  1. Perhaps if I played even louder they'd beat it (or beat me)
  2. "I (Who Have Nothing)" - Ben E King -- An English language cover of the Italian song "Uno Dei Tanti" IMHO improved by Tom Jones
  3. I've got a similar problem. My neighbors bang on the wall when I practice the guitar, but they have the worst sense of rhythm. They never bang in time. I figure if I play louder, perhaps I can teach them how to keep the beat better.
  4. Gotta follow that one with: Mr. Roboto - Styx
  5. A teen idol is often a... "Superstar" - Delaney & Bonnie And Friends (written by Bonnie Bramlett & Leon Russell)
  6. I think it's just "Goin' Down Slow" ? ?
  7. Baba O'Riley - The Who A song mostly known as "Teenage Wasteland"
  8. Memphis - Lonnie Mack (one of Rock's first guitar heroes, who owns serial number 5, the first commercial Gibson Flying V guitar)
  9. That was too funny Steve. I'm jealous, I wish I had though of that ???
  10. Going Up the Country - Canned Heat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0PjECSyJ7w
  11. Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead - Warren Zevon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfSQOgu0ZJg
  12. There were too many donations from our 3 county area for a boat lift so my tent, food and paper plus the contributions of hundreds of others are now on an ocean-going barge pulled by a tug to the Bahamas. It should get there by tomorrow. It's a good start, but our good neighbors to the east will need help for a long time to come. Notes
  13. Isle Of The Dead -Sergei Rachmaninoff It's in 5/4 time, it's dark, it's brooding, and it's heavy. Give it a listen - this is not your grandfather's orchestral music
  14. They started collecting for a Boat-Lift today. The paper listed a number of collection points, I chose the closest and was happy to see a half dozen people there making donations. I had an 8'x10' cabin tent I haven't used in a few years and figured someone without a house needs it more than I do so I donated it, along with an ice-chest cooler. I went out and bought a case of Vienna Sausages, huge pack of 30 rolls of toilet paper, and a case of D cell batteries and added that to the donation. They should be on their way to the Bahamas by tomorrow morning as long as the seas aren't too rough. Local boat owners are donating their time and fuel to cart these supplies over and give them to the people who need them. By many of us doing a little each, it will mean a lot. Notes
  15. "Her" - Stan Getz (my all time favorite tenor sax player)
  16. Early Autumn - Jazz standard originally recorded by the Woody Herman Orchestra Won't embed - here is the link if you are interested
  17. Time Is On My Side - Kai Winding (The original version of the Rolling Stones Hit. Jimmy Norman wrote the rest of the lyrics, Irma Thomas recorded that version and the Rolling Stones covered Irma's version - sorry if that's TMI - I'm an amateur musicologist)
