At dinner tonight, a friend recommended the album, Illuminations, by Carlos Santana and Alice Coltrane; so that's what I'm listening to now.  I had never heard it before.

Been listening to Lou Reed Rock 'n Roll Animal Still a classic album.

Paul, it is the album which just came out a month or so ago. Daltrey is in great form, but singing Wilko's songs allows him a different style than Who songs. As a long-time fan of Dr. Feelgood (and Wilko Johnson), it was initially a bit weird to hear Daltrey's voice on well known material instead of Lee Brilleaux, but within a few songs I was hooked. Of course, there is Wilko. It is in heavy rotation.
 
And yes, Gatton was amazing. The session with Robert Gordon is also a great album, especially for an unplanned recording.

I just love this:
 

 
Nancy does a great second vocal (Maggie Bell's lines from the original), Ann is in typically fine voice, and their FOH guy is really on his toes catching the echo'd single repeats on Ann's vocals towards the end.  If they'd done 'Going to California' right after this, it would have been beyond fine . . . . I just love those two, and why oh why doesn't Nance have a Little Darling ? ?

I'm listening to Danny Kirwan's guitar work on from Bare Trees.  I love his guitar playing, and this is a nice simple example of why.

That was awesome J o e y! Thanks for sharing!

Goat Rodeo Sessions with Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile,Yo Yo Ma and Stuart Duncan followed up with George Harrison's 33 & 1/3 (This Song, Crackerbox Palace, etc.) with the incomparable Willie Weeks on bass guitar!

That's a great version of Battle of Evermore!

huh - youtube - one thing leads to another . . .  

Kennedy Center, Heart covering Stairway, brings a tear to Plant's eye at the end.

Earlier today I watched a good bit of a documentary about the .  The documentary had some interesting elements, and the concert footage was pretty good.

Gatton could play.
 
Heard John Sebastian on NPR last week say that Nashville Cats was inspired during his first trip to that fair city when he went into  some place and was blown away by the band, featuribg a teen-aged Danny Gatton.

IN reference to  Nashville Cats;  I  was working for Bill Graham @  
Day On The Green , Sunday  May 28, 1978 .  
The line up was: The Beach Boys, Linda Ronstadt,Elvin Bishop,
Dolly Parton , Norton Buffalo_____  
 
  Well, what  more can I say ____,Dolly Partons band was beyond incredible !   I would think that her band consisted of____  Nashville Cats  !  
 
The Beach Boys never really seem to get off the ground  for some reason to my perception  at that particular show in comparison to the amazing instrumentalists in Dolly Partons band in my opinion and ears. The Beach Boys had top billing at that show ____

Listened to HB3 Plays the Piccolo Bass today.

I like his playing very much as well .
