Eddie Cochran was only 21 years old when he died in an auto
accident while on tour in England on April 17th 1960. In his
brief but illustrious career Eddie recorded some of the most
influential early rock and roll, tunes like, Twenty Flight
Rock, C'mon Everybody, Too Much Monkey Business, and Something
Else, but Eddie's Summertime Blues was a monster hit.

One of my favorite "student anecdotes" involves a young
lady who dated World War I to around 5 Million BC on a test
because "it was, like, the first one, right?!" I hope she got
an A for effort! Anyhow, as wars recede their meanings change
with each succeeding generation.

Once, I was teaching a writing workshop and we were doing a
character exercise. It's one that starts, "he/she was the kind
of a person who..." and then fill in the blank. One of my
favorite answers ever to that was one a guy wrote that read:
"He was the kind of a person who wished he was the kind of a
person who liked to walk on the beach."

One of the 36,000 or so members at my other site Guitar for
Beginners and Beyond recently pointed me to a Gary Moore
YouTube video of him playing 'Still got the Blues for You'.
What a great player and what a great tune. I started fiddling
around with the chord progression in my office on the nylon
and my girlfriend asked if I was playing Lionel Richie's
'Hello'. A bit later on a friend dropped around and asked if
it was Santana's 'Europa'.

REVISIT (in case you missed this last month), CHECK IT
OUT!!! This past week I was stumbled upon by the one and
only THAYRONE-X. Who is he? Well, since that day I have
been tuning in nightly to the coolest Internet Radio show on
earth - The Bone Conduction Music Show - it's a white
hot mega blast of wig singeing Rock & Roll, hip shakin'
Soul music, and industrial strength Rhythm & Blues. I
could go on and on about it, but the best thing to do is just
tune-in for yourself. What ever happened to RADIO like
this!!??

Last month we took a look at the do's and don'ts of
preparing your band for the recording studio. But before we
press the record button let's talk about preparing the vocals.
Recording vocals for me personally is always hit or miss. Some
days you sing great and some days you feeling like a first day
reject for American Idol. You want to try to be consistent and
prepared so I've got my own routine for practicing my vocals
so that when the day comes I'll be ready to go!
