WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

[David Houck]

I have some catching up to do.

The Florencia Horita was very nice.  She has the tone of that style dialed in and knows the licks.

Grateful Dead - 5/19/77; "The Wheel"

...still listening my way through the stack, I keep coming back to this time. That must have been one fine tour to see. I hear a lot of similarities between this version and the Dead & Co. take of the tune from this past Summer.

I was planning to go to bed early tonight, but then this happened:

The Mule does Pink Floyd

Not pro-shot, and some of the cameras are not synced with the sound, but the main camera is synced and the sound is good; and it's Government Mule doing Pink Floyd.  I doubt I'll watch the whole thing tonight, but so far, it's pretty good.  Doesn't sound nothing like Pink Floyd or David Gilmour, but it's not supposed to.  It has, however, put a smile on my face.

Finally got around to finishing listening to the whole show (some times life....).
I enjoyed it and am always impressed with Matt Abts.

I should get out more... stumbled upon this:

Jerry Douglas, Edgar Meyer and Russ Brandenburg.

Guess who is going cd shopping?

That "Skip, Hop, & Wobble" album is one of my all-time favorite instrumental projects ever, Paul. Great stuff. I'll have to dig that one out and give it a spin today. Edgar's bass solo on "Ankara to Izmir" floored me the first time I heard it, and still does every time. Here they are doing that tune live. (quite a few years ago!)

[David Houck]

The Douglas, Meyer, and Brandenburg was nice; thanks!

If you ever get a chance to see Edgar Meyer live, do not miss it! He's astounding. There's a reason he's banned from entering fiddle competitions on the upright. He always wins!

Pauldo, cool stuff!  I saw them at the Boulder Theater when that album came out, recorded the show too, I’ll have to dig up that tape!

Greg, have you heard this version of The Wheel?  It’s from a Garcia album, it’s my favorite version. I love the pedal steel and doubling of his vocals,  great with headphones

[David Houck]

The original Wheel is pretty special.

[edwardofhuncote]

That is a nice tune, Rob. Guessing Jerry played the pedal steel?

The lyrics are timely too... I'm just starting to try to play again. I can't remember ever taking this much time off from playing, but today marked the first time I've tried to practice since the operation - a little past a month ago.

Gregory, allow yourself to not practice (if necessary). 

From experience...  Frustrated practicing can be worse than no practice.

Billy played drums on that album; everything else was Jerry.

Came across this girl on Instagram.

Hah!  She's better than a lot of drummers I played with.

RIP Roy Clark.


Another side of Roy.


And one more.
