I first heard Green Green and Greenback Dollar was the Kingston Trio's covers.

The original authors and performers are:

The New Christy Minstrel's for Green Green

And Hoyt Axton for Greenback Dollar.

After rather many years with having never rated a song with 5 stars, I've decided I have needlessly condensed my scale and will begin rating with fours more freely, and most of the present 4s will become 5s. If a song ever reaches whatever my previous ridiculous standards must have been for a 5, I'll blog about it or something. Fair?

i was in the middle of Billy Bragg's "Which Side Are You On" when I stopped it to not be rude entering Encuentro 5 for the Stop the Wars meeting.

And they will be promoting their Saturday, October 25, Halloween party against war at, among other places, the performances by Billy Bragg in Somerville.

But I actually already knew that... from the amazing built-in plugin for Songbird that lets me know when any musicians in my MP3 collection are playing nearby.

Jerimiah Was a Bull Frog (Joy to the World)

Some Nat King Cole Trio numbers:

40% of site visitors (or downloaders I think) paid an average of $6.

The main thing is that they went around the middleman, not just for music sales (CD or digital distributors) but in gathering a database of their fans that they can use in booking concerts, further promotion and sales, etc.

It will definitely work for Radiohead, and other high-profile bands.

And this is the best bet for artists and bands who won't get into the music industry any other way.

Will it work for all the groups in between?

I want it to, but I'm not sure we're there yet.
