6th: The Mailbag:
Questions, Comments, Requests, Predictions & Asides
JBW: The first time I ever heard of Cosby’s ‘Tetragammaton’ Label was several years ago while on a quest to find the self-entitled 1969 album by Sweet Thursday. They were a super-group of sorts, the line-up included Nick y Hopkins, Jon Mark & Allun Davies. At first listen, their 11-minute epic track Gilbert Street, sounds hauntingly like a ‘Space Truckin’ rip-off – the only problem with that theory is the song preceded Deep Purple’s by 3 years.
JBW: 42Fish, I’ll mention this week’s and last week’s requests again because I can’t second any of them. If anyone else wants a 6@6 poll for any of 42fish’s growing pile of requests: Neil Diamond, Dion (And The Belmonts), De La Soul, Dr. Dre, The Drifters/Ben E King, The Coasters, Ruth Brown or Laverne Baker please second them in this thread.
Prediction: I forsee all 3 of this week’s polls wilting away very quickly - with very few (if any) responses. The closest we’ve got to such obsure acts as Paul Butterfield & Willie Dixon was when we took someone’s requests for a Cab Calloway & Bonzo Dog Band poll. Three blues artists in one week - who knows for sure. If I see more than a total of 6 votes between all 3 threads I’ll be quite surprised. Whether the upcoming ‘Jazz Week’ fares any better will remain to be seen.

8th: This Week’s Other 2 Polls
I can’t provide a link to them because the featured poll and results get posted first. Access it one of 3 ways: (1)Click the links on my signature. (2)Access it through the Café Society page. (3)Bog down the server and do a search on the Headliner Paul Butterfield Blues Band or the Willie Dixon Supplemental 6@6 poll. Please Note: Each & every week, the featured poll includes the tallies from the previous week’s polls as well as a doper vote tally. The weekly headliner poll includes a list of the each artist we’ve polled and the top 6 vote-getting tracks. The supplemental poll will includes hyper-links to all the closed 6@6 polls.
Lastly: Top 6@6 Poll Posting Guidelines
All you have to do is list your six favorite tracks from the artist in its’ corresponding thread. If you’d like to add your own liner notes or opinions, please go right ahead – I, for one, love reading them. If you specify a live version, it will be noted, but tallied with the studio version. Cover versions (performed by the artist we’re polling) are acceptable, as are duets and off-shoot projects. Segues: Certain tracks were written to be segued (connected to) an adjoining song from an album. They obviously count as one track. There are countless examples: Everything from the Abbey Road Medley to many Zappa tracks. Please try to be as accurate as possible when naming your favorite tracks.
Without further ado: Bo Diddley Featured 6@6 Poll…
