That Carole King demo is great. My older sisters had a bunch of Monkees 45s when I was little. Loved the show too. I thought all bands lived in a house together, LOL! Plus they had a cool GTO.

Jorma has a promo clip for WMSE, they played it this afternoon and followed up with Water Song.   
Had me sitting in the truck in the driveway, had to listen until the end, neighbor wasn’t home from work yet, so it was played loud. ;D  Jack’s bass line is a favorite.

Redd Volkaert lives a quiet life of semi-retirement in neighboring Floyd County, occasionally drops in for a set at the Floyd Country Store, a local music venue. He's as amazing as ever, and the supporting band is tight.



The bass player here is a buddy of mine, Dylan Locke. Dylan is part-owner of the store there. The funniest part of that is how we met... I got a call one day from a guy on the way to a gig, he got my number from a local recording studio, and desperately needed his soundpost set. Got that... on the way to the gig? Okay, well I've done housecalls on basses, so I grabbed a couple tools... mirror, light, setter, retriever, string winder, and headed to meet Dylan at a Park & Ride. I set the soundpost in that bass there on the side of I-81. We still joke about it.

Man, those were nice; thanks, Greg!  Always up for Redd.
And I have enough trouble trying to play guitar; just thinking about pedal steel makes what's left of my brain explode!

AAHHHH!  Sweet!

Ya know, I have trouble with the fact (based on Jorma's memoir - which I cannot recommend - I did way more acid than he did.

Ya know, I am aware that Billy Strings is probably the best guitarist of his generation, but I have trouble taking him seriously when he's rockin' the Bieber do......
I can, however, overlook it for something that good!  And I love the guy with the 335's smile when Billy & Charlie are trading licks!

I was at the dead's first Alpine Valley show, 8/23/80.  I don't necessarily recall everything about the evening, but I do remember "The Music Never Stops" being indelibly burned into my DNA; I can't give you that one without giving you the whole show - but here's a nece one from a few years earlier:

Nice hybrid picking. I like how at moments he seems out of control but it turns out intentional.

And here we have the same band, the same song - but a different guest picker:

Sierra Hull and Justin Moses have performed together for quite a while... I'm imagining his honey-do list is a stack of very complicated music.

From Thomas Point in 2018-

Mikaela Davis & Suthern Star: 
And wouldn't it just be the whippet's dinkle to hear her jam with Taimane Gardner?

I lived and breathed this entire album when it came out. This particular tune came up in my weekly coffee/guitar/mandolin jam at First XI this morning. What a flashback!

I found this in a remainder bin at a record store in around 1976.   It looked interesting, I knew Vassar Clements from Old and in the Way, and I liked David Bromberg, so I thought I’d take a chance and bought it.   Blew my mind!  I’m still listening to it almost 50 years later!

Bill, tgo
