Forget everyone else... this kid is da H-bomb!

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10202265095096917&set=vb.1476873404&type=2&theater Punch that into yer browzer, folks. This punk's got it all happening and puts all us old goats to shame. Free as a bird unlike Kenny Davis Leichtling, trapped in his madness.

Kenny Davis Leicthling

We've covered Kenny before. Look at his Facebook page if one can stand it. This "stand up guy" posted a series of "What about Bob?" on Craigslist strictly to ridicule and defame publically one of the best bassists I and many others have ever heard. Then again, Kenny Boy, Mr. Parades and Roses of 30 years ago doesn't understand the role of sideman and has no clue what makes a great bass player a great bass player. Liecthling is himself a million notes of antiquated nothingness, sounding totally disjointed because he relies on old mental ciruits to play his 10 hotlicks. Let's not forget his lust for opiates. If only he could be a sideman first rather than the star who has no clue what the other instruments are supposed to do. 10 demerits for Mr. Leicthling.

What passes for quality

Many might disagree. Sinead O'Conner in the recently media created "feud" between Miley Cyrus and her, mentioned the adverse impact Simon Cowell and his ilk have had on music, labels, locals -- every aspect. It's as if whatever aberration comes forth out of his talentless brain is blindly agreed to by the TV and commercial media hypnotized masses. What has been created is an imaginary reality where if one out-bellows one's competition on a Miss America contest, one stands to get some money and have corporations dictate your every move from there on out. What are you at that point? Worse is what has the consumer become because of the corporate obliteration of all that's come before during the past 100 years or so of recorded art? Talk to some kid today about Kenny Burrell. Blank stare. Walk into a music store and start playing a melody in time -- the "musicians" stand around avoiding you like you're a disease. The inclusiveness of music is eliminated at the consumer level. You don't have the spirit of "Dancing in the Streets" because a bunch of TV characters on some big hootered lip synching T&A act has a complete entourage to do all that for you. It's par to going to the drive-thru at McDonald's asking for a different version of a Big Mac. Can't have it. It's now one way for the new Americans, mostly immigrants who think our crumbling standard of living and all it's new improved corporate crap is Heaven on Earth. And it's all financed through a bank and you own nothing of it all. Same with music. The corporations have sterilized art for you so you don't have to think. Be like TV people. Out bellow, out jiggle the competition and you, too, can make it on The Voice ... good luck on that..

Nashville Today -- what is it?

Nashville today. Still the place for budding singers and musicians to flock to make their mark on the international stage. To get there is another story. It is run by elitists who no longer represent the spirit of America -- rather it's a political mouthpiece for the military industrial complex and wealthy corporatists who've stripped the consumer of all real power. The new message - worship low wages, love the military who aren't fighting anyway on your behalf and are the first to be discarded. One only salutes them for giving up their life for crazy people in power. Is there honor for fighting for the rights of corporations to infliltrate other nations to erect more Walmarts and McDonald's? What's in it for our fighting men and women? We know this government is completely disfunctional. Not a one is fighting for this land. It's all owned by banks. Nashville is just a cash cow for some. Slick, image driven and devoid of the realities of real people's lives and are in great degree responsible for the apathy Americans have sunk to. The American spirit was about fighting for the common man. Now Nashville's message is "drink your beer, finance a truck, wear silly hats indoors, behave without dignity and lay down and take it." One man's opinion. Anonymous Bosch

Kudos to Picker of the Month!

Jerry Rosner of Yuma, Arizona, gets our Guitar Picker Pick of the Month at the Picker's Post. Smooth as Tennessee whiskey and a cool breeze of mountain air, Rosner flows his riffs with great thought and performs them with utter certainty. He's down home, coming from the heart and we feel this natural is worth our attention because there's nothing stiff nor forced in his traditional good ol' chickin' pickin' guitar.

Kenny Davis

Here's a guy who seemed to have it made. Now he's a drug addicted cripple in Florida's Gulf coast doing absolutely nothing musically to any degree but putting all his attentions on a very astute, competent, well respected, well documented electric bass player who can definitely pick a song or two with his genuine deep down fatback style of the get down. Our investigation shows Kenny's been in a downward slide for a good decade at most, had police involvement, felony arrests, convictions, loss of family and child, severe health problems at 59 years old and is generally hated in his own area or now a complete unknown posting very vicious public posts about the other. We at the post discovered no evidence to support Mr. Davis claim the other is in any way shape or form "mediocre." We always ask "compared to whom or what?" Never found any answer from Kenny Boy. He doesn't really know, that's why and instead goes off into actual rambling rants of demonic madness to avoid all questions aimed at his own understanding of that he claims to be some authority on. The life of a Nashville star can be tragic -- here today; gone tomorrow. In this case the once somewhat talented Mr. Davis seems to be on his way out. God speed, Mr. Davis. We're with you on that all the way not for your music, but because of the monster you've become.
