, Shelly is my mom's first cousin... which makes him my cousin in law once removed or something.
but if nepotism is out, I was gonna take Fad Gadget (power drills and garbage) or Holger Czukay (shortwave radio)

Melvin Franklin, (Temptations Bass Vocals) was going to be my next vocalist in the 10th. I considered Andrew Wood to potentially team up with Cornell, but decided Melvin was a better fit. There were two others that might have worked also but I am happier with this.
Song is "Papa Was a Rollin Stone."

There he is. Surprised he didn't go soon after Duck. That rhythm section, whew. That's a snipe that completely changes the direction of my band, and one of two I expected. Curious about the other "no brainer" I'm looking at. There's probably dozens, I just had a couple.

sunnava... I kept thinking about buckley (and his dad, and nick drake).. and never scribbled down the names. jeff's upper register would've sounded great with my guys.
and in my research, I stumbled on larock- even though I liked KRS1 and BDP, never knew about his story or involvement. I really wanted to take him, because I still like and listen to the music- but felt like his rapping was kinda forgettable (even though his production and dj work created the sound I love). he was really the guy I referenced when I made my pick.
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
The only rap music I ever really listened to a lot was the Beastie Boys, Public Enemy and BDP/KRS1 in the late 80s/90s (which I loved) - other than that my knowledge is limited to songs here and there.

For my 11th, I will take falsetto vocalist Eddie Kendricks. I wasn't planning on taking two Temptations in my band, but it worked for them so it can work for me.
Song is "Just My Imagination" (of course)
Denny (Top Tier), David, or even Marc could have also worked in this band.

fwiw, I have the same white-guy roster of rap... but I also liked a handful of early 90s outfits: black sheep, pharcyde, poor righteous teachers, guru and jazmattaz and of course wu tan. I think you'd be safe listening to any of that stuff (or brand new heavies' heavy rhyme experience).

With Marvin Gaye, Bob Marley, and Muddy, I figured I had the mid registers covered pretty well already. David would have been a bit repetitive and I was afraid what would happen if Robert Johnson was exposed to cocaine. Although Eddie may have that covered anyway once he quits smoking.

Ain't too bad of a singer, either!
Went to a Barenaked Ladies show in DC, when BNL opened their show with 'Careless Whisper' which was very good (despite what most people think of BNL, Steven Page can sing). They also seemed to have fun on stage, as in this case where after finishing the song, they went off on some stuff, including how they went to see a Wham! show and it was really good, and they figured out why, it was because the show started with a George Michael song. So they thought if they started with a George Michael song, their shows would be better!

This wasn't a draft a band format but seems to have become one along the way
V: Jeffrey Lee Pierce
G: Mick Ronson, Glen Campbell
B: Phil Lynott
K: Nicky Hopkins
D: Levon Helm
O: Augustus Pablo
R: Guru
C: Doc Pomus
I don't need two more singers because Levon, Lynott and Campbell are more than capable of singing when Pierce no-shows for rehearsals. Ronson, Campbell and Hopkins are session aces who can play anything. Pablo can produce the dub remix. Guru has a lot of experience with live backing bands. Doc Pomus has a deep catalog of rock n roll/R&B standards that this band could sight read with their eyes closed.

I would have loved to see where Buckley's talent would have led him. Parts of Sketches for my Sweetheart are great but it's obviously not the way he wanted it to be released. I appreciate his family's efforts to keep his memory (and royalties) alive but some of the posthumous material just isn't very good.plz allow for this yuuuuuge indulgence - i pay homage to the Moz, and this is such a jaw-dropping rendition - that voice

I'm going to move Greg Lake to Guitar from Singer.
9.XX - Ben Orr - The Cars - Moving in Stereo - One of the coolest songs of it's era and as someone posted on Youtube 'Probably responsible for more headphone sales than any other.' Ben Orr had a great voice, and falls into that 'underrated' category of the other thread. Most people consider Rik Ocasek as the the 'lead singer' but Ben Orr did more than his fair share of Cars songs. Oh and most guys of that era think of Pheobe Cates when they hear this song...
10.xx - Cozy Powell - Drums - Touch and Go In an era of a 'fight' between E,L and the original (and last surviving) 'P' of ELP, they needed to push on, so they grabbed a drummer with the appropriate last initial that could actually play (worked with who artists like The Jeff Beck Group, Rainbow, Gary Moore, Robert Plant, Brian May, Whitesnake, and Black Sabbath).
Since I don't feel like doing any more research on this draft, I am closing out mine in a protest of Wikkid being to cleaver and sneaking Keith Emerson in the second round and preventing me from having a whole ELP.

Finally!
I've been following the draft intermittently while traveling and waiting to see his name.
JB was one of the first I thought of when I saw the initial premise---thought he'd go in the first 3-4 rounds. A steal in the 10th. One of my favorite voices.

So many good songwriters across genres - it's really hard to pick. I figured that you can't go wrong with the guy that wrote Superfly.
