    An episode of Drunk History reminded me how good Sam Cooke was. I had him and Guy Clark (an odd mix) on a playlist while I was working in the garage.

    It's his playing on "A Remark You Made", written by Zawinul performed with Weather Report that has stuck with me.
    It's a beautiful performance by the group, but Wayne's part is stunning.

    Both amazing artists. Which reminds me, if you haven’t heard Wilson Pickett and Duane Allman do “Hey Jude”, you’re missing out. No less than Eric Clapton called it the best guitar solo ever.

    Proposing that the two of'em cover Hey Jude was a stroke of genius (though some present apparently thought it nuts); the session when that happened at FAME is noted in the documentary Muscle Shoals (an absolute must see for relevant music aficionados) and the cut is on the "Duane Allman, an Anthology" album (a must have). The photoshoot was right here in Tally, out at the FSU Rez, Lake Bradford; out-takes and photos used are about half way down this webpage: https://www.popspotsnyc.com/Allman_B...s_First_Album/

    Clarence Carter's "The Road of Love" (same album) hits it out of the park, too; what a powerful singer; and the life stories of these folks is just mind bending.

    Picking up the sticks not quite two years ago has been amazing on it's own; but the documentaries and life histories of folks like these guys, which the drums led me to discover, are even more amazing and rewarding.

    I have been meaning to watch the Muscle Shoals docu since I started keeping a list during covid. Need to do that before baseball season.

    And that Duane album is an absolute stunner. I have it in iTunes but curiously on Spotify “Hey Jude” is greyed out but you can find it under Wilson Pickett.

    Isn't it though!
    I Once had it in vinyl; now have it on CD.
    If you've never seen the album photos, check'em out at the page I linked.

    Yeah, def watch it. It kinda rocked my world. Anybody seriously interested in music and the arc of the lives of others, particularly in the music genre, should watch it. It's an incredible musical and cultural history framed by the Civil Rights era. It should be part of university curricula.

    Glad you enjoyed it.

    I watched it again last night for probably the 6th time. I can't imagine being there, watching and listening to the birth of what came out of that building, from those people; how amazing that they shot some film at the time. Every artist in the documentary could turn me to jelly....but the scenes where the whole place ground to a halt, stuck in quicksand with Aretha on "I Ain't Never Loved a Man", everybody scratching their heads and coming up with nothing, Spooner Oldham just diddling away on the keys....then suddenly he hit that chord progression; and Aretha's rocketship left Earth...if that cut doesn't do something to ya, get into your gut, you're probably dead.

    This two-part Laurel Canyon documentary is pretty special too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurel_Canyon_(TV_series)

    David Lindley. He died the other day. He came to the Van Dyck in Schenectady several years ago. He played a great show, featuring those ouds he could get the most amazing sounds from. Them this was his last song and he stepped off the stage and walked upstairs and was done. I about fell out of my chair.

    Gary Rossington died today, the last surviving founding member of Lynyrd Skynyrd. By coincidence I saw this today:

    Weval's song "Someday" is pretty great, and someone made an amazing video for it with actual pictures/video, not CGI:



    Learning yesterday that they released a new album is why I had to watch that again, and linking to my favorite song from it taught me now that they have a neat visualizer for that song:

    Clyde Stubblefield and Jab'o Starks, The Soul of the Funky Drummer. I'm putting the technique books away for a while to watch and learn from guys like Clyde, Jab'o....and Roger Hawkins; on the "Duane Allman an Anthology" album is the Boz Scaggs cut Loan Me a Dime; the way they turned warm water to a simmer, to a slow boil and finally to a rolling boil gives me goose bumps; and basically unknown little Roger Hawkins' drumming was the locomotive. He was perfect; added what was needed, where it was needed, no more, no less and pulled that freight train home like nobody's biz.

    No recent recommendation here.
    I did take a look at the National Recording Registry listing from 2002 till present.
    I was surprised to see that only two genres were quickly recognized relative to their public exposure.
    The Wailers and Public Enemy were recognized in a much shorter time frame than most.
    I do think those two genres took off quicker than I expected.
    It's an interesting list of treasured recordings.
    Check it out if you will.

    I love all of Maren Morris’s stuff but if my kids had their way we’d listen to “Rich” on repeat all day, at ever louder and louder volume.

    My latest vinyl+digital purchase.

    Old but new to me (and most of the world) music as Najib Alhoush music expansion out of the border was quite limited by the Gaddafi Regime who jailed him, made him disband and kind of forced him to quit music for a while.
