So a little further up the thread I linked a couple cover medleys by a project group put together by Martin Miller.  I finally listened to their Toto medley just now, and it's pretty great too.


The bass player gets to shine a bit more here, as do all the musicians.

Wow, that is a boat load of talent in that room.... listened to a whole lot more of their stuff, brilliant.

The Toto medley was very nice to listen to. Those guys are great and it looked like they were having a lot of fun.

I don't know if many of you like this kind of thing, but I thought I would share this particular video because the two musicians "play together for the very first time, unrehearsed, improvised live and filmed"; and the result is wonderful.


Peter Kater - piano; Tina Guo - cello.


I've listened to Peter Kater's recordings for a number of years, but just found this video and was surprised that it was unrehearsed and improvised.

"Feels Like Crying" was especially nice.

Fascinating, how each left just enough space for the other. I've often described music as a language, and a particular piece being played as a conversation. Some are written out, rehearsed and performed to perfection, others are spoken in cadence, and some are completely improvised.

I was out weeding and it is hot, muggy and just plain old funky.

This popped into my head and it never gets old:

Willie Weeks y’all

I dont think I've heard anything from him I didn't like. But, going through some of his recent stuff i often see that organ player he has and am equally thrilled by him, as well.  They're all really talented.

edit: just noticed that was post 13,000 David. Zoiks!! :D if that was your last post, that is.
