youtube.com Scottie Pippen scores 29 points with 6 rebs, 6 assists, 3 steals and a block leading the Bulls to a 109-94 win over the Kings. Jordan added 28 in his duel with Mitch Richmond (who had 34 points), while Rodman pulled down 18 boards and also dished 6 asists. Half the 4th qtr was garbage time with the Chicago bench trying to score 110 so the fans in attendance could get free tacos. However, they came up short in a funny ending involving Kukoc.

Heres a question: what does Robert Nighthawk, Earl Hooker, Canned Heat and the Monkees have in common? The answer is pianist Ernest Lane whos played with them all in a long and varied music career. It would be some fifty years after playing on his first record that Lane cut 2004s The Blues Is Back!, his first full length record. Growing up in Clarksdale Lane had the right background for a bluesman; his father was a barrelhouse pianist, his boyhood friend was Ike Turner and Pinetop Perkins was a friend of the family who showed the youngster a thing or two. Ike fell in love with the piano when he peered in at The King Biscuit Boys, featuring boogie pianist Joe Willie Pinetop Perkins, rehearsing in the basement of his buddy Ernest Lanes house. As he recalled: Man, I never seen nobodys fingers move that fast on a piano, he said. I didnt even know what a piano was then, and I saw that dude, man. He was playing piano, and they was rehearsin at John Lanes house. Ernest Lane and I was the same age, and we was comin home from school and we heard this noise. And we went over there, and boy, these guys-this guy was playing piano so fast, man, I couldnt hardly see his fingers! And I said, Damn, man! I wanna do that! Lane said, Me too! Anyway, we started talkin to Pinetop, and he started teaching us different little boogie-woogie things. When he was just a teenager Lane hooked up with legendary slide guitarist Robert Nighthawk. Nighthawk eventually took him to Chicago where his solid …

Kottonmouth Kings werent held up by a bank robber, but they certainly encountered one! While enjoying a day off in Chicago, IL California based rip-hop hybrids the Kottonmouth Kings were woken by a bank robber fleeing the scene of the crime. The robber was passing by the Kottonmouth Kings tour bus parked outside the House of Blues, just the stolen funds he was carrying exploded with red bank dye covering the side of the bus and members of the Kottonmouth Kings crew. The band commented about the bizarre situation: I stepped off the bus and this huge pile of money and red smoke comes flying at me right when I opened the door, said Kottonmouth Kings stage manager The Taxman. I thought I was lucky and then all the sudden poof this cloud of red smoke came up and hit me, while some guy took off running because apparently he robbed a bank. This was our first day off after thirteen nights in a row so I was kinda out of it.

someone has come back to roost…lol :–) this is my tribute to an underrated Chicago Legend: Guitarist Frank Craig (like many of his peers played an axe strung for a right-hander, strapping it on upside down) and never really transcended his reputation as a trusty sideman instead of a leader — and that was just fine with Frank. But Frank stepped into the spotlight long enough to sing four fine tunes for Alligator’s Living Chicago Blues anthologies in 1978. Mr Craig was already conversant with the guitar when he moved to Chicago at age 14. Too young to play inside the Club Zanzibar (where Muddy Waters, Little Walter, and Howlin’ Wolf held fort), so Frank and his teenaged pals, guitarist Eddie King and bassist Willie Black, played outside this joint for tips instead. Left Hand Frank shared legitimate gigs with harpist Willie Cobbs, guitarist James Scott, Jr., Jimmy Dawkins, Junior Wells, Good Rockin’ Charles, Jimmy Rogers, and Hound Dog Taylor and this kept Frank increasingly active on the Chicago circuit from the mid-’50s to the late ’70s. Frank moved to Los Angeles not too long after the Alligator session, eventually hanging up his guitar altogether due to health problems.

My personal thanks to Alligator Records owner and producer: Bruce Iglauer. Bruce has always been a mentor/promoter of the BLUES and sees the …
