I got a film of my dreams
But I'd lose them all
Burn em all
Go along without all of it
Give up the chances I see
If you'd take me up
Raise me up
Let me know the heart of it
Give me your sweet soul dream
I SO love this album. It still holds up.
Holy moly, how far does this thread go? Asking for a friend. π

12.10.2025 22:21 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0In 1988, I was living on the West Side bluffs of Saint Paul. That year, the speakers of the main stage for Riverfest were pointed that way. I stood in my back yard and listened to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Sounded like I was right there. I've found that show online and, yep, it really was that good.
12.10.2025 22:16 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Back in the day. I tagged along with my older sisters to an Osmonds concert. Bo was the opening act.
I was 9 years old. Saw the girls going crazy and thought, "Hmmm...I should get in on this!" Fast forward, I've been a musician for for 46 years.
Fun (?) fact: I saw Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods live in concert. In some ways, I'm still recovering.

04.10.2025 19:17 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Thank you for your post about the birthday of an accomplished artist. I didn't mean to say anything negative about Mr. Brooks.
03.10.2025 03:56 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0FWIW, it was my favorite part of the film. Avery was fascinating and I loved how he answered the questions while improvising at the piano. We heard from Avery Brooks, the person. Not the actor who played Sisqo. Shatner's befuddlement was the cherry on top. π
03.10.2025 03:46 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Again, in the interest of clarifying attribution--I NEVER said Mr. Brooks was "weird or worse". In my opinion (drawing upon observation and personal experience) I did not think Avery was "weird" in the interview segment. I surmised he had got his head up prior. I was not stereotyping.
03.10.2025 03:37 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Thank you (I think) for correctly assigning the quote. I was referring specifically to the interview Mr. Brooks did with William Shatner in (IIRC) The Captain's Chair. Watch it and let me know if you don't think that Avery is...very relaxed, shall we say.

But seriously, he's good in every movie he's made. Even if the movies weren't so good.
