When I was in the hospital for a week in 1980, a family friend brought me this 2 record album which I eventually played so much that I wore it out. Now I have it on CD and it still sounds just as good almost 30 years later.

Willie and Family Live:

Kate, It sounds like I would have liked to visit the Riverhead Blues Festival.

Rob

I would have liked to visit the Riverhead Blues Festival.

I know you would have enjoyed the Festival. The musc was great , the food smelled good, the beer was flowing, and the weather was absolutly perfect.
Willie Nelson is one of my favorites. I really enjoy his music.He keeps me company when I'm drivin long distance. Did you ever see the clip of him when he was first starting out? He appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show. He had short hair and wore a suit and tie . Man did he ever evolve!

I got to see Willie and Waylon about 13 years ago with my dad.

Love that one too Rob, Used to play blues harp, played in a couple blues bands with friends back in the 80"s. I was searching for something from briefcase full of blues like " Doing my best to get back to you " ( Delbert McClinton ) prolly spelled that wrong, but did'nt see it.

Another one of my favorite blues masters

Recent version of "My Wife" by The Who, written by my favorite bass player, John Entwistle:

My life's in jeopardy
Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be
I ain't been home since Friday night
And now my wife is coming after me

Give me police protection
Gonna buy a gun so
I can look after number one
Give me a bodyguard
A back belt Judo expert with a machine gun

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane
When she catches up with me
Won't be no time to explain
She thinks I've been with another woman
And that's enough to send her half insane
Gonna buy a fast car
Put on my lead boots
And take a long, long drive
I may end up spending all my money
But I'll still be alive

All I did was have a bit too much to drink
And I picked the wrong precinct
Got picked up by the law
And now I ain't got time to think

Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane
When she catches up with me
Won't be no time to explain
She thinks I've been with another woman
And that's enough to send her half insane
Gonna buy a fast car
Put on my lead boots
And take a long, long drive
I may end up spending all my money
But I'll still be alive

And I'm oh so tired of running
Gonna lay down on the floor
I gotta rest some time so
I can get to run some more

She's comin'!
She's comin'!

Those guys is pretty darned good for a bunch of old guys. Ringo Jr ain't bad either.

Max Roach died today. Here is a nice video that showcases his drumming. Nice bass/drum combo from ~4 minute point to ~6 minutes, then drum solo from there on to ~9 minutes. If you like jazz, this one is worth watching and listening to.

Max looks like he's driving a car. He made it look easy.

I just started listening to this guy...Found out James Blunt was a Captin in the British Army and wrote this during his active duty in Kosovo...Amazing song considering what he saw.

Wow, Trask. Thanks. I'd categorized James Blunt among the other "poppy" lovesong singer-songwriters. After watching that performance, there is no doubt in my mind that he has depth and I'll be looking at his stuff with a whole new ear.
