Speaking of Detroit-------How a little bit of Uncle Ted at his 6000th concert and guess where it was:w
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQbz-PMvY0M
I saw Terrible Ted twice back during the 80's-loudest concerts I ever saw! And though I will crank up "Stranglehold" every time I hear it to my dying day, I couldn't pay to go see him now because he makes my skin crawl.
How about a little Grand Funk Railroad from back in the day playing Live?

I made an alarm tone out of this. "Get up pah! Get on up. Get up pah! Get on up"
I liked them a lot better when they were a blues review. Peter Green was one of the few white blues players that didn't over play. I really like Matt Schofield but man that guy can't end a song without over playing to save his life. Another good white blues player, one of the best if not the best IMHO is Robin Trower. He's a fabulous slick and quick guitar player but his best quality is phrasing which is really what you need for blues. If you like that song you just posted you should check out Robin trower's last couple of albums. Three or four really. It's very deeply rooted in blues which I was glad to see because that's his strong suit.

Of course if we're going to talk about white blues players we can't forget Sky Dog.:bow I was never a big Dickey Betts fan but I swear playing with Duane made him better. I saw them live with Warren Haynes playing in Duane's vacancy and Warren SMOKED Dickey. I mean, it was almost embarrassing. Now, Warren was nowhere near as good as Duane and yet Dickey seemed not far behind Duane.:hmmm::shrug:
Anyway if you're listening in stereo Duane is all the way left. Dickey is off center right. Also Duane plays first, second and fourth solo. ALSO (I just love this song. My favorite version...other than Ray's. It's my answer to those people who say Duane could play slide but not fret play) listen to the transition after Dickey's solo how they bring it down and Dickey plays a phrase then Duane plays the next phrase like he just got handed the baton. It is really slick. In mono it sounds like one solo. If you notice he plays very few different notes. He just makes those few notes into spectacular phrases.
Okay, let's see if anyone has heard of this guy.

If not listen to it. It's a treat to watch and hear

Even though I normally listen to very different genres, I just love this song.
How about a skinny 25 year old Texan playing a song he wrote about one of his heros? :hmmm:
It gets interesting at about 1:40 in.

I heard this on my online radio station 'Rockabilly Radio' so I looked and by God there's a video.
Great Harmony :tu

I've been on a real Frank Turner kick of late. If you're into podcasts and have an interest in song writing and history, check out "No Man's Land". It's a podcast series that accompanies his recent album of the same name. Good stuff.

I just read that Ginger Baker (the drummer in Cream) passed away at the age of 80.
Rolling Stone Magazine rated him the 3rd greatest drummer in the world/behind Keith Moon and John Bonham.
Here's Cream live at the Royal Albert Hall in 1968:

Hey Roy: thanks for putting this into my head in another thread. :tu

John Lee Hooker was the closer at this performance by George. There was also several others that George wanted to pay tribute to.

Every once in a while I'm reminded a) how much I loved this album when it came out, and b) young Mr. Vedder has some serious pipes!

The new Tool album. Fear Inoculum
Really been enjoying this one lately, the Magik Markers from 2013:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAaq2_PkypY
No stranger than Pink Floyd or Radiohead in my estimation. Just more bleeding edge to borrow from a bit of overused tech lingo.
Anyways, that’s what I’ve always liked about Tool. They are very different. No cookie cutter band here. I read that they incorporated the Fibonacci Sequence into one of their songs on a previous album. Very nerdy stuff alright.
Brian Eno, "King's Lead Hat."
Loved this in high school, back when it first was released. Never saw the video, until now. Oh, wow. Soviet Clutch Cargo, British sci-fi UFO episode references, sideways shots of Eno in evil clown makeup, and much, much more. I'm forever changed in how I view this song...

I stumbled upon this and while it's not just a 'listen' but also a watch. I really enjoyed watching what seems to truly genuine affection of those in attendence:

Another one of my favorites is Bix Beiderbecke.
Bix probably had the hottest band of the 1920s.

Never thought of that comparison, but yeah I hear it..
Nice, thanks for checking her out, she has a nostalgic vibe to her stuff, and her covers.

I posted about this here last week when we lost him, but as that got lost in the server schmazel, and as I'm still in the midst of an SOTW bender, I think it bears repeating.
John Mann, long-time singer, song writer, and leader of Spirit of the West died last week. He was only in his 50s, and suffered from early onset dementia. It's always hard to lose an artist whose work has had as much of an effect on our lives as John's did on mine. But this one's particularly hard to take because such a brilliant mind was taken so early. I spent MANY an evening with SOTW back in the 80s and 90s, particularly during my time living in Newfoundland, and they were in part responsible for my no longer being able to smell tequila, let alone drink it. :) Worst hangover ever, but man, what a fun night that was.

I'm listening to The Queen of the Blues: Bessie Smith.
My favorite blues is the music of the Pre-war (before 1940) Female singers.
They sang about sex, booze, poverty, bad relationships, illness, and hard times.
Of all the singers, Bessie Smith is my favorite!
