Announcing the Jazzbo Notes “Bob Moses - Love Animal” Giveaway Contest!

All Jazzbo Notes members are invited to enter the “Bob Moses - Love Animal” Giveaway Contest.

At a time when fusion was little more than a rumor, Bob Moses’ Love Animal had the nerve to take on free jazz, rock, funk, and blues. And what a band! Besides Bob Moses on drums, they’ve got Larry Coryell, Steve Swallow, and Keith Jarrett on hand, legends all. According to Stewart Mason at Allmusic.com, Love Animal is …

…wildly exciting and forward-looking jazz from the period where free jazz was just beginning to take on rock & roll influences.

Rules:

1. The “Bob Moses - Love Animal” Giveaway Contest is only open to JazzboNotes.com members residing in the Continental United States. It’s easy to sign up if you haven’t already. Just click on the “Join Us!” button in the right hand column and follow the directions.

2. Find a musician who has covered any of the tunes on Meditations. Hint: you can find the answer in the posts on this site. Use the search button. For instructions on how to use the search button, check the About page under the Pages link in the top menu. When you’ve figured the name of a musician, send an email naming him, the name of the tune, and the album he plays it on to contest@JazzboNotes.com. In the subject line, put “Bob Moses - Love Animal Giveaway.”

3. Participate in the forum, either by answering a question or by asking one.

4. The winner of the contest will be picked at random from the forum entries. Nonsense entries like “This is an entry” will be disqualified. JazzboNotes.com will be the final judge of what qualifies as a valid forum entry. Then the email of the person who made the forum entry will be checked to see if they answered the trivia question correctly. If they did, they will be announced as the winner, in a posting on the front page of this site. The winner will have one week to email JazzboNotes.com at contest@JazzboNotes.com with the mailing address their prize should be sent to. Otherwise, they will forfeit the prize and another prize winner will be selected by the same process.

5. At least 100 people must enter the contest or no one will be awarded the prize. If you’ve entered the contest, take a look at the forum page. If there aren’t at least 100 posts after the date the contest is announced, that means that not enough people have yet entered the contest for the prize to be awarded. Feel free to tell other people who might be interested about the contest.

Good Luck!
