I'm liking the sound of that future book.

Hey, don't forget to order your copy today. I did!

This isn't exactly press, but I didn't know where else to put it. There's an excellent American Masters on PBS airing now. It's called Troubadours and is based on Carole King/James Taylor in the early times of singer/songwriters. Lot of Danny Kortchmar, Leland Sklar, Russ Kunkel, Jackson Browne, David Crosby and many others hangin' at the Troub. Steve Martin recalls the time that Glenn was starting out in Longbranch and wanted badly to become a star. There's a couple of pics of hte guys, and a bit of film. Martin has a funny rendition of The Eagles/Eagles name.
Good stuff.....

Thanks, Deb. There is a thread about this documentary in the Singing For The Sake Of The Song section. I have ordered my copy of the DVD from Amazon and I can't WAIT to receive it. I couldn't watch it last night as I don't have PBS... I'm interested to know what those who watched it thought, though!

[Troubadour]

I've ordered my copy, too. Did anyone in the US watch it on PBS last night? If so, please tell us what you thought!

I love this bit in the trailer. Look how cute JT and Danny are! Wouldn't it be nice if we had more Eagles pics like this?



I wish we had an emoticon for warm fuzzies!

I found a link for it on PBS, but ............. it wasn't available in my region.

I immediately turned on PBS when I saw this only to see lame children's programming. BOOOOOO

[whitcap]

I just watched it on the PBS website. It's great!

[Prettymaid]

Just got mine in the mail a bit ago! Going to watch it with Hubby later!

[Troubadour]

Oh, I'd love to be able to watch it with you tonight. Enjoy, and please let me know what you think!
