    From Jason Gross@21:1/5 to All on Mon Oct 1 19:29:06 2018
    Greetings,

    In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <http://www.perfectsoundforever.com>, you'll find (among other things):


    TERRY BROOKS
    Pysch guitar returns- interview by Jack Gold-Molina and Jerry Kranitz
    "North Carolina’s Archers of Loaf were one of the most heralded indie rock bands of the ‘90’s. Though they never had a crossover radio/MTV hit like Pavement, the legions of fans and newer bands influenced by their sound is too long to list. Though
    the band have been inactive as a recording unit since 1999, though they have had reunion tours of the US/Canada in 2011-2 and 2015, and things are moving progressively forward to change their inactive status otherwise."

    THE BYRDS
    Bio mourning their dead by David Chirko
    "Not shy per se, an unabashed attitude pervaded Byrds drummer Michael Clarke's eschewing of interviews. Humorous, innocent, apolitical, sensitive and generous (but careless financially), he was a lothario who could cachinnate at himself, even though he
    experienced episodes of sorrow. "



    ARETHA FRANKLIN
    Remembering the Queen of Soul by Jason Gross and Robin Cook
    "To honor her work, we'd like to direct you also to some wonderful tributes to her to her elsewhere online. Along with some good bio sum-up's, there's other ways to honor the Queen here: how her music became famous samples, her greatest album covers, her
    best deep cuts, her civil rights legacy and some historic moments on film/video, especially featuring 'that hat' from the Obama inauguration."


    We're always looking for good writers and/or ideas so let us know if you have anything to share.

    See you online,
    Jason
