I seen one of the lennon boys once. Dreadful.

three words: eagle-eye cherry.

Zak Starkey is a pretty good drummer. Everybody else on that list can basically suck a dick.

I think you just made thousands or girls with tear stained pictures of Jeff Buckley, clipped from the NME weep themselves to sleep. Me, I just think he sounded like a trapped boy.

I don't like Rufus or Martha as much as I like Loudon Wainwright but I do have a soft spot for Jeff Buckley (fuck off). I never could listen to Tim Buckley though.
Don't care about the others.

Martha is right goer. Ask simmo.

C'mon Simmo, answer the call.

I've never heard the offspring of any of my favourite musicians play anything I though was all right.

And citing examples like Jakob Dylan and Sean Lennon is sure to result in a lot of anti-musician's kid sentiments.

If you were born to a famous musician, why not surprise the world and do something else for a change? Like become a plumber.

I haven't heard Martha's second album, but I liked the first. I like some of Jeff Buckley. Rufus is okay. What does Ty Braxton play?
