Samizdat is Czech for self-published. Back in the bad old days of communism, many books were banned because the "state" feared they may give people ideas that didn't fit in with the status quo. In Czechoslovakia, this caused people to type forbidden books out by hand, then mimeograph them so people could read them. That is how my husband read "1984", for example. Someone translated...

Rock journalism is people who can't write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read. Frank Zappa (quoted in the Chicago Tribune, Jan. 18, 1978) I'd extend that to nearly all writing about music of any kind-it's nearly always abysmal.

At left: Mr Cyril is now 7 months old! Like everyone else in the USA, I am presently bustling, rustling, hustling... and trying to dig out from under mounds of email (as well as real-life junk mail), Mr Daisy's comics and kitty detritus, to prepare for the holiday week coming up. How is everything with you? I have decided to run for County Council, as I mentioned here . I figure it can't hurt. I know...

Warren Haynes has never hid his appreciation of the music of Deep Purple, so he must’ve been as happy as a kid in a candy store last night when he sat-in with the English rockers at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam. According to a report from our friends at Here Comes The Flood, Haynes added his unique brand of sizzling guitar to the Black Night encore . Haynes had formed a friendship with...

It's got to be love, hasn't it? Why else would someone bother to transcribe 200 of {{Frank Zappa = 11600}}'s tunes? For what other reason would someone dedicate himself for over 15 years to presenting his arrangements of Zappa's music in the setting of a 17-piece jazz big band, and at a loss to boot...
