I have an issue with Fripp's choice of vocalists, particularly in King Crimson, whose big box The Road to Red I just acquired. Wetton is way too high in most of the mixes, and his delivery upstages the shows so often, all blustery and show-offy. Judy Dyble is a refreshing exception to my rule.

@James Douglas. WOW! Hadn't thought of ANNIE HASLAM in a very long time. Saw her with RENAISSANCE in a stunning show at Cornell University in the fall of 1977.

@Frank Zaatar. No, were they a local band on the make? I was in an immersive Ph.D. program and had very little time to check out the scene in Ithaca, unfortunately. Whatever happened to that band?

Saw Renaissance in '77 or '78 at LA's Greek Theater. Opening act was Jean-Luc Ponty.

RENAISSANCE and PONTY on a double bill! Lucky you! I was fortunate enough to see JEAN-LUC a couple of times, once at a cool seaside-adjacent club called the GOLDEN BEAR in Huntington Beach, CA.

I was just checking Ponty's touring schedule, where I saw a string of Golden Bear shows. That would have been spectacular! He also played at Berkeley's Greek Theater.

Frank Zaatar:

↳ Gerry from Miami @1:41
The Zobo Funn Band were a very innovative Jazz/rock band who had a cult following in Ithaca in the 70s (I guess today they would be unfairly be called a "jam band"). They featured Jeremy Werbel, a very prolific songwriter and vocalist, and lead guitarist David Torn, who is now one of the finest jazz guitarists. They put out one poorly recorded studio album but they were one of the best live bands I've ever seen.

Found a review of a Zobo Funn Band show in Variety, late '75. Happy to forward it to you, Frank, but I'll need an email address. If you want it, email me at deanrowan@duck.com.

Thanks, Dean. Wow, CBGB--I guess that's when they did feature Country, Bluegrass, and Blues.

Great episode, Bob, thank you. Enjoyed the Judy Dibyle hour. The JRM piece was interesting but a bit painful to me. Morton extending himself to try to please this pushy young government researcher. All good. Again, many thanks.
