Chris Isaak

he won´t stop surprising me.... I love this man´s music

Check out Chris´cover of MY GIRL

Great version! Smokey seemed to be enjoying it too!

Yeah, but is it just me, or does Smokey look like Kenny Rogers?

They have the same father.

Yeah, they are like two water drops... specially when it comes to the skin color.

If by "the same father" you mean "the same plastic surgeon," then you could be right.

Nip and Tuck-a-billy

I guess I meant the resemblance in a somewhat more superficial, or surgical, way:



For frame of reference:

Thanks for catching my drift, Rick!

I take it back. Kenny's surgeon seems to have preserved his ability to have normal expressions with his eyebrows, whereas Smokey seems to be stuck in a state of perpetual astonishment!

Dear God! Whatever happened to aging gracefully? This is just to darned scary for words!

btw....love Chris Isaack!

Alright... you win


Looking at these two pictures made me reconsider my first opinion.

Kenny needs more tanning sessions though

Not trying to win anything, mi amigo, just wonderin'!

And yes, that Izaak is to be admired. I've a hunch there're no surgical surprises in his future!

Vaya con dios, y recuerdes: Rock on!

ps: I hope I got that Espanol right!

your spanish is fine. Got you.

I am still wating for a duet Isaak/Setzer.

Maybe some day....

Wow. This one would send us gals over the moon in a hurry. If this ever happens, someone please have a well-stocked supply of smelling salts to "snap us out of it".


Going to my happy place,

and you know there are quite a few songs that they would play together for sure, cause they have very similar influences in their music.


What always surprised me is that Brian never got invited to The Chris Isaak Show on tv. Every week he had a different musician as a guest, and sang a few songs together. He had Junior Brown, Paul Stanley, Stevie Nicks or Brett Michaels just to name a few.... and each week I´d wait to see if it was Brian´s turn.... unfortunately it never happened.

I´ve read Chris Isaak articles over the years where he always talked nice about Brian´s work with the Orquestra, so I assume he admired what Setzer did with the BSO... but oh well, tv seems to be such a complicated world....

Maybe on the 4th Chris Isaak Show season our dreams will come true.

It has happened, apparently - on August 19, 1994 at the Bimbo's 365 Club in San Fransisco, California, Chris Isaak joined Brian & the orchestra for "Your True Love". All according to the Anchorman's Brian Setzer Eventology. Kinda interesting site , by the way. Just a shame that it hasn't been updated in a while...

Gracias!

I think something like "I won't stand in your way' would be a good duet piece for these two fellers! Somebody go over to the other bbs and tell Tommy to make it happen!

Love to hear them do Breath of life, now that's got to chart high!

Wow what a version. It brought out the goose bumps big time. He must have a new CD on the horizon??? Geez, another old timer who can't age gracefully. Remember the late great Jack Lemmon? Cracks me up when Walter Matthau said no one realised he had it done (he was joking)

René

Chris Isaak, would be nice with a Scandinavian tour.
Meet him way back in 1993, what a nice cat, one of the nicest I ever meet. And so talented in singin' it hurts

It's really good. About Vampires today in New Orleans. Chris Issack sings the theme song. I want to do bad things with you. It's great!!!!!!
