Zac Brown Band, from a couple-three years ago "Quiet Your Mind" :
This tune has a very interesting twist in the time signature at 2:01... I'm not really sure how to count it. (12 or 6/8 ?) The emphasis is in an odd place.

The emphasis sounds to me to be on the downbeat, a six note phrase beginning on each downbeat.  The first six note phrase begins on the three of the scale; thus 3-1-2-3-1-2.  The next phrase is 3-4-3-3-2-1.  The third is 6-5-4-3-4-5.  The last is 6-3-2-4-3-2, where the 6 is below the 1.  Or that's my guess in listening to it phrase by phrase; I haven't tried to play it.

Thanks for your ears Dave.  ;)

I actually have tried it. The tune is in C# / Db, which adds a little to the headgame, but it's just so irresistible.  For whatever reason ZBB records virtually everything a half-step flat or sharp... I've often wondered if J.D. Hopkins tuned his bass up or down, or just played them at standard pitch.

A beautiful Uncle John's Band.  Alpine Valley 1989.  Today, this touched me deeply; and for that, I am most grateful.

David, is this the ‘89 link to Uncle Jonh’s?  Nice version!


Your link goes to a Friend of the Devil.

After listening to Friend of the Devil from the Phil thread (delicious)!
This one showed up in the side bar...
Widespread Panic and Tedeschi Trucks doing Can't Always Get...

No apologies - Tedeschi Trucks with anyone is a treat.

That was very cool!  Thanks!  Jimmy's solo brought to mind the solo section in Blue Sky; very nice.
