<p>Hey Folks!</p><p>Merry Christmas! I hope everyone has a GREAT holiday season and the best life has to offer in the coming year.</p><p>I wasn't real happy with the vocal on my newest song so I redid it, along with tweaking the drum track a bit. It's a little closer to being the way I want it now, if you'd like to take a listen:</p><p>Mixed Up Me</p><p>Hope you enjoy it, and again, have a GREAT holiday season and a healthy happy New Year!</p><p>Bobby</p>

Either that or he has the same problem Mike (NAV) Foster has - a blind spot for the Caps Lock key. There again, maybe they have a point and that the BIGGER your name is, the more you get noticed. Answers on a signed banknote please. Not that Dazed (or NAV for that matter) need to get any more noticed. Dazed, in part-ic-u-lar, should need no introduction (at least to those on Mixposure, and Soundclick time for you to catch up) because he is primarily the man responsible for the resurrection and re-energising of the Mixposure name. Goes back to what I was saying in an earlier review of 333maxwell, the commitment here isn't just to the music (their own or anyone else's) it's towards <span style="font-style: italic;">building a community</span> and that combination always gets top marks with me. A man to be prized and praised to the skies.<br /><br />Now, let me sharpen me knives and get down to the music...<br /><br />Dazed-Rocker (and **** the caps!) is in fact a five man collaboration, something Dazed seems to do a lot (Ed: I know, another musical ****. Doncha just love 'em). The initial music, guitars and production was by Gary Hart, Dazed supplied the vocal and lyrics, Phil Robertson pounded the crap out of his drumkit and Geoff Taye hammers the point home on bass. THEN it was mixed and mastered by Kent Clemmons and the result is something that could easily go to 11. If you ever wanted to touch the real spirit of classic rock, bend your ears around this bad boy and crank it up. Have to say when I first started listening to this I was struck again about the difference between American classic rock and the Euro/UK variety, and the difficulties in getting the point across in either direction.<br /><br />The more I listened though, the more the accent wore off and the music won out. With a great vocal performance, Dazed shows that he does recognise where this music came from because I was hearing all kinds of English influences from Black Sabbath to the Who. It pays, then, to give this rock some time to settle in, I'm still noticing things and I've worn the crap out of it as well as being bombarded by it whenever I happen to tune into Mix Radio. There again, I am a consummate rock animal to whom low volume is anathma; play it loud and play it proud. These guys certainly should be.<br /><br />MUST HAVE hard classic rock.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Steve Gilmore</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><a class="postlink" href="http://rebelriffs.blogspot.com/">SG Reviews - The Blog</a></span></div><div class="postbody"><span style="font-style: italic;"> </span></div><div class="postbody"><span style="font-style: italic;"> </span></div><div class="postbody"><span style="font-style: italic;">Awesome Review Steve...Thanks for taking the time to do so!</span></div><div class="postbody"><span style="font-style: italic;">Rock on!!</span></div><div class="postbody"><span style="font-style: italic;"> </span></div><div class="postbody"><span style="font-style: italic;">DAZED - ROCKER</span></div>

<p><span style="font-size: small;">I am hoping to have the results for the contest today or tommorrow. I am waiting for judging results from a few people. The race is tight right now but as I look at it, regardless of who wins the guitar, you guys are all winners! Great job to everyone who participated in this event!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Last night in the chat room I was asking if anyone was missing the old feature we had on the artist pages which showed all songs reviews receives and written. I was not sure if people liked that feature or not and I was surprised that most wanted it back. So I am in the process of adding them back in. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">I had time this morning to add in the reviews received thanks to my dog waking me up at 4:30am. The page is not done and there are some corrections I have to make but it works. It is just not as functional as I want it to be yet. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">For those of you who have not seen this, it comes in handy in a few different ways. I use it so I can go back and review the artists that are reviewing me!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Have a great day all!!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Dazed<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></p>
<p>I thought this was pretty cool so I thought i would post it.</p><p><em>It's one of the most famous chapters in Beatles lore: A three-year-old Julian Lennon shows his daddy a drawing of his classmate, Lucy O'Donnell. Julian describes his preschool masterpiece as "Lucy in the sky with diamonds." <br /><br />The rest is rock history. <br /><br />The Beatles had a psychedelic hit, Julian got dumped by John, and Lucy died earlier this year from lupus. Julian Lennon's single — his first new music in more than ten years — brings the story full circle. <br /><br />He says that his recent writing and recording have helped him forgive his absentee dad while he's been able to publicly pay his respects to his old childhood friend. <br /><br />And the single's damn good to boot. <br /><br />Proceeds benefit lupus research. A full album from Lennon arrives next year.</em></p><p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="560" height="340" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eIO5Qebk3dI&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="340" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eIO5Qebk3dI&hl=en_US&fs=1&" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
