This appears to be an arrangement of Classical Gas.  And quite an impressive performance.


:o

I'm going back to bed.   ;D


But later today, I'll be listening to 3 discs worth of Dead & Company at Alpine Valley (Night 1), while traveling to Danville, Virginia to play a show myself. That ought to cover the trip to, and from. Not counting the obligatory Waffle House stop.



A little late, but have an extra waffle for me, lol. I miss  Waffle House. There are none up this way (Jersey.) It's been a few years since I was down in Waffle House country. -__-

My wife sent me this video link... I believe there is a subliminal message there.  She is at the farm and I am stuck in the land of concrete and steel.

Wilco with one of my man crushes on guitar - Nels Cline

David Houck

If you're a Nels Cline fan, I guess you're familiar with this:

Never been a huge Wilco fan - but I don't think my youngest son's ever been more impressed by me than when I told him I knew Jeff Tweedy's wife......

Not at all!  ???
That was ethereal. Love the ensemble, bonus with his twin on drums.

My first introduction to him was when he was touring with Mike Watt on his Shinebox Tour.  This skinny guy gets up on stage with a small toolbox and starts playing his guitar with different tools.  Nothing like Lovers (he uses that electronic tone bender thing these days).  Been a fan ever since, his solo in Impossible Germany is still one of my top ten favorite guitar solos of all time.


Regardless of genre, his style is so him... the phrasing is almost spastic at times but full of emotion.  Somewhere I have a dvd, Stained Radiance -  Nels and Norton Wisdom feed of each other's improvisational skills.  The weird part is Norton is a painter.  You get yourself in the proper mood with a glass of scotch and what not and it is truly enjoyable.

Admittedly my wife has been a Wilco fan since their inception... I was kinda meh about them.  Until Nels, he brings a certain energy to the group that makes me a late blooming fan.

I'm getting an error message on the Scott Law video.

I could see it... love that tune. :)  I was kinda' sorry we didn't do it last night. :(

Like I posted yesterday, I was listening 3 discs containing the entire Night 1 Alpine Valley Dead & Co. show from last June. This "China Doll" had a profound effect on me, driving home from a gig through the rain last night.

*particularly the delivery, and the bass parts - by the same guy.

The Scott Law video worked for me.  I thought it was from Atlantic City.  That's the tune, it was recorded at Phil's Terrapin Crossroads.

Bill, tgo

David Houck

It still won't open for me; I even tried finding it with a search, and it still wouldn't work.  I guess it's just something I don't need to see right now.  Maybe later.

David Houck

I finally got Atlantic City to play - in a different browser.  So at the moment it appears to be an issue with my Chrome.  Maybe it will resolve itself when I restart the machine tomorrow.

Another Youtube recommendation-

Joe Pass and Ella Fitzgerald, "Duets in Hannover", 1975-

I was planning to go to bed early tonight, but then this happened:



Not pro-shot, and some of the cameras are not synced with the sound, but the main camera is synced and the sound is good; and it's Government Mule doing Pink Floyd.  I doubt I'll watch the whole thing tonight, but so far, it's pretty good.  Doesn't sound nothing like Pink Floyd or David Gilmour, but it's not supposed to.  It has, however, put a smile on my face.
