10 Apr 08 - 10:18 PM (#2312608) Subject: Jesse Winchester podcast From: C. Ham Mike Regenstreif's new podcast is various artists singing the songs of Jesse Winchester. Included artists are: Kate & Anna McGarrigle, Emmylou Harris, Ted Hawkins, The Bluegrass Gospel Project, Harvey Reid & Joyce Anderson, Chris Smither, Joan Baez, and, of course, Mr. Winchester himself. I'll be in Montreal on Saturday for Jesse Winchester's concert. They're always a big treat. I remember the early-1970s when Montreal venues like the Golem were about the only places he played.

Frankly, it shouldn't be up to a guy from Toronto to supply you with the info on shows in your own city. |

13 Apr 08 - 11:36 AM (#2314264) Subject: RE: Jesse Winchester podcast From: GUEST,Bob Ryszkiewicz The Montreal Concert was great too. Met Jesse in the rain as he was going in. You know you're getting old when you can't remember which DECADE you last spoke to someone. I sang "Let it go" to him as I approached. "I was born in Memphis twenty-five years ago..." He squinted at me, laughed, and said, "Well, a bit longer..." LOL. We talked a bit, shook hands, and he dashed off for the sound check. What can I say about the concert? He did many of his Classics: Yankee Lady, Biloxi, Talk Memphis...You have to wonder in amazement at the consistency of the performance, one brilliantly constructed song after another. Piano-like, tasteful accompaniment on guitar. And friends, you know this guy can sing. Fun rapport with the audience. A laid back, memorable show. Then I sat back in amazement and considered WHAT HE LEFT OUT...MORE great songs he COULD have done from his body of work...But there just wasn't time. I got a picture after the show. Another with Maurice Podbrey... Jesse has loosened up over the years. I told him that. It made for a relaxed wonderful evening... bob |

Mike Regenstreif was at a nearby table and after you came up and said something to him, somebody at his table asked who that was, and I overheard him say, "Bob Ryskiewicz." Jesse was as as fantastic as ever. And having Mike introduce him was an added touch of beautiful nostalgia. Like being back at the Golem in the 70's. |

Go to the roundhouse grandma , he'll never corner you there... One more Fu Manchu/Zapata moustache and Maurice and I could tour...That is, if it's really me writing this. And then, who would be the stunt double...? bob (or is it Maurice?) |

'Band On The Wall' in Manchester - anyone other Mudcatters there? His funky chimp dance to an acappella 'Rhumba Man' stays in the mind!!!! Loved the man since his first recordings. A totally sensitive and perceptive writer. Thank goodness he's back to gigging 'cos he's had the odd layoff over the years. He responds to emails too. |
