Still following the current Vince Gill tour. He was playing a Les Paul Goldtop the other night... hard to say what the provenance is on this one. He's got a couple famous ones.

*Wendy Moten and Jeff White on the harmony singin' here. Killer band, all around.

In 1979 I attended The Recording Workshop (yeah, the one that used to advertise in Rolling Stone).  It's in Chillicothe, OH, home turf for Pure Prairie League, and one of the guest lecturers was John Call - he was sidelined by back trouble and thus was managing them at that point, instead of further proving that he's one of the best pedal steel players ever.


I'm a fan, so I went up and talked to him after, and he ended up offering me FOH on their next tour.


I didn't follow up, because 1) I wanted to get back to Chicago and get a studio gig (ended up working in Chi for 6 years - and doing exactly one studio session, with a band I was doing monitors for), and 2) Craig Fuller had left and they had a new guitarist/singer nobody had ever heard of, so what good would that do my career?
Yeah, it was Vince.......


Peter (who will freely admit that maybe that wasn't the best career decision he ever made)

Excellent. Tom Smothers too.

Mr. Tony Levin, ummmm, like groovin his face off 

I've never seen a video of Moby Grape before.  We used to listen to them when I was in high school.  Thanks!

Dig that Tony Levin. Thanks Q!

Found a tv channel showing old Ed Sullivan performances... very addictive.   Recall Mom and Dad watching the show, I was still pre-teen.   

This was smooooth.

Fell in a rabbit hole:



Tina's energy and that band!

NICE 

Wow.  Great rhythm section. 

Mind you, I don't get out much, but that version of Fire on the Mountain was truly special.

Yes, I saw them do the same thing with Olatunji and friends two months later at the Capitol Theater, here is that show

Listening to Rocking the Cradle now - Phil's bass tone.🥰
