RS: Even though you’re primarily known as a guitar player in The Shadows, you’re also a great singer-songwriter. I was glad the Final Tour CD and DVD features some great vocal tracks like “Lady Of The Morning” and one of my favorite Shads songs, “Don’t Make My Baby Blue.”

HM: Yeah, do you know that song, Robert? I don’t know if you’re aware...do you remember Frankie Laine, the great American pop singer of the ‘50s? Actually, someone played it to Bruce in early ‘64 or something. It could have been ‘64 / ‘65. And he came over and said, ‘what do you think of this song?’ And it was Frankie Laine doing a version of this song, “Don’t Make My Baby Blue.” And we thought, ‘that’s good.’ So we had a crack at recording it. We recorded it in, I think it was in Portugal, we were sort of doing some recordings there and that was one of the tracks that we recorded. The interesting thing about it was, we decided to release it as a single and it was a hit. It was a top 5 hit. But, when it was in the charts I had to go to Abbey Road studios for something, where we recorded of course for EMI and The Beatles were doing something and I was talking to George. And he said, ‘Oh, I love the new record.’ This was “Don’t Make My Baby Blue.” He said, ‘You know what? Look, you guys have always been good singers. What you should do is, honestly forget the instrumentals. Concentrate on vocals.’ Sadly, we didn’t listen to him. (laughter) We continued, after that with more instrumentals, which of course, were beginning to get less and less appealing in the broad sense to the commercial market, you know, the fashion was going. We were still tickling the charts but we weren’t getting the big hits anymore. I think he was right. We should have probably used “Don’t Make My Baby Blue” as a launching pad to go off into a sort of vocal / instrumental direction. But there you go, it’s hindsight Robert, isn’t it?

The @FBI and its Newark field office are reportedly "spooked" and actively investigating a "sophisticated theft" of 15 agricultural spraying drones from a location in New Jersey.

Experts and retired agents have expressed deep concern, noting that such drones could potentially be used to disperse biological or chemical agents.

This theft is being investigated alongside ongoing reports of unexplained drone activity near sensitive New Jersey sites, such as the Picatinny Arsenal and energy infrastructure.

Anyone with information regarding the stolen drones or suspicious activity is urged by the FBI Newark field office to contact them at 1-800-CALL-FBI or submit a tip through https://t.co/k9rB9oRXxn.

With my cat Bozgoh having mouth cancer, I just remembered the beautiful song Seth Goodman wrote for his 20 year old cat for the 2016 album by The Grand Undoing.

One of the casualties of the covid era was the loss of Angel Air Records. Owner Peter Purnell is a great man and had much vision. In my 2005 interview with Andy Davis we were talking about Stackridge having no CDs out! Kudos Pete!

from Yahoo Scout: Mike Pinder was indeed one of the last people to interact with Jimi Hendrix before his death. On the night of September 17, 1970, Pinder, a member of The Moody Blues, was reportedly at a party where Hendrix was present.

[Robert S Silverstein @MusicWebRSS]

During one of several phone conversations with my musical mentor Mike Pinder, I remember he told me that Jimi Hendrix, the night before Jimi died, joined Pinder at a party in London. I miss Mike a lot and I always think about every day.
