For your pleasure...

Well, I wanted to do a nice little entry on Roxy Music today. I listened to a good chunk of my RM collection. But, that life... it just keeps pullin' ya in all different directions. So, once again, I've dug out a video from something from one of those records. This one's from 1976, performed in Stockholm.



Albums listened to since last post; "Full House", "Bloodshot" (J. Geils Band), "Mercy" (Steve Jones), "New Orleans Heat" (Albert King), "Secrets" (Robert Palmer), "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn", "Ummagumma" (Pink Floyd), "For Your Pleasure", "Stranded", "Country Life", "Siren" (Roxy Music), "Melting Pot" (Booker T. and the MG's).Total listened to: 111. To go: 577 (335 days).

24 hours at a time...

Good evening, music lovers! I'm getting close to catching up on my blog entries here. I still need to drop the needle a buncha more times. Today's blog video is from the Marshall Tucker Band. Southern Rock that tended to go in a more Country - Jazz direction. Brothers Toy and Tommy Caldwell anchored this band from Spartenburg, SC through the 70's. Tommy passed away shortly after the release of "Running Like the Wind". The video is from 1975 at Charlie Dainel's Volunteer Jam. Charlie joins in with some mean fiddle playing. Dig it;




You can also find an absolutely epic version of this song on their "Where We All Belong" album. Groovin' right along...

Albums listened to since last post; "Marshall Tucker Band", "Searchin' for a Rainbow", "Long Hard Ride", "Carolina Dreams", "Running Like the Wind", "Together Forever" (Marshall Tucker Band), "Not of This Earth" (Joe Satriani), "The Tubes", "Blind Faith". Total listened to: 99. To go: 589.
