Ray Davies Wants Kinks To Reunite

This could be the year of groups reuniting.  First we had Buffalo Springfield getting together for a tour, The Zombies are rumored as well as McGuinn & the Byrds. It should be a great year!
With both Davies brothers seemingly on board, a reunion could be imminent

By all logic The Kinks should be on the verge of a reunion. "I’m seeing Dave next week," Ray Davies tells Rolling Stone in a new interview. "I hear that Dave is saying stuff in the press like, 'I’ll do it, but Ray doesn’t want to do it.' This is me saying, 'Ray will do it if Dave does it.'"

Bob Dylan Performs In China

He doesn't show signs of slowing down  despite the rumors. I've always thought it very cool that people in foreign countries can enjoy our music too.
Bob Dylan played his first ever gig in China last night (April 6).

He was able to perform in the country’s capital city Beijing after agreeing to play a set that had been pre-approved by Chinese authorities.

The pre-approved setlist was agreed after an attempt by promoters to bring the folk legend to China failed in 2010. Permission was denied then by the country’s Culture Ministry, which must approve every concert that takes place in China.

The approval meant that Dylan could not play any material that the authorities deemed politically sensitive, such as the song ‘The Times They Are A-Changin’.

Gladys Horton Of Marvelettes Dies [Video]

If I were to say to you "What was Motown's  first number one hit", what would you guess? Maybe a song by Smokey Robinson? How about a song by the Supremes, Mary Wells, or the Four Tops? All great guesses, but wrong.

Buffalo Springfield Fall Tour

It's my opinion Buffalo Springfield is more remembered for what it's members did AFTER they broke up than when they were together. Example: Stephen Stills (Crosby Stills & Nash), Rich Foray (Poco), Neil Young (duhh), Jim Felder (Blood Sweat & Tears), and Jim Messina (Loggins & Messina).
