On the 2nd title page of the 1928 'Neue Wiener Schachzeitung', <Heinrich Wolf> is listed among those who annotate games (also Akiva, btw). But that does not mean that he wrote a news item in the 1930 issue, for sure. |

I'm fine, thanks for asking! And you?
Thanks for posting this amazing live performance from Sir Elton. I really love "Your Song." One of the best love songs ever written in my opinion. "My gift is my song,
And this one's for you..."

"Just what you want to be,
You will be in the end..." |

| Oct-03-13 | | Karpova: From page 29 of the January 1926 'Neue Wiener Schachzeitung': <Für Dresden kommen als Teilnehmer vor allem in Frage: Dr. Aljechin - er holte sich kurz vor Weihnachten in Paris den Doktorhut - Nimzowitsch, Dr. Vidmar, Kmoch usw.> The first mention of <Dr. Aljechin> (the decisive middle part translated - he got/fetched shortly before christmas in Paris the doctoral cap -) |

A stunning find! Is there any more about this in the article, or just the line you quoted? I think you should write Edward Winter about this, no? Not to mention Dr. Fiala. |

| Oct-03-13 | | Travis Bickle: Hey Jess, here's another chess song sung by Jeff Lynne. ; P Showdown - ELO
http://youtu.be/UF5NUSu1qRg |

| Oct-03-13 | | Travis Bickle: Jess EMU sent. |

This was just a small item on the Dresden tournament. Winter knows it as he gave this as the first occurrence of <Dr. Aljechin> (we talked about it at the beginning of August already). So I'm sure that it is not a confirmation of Alekhine really receiving a doctorate. |

| | jessicafischerqueen: <tbon> thanks for that live ELO. Jeff certainly looks cool in the big shades eh? Good band. How did he end up being close friends with George? |
|
| Oct-04-13 | | Travis Bickle: Hi Jess! I really didn't know how George Harrison & Jeff Lynne became close friends so I looked it up. I knew ELO wanted to take up where The Beatles left off, but I didn't know Jeff met all 4 Beatles during the making of The White Album in '68. Here's a google link on Jeff Lynn's relationship with The Beatles. The Beatles were a major influence on Lynne. In 1968, while performing with the Idle Race, he met The Beatles during the making of The White Album. Years later he admitted, "To be in the same room as the four of them caused me not to sleep for, like, three days." The original aim of Electric Light Orchestra was to take up "where the Beatles had left off, and to present it on stage." Indeed, John Lennon had called them the "Sons of the Beatles".[1] Critics often compared Electric Light Orchestra to The Beatles and they were often criticised for "ripping off" the band. Lynne admitted that he "was very influenced by the Beatles’ sound of ’68 and ’69. That has obviously been a big influence on the way [he] looked at songwriting" and said that being compared with The Beatles was the "ultimate compliment".[2] With George Harrison[edit]
Lynne worked with Harrison very closely in the late 1980s. In 1987 he produced the Cloud Nine album, Harrison's first since 1982's Gone Troppo. Before the release of "This Is Love", the third and final single from Harrison's highly acclaimed album, the record company asked for a B side for the song. Deciding he needed help, Harrison gathered some of his musician friends, eventually resulting in the formation of the Traveling Wilburys. Lynne was a member of the supergroup along with Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison. Harrison and Lynne contributed to the writing of all Wilburys tracks including "Handle with Care", "Wilbury Twist" and "End of the Line". "Years later Lynne admitted, "To be in the same room as the four of them caused me not to sleep for, like, three days". ; P This song by ELO sounds like John Lennon to me.

| Oct-04-13 | | Travis Bickle: Here's another song that Jeff uses different Beatles song sounds mixed in. Mr Blue Sky - ELO
http://youtu.be/bjPqsDU0j2I |

| | jessicafischerqueen: <Travis> thanks for that great deep background information about the connection between Jeff and George. We also learn how the <Travelling Blueberries> got started! What a great anecdote. ELO- "Can't Get it Out of my Head"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZvZ... Especially in the first few bars he sounds like <John> no doubt. There are also some "Beatles-like" strings later in the song. Maybe ELO is good *because* Jeff was so heavily influenced by the Beatles. He's a really wonderful singer/songwriter if you ask me. Nobody did, of course.

"Mr. Blue Sky"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjPq... There are sounds from "Day in the Life" mixed in here? |
|
Oct-04-13
| | jessicafischerqueen: <Johnny Cash> may be even cooler than <Johnny Alekhine> The "Man in Black" talks a bit about how drugs almost killed him. Then Niel Young comes on to sing "Needle and the Damage Done," and more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpCw... |

There are sounds from "Day in the Life" mixed in here?> Jess every time I listen to Mr Blue Sky I hear many Beatles references 1 of which is Penny Lane, I Am The Walrus and many others that are almost subliminal. ; P |
