Very faithful to the original studio recording; for years ELP Works Vol. 1 was my favorite LP.Quote:

I was surprised to learn that this song was written by Kansas Joe McCoy and Memphis Minnie in 1929!Quote:

I always liked this album. My favorite from this one is 'Weathercock'.Quote:

Breaking Benjamin - So Cold lyrics - YouTube
Back in the 90s I lived next door to a band for a while. That can be either great or terrible depending on the band, but in this case it was fantastic. They were great guys and great musicians who filled my life with plenty of free live music from the basement next door. And as a bonus and old friend I hadn't seen for years and years used to stop by and jam with them. While the singer Damon has gone on to other things (solo work as well as the band "Nathan"), he just posted on Facebook that the Meanies are getting back together for a show in December. I wish I could be back home to catch that, but since I can't at least I can go on a bit of a nostalgia bender with the New Meanies (and until they had to change their name aka the Blue Meanies).

I've said it before, I'll say it again. Live at Filmore East is hands down one of the five best albums ever recorded. If you can't find something you like on this album, odds are good you just don't like music
Done Somebody Wrong - The Allman Brother Band Live at Fillmore East - YouTube
Allman Brothers, one of my all time favorites.
Thanks!
Here's one of my favorite tracks from, "Eat a Peach":

"Duke Ellington and his Orchestra 56" with some sun on the back patio with a 10 year old Montecristo No. 4. : )
Today's inflight sound track was a collection of Funk and then Hard rock. Great views of the wilds of Mexico (Rugged mountains, snow, pine trees, rivers and lakes from 9500 feet across the central ranges enroute to Chihuahua. The Admiral enjoyed the view as well...
Marshall Tucker Band, "Can't You See."
Some fine guitar work in this classic song...

I'd like to contrast two very different interpretations of a song -- the first cut on the aforementioned album -- "Who Will The Next Fool Be?"Quote:

Canonsburg, PA's own, Bobby Vinton! The song is from 1964, which was when I saw him perform at the Allegheny County Fair. He had a fair amount of hits; this one is creme-de-la-creme stuff.

OK, so it's kind of a sappy song but you older guys, tell me you've never slow danced with some young lovely to this song and totally dug it!

Remember actually watching this show when it broadcast in the 70's, Dick Cavett and Janis Joplin, all I can say is WOW, she could really get a grove on and is an icon of that great era in music!:

Well Phrank, I was a bit surprised with your Allman Brothers and Marshall Tucker. So now I'll surprise you. Keep in mind I am an American and a Southerner but I totally dig Stompin Tom

Would you believe Eric Clapton (with Derek and the Dominoes) on the old Johnny Cash Show? Don't miss the Carl Perkins walk-on.

Story with this one. I bought this album back when it was new (and people still listened to albums.) My parents were both Hoosiers so they knew Hogie Carmichael (the guy who wrote most of the songs on this album.) When I called my Mom in to listen to Willie's new tunes. She laughed and said, "I hate to bust your bubble kid but this ain't new music, I used to dance to these songs when I was about your age."

Like many others, I have been thinking of South Africa today, and of the struggles that that country has gone through. And when I think of that, it's only a matter of time before this song pops into my head.
