Palma been seeing Taj Mahal every time I can live. Love his visits in win the stones. Seen a few live in Chicago.

If y’all are bored there is an excellent video out there of the stones crashing a muddy waters club date. Drunkenness and appearances by buddy guy etc.

The stones are truly talented

Sadly, for as long as Taj lived in Hawaii, I only got to see him live, once. And that was back in ‘70 or ‘71 when he opened for the Chambers Brothers (“...time has come today, young hearts can go their way...”).

I’ve had a bootleg copy of Muddy and the Stones for a few years but the video and audio ain’t so good. My copy is also incomplete as it starts in the midst of “Baby, Please Don’t Go” when the Stones arrive at the club and work their way to their table. I should look into picking up the official release....

saw Taj (Springfield MA guy) in a mesmerizing solo stint in Syracuse late 1971/early 1972. Setting was a tiny room, about 35 hippies on the floor, like a large living room.
His show that night was like a lecture/concert...he was teaching as he played and it was awesome.

just remembered the name of the place. Jabberwocky. Gonna research it, will probably be saddened to read it held 250,000 people.

Stephen Stills - self-titled first solo album

“Old Times Good Times” and “Go Back Home” with Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton, respectively, are my favorite cuts.

69F / 80% RH / 14 mph - a little bit of sun, little bit of rain, rain coming on Thursday

Gracias.

Was just watching a documentary last night about the rise and fall of the Clash. Unfortunately I started late so it was just the depressing fall half of things

That was followed by a Dropkick Murphys concert in Dublin returning mebto my former elevated spirits

The Cars - Candy-O

Didn’t realize that 10 of the 11 songs are under 4 minutes. They’ll never be confused for a jam band. 😎

70F / 87% RH / 24 mph - another overcast, mostly rainy day

Led Zep Plagerism....very interesting video about the music they claimed without giving the originals credit....really cool to hear how some Led Zep tunes were intended to sound
I much prefer what LZ did with them...

Rick James - Street Songs

Palama, any chance there's some Mynah Birds in that massive library of yours? There was no studio album, but I'll bet there's some bootlegs or demos somewhere. The idea of Rick James and Neil Young has intrigued me for a some time. Dud find a small few on YouTube

Oh dude!

Never heard of the Mynah Birds so Googled it and read about them. Eventually led to more reading about Rick James. Which then led to YouTubing stuff like this:

I don’t know that I would seek out the Motown releases with their recordings but totally cool to learn some music history. Thanks!
