Lyrics
Feeling so tired, can’t understand it
Just had a fortnight’s sleep
I’m feeling so tired, I’m so distracted
Ain’t touched a thing all week
I’m feeling drunk, juiced up and sloppy
Ain’t touched a drink all night
I’m feeling hungry, can’t see the reason
Just ate a horse meat pie
Yeah when you call my name
I salivate like a Pavlov dog
Yeah when you lay me out
My heart is beating louder than a big bass drum, alright
Yeah, you got to mix it child
You got to fix it must be love
It’s a bitch, yeah
You got to mix it child
You got to fix it but love
It’s a bitch, alright
Sometimes I’m sexy, move like a stud
Like kicking the stall all night
Sometimes I’m so shy, got to be worked on
Don’t have no bark or bite, alright
Yeah when you call my name
I salivate like a Pavlov dog
Yeah when you lay me out
My heart is bumpin’ louder than a big bass drum, alright
I said hey, yeah I feel alright now
Got to be a
Hey, I feel alright now
Hey hey hey
Hey hey yeah
Hey hey hey
Hey hey yeah
Hey hey hey
Hey hey yeah
Hey hey hey
Hey hey yeah
Hey hey hey

This video for ‘Caught In The Undertow’ was filmed at Muriwai beach in Auckland, New Zealand and at a helicopter crash testing facility in a 3.6M deep pool. The band trained for cold exposure, to hold their breath for minutes at a time and learned to scuba dive to pull this shoot off. Weight belts pulled them down to the bottom while a scuba diver held out a regulator for them to breathe. Once at the bottom, the band would take in a few deep breaths, the diver would swim away and the camera started to roll…
Ooh, I love this. Black Smoke Trigger is the band of my guitar teacher and they are the most dedicated guys in the world. Their musical chops are the best of the best and their new EP just out called ‘Set It Off’ has made it onto the Billboard charts! Get your copies, eh!

“Ever wake up with the blues so bad you feel like rolling back over in your bed and going back to sleep? My mother and I were evicted from the home I grew up in first thing on Christmas morning a few years back, shortly after a romantic breakup. The words are true. I made out of this blues through prayer. I wrote this song on the side of my bed. ” – Chris Rodrigues
I wake up with the blues now mama
I just roll back in my bed
I wake up with the blues now mama
I just roll back in my bed
cause I don’t wanna think about
all them troubles rolling round my head
I’m feeling mean feeling mean
I ain’t got one nice thing to say
I’m feeling mean feeling mean
I ain’t got one nice thing to say
I’m asking God for forgiveness
I better get down on my knees and pray
well my rider she done left me
took my world for a spin
well my rider she done left me
took my world for a spin
if I fall back down in love
the same things bound to happen again
some say its a feeling
I think its a dog gone curse
some say its a feeling
I think its a dog gone curse
I wake up with the blues now mama
it gets back then it gets worse
I wake up with the blues now mama
I just roll back in my bed
I wake up with the blues now mama
I just roll back in my bed
cause I don’t wanna think about
all them troubles rolling round my head
cause I don’t wanna think about
all them troubles rolling round my head
cause I don’t wanna think about
all them troubles rolling round my head

Summary:
Recorded after the monumentally successful Red Octopus album release, but prior to 1976’s Spitfire album, this Jefferson Starship concert captures the band performing a diverse set before a hometown audience. With singer Marty Balin back in the fold, the group again contained the three primary vocalists from the Jefferson Airplane, now supported by vocalist, keyboardist, part-time bassist, and ex-Quicksilver Messenger Service member David Frieberg; the young guitar prodigy Craig Chaquico; and the superb rhythm section of bassist/pianist Pete Sears and drummer Johnny Barbata. The group was riding high on the multi-platinum Red Octopus album and was arguably at a new peak of popularity.
This set is not only represented by material from the early Jefferson Starship albums and a couple of Jefferson Airplane classics, but interestingly features live performances of material from Grace Slick’s first solo album plus two of the best tracks Marty Balin recorded with his post-Jefferson Airplane project, Bodacious D F.
The recording begins in progress, with the group wrapping up Vic Smith’s “Drivin’ Me Crazy,” the most infectious track from the obscure Bodacious D F album. This sweeping, heart-breaking song about longing for lost love serves as a perfect vehicle for Balin’s romantically emotive vocals. An extended version of the Jerry Gallup/Craig Chaquico composition, “That’s For Sure” follows, clocking in at nearly twice the length of the studio recording featured on the 1974 Jefferson Starship album, Dragonfly. With barrelhouse piano support from Sears, Grace Slick next takes over with a very bawdy take on “Better Lying Down,” a track from her first solo album, Manhole.
In a rare instance of drummer Johnny Barbata fronting the band, they next deliver “Big City,” the song he co-wrote with ex-Canned Heat guitarist Joel Scott Hill and original Flying Burrito Brothers bassist Chris Etheridge. Here Barbata handles lead vocals on a song soon to be recorded for the group’s next album, Spitfire. Returning to Dragonfly material, David Frieberg next fronts the band on “Come To Life,” a song containing words by the Grateful Dead’s lyricist extraordinaire, Robert Hunter.
A second taste of the rare Bodacious D F material is next with “The Witcher.” Beginning introspectively, this becomes an explosive R&B workout featuring Balin’s lustfully unhinged vocals. Dipping back even further, the group next tackles one of Kantner’s early sci-fi classics, “Have You Seen The Saucers.” Sandwiched in the middle of this Jefferson Airplane number is an extended and pummeling bass solo courtesy of Pete Sears. This leads up to a raucous take of “White Rabbit,” one of Grace Slick’s signature songs. The recording concludes with the first taste of Red Octopus material. Craig Chaquico’s “Sweeter Than Honey” clearly shows the band heading in a straightforward rock direction, which would capture the attention of a new legion of fans, while alienating older fans that preferred more thought provoking lyrics and the more experimental sound of the Airplane. This leads into a drum solo by Johnny Barbata, prior to the tape stock running out.
With all three Airplane vocalists again on board and a wealth of diverse material in the group’s touring repertoire, the Jefferson Starship was arguably nearing its peak around this time. With personnel as well as musical changes again in store as the 1970s wore on, the group would rarely be this engaging again and this recording, although not without it’s flaws, represents the Jefferson Starship nearing the end of their golden era.

Heino – Sierra Madre – Live optreden tijdens hèt Schlagerfestival in de Rodahal op 9 april 2012 in Kerkrade. Dit festival vindt elk jaar plaats op 2e Paasdag. Voor meer informatie kijk op www.schlagerfestivalkerkrade.nl
Den Beweis dafür, dass an dem Sprichwort „Totgesagte leben länger“ was Wahres dran ist, hat Heino im vergangenen Jahr mehr als eindeutig geliefert. Plötzlich ging alles ganz schnell! Heino überrascht mit neuem Repertoire. Das Album „Mit freundlichen Grüßen“ verkauft sich mehr als 250.000 Mal. Heino stürmte mit knapp 75 Jahren die deutschen Albumcharts und wird zum Downloadkönig des Jahres gekürt.
Jetzt setzt Heino dem ganzen noch die Krone auf! So kommt es, dass er jetzt seine eigenen volkstümlichen Hits, die seine Fans bei nahezu jedem Konzert von ihm einfordern, covert. Doch einfach nur covern wäre langweilig. Mit verschiedenen Produzententeams aus der Rock und Metalszene hat er völlig neue Rockversionen aus seinen alten Schlagern gezaubert! Und so wird – passend zur Musik – aus dem alt bekannten Schlager „Blau blüht der Enzian“ der dem Genre entsprechende Albumtitel „Schwarz blüht der Enzian“.
SCHWARZ BLÜHT DER ENZIAN

Alte Kameraden Marsch. Lyrics:
Freunde, heut’ wird’s eine lange Nacht,
weil wir alte Kameraden seh’n.
Freunde, heut’ wird einer draufgemacht,
weil wir wieder beieinandersteh’n.
Heute kommen sie von nah und fern,
uns’re alten Kameraden her.
Hoch soll’n sie leben beim Saft der Reben,
darauf freuen wir uns sehr.
Singt und lacht durch die ganze Nacht,
denn wir haben lang uns nicht geseh’n.
Singt und lacht, bis der Tag erwacht,
weil wir immer zueinandersteh’n.
Freud und Leid – alles wird geteilt,
und wir sind doch für einander da.
Denn wir sind Freunde, gute alte Freunde.
Freunde, eines ist doch klar:
Wahre Freundschaft gibt’s nicht oft auf dieser Welt,
wahre Freundschaft ist das einzige, was zählt.
Wahre Freundschaft, echte Freundschaft
ist doch viel mehr wert als Gut und Geld.
Kameraden, hoch die Tassen bis zum Morgenrot.
Wir leben nur so kurze Zeit und sind so lange tot.
Freunde, singt und lacht und bringt das alte Herz in Schwung,
denn wer immer fröhlich ist, der bleibt jung.
Ach, wie schön war einst die Zeit,
als wir jung war’n und zum Glück bereit.
Ach, so vieles ist gescheh’n,
drum seid froh, daß wir uns wiederseh’n.
Lebe heut’, schau nicht zurück,
denn nur heute findest du dein Glück.
Darum hebt das Glas voll Wein
und laßt uns alte Kameraden sein!
Hast du Sorgen, schick sie fort,
denn noch immer gilt das Wort:
schwarz und dunkel ist die Nacht,
immer kurz bevor der Tag erwacht.
Leid und Kummer, das vergeht,
weil die Welt sich weiter dreht,
darum hebt das Glas voll Wein
und laßt uns alte Kameraden sein!

I wandered far from hurt but found no place to go
Like a river in the desert, like a flower in the snow
I heard a sound from somewhere, unexplained, unreconciled
Not of earth, not of air, something more, something wild
Something longing, something lost, something wounded, something sad
Like a fool who paid the cost and lost all that she had
I heard the sound grow strange, and strong, so very strong
And it began to shift and change into a song
CHORUS:
Some were made to sigh and cry but some will look up higher
Instead of always asking why they’ll set the world on fire
Sometimes we only lose to win to find where we belong
This pain in me, this hurt will be – will be my song
I wandered far to nowhere, I left my world behind
Just so I could go where days are not unkind
But the storm tried to follow me, stronger than before
The night tried to swallow me and the wind it waged a war
Colder, colder, blows this gale, colder grows the night
But more than trails are known to fail and more than wolves can bite
More than horses break their halters, more than birds take wing
If a voice wavers or falters sometimes the heart must sing
CHORUS:
Some were made to sigh and cry but some will look up higher
Instead of always asking why they’ll set the world on fire
Sometimes we only lose to win to find where we belong
This cold, this wind, this storm has been – has been my song
Sometimes we only lose to win
To find where we belong
I had to learn to sing again
With thunder in my song

Quote of the Decade
“Anybody not willing to accept the results of an election is a danger to democracy.”
A nin was lucky enough to see the original machine that had a base plate of prefabulated aluminite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two main spurving bearings were in a direct line with the pentametric fan? The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-delta type placed in panendermic semi-bovoid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the “up” end of the grammeters.

The following column by Michael Fitzgerald first appeared in The Stockton Record on Feb. 4, 1996, and presents the account of Marine veteran Robert Ross, then 71, who claimed to have served on Saipan during the critical summer 1944 invasion, at that time the most important conflict of the Pacific war. Someone sent it to […]
Today present the conclusion of Paul Briand Jr.’s “Requiem for Amelia,” perhaps the best early synopsis of the accounts presented by the original Saipan and Marshall Islands witnesses, based on the interviews done by Fred Goerner and the “Operation Earhart” duo of Air Force officers Joe Gervais and Robert Dinger on Guam and Saipan in 1960. […]
Today we take another look at the pioneering work of author Paul L. Briand Jr., whose findings revealed in his 1960 book, Daughter of the Sky, sparked the true modern search for Amelia Earhart. Written in 1966, as far as I know, “Requiem for Amelia” is Briand’s last published piece; it’s an excellent summary of everything […]

Kennedy claimed Amelia Earhart told him […]
Finally, “Expedition Amelia” is in our rear-views, and today we present Part II of “The Jaluit Report,” Bill Prymak’s account of his November 1990 trip to Jaluit Atoll in the Marshall Islands with Joe Gervais, infamous as the creator of the mendacious Amelia Earhart-as-Irene Bolam myth. “The Jaluit Report” appeared in the May 1991 Amelia Earhart Society […]
With the Oct. 20 airing of the over-hyped and unnecessary National Geographic Channel’s two-hour special, “Expedition Amelia,” another Earhart media disinformation operation comes to a welcome close. (Boldface emphasis mine throughout.) The latest in a long line of bogus Earhart searches was born this past summer, with National Geographic’s July 23 announcement, “Robert Ballard found the […]

Today we return to Bill Prymak’s Amelia Earhart Society Newsletters for another look at true Earhart research history. “The Jaluit Report” is Prymak’s account of his November 1990 trip to Jaluit Atoll in the Marshall Islands with his longtime friend, the strange, unreliable researcher Joe Gervais, best known as the progenitor of the notorious Amelia Earhart-as-Irene […]
In Chapter XIV of Amelia Earhart: The Truth at Last, “The Care and Nurture of a Sacred Cow,” I discuss several compelling aspects of the U.S. government’s longstanding refusal to disclose the truth that’s been hiding in plain sight in the Earhart matter for over 82 years, including a 1992 letter from Highland, Ind., attorney Michael […]
Longtime reader Ken McGhee livened up an uneventful day recently when he informed me about a Sept. 9 Coast to Coast AM story, “Earhart Mural in Malaysia Gets Panned” that repeated a Sept. 5 Yahoo!

It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination.”

← This sequence is cropped (and looped) from the last 10 frames of the video captured on Sol 6 by a camera on the lander for NASA’s Mars Pathfinder rover. Not enough pixels, but still, mighty impressive. This evidence was discovered -way- back in the day by Tim Beech, Life On Mars.
Well, it does seem to be moving, doesn’t it? Camera artifact? Maybe! Let’s FIND OUT!
