The Avenger Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Obviously people under a certain age will not know that one of the "It's raining Men" singers sang on the Song Sweat and was replaced with a hot & skinny model 632484[/snapback] The fact that you have to explain this for certain younger posters makes me feel REALLY, REALLY old...

Rico Posted March 16, 2006 Author Share Posted March 16, 2006 Now on Dime: Taylor Hicks November 25, 2005 Workplay B'ham., Al This recording is seeding over at e-Tree (thanks to the hard work of Jon Buffington). had not even consider seeding it here until the women in my office went ga-ga when I played it this afternoon. This is the real deal and and a great recording and deserves wider circulation but with only about 100 people poking around the e-Tree seed (no doubt under assumed names), I didn't think it was going to take off there. Hopefully the taper won't be looking for my head!!!!!! Yeah, it's the gray haired guy from American Idol but this is worth a listen before passing off to the wife. Actually, I snuck a second copy into the car and played it again because it is worth a few spins. AI has found a funky Southern guy with talent instead of that fake "I'm a Rocker" Bo Brice crap from last year. The band is tight and funky and he turns in a strong vocal performance on a good selection of covers and originals (including, ironically enough, a Stevie Wonder song). Some A&R type from the major labels should have found him sooner than this and given him and the band a chance to make a record. I actually hope he loses on AI but gets a deal. Should he win on AI, he probably won't get to record with his band and some hotshot producer will eviscerate his natural talen and make him sound like another Kelly Clarkson. The setlist (from a fan over at e-Tree): disc 1 1.Forever Man 2.Heart and Soul 3.Call Me The Breeze 4.Naked In The Jungle 5.? 6.? 7.Birmingham 8.Superstitious 9.Sneakin Sally Through The Alley 10.Turn On Your Love Light 11.Will It Go Round in Circles 12.9 To 5 13.Gonna Move 14.? 15.Southbound disc 2 1.Use Me 2.All's Fair In Love And War 3.Movin' On Up 4.What'dI Say The lineage and other details: Taylor Hicks November 25, 2005 Workplay B'ham., Al Source: Peluso cemc6/cards(Din 7, loc~5')>bm2p+ua-5>m-audio transit>wavelab 4.0(16@48) Editing: Wavelab(fades, resampling), Cdwave(tracking),flac frontend Culprit: Jon Buffington (stirinthesauce@hotmail.com) cuts in on 2nd song 1st set Notes: This was the same night as the NMAS/DBT shows at the Alabama Theater. Taylor called and asked if I could tape him as I was leaving the Alabama Theater. Rushed over but was unable to set up in time to catch the beginning. Threw rig up in a hurry with no time for level adjustments so there are some noticeable spots in the beginning where I am adjusting gain.

JoeFerguson Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 http://www.graycharles.com/ I honestly can't believe that I even have been watching AI, let alone actually enjoying one of the performers. I don't think Taylor will win, but he's still awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Kellie Pickler - The definition of playing the dumb blonde card to become rich. God bless her for manipulating the system (and the minds of 14-50 year old men everywhere). Hot, sexy, tight body, and a small amount of talent mixed with a fake innocent act = a platinum album in 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
