What I wanna know is: How do you nominate a disco act like Chic while there are hundreds of other artists far more noteworthy in the history of modern music?...
How true! I don't think I know any REM songs, and really don't want to. About all I know about REM is that the lead singer, Michael Stipe has a big mouth for...
How true David, how true. But isn't Nigel Rodgers part of Chic? Maybe the connection is through him?? Isn't he some great record producer? I am solely...
I'm with you 100% on this topic D.M. WTFO? I have tried really hard to understand the intent behind this organization, and the inclusion of voters in the...
It's interesting that we all got fired up about this one in particular. From Wikipedia: CHIC - is an American disco/funk band that was formed in 1976 by...
Okay, one last input (from wikipedia) on this topic and then I'm outta here. Some feel the induction process is controlled by a few individuals, including...
I like the WIKIPEDIA description. Thanks, Mike. Ya know, I was never a Sex Pistols fan until last year! LOL! That's probably the classiest thing they've...
Ya know, I actually own a t-shirt that reads: "DISCO STILL SUCKS", that I won at the local state fair back in 1980! I guess the, "STILL", meant that it's a...
That was an awesome interview! At least it puts my memory to rest about if Kevin & Gary actually did get together for a few minutes to talk about writing a...

Enjoyed reading the interview. Thanks for sending that link, Kathy. It was good to read Bruce's perspective on everything that has happened inside REO...
Yeah, I got a kick out of it. Somebody needed to hook Bruce Hall up to a lie detector while he was giving that interview. What a crock. I could hardly believe...
This interview made me wonder when BRUCE HALL was going to get healthy and stop taking drugs. Obviously his memory AND his brain are fried to a crisp....
Actually, Gary says Kevin never called him before or after "Behind the Music" aired. Kevin claimed several times that he was going to call Gary, but he never...
I wonder if Bruce was referring to the time after the "Building The Bridge" tour when they attempted to include Gary as part of releasing an "Anthology" album...
I remember thinking back when Kevin's comment came out that it's pretty crappy of him to base his whole opinion of Gary on a TV appearance without sitting down...
Scott: Those negotiations actually took place before "Building the Bridge" was released. Epic Records approached the band about two projects: The first was to...
Did they really attempt to contact Gary to write some songs back then? I think that maybe they were at a loss since BTB was such a suck ass album, when they...

Kathy, Thanks for the update and adding clarity to this issue. I'm a huge fan, as we all are. However, I, too, have seen the band with Dave. He's a great...
Thanks for that info, Kathy. The second project you mentioned sounds like it could have been something really special. --David R. Morris From: REO FANS ...
Amen to that. Too bad it was scrapped. I wonder by who??? .....dawn ... like it could have been something really special. --David R. Morris From: REO...
OOOOO, I think I know the answer to that one!!!!!LOL-Lisa ... like it could have been something really special. --David R. Morris From: REO FANS Subject: [Gary...
Too bad the retrospective/box set was rejected. I've heard some Hi Infidelity outtakes. While they weren't too different from the released versions, it was...
Well just so everyone knows, I'm looking for a video live performance of "Golden Country." I've seen that song performed in concert twice in person, so it...
Maybe this new gear will improve Amato's chops.....!!! **************************** T-shirt Turns Air Guitar Into Music CANBERRA, Australia - Scientists...
