about to form a new band called Schmaltz. the first album will be
called "Heavy Lard" and should be out soon. here the cover of the album:  -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival. Ceterum censeo principiis obsta |

Nice, I think the voice of Phil, Kenny and Greg go well together, I heard Peter Hammill is providing the lyrics, so we have all the best man of prog working together creating the ultimate masterpiece, the aftermath of prog if you will. ------------- I'm always almost unlucky _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Id5ZcnjXSZaSMFMC Id5LM2q2jfqz3YxT |

It was pretty obvious - after all, Kenny G wouldn't lower himself to perform with Phil Collins... -------------

Keith Emerson: "I had been wanting to play with Kenny ever since we did our Ohio gig in May 1971, when he came backstage with his sax and asked us if he might play some for us; he had travelled all the way from Seattle for that. We had just done a fantastic show and were in a good mood, so we said yes, and it was amazing what this boy (he must have been no more than 15 back then) could do on his sax. Greg and I were all for including him in the band, but Carl was firmly opposed to it. Yet I was so very impressed by him that I decided to do the solo in the "Aquatarkus" passage of Tarkus in the register of a soprano sax". Phil Collins: " 'No Jacket Required' was actually inspired a lot by Kenny's music; I tried to express with my voice what he did with his sax on that album, but fear I did not quite succeed". -------------  BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

Really ? I heard that FISH was supposed to be on lead vocals with Joe Satriani on lead guitar !I guess the info is not yet perfect.

I like that comment a lot. I just did some research; ELP REALLY played an Ohio gig in May 1971, and Kenny G REALLY is from Seattle, so "Emerson" sounds perfectly believable here. well done, Friede  ; I wish I had thought of it------------- A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

The Zappa part is true, but you're missing a bit of detail about the new album. It is a collaboration between him, Elvis, and Tupac Shakur, and there will be a tour in support of the album, pending work visas from the afterlife. |

I live in the Seattle area, so please refrain from mentioning KennyG is from Seattle. I am under a psychiatrist's care and he says I should only think good thoughts
