Esperanza Spalding's cover of Wayne Shorter's Endangered Species was great; thanks!

The piece by Mark Schatz was nice.  Kind of reminded me of how I practice sometimes; sparse, focused on simple melodic structures within a limited area of the scale, which I need to do more of.

Here's my friend, Beth Quist, singing Kashmir:

Wow, loved her interpretation; and the part at the end where she goes up really high, sustaining the energy level through the highest note, and bringing it back down again, that really got my attention.  Very cool.  Was listening on cheap headphones; will listen again on the stereo when I get a chance.

Loved the Mark Schatz piece, reminded me of Telluride and Winter Hawk festivals of long ago 

Eagles, On The Border

This may be a repost... Starcastle - Lady of the Lake.

Enjoyed the Ron Carter; thanks!

One of my favorite shows, 2/15/73...the Dark Star is great!

@Peter that track by Peter Tosh is a superb version and the lead guitar playing and solo (Donald Kinsey i think) is one of the most exciting guitar solos i have heard on a reggae song. A great song to be listening to.

That album had Darryl Thompson as well as Kinsey on lead guitar; don't know which that solo is.

Just watched the two Hawktail videos Gregory posted above; very nice.  Their compositions are always intriguing.

Tony Rice - "8th of January" from his self-titled 1977 album.



Was just discussing this album yesterday evening with a guitar-playing buddy of mine who is laid up recovering from shoulder surgery. Quite a few guys playing on here that went on into legendary status... David Grisman on mandolin, Richard Greene and Darol Anger on fiddles, Todd Phillips on bass, Jerry Douglass on resonator guitar. I guess to be fair, by '77, they were a good ways down the road.

And for those thinking the basic theme sounds familiar, remember - the Battle of New Orleans was fought on Jan. 8.

Hadn't heard On The Border in a while; thanks!
