Greg Piccolo & Heavy Juice, Red Lights.  I did monitors for Roomful of Blues a couple of nights back when Greg was their frontman, so when I saw this at a thrift store for 99ยข, I figured why not?
About halfway in, I'm finding solid blues with a jazzy tinge (as expected) and one reggae-inflected number (not expected); Piccolo sings & plays alto, tenor, and a little guitar, backed by drums, keys, & bass.
Definitely well worth the expense...........

John Scofield with Gov't Mule.  This is fun.

I used to work with a guy that recognized that I played a whole lot of Gov't Mule on my computer at work.
His comment was; "You can't be a fool if you listen to the Mule!"

Someone posted this video of our Friday evening performance in the Old-Time Band competition at the Old Fiddler's Convention in Galax last week.

The band is New River Bound, and the tune is "Red Steer"... oh, and Caleb's fiddle is cross-tuned in A to play this one. It's a crooked little jig, but lots of fun to play. (as if you couldn't tell by watching us!)  ;D


Eventually I'll get some video of Saturday night too.  ;)

Thanks fellas. Yeah, those young folks keep me smiling too. :D

I really do enjoy their company, so getting to play music with them is a bonus. More later...

This evening I watched the movie Marley, released in 2012.  I highly recommend it.  And the soundtrack is ... well, of course it is.

Right after watching the movie, I went out and sat on the front steps for a while, listening to the creek and the crickets, in celebration.

I have Marley on "My List"; maybe tonight I'll watch it (oh, wait, no - tonight we're catching Johnny & The Boomers at Sycamore Brews, Blues & Ribs Fest for our 33rd anniversary; make that tomorrow).

Looking around for more with Glenn Worf, ran across this one with another one of my musical heroes, Tony Rice:

Both links lead to Knopfler, Gregory - and I'm pretty sure (but not quite 100%) that's John Illsley on bass.

I thought so too Coz, (and was actually hoping it was Illsley) but that "A Night in London" lists Worf as bassist. Could be a goof, they do favor each other, both physically and musically.

PS- I fixed the link to Tony Rice too... was a sip of coffee short this morning.
