LowRyter Posted December 9, 2017 Posted December 9, 2017 Docc, two things: First, I've been trying for someone, anyone, to give me a site for an LED replacement for my Guzzi(s). Whether an H4 or complete replacement headlight. Next, I've been able to purchase downloads of all the Dead & Co shows I've been to (Boulder in 2016, 2017 and Dallas 2017). I have even given CD copies away. http://livedead.co/?utm_medium=www&utm_source=deadandcompany.com And a "get well" to John Mayer that missed the last two shows on the tour to an appendectomy. . . . [docc/edit: gotcha covered on the LED lamp: check your pm.] 1
LowRyter Posted December 21, 2017 Posted December 21, 2017 The PHJB played at my college (back in '74). Very much Dixieland Jazz. They were so old that I would be surprised if they voted in the Carter election muchless Reagan's. Amazing chops those guys had. They just never lose it. I am glad the traditions still live on.
docc Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Ok, ok . . I have no idea where to post this video. It came to me through serendipity. There is no music. But, but-but . . . it is Billy Joel. Hendrix is mentioned . . . And, and-and: they pull out a failed voltage regulator from: Bruce Springsteen's (you guessed it): Moto Guzzi that BJ built for him (minute 2:50) ! Somebody, please, cue up a track that makes this make sense!
gstallons Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Terrific piece . Deanna & I love Billy Joel . "You May Be Right " is my fav. Well , on second thought " Piano Man " ....No wait.....
LowRyter Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 So I am listening to Dead & Co show I saw in Dallas in Dec. And it occurred to me that my Grandparents loved Lawrence Welk. Hell, the local PBS station plays ol' Lawrence Saturday evenings. So I'll be 64 this year. So here's my question of horror: Are the Dead just my version of Lawrence Welk? It ain't so horrible, I might be going to hell in a bucket but at least I am enjoying the ride.
docc Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 From what I understand, Lawrence Welk kept a great band. I recall some stories that he was a strict bandleader. So, maybe if *Larry* had picked up a Les Paul and jacked into a stage stack . . . 1
gstallons Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Chris Stapleton . WOW . I bought the Traveller cd and can't stop listening to it. and I don't care that much for country music. 3
docc Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Chris Stapleton . WOW . I bought the Traveller cd and can't stop listening to it. and I don't care that much for country music. Oh, man, this fresh crop of music coming from the "Roots-Americana" movement is inspiringly well written, well played , and well performed. This is not the glashy Korporate Kuntry. "Smooth as . . ." I noticed this comment on the YooToob page: "[An] Etta James I'd rather go blinde vibe"
footgoose Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Chris Stapleton . WOW . I bought the Traveller cd and can't stop listening to it. and I don't care that much for country music. Here's a great one not on Traveler, and has a thread appropriate title... Look up his stuff with The Steeldrivers too
LowRyter Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 I was playing Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit Nashville Sound ...sort of a preachy country-folk-art rock deal. The sound recording is a little bit Nashville too smooth. it's not bad, I am not sure why Bev picked it up. I like it on occasion.
docc Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 I like what Jerry Douglas is doing, adding horns and going uptempo . . . 1
footgoose Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 Jerry Douglass, probably the greatest steel player ever. Got a sound you can pick out of a recording he's just helping out on. And there's a lot of those.
LowRyter Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 I don't know to list this under "Rallys and Places" or "What to Listen to". The Dead & Co will end their summer tour in Boulder Co on 13-14 July. And "Seth's Rally", (Colorado BMW) Top O The Rockies, is the following weekend in Paonia Co. These are the same guys that put on the Guzzi National in Colorado a few years ago. So I am planning to do both for my summer trip to the mountains.
