Here you go again Toby! Introducing this “Listening To” thread again… making me listen to artists I don’t know & finding new groups to follow… singing along to new songs… opening up new genres…
expanding my horizons…
C’mon man!
I only have so much time in a day & my boss kinda/sorta expects me to do at least a little work, ya know?
When he asks me what I did all day - I’m supposed to tell him that I found all this cool new music? Give me a break… I’m trying to work here & maybe learn a little bit of guitar… you’re killin’ me man!!!
Tod
P.S. Love me a bit of Justin Johnson! He’s got some really cool videos!
Yeah funny how I seem to keep the ball rolling but with a much needed nudge from @sairfingers this year. Must be getting old, one day just seems like another.
BTW what’s work ?
These are the videos of live performances of the songs I have been working on today. Such good stuff.
Covered White Rabbit a few years back, its somewhere in my back catalogue. Great song and Grace has a wonderful voice.
Love that resonator. I cant do much with mine yet. But I did put it into the D,G,D,G,B,D tuning and gave it a shot. I need a lot more practice.
You say I am putting my self in a state of mind to be an effective and efficient emplyee sir.
Someone once asked me if I smoked after sex.
I replied: “I don’t know, I haven’t looked”…
Cheers,
Keith
So last week I wanted to go back to some of the grade one videos and redo some of them them and sing, plus get all the extras I could not do back when I started. Somebody to love was one of them. I followed the white rabbit.
I was watching the video of them performing for the first time on the Dick Clark show American Bandstand. She was so rad dressed as a nun. She was totally amazing and way ahead of her time.
I am sure my Grandparents hated her and thought anyone who listened to this music was going to hell.
Here is the 1967 Dick Clark American Band Stand vid if anyones interested Its the 2 songs, White Rabbit and Want Somebody to Love the short interview after is so cool, the guys in the band were such heads.
Justin has a stage one lesson on “Want somebody to love”. It ripe and ready to pep up as he always says.
Here is that link Want Somebody to Love, if anyone wants it.
Ah, Jefferson Airplane are among my favourites. Their spot on the Dick Cavett Show with Joni Mitchell, Crosby, Stills and Nicky Hopkins the day after Woodstock (or maybe the same day) was also very good:
And they beat The Beatles for a rooftop gig by c. 2 months:
My offering:
the guy on the Vibraphone is absolutely killing it… the guitar parts are totally solid…not to mention the level of talent displayed by the other two in the quartet!!!
Amazing!!!
Tod
Very cool video, thanks for sharing! I wish sometimes I was a teenager at that time.
That was amazing. I cant believe that Jefferson Airplane did that before the Beatles and dont get the cred for it. They were robbed, but were so cool they didn’t even care.
Thanks for sharing those 2 vids
One of my favourite artists, too…
For the next 6 months, a whole lot of blues! This song has really caught my attention though. It will be a great use of my brass bodied resonator.
