Nerdlets

One-sentence impressions of songs from music nerds. Most recent nerdlets:

"Ambulance Blues" is more than just 'pissing in the wind' (love singing that!). The 'liar' in the song is Richard Nixon.

"Motion Pictures" is about the ending of Neil's relationship with his second wife.

"Revolution Blues" is a track that creeped out David Crosby . . .& he played on it!

"See The Sky About To Rain" is is a song Neil had on him from the late sixties.

"Walk On" is a great 'FU' to all the critics who claimed he was done.

"My God" is Orchestrated ballad about Alice's faith in God which became more public later.

"I Never Wrote Those Songs" is Ballad with piano and sax, very sophisticated track, one of my favs from this album.

"(No More) Love At Your Convenience" is Alice's 2nd foray into disco, Alice's least favorite track he ever recorded, danceable.

"Ubangi Stomp" is Great rockabilly cover performed very faithful to the original, unusual Alice track.

New feature: Writers are notified when someone leaves a comment on a page they wrote

Posted by Jeremy on March 1, 2009

You’ll notice at the top of each page, when logged in, there are a few stats listed. One of these is the number of new comments that have been left on pages you wrote that you haven’t seen. If you go to your member page you will see the list of them, so you can click and read them.

Everyone is encouraged to reply when at all possible to any comments left anywhere — discussion and participation really make the site more enjoyable and educational. Thanks to everyone who has already been joining in.

NOTE: Writers may see several old comments indicated as new. That’s because this feature is new, so you’ll have to visit each page on which a comment exists to mark it “read”.

This feature isn’t actually finalized yet, technically, so let’s call it Beta and hopefully it will be tweaked and streamlined within the next 24 hours or so.
