Eric Lindell, Johnny Winter, Bankie Banx
Crucial music....the kind you don't leave home without....more specifically, crucial LIVE music...you know, it's harder to get live music that sounds like something you really wanta listen to...everybody wants to capture it, a few do it once in a career...here's my list:
#1 : Johnny Winter And...Live...since the '70's when I first heard this on 8 track, and heard Johnny Winter scream, "rock n roll!!!!!"...and go on into JohnnyBGoode.. his version will almost make you forget the Stones version of Jumpin' Jack Flash...
#2 : Allman Brothers 'Live at Fillmore East'....Whuppin' Post....'nuff said....jammin jammin...
#3 : Marshall Tucker Band 'Where We All Belong'....saxophone and flute in southern rock with a jazz feel and Toy Caldwell thumbing that Les Paul...Mr Doug Gray on vocals ladies and gentlemen, Mr Doug Gray...shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!...jammin jammin...
#4 : Jimi Hendrix 'Live at Wiinterland'... this just released cd set is what brought this up...MAN...you can get the la te da set for $9.99...pass it by and get the whole set for $29.99 or whatever it is...multiple versions of jams and sets and history in the makin'...I've been a Hendrix fan for a long time, and this has got me excited about music again....wooooowwww!
CRANK IT UP and imagine what it would have been like to be there!
Ok...whew...hang on, I'm putting Winterland on while I finish this entry....
Ok...let's talk about Eric Lindell and 'West County Drifter'...nono, it ain't live...I'm through talking about that...I just stumbled across this the other day and bought it....I really like this! I'm hesitant to say much as I'm just getting into it...mostly guitar, standup bass, and snare...vocals.....catchy tunes, lyrics rhythms...looks like from his website he tours quite a bit and I think they'd be cooler than hell to catch in a little club somewhere...surely they'll come somewhere close to lakelizardland, or at least Nashville...I'm keeping an eye out and an ear open...if you hear, let me know....and Eric Lindell, if you're reading this, let me know when you're in the area. I like it. (whoops, there goes a saxophone...)
...meanwhile.
If you haven't heard me talking about it yet, Dune Preserve beach bar in Anguilla has just been named #1 beach bar IN THE WORLD by CNN Travel...and that's the lizardkid and me with Bankie Banx, the proprietor of that very bar...yes, no matter how you say it, "that's cool." Thanks Bankie for your hospitality! Hope to soon come!
....she'll be comin' round the mountain....the road to realwork...
