K. McClure dazzled us with the following: : My search tonight was fruitless so I though I'd ask you all... I know : the version of "Blow Wind Blow" the band does is a cover but who is it : originally by (or who else has done it)? I've never actually heard Blow Wind Blow from the guys, but the only other BWB I know is by Tom Waits on his Frank's Wild Years album (the music from the musical he wrote; the musical premiered at the Steppenwolf Theater in Chi-town in the mid-80's, but the song sounds like it's much older, since the show is about Sinatra {or a Sinatra-type}). Hope this helps, jeff. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Rodney's Five: Bed and Breakfast Down From Above Misplaced Love Set Fire La Complainte Du Phoque En Alaska Sad Today Bittersweet Well, that's seven, actually, but that is my current list. Actually, this is a great point to mention something that occured to me at the last show I saw (King of Prussia). I have seen Moxy Fruvous 'only' about 15 times, but every time that I have seen them do a show, including two record store 'in-store' mini concerts, I have heard a song that I haven't heard live before- I always get a new song. I am sure that this trend will not continue indefinitely, but this has been fantastic for me so far. Just one year ago, my list contained The Gulf War Song, The Ballad of Marion Fruvous, Liaka, Poor Mary Lane, and The Lazy Boy. It is impresive to me that some of these songs are at least five years old, and they are still rotated into their sets regularly. I have known some bands to completely forsake their older stuff to promote the release of current stuff or for other reasons. I am particularly pleased, because the very first Fruvous show I attended, someone spent the entire night shouting requests from the audience, and most of the time the band pretended not to hear, but one quiet moment a cry of The Lazy Boy came out, and Jian said that there are some songs that they just don't do anymore, and that The Lazy Boy is one of them. (Of course, this was before I learned how much to believe anything that band members say.) And while Mike then did to an impropmtu 15 second version of Lazy Boy, it did nothing to help the dissapointment I felt at thinking that I learned of this band too late to hear such a fine piece of music live. (I know, you are all thinking "but this is Lazy Boy! It's not like their live version is any different from their album version! It's not their deepest or even funniest song!" I just think that it is a really fun song, and the vocal arrangements and harmonies are just wonderful. So there.) Anyhow, I can name each of the performances I have seen by the 'new' song I heard there. So, if I attend seven more shows, maybe I can get this list down. - --Rodney (Oops!
