WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

[David Houck]

Thanks Paul; I've fixed the Barbara Thompson link.

The Tedeschi Trucks video opens with Branford standing in the horn section with Lea and the others as if he's just another member of the band.  Her joy at being in that band is certainly understandable.

And I love the way that tune opens.

Very cool!  Thanks!

You're welcome. The show was an enjoyable find. I think you can really hear the maturity in his voice now.  It's an inspiration that  we can age and still do what we enjoy. And, it sure did look like he was having fun.

[David Houck]

An interesting place to stick the horn section.   

Yes, and it's a good band.

[StefanieJones]

The acoustics in that place are amazing, too. And yes, the poor horn section. -__-;

Just finished watching.  Wonderful close as they end with Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End.

And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make

+1 on the McCartney.
The audience!  :-D

Just saw that band Sunday - without Branford though. Killer band.

This appears to be an arrangement of Classical Gas.  And quite an impressive performance.

[hankster]

I give up.

I'm going back to bed.   


But later today, I'll be listening to 3 discs worth of Dead & Company at Alpine Valley (Night 1), while traveling to Danville, Virginia to play a show myself. That ought to cover the trip to, and from. Not counting the obligatory Waffle House stop.

At risk of starting an argument, and keeping in mind here that I'm kinda' new to Grateful Dead music, at the tender age of <gulp> 49... I rather like the sound of the Mayer/Burbridge Dead too. It's different for sure. Oteil is much more symmetrical in constructing bass parts than Phil, but I think he does a great job keeping the spirit of the original there. And John Mayer has all he needs for the job. The only thing he isn't, is what he can't be. I like it.

I’ll be spending much of the day and evening at the Kensington Market Jazz Festival in Toronto. Live jazz in every restaurant and cafe in the Market, as well as great music for free on the streets. Few Alembic if any but lots of great players!
