I do like how everyone who got the Frank Black / Beefheart connection got a different one than what I was using. Though my connection makes the Beefheart / Robyn Hitchcock connection a little easier.
So, I guess we'll take a break from these for a while.
I knew the Breeders had to be in there somewhere!
One of the big lessons from the Rock Cycle series is that the music industry has its Kevin Bacons, the highly-connected individuals who work with a wide variety of acts. I had no idea that Feist had worked with so many people, for example. The “associated acts” section of the Wikipedia articles for some of these artists could almost be a page in itself.
yeah, Emmylou Harris has dozens of them. Conner Oberst, too – i started with him.
I disappeared.
odd.
There I is. That said, I’m irritated at myself for not getting The Breeders.
