Re: Nigel Kennedy news
Jaz Coleman is a classical-type composer and it looks like he's doing
orchestral arrangements for The Doors like Michael Kamen did for Roger
Daltrey, Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton, and more recently, Metallica. Was
Coleman involved in McCartney's STANDING STONE?
Another Kennedy/Who connection, Nigel Kennedy appeared on the British Rock
Symphony cd, though not on the same tracks as RD. I was very impressed by
the track he and Clapton cut, though I suspect it was Clapton who made it so
outstanding.
