Re: SEMI-OT INTERVIEW WITH NELS CLINE AND G.E. STINSON

[Jim Goodin <jimgoodinmusic@gmail.com>]

Ted that's neat they are different worlds his Shadow time and now but that's really what's rich.  Before Windham Hill noticed them @80 they had done I think two other records that I recall on 'vinyl  (whas that!)'.  I saw them live @84 along with Michael [Hedges] in Memphis.

Anyhow this current stuff sounds like it's going to be really neat, this is a really funny interview at times very cas and lengthy.

That's pretty neat thread of folks you came to know in LA...

Jim,

Funny thing . . . I used to enjoy Shadowfax way back in the day . . . and was somewhat aware of their guitar player . . . some guy named Stinson (as I'd read in the squint print of the liner notes).

A decade or more later, when (through my friendship with Jeff Kaiser) I became acquainted with Nels, Vinny Golia, Stu Liebig, Woody Aplanalp, and a whole bunch of folks associated with a downtown L.A. "scene" surrounding the Alligator Lounge (including a G.E. Stinson), I hadn't made the connection that the two musicians were indeed the same guy.

Duh.

Actually, I found that out relatively recently.

I guess I'm just sort of slow.

The musics of the G.E. of now and of Shadowfax of the early '80s are verrrrrry different animals.

Ted this is neat thanks for passing on, I've been following GE ever since Shadowfax in the late 70's.  He's turned up with some neat things since, bet this will produce some amazing work with Nels...
