I'm sure I posted this one before (reposts aren't against the rules, but I try not to do that too often), but I like the song. Thunder And Lightning - Chi Coltrane

Fun-guy, like the plural of fungus? When they made me they threw out the mold.

Storm? Hurricane Season - Trombone Shorty

Self-Deleted. I was playing the association game here with a song I wouldn't necessarily listen to.

This is the most unusual take I've heard on this song. Yes, it's a corny song, but this is a very original take on it. I wouldn't buy the CD, but I found it interesting. The singer seems to be influenced by Amy Winehouse, the trumpet player is quite good, they seem to be playing different styles, but it sort-of works.

Space Cowboy - Steve Miller Band

Bungle In The Jungle - Jethro Tull

lyrics: Turn up the quiet, love wants to dance Love Dance - Diane Schuur

Mississippi Queen - Mountain

Dallas - Johnny Winter I love his guitar work on this one.

I Believe I'll Dust My Broom - Robert Johnson (and a zillion covers)

Orange Colored Sky - Nat King Cole with Stan Kenton and his Orchestra

Blinded by the Light - Bruce Springsteen And a cover by Manfred Mann

I learned to play guitar and bass in my first road band. We played the college circuit and eventually opening for headliners in concert. The guitarist had an Epiphone Sheraton I, and it was a beautiful guitar. He also had a Kay guitar that he kept as a backup. It had a neck like a baseball bat and strings about a mile away from the fretboard. He taught me how to play barre chords on it so that when the songwriter didn't have the good sense to put a sax part in the song, I could play rhythm guitar. The bass player also played guitar, so he taught me how to play bass. In the same group the drummer was a good singer, and since my first instrument was drums, I would sit at the kit a few times a night, so he could get out front and sing. As time went on, I got better at all 3. I never got to play the Sheraton, and I always struggled with the Kay. After that band broke up I bought a Gibson ES-330 and found out how comparatively easy one could play on a guitar with a decent neck. I still have that 330. But to this day, I greatly dislike Kay guitars. Notes
