The Natalie Padilla was nice too!

your cash aint nothing but trash...



Steve Miller

I'd forgotten about that one Stef - Thanks! 

I love that song, and then found that old live version. Loved it even more

Wynton Marsalis, Hesitation...Ron Carter on bass

Just watched the new Showtime documentary "Hitsville: The Making of Motown".   It was available for free "On Demand" on my cable.   Wonderful story of Motown, told by Berry and Smokey themselves, as well as many others from the era.  And, which will certainly be appreciated here, Mr. Jameson is given his due.  Great stories behind the records that helped define the soundtrack of many of our youths.  Actual tape recordings of staff meetings in the 60's!  Almost two hours and well worth it!

Bill, tgo

I will second Bill's recommendation of a fine documentary, and suggest watching it in tandem with Standing In the Shadows of Motown, which is an in-depth look at the Funk brothers.

The Marsalis piece was very cool.  Here's the full lineup:

• Trumpet – Wynton Marsalis
• Saxophone – Branford Marsalis
• Bass – Ron Carter
• Drums – Tony Williams

The Come Together thing was interesting.  I can certainly see where travelling with just one instrument case instead of two could be of some benefit. 

We've had the Metropole Orkest on this thread recently, was watching the full Nina Simone tribute from the BBC Proms just now thanks to our trusty DVR, not much available online except Lisa Fischer doing I Loves You Porgy/Dido's Lament.

Nice; thanks Adriaan!  The Lament was gorgeous.

been listening alot to Camel"s live version of "Skylines"and Zappa in New York

I really liked what these guys were doing about 10 years ago. Played through this whole album last night, and this tune stuck in my head.

The Zac Brown was nice..."enjoy the ride".



Going to see King Crimson this week, should be fun...
