The numbers: #3 Nirvana 56% ; #8 John Mellencamp 32%; Los Lobos 12%. On Monday we’ll launch the third phase of the Tournament of Rock – Legends, as our contest to name the greatest...

From Private Elvis , a collection of sleazy photos of G.I. era Elvis on leave in Paris having fun, long out of print.... From Pic mag, May, '56, a digest size sleaze mag...

John Lee Hooker performing Chicken And Gravy at the Montreal Jazz Festival, 1980. Look who's backing him up :) Been stormy and I've been enjoying it. Tillamook Head (about an hour north of me just south of Seaside) had gusts of 80 mph (as did Lincoln City which is about an hour south of me) but I only got up to an occasional gust of 58 or so. Not as much rain as I thought -- total rainfall to date...
