Title: Re: Happy birthday to Van Dyke Parks! Post by: KittyKat on January 03, 2015, 06:31:56 PM Hope he had a good one. It would be nice if he reconciled with Brian. Van tweeted a few days ago he hasn't seen him in years.

Title: Re: Happy birthday to Van Dyke Parks! Post by: rn57 on January 04, 2015, 02:50:44 PM Happy belated birthday! I get the feeling VDP, with his affection for all things Caribbean, is plotting a way to head on down to Havana....

Post by: Lee Marshall on January 04, 2015, 03:31:12 PM Looks like that famous studio musician John Paul Jones also celebrated on the 3rd. Didn't he also play bass in a failrly well-known Rock band there for awhile? Took John Entwistles' place with some post Yardbirds outfit tossed together in order to fullfill some contractual obligations. :hat
Title: Re: Happy birthday to Van Dyke Parks! Post by: MyDrKnowsItKeepsMeCalm on January 04, 2015, 05:35:46 PM Happy belated birthday, Van! Funny to see this just now, as today I pulled Song Cycle out for the first time in ages and was enjoying it.
Title: Re: Happy birthday to Van Dyke Parks! Post by: RangeRoverA1 on March 06, 2015, 09:41:25 PM A bit late. Birthday, Van Dyke. Your lyrics to "Cabinessence" are absolute best in music history, in this fan's view. Hope the CA pianistic performance isn't last, apply some creme to hands & all's good.
