Actually, it was about The Grass Roots, where he did the conducting! Interesting history about that group. No wonder they started Folk-Rock, but turned Horn-Pop-Rock, sort of, overnight!!! Record songs, then find people to fill the parts of members of the group!

Looked at Billy Joel biography on TV last night. Interesting. Though they said nothing about his drummer, Liberty, who I felt helped Billy along!

Looked at 60th Anniversary of Atlantic Records (DVD). Interesting, though I felt Ahmet Ertegün seemed a bit too big headed. But NICE to see they mentioned my mentor, sort of, Tom Dowd!! Saw him in action, too!

That's all I have to report for now! :-)

Best,
John
