Gosh. Blood'n'guts. Damnation.
Let's hope the b-sides compilation will come out soon. |

Spooner sure did a good job.
I take it that's you playing the harmonica on 'All Around The World'? Nice.
is this track an FB original?
I know there's a thread here somewhere that lists the songwriters but I can't seem to find it. |

One degree of separation from Frank to Neil! Kewel!
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics |

there was already a one degree connection - our own "echo park" aka eric potter, who sang on 'manitoba' and once played guitar w/ mr. neil young.

I never knew that Brian - both manitoba and Mr Young
that's mighty impressive but probably just another day in the life of an echo
or did he win a competition of some kind? |

"All Around the World" is also entitled "Needle In My Arm" and is a traditional song.
Glad you enjoyed my harmonica playing. Thank you.
best,

eric has explained to me the whole 'manitoba' incident, which was related to him running into stan ridgeway at a performance a few days before recording 'manitoba' and stan inviting he and his girlfriend down to sing. i have no idea how the neil young thing happened. eric is a real cool guy though, and i wish he'd post more.

me too, bet he has some stories to share. thanks for that anyway
hey Jon, yeah, i enjoy everything about the song, the words, the sounds, the lot. can't wait to hear the finished article
erm..Jon? bit cheeky this, and as just a humble fan you owe me nothing nor a favour, but if you could, like in passing conversation, could you please mention to Frank (charles) the fans liking and my yearning for an FB DVD that spans his career post pixie onwards
sorry, but the least I could do was ask, had to try. doubt i'll be catching up with him some time soon myself
have one of these too  for both my cheek and audacity |

The same website now mentions May, 9 as the release date!

Eric probably would post more but he's a busy guy. He has his own musical projects, his wife, and his work takes him all over.
Last I heard he was still working on sound for Spielberg's upcoming War of the Worlds remake, but I imagine he's got to be either completely snowed under right now or (and?) about wrapping up.

do you think an M.I.A thread will bring him back (bloody hell! there i go again with them smileys)
would love to converse a little with him, he seems to be leading a life i can only dream of, but bet he's worked damn hard for it.
from what i've heard about him, he's had some amazing 'never in my lifetime' experiences |

Is this the Offical Tracklist for "Honeycomb?"
