ReplyDeleteBe a hoot if the Golden-haired Hippy Chick makes a reappearance!
ReplyDeleteAllen, I don't know if we're going to pull that deal out over there, or not; But, I'm telling you something son, those damned Bush haters are coming absolutely unglued.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching it for a couple of days, and I wanted to let it go a bit before I "officially" took notice, but I'm taking notice. Those bastards are exuding fear and panic. Maybe. Just Maybe. Right?
The Thirll Is Gone
ReplyDeleteTo Hell, you say.
Stevie Ray - He almost got pretty good with that thang, didn't he?
ReplyDeleterufus,
ReplyDeleteYou know my feelings about Mr. B; but G-d Almighty, these people can't wait to dance at the wake. It's just batshit crazy! Suicidal! One day these fools are just likely to have Ahmed grant their death wish.
The US just can't do anything right.
rufus,
ReplyDeleteStevie Ray never stopped trying.
Good Lord, I've fought in a foreign war, been to two county fairs, and a goat roping; But, I Ain't Never Seen Nothing Like That.
ReplyDeleteMan, That Was Awesome!
That was, I'm pretty sure, shot at BB's club in Memphis. I'd never seen him play with Gary Moore.
ReplyDeleteThat was Just Incredible. I was bouncin in my seat.
Bush bashing, it's only just begun.
ReplyDeleteAs time ticks on, as summer nears, when there is no agreement at the Baghdad conference tomorrow or Sunday, the march to slow failure will continue.
The Iranians, the Syrians, the Saudsi will not stop the interference in Iraq, even if they say they will.
To imagine they will, foolish.
We will say the Iranians and Syrians are causing the ruckus, they'll laugh and say it's the 150,000 US troops that are the main impediment to Peace.
rufus's Iraq the Model link made the same analogy I made the other day concerning Iraq and reconciliation, Palistine and Israel. 60 years of civil war with no reconciliation, at all.
Where's all this bashing going on?

ReplyDeleteThree fingers of single malt - Here's to you, Stevie.
ReplyDeleteBetter believe the good Lord loves a "bad" lick. He made us that way. Nothing like it in nature.
And for those of a certain age:

ReplyDeleteWe never thought we would lose to those so small.
ReplyDeleteBut we did. We have.
Man, they just don't have no Geetar pickers in Tennessee, do they?
ReplyDeleteJames Brown
ReplyDelete"Small"
ReplyDeleterufus,
ReplyDeleteNo one had more vocal range.
Van Morrison w/ The Band @ The Last Waltz - Caravan Van, normally inhibited by severe stage fright, hits one of those Michael Jordan zones in the music world, leaving smiles of joy on the faces of The Band as they rise to the occasion.
ReplyDeleteGeorge Clinton and P-Funk light one up! Super funky groove, but, what else would the Mothership bring ya?
ReplyDeleteCooler
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that Benson is one of the most underrated musicians around.
ReplyDeleteThat he is Allen. Any guitar player will tell you that playing melody lines while singing is very hard to do. Hendrix of course did it with ease. Benson does, too. Not many others.
ReplyDeleteAnother P-Funk, this time actually bringing the Mothership to the stage while singing Let Me Ride. The young guy into whose face George Clinton blows reefer smoke was Glen Goins, who unfortunately did not have the chance to achieve the acclaim that his voice would have brought him - died at age 24 from Hodgkins disease. Man, he's got some pipes, and so, so soulful.
whoops, here's the link.
ReplyDeleteYou want Geetars? These boys can get Busy. Kinda like Baghdad
ReplyDeleteThe Beatles Rooftop Concert part 1 - Get Back, followed by one of my most fav Beatles tunes, Don't Let Me Down. I believe this was their last public appearance together.
ReplyDeletej willie,
ReplyDeleteDude! Swing low, yeah.
Where's the Wolf Man?
ReplyDeleteSome mighty fine arm-hair raising sounds in this old bar tonight.
ReplyDeleteJanis
ReplyDeleteMelissa kicks ass!
Janis would have been pleased.
Foolish Games
ReplyDeleteWhere is Teresita?
ReplyDeletegoing through an occasional morph.
ReplyDeleteThe Real McCoy Me and Bobby McGee.
ReplyDeleteClapton - Crossroads from current Derek & the Dominos themed tour.
ReplyDeleteAllen, Derek Trucks is the second of the two young guitarists and obviously plays slide.
Probly have to have Glen swing the Mothership in and wake me up in the am.
ruffie man, the real deal indeed.
ReplyDeleteGuess who was living on the street in Reno, learning to count cards when this was the Fav Lounge tune?
ReplyDeleteThere was a lounge singer out there thaat could really light this one up. I wish I could remember his name.
Last one for me, riffing off Allen's Melissa Etheridge/Joss Stone performance, here's a slightly more mature and HOT looking Joss Stone singing Son of a Preacher Man. Those legs just go one for miles.....whew!
ReplyDeleteGreat night at the bar, gents. Big tip to the barkeeps and g'nite to all.
Samba pa ti
ReplyDeleteIt's been real. Nite all!
ReplyDeleteSeminal Billie
ReplyDeleteOf course, it's all been down hill since Patsy
ReplyDeleteThis was the first time I realized that there was a gal out there somewhere that could really sing.
Nite All.
ReplyDeletenite gents.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive, men.
ReplyDeleteHad no idea all that is available on the net.

March 3, 1999...The Jefferson Airplane were honored with a permanent plaque in front of San Francisco's Bill Graham Auditorium today. Band participants included Paul Kantner, Jorma Kaukonen, Jack Casady and Spense Ddyden.
Noticeably missing were lead singers Grace Slick and Marty Balin.
Paul Kantner: "What's the difference between God and a lead singer?
God knows he's not a lead singer."
The ghost of Janis Joplin hides in the corners of the Avalon Ballroom, where she played her first show with Big Brother and the Holding Company in June 1966.
ReplyDeleteIt was the first place she was ever a star.

Bill Graham was born Wolfgang Grajonca in Berlin, the youngest son of a Jewish family that had emigrated to Germany prior to the rise of Nazism. Graham's father died when he was a baby.
ReplyDeleteAs it became increasingly difficult for Jews to survive in Nazi Germany, Graham's mother placed Graham and his younger sister in an orphanage in Berlin.
This turned out to be fortunate, as the orphanage sent them to France as a pre–Holocaust exchange of Jewish children for Christian orphans.
Graham's mother died in Auschwitz. His sister Ester survived Auschwitz and later moved to the United States and was very close to Graham in his later life.
His sister Rita escaped by working as a dancer, first to Shanghai and then, after the war, to the United States.
Graham was drafted into the United States Army in 1951, although he officialy still wasn't a U.S. Citizen, and served in the Korean War, where he was awarded the Bronze Star and Purple Heart for bravery in combat.
Whit,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for a thoroughly enjoyable thread!!!
Last night was a blast - great idea whit/deuce. Of course, my wife wasn't happy that I spent Friday night (from her perspective) in isolation w/ the computer listening to (loud) music. From my perspective, it was a virtual trip back to a Friday night in college, when w/ nothing else to do, we would gather around the best stereo, drink beer, play our favorite tunes and talk trash. Great time then and now.
ReplyDeleteAllen and j willie:
ReplyDeleteSorry, I just came back to this thread. Thanks for the kind words. It was fun and j. willie, I know what you mean about the wife not being happy with the hobby. I got the same response. Oh well.
