Right now I'm bedazzling myself helpless with the double CD Mike Porcaro: Brotherly Love. If you haven't heard it yet, you've probably missed one of the greatest musical jems there are around. ' Nuff said...

Not to say anything against Jimi, or Roy, or Buckwheat, or any of the 35,000,000 people who've covered it, but my favorite Hey Joe has always been .

Tedeschi-Trucks Band at this year's Lock'n festival with Bob W. joininig in on a couple of tunes.
 

Love ^that^ Brian!
 
Peter, here's another take on Hey Joe:
 

 
I met this Todd Parks cat (playing bass) last year at a local venue, but with his regular gig. One of the most impressive bass players I ever met, and a really personable guy too.

Nice, Gregory!  Mr. Parks is, indeed good, and so is Tim O'Brien - and I don't think I have ever not loved anything Jerry Douglas has played on; the best Dobroist of all time, period!

Didn't want to hi-jack  the thread that this was in:

Looks like it could be an outtake from Reefer Madness;  bass player hits some Maui Wowie backstage before the show and then goes 'crazy man!'.

That's a NICE kick to be on Wolf!  
 
I'm (still) on a McVie kick, and am about halfway through learning the tunes on his one album with a relatively unknown singer named Lola Thomas. I stumbled through this one late last night (ironically on the eve of an ex-girlfriend's birthday) and really got into the cool blue stuff he's playing:  
 

Thanks for that one, Jazzyvee.  Great arrangement and playing all around, and very nice bass once again from Peter.

Wow! Lola Thomas' voice is mesmerizing! What a great song. Thanks.
 
Somebody mentioned Tim O'Brien: here's two by *Red Knuckles and the Trailblazers

* according to Hot Rize' site ( http://hotrize.com/red-knuckles-trailblazers/ ); Red Knuckles and the Trailblazers is a band that travels in the back of the Hot Rize bus and occasionally spells their employers on stage. The foursome (Red Knuckles, Wendell Mercantile, Waldo Otto, and Swade) plays 40?s and 50?s country music as well as you might expect from people who have mostly listened to the same jukebox for most of their lives. That jukebox, at the Eat Cafe in Wyoming, Montana, is where Red and the boys first met Hot Rize and agreed to leave their home to pursue fortune and fame.
 
Check out Wendell's guitar:
 
 

Up the 'Blazers Ed_Zep! Love those guys!
 
That's seriously one of the funniest alter-ego comedic routines ever. Hot Rize was just at a local venue recently but I had a gig elsewhere that night.  
 
One of the funniest bits they ever did, at the Ryman Auditorium one night, they had Jerry Douglas dressed in a white tux, dark glasses and a huge cigar as the Trailblazer's manager, and Sam Bush in a blue and red leotard as Waldo's long-lost cousin.

This must be a version of the same thing, with Jerry Douglas and Sam Bush, though some of the details differ:
 
I've seen them live a bunch of times. Red introduced Waldo as the guy playing electric table one time, and it still cracks me up. (Especially because Waldo may - or may not - be closely related to Peter Wernick, in my unbelievably humble opinion, one of the greatest banjo players who ever lived).
 
I learned how to play a walking bass line from Swade. Red asked him to demonstrate walking bass for the crowd, and Swade played one note (completely offbeat, of course) while walking slowly back and forth across the stage. (I still can't do it on an upright, though.)
