CLEVELAND COLLEGE GALS DOFF TOPS FOR ROCK PROF'S WOODSTOCK EXAM!
Not yet. I've just always wanted to type that headline.
But CHAZ WROTE
A ROCK OPERA! Literally. It not only is a rock opera,
like "Tommy," but
it even has actual ROCKS prominently featured in it.
This rock opera happened rather suddenly. New songs
had been kicking
around in Chaz's head and last week they merged with
old songs he had
written. He started recording them in his home studio
and MORE songs
came out.
I don't know when I've seen my pal Chaz so happy. We
went to the
station last Thursday night for the show and he had
obviously been on
one of those creative tears that only come along every
once in a while,
where for some reason all your skills collide with a
good mood, or
maybe a bad mood, and something really cool happens.
It is a gas watching this happen even if it's happening
to somebody
else. It can even be contagious.
He had been playing the rough mixes of these songs on
his show and
explaining the story, which is sort of a "Major
Tom Can You Hear Me"
thing with a spaceman hero and an interplanetary cast.
He had JUST
written and recorded a new song for it called "God
Must Be A Spaceman"
mere hours before the show.
When Lonesome Cowboy Dave and the rest of us were there
for the
yabbering and jabbering, kids-in-the-sandbox part of
his show, he
suddenly sprang this new song on us and directed us
to RANT to it, on
command, song unheard.
The rock opera is not "Bob" oriented but this
song sure ended that way.
I just posted it to a.b.s., along with another bit of
business about
God and Pain from later in the show.
