Cicconi v Berlusconi

Burlisconni_madonna

Although we doubt we'll be playing her music anytime soon on the show, Madonna Cicconi deserves a mention this week.

Madonna has weighed into the Italian political fray by launching a stinging attack on Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, saying the scandal-bound premier is "unsuited to govern Italy". MORE HERE

Berlusconi's cronies have responded with crude and frivilous insults MORE HERE

This on the heels of Ms Cicconi's fantastic response to critics who took her to task for her negative opinion of a certain flower. MORE HERE

Usually her antics are annoying but we offer kudos for these latest outbursts.

Nicky Hopkins 24 February 1944 – 6 September 1994

The late Nicky Hopkins is the ultimate unsung session hero. His piano, organ, and other types of keyboard contributions can be heard on hit songs by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, and many others. Hopkins started with Screaming Lord Sutch's Savages, which also included Jimmy Page (another session hero and founder of Led Zeppelin). He played with the Cyril Davies All Stars, one of the first British rhythm & blues bands (Nicky plays piano on the Country Line Special album). In 1965, he played piano on the Who's debut album and started playing keyboards in sessions for the top British bands including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Kinks, and on solo albums by John Lennon, Jeff Beck, and others. He played with the Stones on their amazing concert film from 1968, Rock and Roll Circus. Nicky eventually moved to San Francisco and helped define the S.F. sound, playing on Jefferson Airplane and Steve Miller Band albums, and even briefly joined Quicksilver Messenger Service.

Jerry Jeff in San Francisco Tonight!

Ray Wiley Hubbard, Jerry Jeff Walker, Lost Gonzo Band
1974 Willie Nelson's 2nd Annual 4th Of July Picnic. Bryan/College Station, TX

Lots of musicians talk about the road; Jerry Jeff really is the kid who rode his thumb out of his hometown in upstate New York to such exotic destinations as Key West (where he introduced another young musician named Jimmy Buffett to the pleasures of island life)…He really did sing for pennies on New Orleans streetcorners, alongside Mr. Bojangles…He really did strap his guitar on the back of a motorcycle and go busking across Canada…And he really did sing in the smoky cafes and folk clubs of Greenwich Village, following in the footsteps of Bob Dylan and Ramblin' Jack Elliott.
