At the same time as the catastrophic Russian invasion

Napoleon's Final YearsIn October 1815, Napoleon was exiled to the remote Rosetta Stone language, British-held island of Saint Helena, in the South Atlantic Ocean.

A trickle-up theory, you might say

In fact, some of Densmores friends have begun asking him to sign their old Doors Cheap Rosetta Stone records. As one told him: "Shit, your guys are famous again."There has been some spillover from the younger listeners to a slightly more adult crowd, but it seems largely caused by proximity rather than taste.

"Half of it is their fascination with the music, half is with Jim. Talk about the living dead." Or, you might say, his identifiable,...

Being James Brown: Rosetta Stone's 2006 Story

In Augusta, Georgia, in May 2005, they put up a bronze statue of James Brown, the Cheap Rosetta Stone Godfather of Soul, in the middle of Broad Street. During a visit to meet James Brown and observe him recording parts of his new album in an Augusta studio, I went and had a look at it. The James Brown statue is an odd one in several ways. For one, it is odd to see a statue standing not on a pedestal, flat on its feet on the ground. This was done at James Browns request, reportedly. The premise being: man of the people. The result, however: somewhat fake-looking statue. Another difficulty is that the statue is grinning. Members of James Browns band, present while he was photographed for reference by the statues sculptor, told me or their attempts to get James Brown to quit smiling for the...

Hes always painted by what I told him, and I didnt say anything

The interlude also inspired lighting director Chris Kurodas most colorfully geometric Cheap Rosetta Stone 3-D effects (which were sadly missing from the bands recent 3-D movie).The sets energy level waned shortly after Guyute, though.

We had just come to the end of our first massive American tour

He woke me up, I came downstairs, and said, "Glenn, it seems like youre living after midnight Rosetta Stone down here." And he said, "Thats a great title for this song!" Its full of memories like that — walking around the lake where Lennon was rowing across in that "Imagine" video. I always will be a Beatles fan. If you want to learn about writing a good song, listen to the Beatles. Its as simple as that. At what point did you realize youd come up with such a strong album?30 years later [laughs]. Were so British in that way — we never take anything for granted. Its natural to feel good about what youve created, but you have no control over its fate or destiny. Its up to the masses to figure where its going to stand. But looking at its value 30 years later, its an important record for the...
