Wow; just listened to the Chris Thile piece that Greg linked above.  Cool that you got to play with him.

Watermelon Man! Good lord that takes me back. . . .  Great stuff.
 
Speaking of, I can't answer to why I don't have any Jimmy Cliff in my album collection:

Christine Perfect - The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions.
 
Somewhat by contrast - I'm going to see her perform with Fleetwood Mac tomorrow night in North Carolina... never saw them with Chris before, having missed my chance in 1997. Always loved her smoky lounge singer's voice. Anyway, I managed to get seats right on eye level with a clear view of her ex-husband John's bass rig. =)

Can't. Stop.Listening.    !

Clarence White. When you're smilin'...

A really good video  of   The Faces  :  
 
There are many good views of Ronnie Lane's Zemaitis Bass .
This was 1972 and  custom hand made instruments like our Alembic's were rare birds !  
 
I really liked Ronnie Lanes  Musicianship . He left us WAY before his time !  
 

Ahhh Clarence... wow, talk about one who really went before his time, and yet was light-years ahead of his time... smilin' indeed.  
 

 
I had the pleasure of meeting and performing with his brother Roland a couple years ago. Peach of a guy... very approachable, genial, and inspirational musician. Winning Grammys didn't go to his head.

JJ Cale & Leon Russell at the Paradise Studios, LA 1979  
 

 
This is A MUST SEE  just to see JJ Cales MODIFIED HARMONY GUITAR ! His own work .
 
 Good Video & Audio Quality  
 
I am a long time fan of both JJ Cale & Leon Russell , A fun video !

Dub Like An Antelope-Legends of Reggae Play The Music of Phish.
 
It's Xander's favorite, especially Bouncing Around the Room, so we listen to it at least twice a day. It's got some great performers on it: Chalice, Steel Pulse, Toots, Chinna Smith, etc. Interesting to hear these songs with people who can REALLY sing.
 
Now that Xander's figuring out how to use a computer, life is getting more interesting.

Am I the only one who, on every hearing of Bouncing Around the Room, hears it's refrain in my ear while my brain hears  
 
Two hangmen hangin' from a tree  
And that don't bother me
At all?

Since I?ve watched Whiplash several days ago, I?ve been on a binge of Don Ellis music... starting, of course, with the movie?s title track:
 

Thanks for the Clarence White!

That recording that Edward put up is exactly the one I was listening to.  What a miracle.  there is another Youtube audio out there of Clarence noodling backstage on his Tele, just warming up - easy to find, and absolutely devastating.  As my big brother says, if you want to know how all of the country rock of the 70s got started, listen to that!

Is it?

That's the long version. There's also a shorter one which is the one I was talking about. Crazy stuff. If I could play Buckaroo like that I'm not sure I would ever do anything else.
