TexasToest: OMG How funky fantastic was that! I never knew Phil Collis could play drums like that! I really really enjoyed that, it was brilliant, feel all tribal now!!

Harpsichord is always an interesting instrument to hear, so here is one at the hands of a master.

The piece is one I play on piano, and have always wanted to try it on a harpsichord.  It has some complicated audial areas, with some really soothing resolution.  See what you think.

awesome:  How does he DO that?

Jim Dandy:

everyone else was a distant 2nd......

I just don't want the guy to die, or maybe I'm STILL in denial.  Anyway, this starts out with Emmy Lou and Steve Earle doing the song that keeps weaseling it's way into my head, and heart.  The cool part about this piece is that Townes keeps popping up live.  And, it's not the clown-like Townes in those interviews out of Austin, this is the Townes onstage as I knew him, raven black hair, a haunted look on his face, singing from waaaaay deep inside of him. 

The second part is Emmy Lou and Willie Nelson (with a big smile from Lyle Lovett) doing Pancho and Lefty.  Townes pays another visit here, and he's still the Townes who appeared every now and then in my life, and gave me something to love for an hour or so.

I hope you enjoy this too -- Tribute to Townes

Jim Dandy:  He IS fantastic!  He has the most supple wrists in the world, I think.

TexasToest: That wuz some hot stuff,I'm pretty sure he wuz duel'n with Chester Thompson,a longtime Genesis sideman.When Collins was strictly a drummer,few if any could touch him

For  everybody, but especially for you, Jim the Dandiest

Jim Dandy:  Thank you, thank you!  I needed some Dead tonight.

I found it in a google,enjoy!!!

awesome: Donovan was such a talent,I was turned off by the use of "Mellow Yellow" in a margerine ad campain years ago,not sure if it was his decision.

Some of you may remember an old made for tv movie called "go ask alice" at the time it scared me from both hippies and drugs.I was left to think long haired freaks would chase me down to inject me with heroin.This song featured prominantly in the "freak out" scene,it was years before I learned who recorded it,I loved the song.About a month or so before Brent Maydland of The Dead od'd, I caught them just outside town.The encore was a deliciose marriage of DEAR MR. FANTASY and HEY JUDE,I had never heard anything so beautiful.I can't find another version of that delightful mix,but........

Jim Dandy:  Did Chicago lose something?  You know I'm totally ignorant when it comes to sports, and that's the only thing I can think that little  Chicago number was about.  After Rixy Music, I felt like my eart had been ripped out of my chest and eaten.  But, McCartney brought it back to me whole, and sewed it back in.

SEAWOLF2:  WE'RE ABOUT ANYTHING TONIGHT.  i'VE ASKED RADIANT WHEN SHE WANTS TO DO THIS MESSIANIC THING, BUT I HAVEN'T HEARD BACK.  WE MAY HAVE LET THE TIME PASS, AND HAVE TO WAIT ON THAT ONE. 

BLUES IS JUST GREAT ANYTIME.  THOSE GUYS WERE GOOD!!!  OF COURSE YOU CAN BLOW ON A SAXOPHONE IN MY EAR, AND I'LL FOLLOW YOU ANYWHERE.  AND THERE'S NOTHING BETTER THAN A STAND-UP BASS PLAYED WELL..

NOT SURE WHAT NIGHT THIS IS, BUT I HOPE IT'S OKAY TO POST A LITTLE BIT OF "BLUES" TONIGHT?

HERE'S A WELL-KNOWN NEW ENGLAND BORN BLUES BAND CALLED "ROOMFUL OF BLUES".
