KOL's first two albums, are rock and roll at it's best. Something really special. It upsets me all the teeny boppers who love them today would never have loved them if they hadn't changed direction. Real shame!
Oldies, odd stuff, and remakes.....

only read news today, he died last month.
RIP
Texas singer-songwriter Calvin Russell, an ex-convict and one-time protege of Townes Van Zandt who became a country music star in Europe, died of cancer April 3 in Garfield, Texas. He was 62.
Born Calvert Russell Kosler in Austin, he was a troubled teenager who did jail terms for forgery and possession of marijuana. After his release from jail in the late '60s, he became a member of the Austin singer-songwriter community and was taken under the wing of the legendary Van Zandt.
By the late '80s, Russell had developed a catalog of songs and began hunting for a deal. At an Austin birthday party, he passed a demo tape, intended for songwriter-producer Charlie Sexton, to Patrick Mathe, owner of the roots-based French label New Rose Records.
Mathe almost immediately signed Russell, and the musician's 1990 debut album "A Crack in Time" became an instant European hit. Russell would go on to release 15 albums -- almost all of them continental successes -- and attained a reputation as an authentic outlaw in the Merle Haggard mold.
Though he toured very successfully overseas, the hard-living Russell never lost his rep as a real-life miscreant: As late as 1995, he was convicted in Texas for cocaine possession.

A discussion of the origins of Islamic Law.
"Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss the origins and early development of Islamic law. The legal code of Islam is known as Sharia, an Arabic word meaning "the way". Its sources include the Islamic holy book the Qur'an, the words and actions of the Prophet Muhammad, and the opinions of legal scholars. In the 7th century, Sharia started to replace the tribal laws of pre-Islamic Arabia; over the next three hundred years it underwent considerable evolution as Islam spread. By 900 a body of religious and legal scholarship recognisable as classical Sharia had emerged.

Hugh Kennedy, Professor of Arabic in the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London
Robert Gleave, Professor of Arabic Studies at the University of Exeter
Mona Siddiqui, Professor of Islamic Studies at the University of Glasgow"
