Paul Haines RIP

Excellent! Thanks for that!

Yes--thanks!

I love "Darn It!," play it all the time. Have seen G. Cartwright a few times too.

Sad loss.

Marcello, hang in there...I'm going thru some bad times myself these days...

Marcello, you maybe interested in this tribute on the Radio 3 website:

Tribute to Paul Haines, 1933-2003

yeah, i have to give it up to Haines
and i almost got to meet/ correspond him

he's the real Escalator over the Hill chronotransductor
and Bley has proved herself as a great Ron Geesin type hired arranger
fixer

part two of escalator is a bit naughty
if you pick up one of those six Sandanista like sides
at random

then you wake up in the India of "Kashmir"

sorry, maybe
chronostransducer

sorry, or

its worse when idols dont die, but faint... when they're still alive but all they put out keeps getting more and more boring and easy...

GEEEZ! tori, i loved you so much, but maybe its a healthy step for me to learn that noone is god-like! not even you!!!

sorry!

strange reason to revive this thread, but after reading through Emily Haines' (of Metric) bio for her new album, i came to realize that she is Paul's daughter

Funny, I went to high school in Fenelon Falls, Ontario, and Paul Haines was my French teacher. We never really had any idea of this man's accomplishments. When asked, he would tell us that he "helped write a song once for Linda Ronstadt." I have a tape he made for me called "Un Peu de Tout" It is my most prized possession from a man who had a profound effect on my outlook and life. Sartre, The Residents, the film Delicatessan...these were his curriculum for wild, crazy, hormone-overloaded teenagers. Paul Haines taught me to appreciate many different flavours of cinema, music, poems, sounds and many other things. Wow. What a man. I even went to high school with Emily and Avery. What a shock when i couldn't get tickets to a sold-out Metric concert in Montreal. Wow again.

That's amazing!
