Dear Mr. Morgan,

Just wanted to make you aware of this and of course feel free to pass on to your contacts. You can access this on the web at www.mnn.org and selecting channel 56. High speed connection required and Windows software seems best suited. (Apple software doesn't get it, it seems, though I could be wrong on that.) Segment on you is toward the end and much too short -- but it's there! I'd like to do a full feature on you sometime -- if you're going to be in NYC, please get in touch.

The Hellacopters and New York City bluesman SaRon Crenshaw will be featured on the debut program of the new series SOME REAL MUSIC on MNN (Manhattan Neighborhood Network), on Time Warner cable channel 56, RCN cable channel 84 and on the internet at www.mnn.org (select channel 56), this Wednesday, Sept. 20 @ 4:30 pm (New York time). (Not the best timeslot so set your DVR, TiVo, VCR!)

There will be live footage of The Hellacopters from their Bowery Ballroom (NYC) show of March 10, 2006, as well as interview segments with Nicke Andersson and Robert Eriksson. Also a quick look at Nicke Andersson's collaborations with Scott Morgan (The Hydromatics and The Solution) is featured.

The series SOME REAL MUSIC is produced and hosted by Joe Chonto, freelance music critic (weekly newspaper column, former senior editor Modern Keyboard, etc.) and drummer whose latest project was co-founding the band Tripwave with guitarist/songwriter Dino Sorbello.

SOME REAL MUSIC is a series dedicated to great musicians of almost all genres. Mainly rock and jazz artists will be featured, but there will also be blues, folk, funk, soul, country and eastern music artists.

Some of those artists are Mission of Burma, New York Dolls, The Buzzcocks, The Mooney Suzuki, Nebula, Acid Mothers Temple, Radio Birdman, The Detroit Cobras, The Ribeye Bros., George Clinton, classic (and contemporary!) soul/gospel singer Candi Staton, Chicago bluesmen Dave Specter and Lurrie Bell, Melvin Sparks, bluegrass
singer/songwriter Greg Garing and jazz artists Dave Douglas, Sam Rivers, Charles Gayle, Rashied Ali, Billy Bang, William Parker, David S. Ware, Jaleel Shaw, Andrew Cyrille, Kidd Jordan, Hamid Drake and numerous others.

DON'T MISS IT!!!

NOTE: Mid -December there will be a timeslot change to something more prime.

Kind regards,

Joe Chonto
