dragster Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Janis and great time buddy Arlo Guthrie.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 (edited) Arlo was just through here on his "solo reunion" tour. I passed on seeing him but he's always been very entertaining when I've seen him in the past (MerleFest, Furthur Festival). Not sure if you've checked out his daughter Sara Lee Guthrie but she's quite the chip off the old block.

Not sure if you've checked out his daugher Sara Lee Guthrie but she's quite the chip off the old block. No man, I didn't even remember Arlo had a daughter.....so that makes her Woody's granddaughter....he would have ben proud of her if he had been alive today!!! So the legacy continues........."one day they WILL all learn"......you know what I'm talkin' about man!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I first got turned onto Sarah due to her gigs with local artist Tift Merritt. Seems Sarah's husband Johnny Irion used to be in a band with Tift's boyfriend Zeke Hutchins called Queen Sarah Saturday. They've done lots of shows in the area together over the years.

It amazes me that so few people seem to be capable of looking this type of information up online via sites like AllMusic.com, Amazon or any of the many other sites that provide tracklists, especially when it's more than obvious that you have the abililty to do so right there at your fingertips.

lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I'm sorry that I didn't look it up. I hope you aren't inconvenienced. I will try to be a better person next time and look it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well J, speaking for myself, it all boils down to laziness. I own the damn thing, all i have to do is go down in the basement and get it...or I could just google it, like you mentioned...sorry. I guess I just assume that since this is the janis thread that most individuals must know what I'm referring to. Especially since it's not a boot or anything...officially released product. You're shaming me into getting up, Jahfin....gggrrrrr..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Well it seems that my newbie-ness to Janis has brought some rises out of people. I have some Janis screencaps if anyone wants them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelmon Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Just about ANYTHING can be looked up on the internet...so why even have discussions or ask ANY question ? Let's just all shut our traps....and not be inconvienced by these inquiries ! Open a new window/tab !!! Please, I don't like multitasking !

lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I have another screencap. She's so hard to screencap because she moves so much. Even when you pause it she's all blurry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelmon Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I'm going to try to capture some of her on my 'Music Scene' DVD from '69....It's VERY Rare footage....so....wish me luck ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelmon Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Have fun and good luck! I don't have a DVD reader on my desktop where I normally do screencaps....and it's XP..so it's easy to screensave....alt/prntscreen paste to paing cntrl/v but I dont know how to do it with Vista...which is on my lappy with the DVD reader...hmmmm... I need to find out why the same prompt doesn't work with vista OS.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I have no idea. I suck at figuring out computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleNecker Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I downloaded Pearl the other day. Hope I can get into it. I saw that it has "Me and Bobby McGee" and I've heard that a lot on the radio, my mom loves that song, and I enjoyed it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I love that song. Are you a Janis fan or new to her? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleNecker Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Well, I've only heard a bit of her music. So basically I'm new. I've had many opportunities while cruising blogs to grab the Big Brother and The Holding Co. albums with her, but I wasn't sure if Janis was right for me. But when I sneaked a listen of that song last night, I think I can get into her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 You'll love her she's great! She's one of my top favorites right after Zep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleNecker Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I remember something my mom told me that she heard from a DJ here in St. Louis say after a Janis song "You know, she was one of the nastiest, most drugged up women, but goddamn could she sing" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lzfan715 Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 I don't think she was nsaty. She was just outgoing, you could say. I can't say she didn't do drugs. I did hear that she had been clean for quite some time before her death though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
