Linda and I were at McGonigel's Mucky Duck Pub in Houston Friday nite to hear Eliza Gilkyson, a little known singer/songwriter whose simple folksy/country style we like. Eliza has a new CD out "Paradise Road", and one song in particular helps me to understand what a "Man of God" our president really is. I'm glad somebody is commemorating his righteous leadership in song.

We always hear that music can`t change the world, and it`s only just a shallow entertainment, the sound "scenery" of Potemkin village, the part of the industry. Probably today it`s not that far from the truth...but when we remember `60s and `70s music and their influence... Anyway, like to hear that someone sings of important and real, emotional things that matters something..."God save the queen The fascist regime They made you a moron Potential H-bomb..."

One disappointing thing I noticed about Eliza Gilkyson's latest CD, Paradise Hotel, versus the other one I own, Lost and Found, is that Paradise Hotel is recorded at a much higher level. I always find I prefer uncompressed music recorded at a lower level to all the others stuff that's compressed into the top 5dB capacitity of a CD so it will sound loud on a car radio. I prefer the music on Lost and Found as well as the recording technique. I'm not familiar with Austin City Limits. Living in Houston about the only time I hear music in Austin is when my sons' band plays in a 6th street venue. (6th street is where the small live music venues are in Austin). The bands you hear on 6th street typically have lots of creativity and peforming talent, but will never make the big time because they refust to write and perform formulaic music.
