Annapolis ShowI've just returned from CP and the Mission Express at the Rams Head Tavern in Annapolis. What an amazing show. Chuck expressed how great it was to have more than 45 minutes to stretch out the music after playing as the opening act for a number of shows. It was our good fortune to hear the result. They played for just less than two hours and it was obvious they were having a good time. I was especially pleased to hear so many songs from the new album: Solid Gold, Pin a Rose on Me, West Memphis Moon, Just to See You Smile, Smallest Man in the World, You Did, and a blistering Automatic Blues that followed Summertime Thing near the end of the show. All the new tunes were elongated and filled out in the live setting - I wish I had a sounboard... The band is tight - well, except for Chuck who always seems like he's on the verge of falling over while slinging the guitar and making it ring like an instrument of passion. The room was only 2/3 full, which meant that lots of folks still don't know about Chuck. For $18.50 I saw a show that packed more punch and had more soul than all of the $150-$200 arena shows combined. My good fortune! As usual, I will be giving CP albums as Christmas presents - got to share the music... |

Chuck RulesI think Chuck's new album is very, very good. I appreciate the way he has introduced strings and choruses into his songs, but I feel a little sad that these replace Stephanie's wonderful organ and vocal work; in my opinion she's one of the major reasons "The Hurting Business" and "No Other Love" were such a success. I see Chuck will be in St. Paul October 2nd--I'll be there with lots of friends!! I wish you all success Chuck--you deserve it |

what about it? |
|

Yeah, I noticed that. For some reason, when I added new photos the other day, it changed the Banana photo. Will have to change that back later today. It's some kind of "ghost in the machine" thing that happens when adding new photos (Henning, ideas on how to correct this?) Like we said, it's a work in progress, or just checking to see who's paying attention. Peace, Dan |

Henning, the photo's NOT of Chuck... unless the photo is 1982 and he's had some reconstructive surgery since then. Thanks Dan. (We'll see about peace after the election... I hope.) |

I didn't see a button for "New Posting", so I hit "reply" from the latest post. I think Chuck's new album is very, very good.

tune of an eveningthanks Chuck, Steph and the rest of the boys for a great show. It was fab to see you all for a few hours...although we only see you once a year or so, it's almost as if the time connects from one visit to the next. Cosmic Man! You guys will always be a part of our lives. Peace and safe travels. Love Mick and Andrea. |
