Title: 50th anniversary - Blondie & Ricky Post by: bsten on June 12, 2011, 02:55:22 PM If the BB are gonna do 50th anniversary concerts, I hope Blondie & Ricky join them - after all they were full-fledged members and some of the best BB songs/albums come from that period. :)
BTW, suggested listening - "Between us" by Blondie from 2006 - a really nice album. Listen here: http://www.blondiechaplin.com And why not Glen Campbell? :) /B Title: Re: 50th anniversary - Blondie & Ricky Post by: Jim V. on June 12, 2011, 03:09:18 PM Well, first of Glen was never a full fledged Beach Boy, but maybe (just maybe), he could be one, of verrrrry few guests.
I myself on the other hand, would love if they included Blondie and Ricky, but I just doubt it. Maybe they get them on stage for "Sail On, Sailor" but that's probably about it. I'd say it is probably nearly set that The Beach Boys for the 50th anniversary are Brian, Mike, Al, and Bruce, with obvious respect shown to the departed Carl and Dennis. And I do think David Marks should be given some credit too for playing on a nice handful of songs that nearly everybody knows, but who knows with BRI. I'd say it'd probably be even more of a mess if The Byrds ever try to do something. It's obvious they'd probably do the same thing I'm expecting for The Beach Boys and just have "The Byrds" be McGuinn, Crosby, and Hillman, although other living members include Gene Parsons and John York.

I'm talking about the big hits. I know he played on what, at least the first 3 albums.

Just suppose Fairport Convention ever tried to get every surviving member on stage. Don't think there's a stage big enough. Saw about 3,546 of them on stage at Nostell Priory in 1982 (and Fairport weren't even billed as playing) and it was a bit like the Bonzo Dog's "And Introducing…" song/sketch!

I don't think you can get McGuinn in the same room as 'the Cros' nevermind the same stage.
