Greetings to all those who have joined the forum recently, and thanks especially to Rich for posting some really fascinating writing in the last few days. It's...
Hi Robbie, It's good to see you posting again. And thanks for taking a mild, non-judgmental attitude to my somewhat iconoclastic posting. Robbie had real...
I feel really lucky to have Rich¹s insights and reminiscences posted here! Something I question of what Rich said, though: would Basho have been better off...
It's great to make Glenn's acquaintance again. I waited until I could hear a couple of his more recent guitar albums, and as I told him, I was really happy to...
I forgot that I had wanted to add in my last post a comment about some of the great fusions in world music that have been occurring in the last 20 years. The...
my apologies for so much pontification. I've been listening again to "Eagle Sails the Blue Diamond Water", and have been shocked back into a state of awe......
I hope this isn't inappropriate, as I ask the question with the utmost respect, but I am curious as to the circumstances of Basho's death. There is minimal...
Hi, I've been on the list for a long time but never posted anything. Its been great to read all the activity on it lately. I'm a musician, though not a guitar...
The information I have on Basho¹s death I got from Janet Smith, who was a Berkeley neighbor and a friend of Robbie¹s. (Janet was also a performer, issued one...
The brief discussion of Robbie's death brought back up a memory from when I first met him, in 1968. I had heard his early Takoma albums before, but it wasn't...
Hiya, the messages about this shrine mystery are still here, numbers 16 and 17 on this forum. For me, the matter seems to have been quite conclusively cleared...
Dear All, the Christmas break is over, there have been so many things to get done, some of them have been done some, but none of them have properly finished....
What a lot of tasty stuff you serve up, Robbie, between your post and the files!! Thank you. I've probably already expressed my need to distance myself from...
No need to apologise for sounding bitchy at all - for those of us who know Basho through his records, our received sense of the man, and everything around him,...
At last, Indian II seems to be available on itunes for $8.91, even though it was 'released' 6 dec. 2006. There's no information about when it was recorded, but...
I really appreciate Robbie Dawson's comments and thoughts. You have been careful, considerate and deep in the issues as you examine them. Although being...
I am a total neophyte to iTunes. If one buys something there, can you get it downloaded as an MP3 to make a CD? When I went to Apple's iTunes site, I only...
aah yes, I'm no wizz either, know just enough to get by usually. Here's what you need to do- * download the itunes music player onto your computer, windows or...
Hi folks, First of all – I'm amazed to see that a forum dedicated to Robbie Basho actually exists and, having now stumbled upon it, would like to make a few...
Welcome Robin! I am also writing from Britain, though perhaps a slightly less sleepy one compared to that of the 1960's! Still, a long way from Berkeley. It...
Welcome from California, too, Robin. As Robbie points out, it's fascinating to hear of people gradually becoming aware of Robbie, of his music slowly filtering...
Hi folks, This is the first of the cassettes I mentioned in my previous posting and is a two-hour broadcast on German BFBS radio from November 23, 1980 on a...
hi Robin, well, this is fantastic stuff you are speaking of. I'm sure I am not alone in hoping you might be able to make a copy of said cassette; I would...

Hello again, In my first posting I mentioned a series of cassettes, these are the other two and are: - Live in Bonn, Germany, November 24, 1980 - Live in...
Robin, thanks for your kind offer. I think I share with you some misgivings about even the remote possibility of losing a rather unique cassette tape....
