WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO NOW?

Leonard Cohen   In my opinion has the ability to transverse multiple genres of accessibility in reaching an audience with his lyric composition. I am being influenced and inspired by his lyrics within my recent lyric writing Avalanche in a different genre. I love this tune. Likewise, I can relate to it !  The video is effective as well to warm our emotions, that : Help is on the way !
Saved by the Dogs ! 📣

Stuck in the middle with you  - Stealers Wheel. it's a song that was in my head when I woke this morning and co-incidentally was playing in the supermarket on my visit there this evening.

ED of H:  Remember your Nashville days.  Hear it in numbers and intervals.  The little turnarounds are simply major scale walk-ups, 2-3-4, then coming back under 6-7-1 back to the 1, with an octave up tag.  The rest of it he's riffing under the mostly 1-4 chord structure off a pentatonic scale, I hear a lot of 1-5-6-1 bounces under the verses.

Sing the part in your head, then it will sync right up with the drum cues.  BTW, I do believe that 2nd guitar is actually Christine, or like most 'live' records, they may have come back and OD'd a few extra parts . . . . . I'd believe this definitely started off as keyboard riffs from Christine they fleshed out into a tune.

Right on, and Thanks Joey!

I've about got this one whipped. I just had to let go and listen. There's a guy on TalkBass who's really good at sussing out McVie lines, (lives near me too) so I pinged him. He charted out Bare Trees for me last year.

You might be right about that second guitar being Chris' keys too. I don't think the guitars are overdubs. I don't even recognize this live recording... it's quite exciting to hear! At 1975, that's very early Buckingham in Fleetwood Mac, and he was still trying very hard to emulate his predecessors, (did a fine job here too, copping Danny's slide licks without a slide) then towards the end, he just lets loose. I cant tell if this is the Blasterized Strat, but it sorta' sounds more like his Les Paul... don't have that good an ear for guitars yet.

If I get bold, I might post this one afterwhile.

I pull this up and watch it at least once a year.   I just sent it to my brother who turns 71 today.  He had tickets to Woodstock, but got discouraged by all the traffic, turned around and went home.  To add insult to injury, he doesn’t even have the unused tickets as my dad mailed them to the NY Attorney General and told him he should get my brother’s back (which, of course, never happened).    So enjoy this clip in which closed captioned lyrics are provided for the “clear-headed”.

Warning: extremely humorous content included!

Bill, tgo

Reading the sub-titles reveals that I really never knew the proper lyrics to that song.

For some horrible and inexplicable reason, this morning my brain was invaded by "The Piña Colda Song".  Now, Rupert Holmes was always a hack - but he wasn't always a pathetic wuss, and, in my teen years, I was a bit of a fan of his stuff.  So I decided to cleanse my aural memory with some of his earlier stuff, as done by The Buoys:

My gal-pal in sudden Cal sent me this one this morning. Said sh had woke up hearing dulcimer music today. I promised her; it was not me. 

Folkie joke:

Q: How long does it take to tune a hammer dulcimer?
A: Nobody knows.......
