    I have been a fan of jaime brockett since first hearing his first album in 1969. i had the great pleasure of seeing him live in a club called "godfrey daniels" in bethlehem, pa. in the early 1990's. it is still a great memory.

    1968 drove my '63 beater VW way out west of Chicago to pick-up KAAY Little Rock station, Beeker Street.

    Jamie and a girl (wish I could remember her name) gave me a ride outside of Boulder, CO back in the mid 1970s. I was 16 or 17 years old and hitchhiking west. A few miles into the ride Jamie asked if I was in a hurry, I wasn't so he stopped by a small river to do a little fishing. I had a guitar with me, he said, Why don't you play us a tune? I think I played a couple of Mississippi John Hurt songs. They were on their way to a small mountain town where some friends lived to hang out and play music, Jamie asked me if I wanted to go with them, but foolishly I said no. Walking back to his truck he nodded toward the girl and said "I'm gonna to marry her some day".
    I wonder if he did.

    I used to go see Jaime every chance I could at the Main Point in Bryn Mawr, Pa. I have some really good pictures of him somewhere that I took while he was performing. With his permission of course! Iwould really enjoy seeing him again and let my kids see a really gracious and talented entertainer.I hope he is well and enjoying life. best of luck to him.

    I use to listen to the Mighty 1090 KAAY Little Rock with Clyde Clifford, and Beeker Street. I Love this song, such geo-political satire. Great. I would listen to the Guess Who, and Clyde would play Friends of Mine off of their Wheatfield Soul album 1968, my Jr. year in high school, and such a cultural awakening for this midwest, sheltered, person.

    KAAY Little Rock. Beeker Street. Brings back memories. Back in '68 had to drive my old beat-up '63 VW out to DuPage Airport in St. Charles, IL just to pick-up that AM radio station.

    Daniel,

    You and I must be about the same age. I to used to listen to AM radio, KAAY, late night. It's the first place I heard Brockett, and the Guess Who song. A couple of years back I purchased the Guess Who CD, as well as Brockett's now available CD of Remember the Wind and the Rain. Looking forward to CD's of the other two. I do have all three of his alblums, framed and on the wall in my office.

    Yea. First Heard This (ballad of the titanic) On Beeker Street In 1972. I Gotta' Tel Ya' Folk's, This Tune And Beeker Street Are 2 Absolute Classics. My Pal's & I Would Make Sure We We Were Drivin' Round The Country Around 11:00 P.M. To Catch The Intro To Clear Channel 1090 KAAY Beeker Street. 50,000 Watt's That Could Be Heard Into Canada & Down To The Gulf Of Mexico. It Was Always Fading In And Out Which Made It Even More Cool, Considering We Were All Smokin' Weed & Doin' LSD Or Mescaline. But It Took Me Years To Find A Copy Of This Classic Tune. I Just Listened To It Again On My Com-Pooter & It Still Makes Me Laugh. That's Why I'm Here. Late 60's , Early 70's ... Some Good Times. Dig It. Yea, I'm 55 Years Old. Wish I Could Go Back There Again. :)
