  1. I will miss Bill and his sense of humor. RIP buddy.
  2. Shakey Ground - Etta James (my favorite version of this song) Phoebe Snow did a nice job too The original by the Temptations isn't bad either The evolution of a song
  3. Tarkovsky (The Second Stop is Jupiter) - Patti Smith
  4. The shipping is under-rated. Wake up
  5. "Live In A Northern Town" - Dream Academy
  6. @Pragi Jeff Beck and Wes are absolutely awesome guitarists. I watched the video of Jeff Beck live at Ronnie Scott's and my jaw dropped. Being a saxophonist who was lucky enough to play with a number of very great guitarists, I'm not awestruck very easily. I consider Jeff the most technically competent rock/pop guitarist going. The camera people must have played guitar in that video, because they knew where to focus when Jeff was doing superhuman things. Wes has always been a favorite too. I'm OK on the guitar, but it is my 7th instrument, so I'll never be in the same class as the greats. That's OK, as I progress I keep getting better at it, and that pleases me. Jeff @ Ronnie's
  7. Thanks Pragi Another fine bassist and pianist (the drummer ain't bad either)
  8. Die Fledermaus (The Bat) - Johann Strauss II
  9. "Get Up, Stand Up" - Bob Marley & The Wailers lyrics: Get Up, Stand Up. Stand Up For Your Rights
  10. Poison + Rose = Dead Flower Dead Flowers - Rolling Stones
  11. I'm in need of some good classic sax jazz today so here is one of my favorites by Mr. T. The Baddest Turrentine - Stanley Turrentine (full album)
  12. Time Is On My Side - Kai Winding Covered by Irma Thomas And the Rolling Stones covered Irma's version The evolution of a song.
  13. Sun Ra and his Intergalactic Arkestra - Jazz Session
  14. Craig: No I don't have an outfit like that, I had one worse in a band many years ago. It was a double-knit polyester jumpsuit and it was itchy. On the other hand: If I had hair like that, I wouldn't need to wear a hat on stage ------<back to the game>------ Roky Erickson was a very talented guy, too bad he had a tragic life 13th Floor Elevators - Roller Coaster
  15. Capriccio Italien - Pyotr Tchaikovsky - Igor Manasherov, Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra I love this piece of music. The simple one note "ta ka ta ta" theme finds its way all over this piece of music in different speeds, octaves and instruments. And in the middle there is the part that the Moody Blues quoted in "Days of Future Passed". I haven't heard this version, each conductor puts his/her own stamp on it. I have one at home by Antal Dorati that I can't find on UTube, and since I'm not familiar with this conductor, I'll give it a go.
