That Haas, Kowert, & Tice video was some good stuff.

And a nice Melissa indeed.

Peter that was a jem, always loved that song and that version with the bookends of those that are gone really hits the mark.

Meanwhile, Roger Waters has a new release, this is called Deja Vu.  Ironically a rather appropriate tune for Mr. Waters . . . and I am ok with that.

Todd Rundgren and Donald Fagen, kinda has that Steely Dan groovy swing with Rundgren's poignant lyrics.

.  Somewhat similar to free form jazz.

New River Bound just started working on this tune Friday night. "To Ohio" by The Low Anthem:



I wasn't familiar with them, but the tune really works for us. Interesting instrumentation too.

Listened to The Low Anthem tune and another by them.  I like their approach to instrumentation and timbre.

Gregory, thank you for that - I am now a fan. 

This is a live performance that shows their depth of old and new technology.

Nice tune, reminds me of Long Black Veil in a way.

Hot Rize - Untold Stories

OK, that's it - next time I can't sleep I'm watching vid The Low Anthem has up!

Loved Hot Rize (still do!) back then. First band I was ever in, we did almost their whole catalog. 3rd generation bluegrass at it's best. 

Spent some quality time last night, playing the new Custom fretless along with Alison Krauss' "Windy City" album. Barry Bales, (her longtime bassist in Union Station) is a MONSTER player anyway, but he just nails  the bass parts in these classic country tunes.



One more:

Listened to Sgt. Peppers 50th anniversary release with headphones . . . .  speechless.

In Washington DC to meet with US Dept of State about disability rights and while taking a walk during the evening just happened to walk in to a concert by the Marine band on the grounds of the Capitol. Certainly not what I typically listen to but the band did a great job with everything from John Phillip Sousa ("Manhattan Beach) to Danse Bacchanale from Samson et Dalila, to the Overture to Tsar Boris.
