LowRyter Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Leon. The Master of Space and Time. Saw him last for his 70th Bday in Tulsa. Still love his music and have his hits on my playlist. Jumpin Jack Flash/Youngblood. Stranger in Strange Land. Song for You. Hummingbird. And then his country side, Hank Wilson, Rolling in my Sweet Baby's Arms. They're restoring the Church Studio in Tulsa now. It should be open to the public this summer. https://thechurchstudio.com/ Leon and Tulsa were the center of the universe for 15 minutes or so in the 1970s. In fact, it's still there in one small spot. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/the-center-of-the-universe-tulsa-oklahoma 1

po18guy Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 For those times when I am out of coffee and I feel like some good old nonsense. 2

He played & produced with everyone from Sinatra to Dylan. This gets pretty funny at 3:00 (if you wanna skip over Cher) 2
andy york Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 I would suggest playing through a good system...your computer speakers just will not do this justice 1
biesel Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 A great Neil Peart tribute by the The United States Army Band "Pershing's Own": 1

docc Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Rather expert thread dredging, there, NEWELL! After Jaap posted this, I got the chance to be there when these guys toured through Nashville. It was frikkn' awesome! I've been a fan of them ever since. Pretty interesting, some of the "interpretations" of other music I never liked at the time. (I jus' wanna apologize for this in advance . . .) [edit: this is the Ac/DC song I was looking for that , I think, compares with Steve 'n' Seaguls "Thunderstruck"] . . .
Lucky Phil Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 This is good on a few levels. Esp if you appreciate a good looking woman blowing a harp Ciao 1
LowRyter Posted February 19, 2020 Posted February 19, 2020 Well if you're talkin' roots and country. I saw this pair a few years ago. When they did "Black Dog" a cappella, I thought it was funny. I still play this record quite a bit. My neighbor was at the same show for the gospel inspiration. He said Robert couldn't harmonize with anyone but came to see Allison. I love this album.
docc Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Wow, never thought about, or listened to, The Waifs. Too cool! Thanks, L'ky-Phil!! I let myself down their yootoob rabbit hole. There are some delightful performances, including "Crazy Train" at "The Basement" posted in 2010. Is that Nashville (Music City), Tennessee, or is that somewhere else in the world?
