Cornet. Lovely. And what a cool tuba. The little dancing girl has excellent taste. :)

New to me artist. Maybe visited the crossroads? adderall? definitely collagen.

seriously tho, the man is connected.

 

 

One New River, the new album from Knopfler, is out today.  I just downloaded.  Big fan, but while his style doesn’t vary dramatically, i do find that some albums become “best of all time” category for me, and others just barely get listened to.

Interesting...I like Knopfler...had a chance to see him just a couple of years ago here in Sugar Land south of Houston.  He's quite the story teller and has a massive group of musicians with him.  I'll have to give the new album a listen now...hopefully it's a good one!

Ragpickers Dream, Sailing to Philadelphia, and Shangri-La fit my taste nicely, though like a good album (or albums) should be, the stuff I did'nt prefer at first then grew on me, and the stuff that had a "hook" on the first listen then faded. 

common them for many artists (no big secret there), and for me as a listener, to have the hook songs get you to "sign up", so that you'll maybe then develop a taste for the other tracks.  I flew some well known musicians around on tour in years past, and I remember commenting to one of them about a great new song he played for the first time at a show, in prep for the next album release, and he said "ya, thats the hook, and i find it boring, but hopefully people will then listen to the stuff i'm actually proud of if they buy the album for that hook".

I found all those Knopfler albums good enough to play in the background while working on remodeling my home years ago, but then later after having it as background music, I only then realized "damn, this is really good".  But not for all his music...

studio version has more of a "hook" with the clean lead-in percussion, but this is good -

I don't know if I proposed this one before, but it sure feels familiar...

Saw The Rolling Stones last night here in Houston!  Opening night of the Hackney Diamonds tour…last time they were here was 2019…great show, cool set list and a sold Out crowd!  If you want to see a young version of what Tina Turner sounded like you should see this show for the backup singer Chanel…what a voice!!

Mick was amazing as always…Ronnie still strutting and Keef sort of low key but enjoying himself!

I hope some of you guys get to see them on this tour…what fun!! IMG_3642.jpeg

I hate to sound OLD . I love the Stones but the price of tickets , I wouldn't pay that much to have them in my backyard and they better finish by 7 o'clock because I'm goin' to bed or until they sing Monkey Man !

I liked the Rolling Stones until the 70's, they were never high on my list. Maybe I was too young to like them :D

Same for the Beatles.

However, I liked The Who, Ten Years After, Led Zeppelin and of course, Jimi Hendrix.

Mick's gesticulations never did anything much. I love Keith's riffs though! he really was a genius to find those licks and hooks.

Did not fancy U2 either, but Simple Minds, Simply Red, yes!

They are the world's greatest Rock n Roll band.

That’s a bold statement - longevity for sure but they aren’t that good

Raw Rock n Roll as it should be?

Not many would argue against AC/DC
