Aside from Long Gone Geek, my favorite Procol song is Whiskey Train.  Used to play it in one of my first bands.  It's a little something for the drummer, lol, not to mention the great guitar riffs.  We used an old empty bottle of JD.  I always thought it'd be a great song to cover and play live.  I was surprised at the time that nobody had covered it already.  Turns out, a few did, I must have missed it!

I still prefer the Trower version, just rocks.

Hmmm, didn't see this one, Leslie West version, interesting:

Nope, still like Trower the best, lol!



And that brings up another classic:

Robin Trower really gave that band a whole new sound.

That's cool about the Selmer; I  haven't had the pleasure of even seeing one of those.  Closest I've got is '65 Vibrolux.  I just ordered some new speakers for it, hopefully get it closer to original.  Back in the 90s I made the mistake of getting Fender stock speakers.  TOTALLY wrecked that amp, lol.  I need to go through the whole thing, anyway. 

I have seen that Floyd vid, classic!  Speaking of "favorite bands that sound awful". . . .Lol,  just kidding.  But definitely a very different band compared to later. 

Years ago, I bought Uncut magazine, specifically 'cuz they included a cd sampler of 60's acid rock bands in that particular issue.  Syd has one song on it, Octopus.  I noticed in the u tube playlist, though, it says "this video not avail."  Anyway, pretty good album overall.

I was gonna ask what the term "brown bread" was, I hadn't heard that before, but did a quick search,  gotcha.  Yeah, the older we get, the more we see that happening.

I actually got to meet Rick Derringer, a lot shorter than I thought he'd be!  lol, everybody looks bigger on stage, I guess.  8)
 
Im just chewin my through your selectionsKid ,Whiskey trains a monster alright ,I never realised The  Harum did overdrive blues rock so well ,its well up there with the ZZ boys in terms of 'attack'blues, that train rollin beat is a classic too ,reminds me alot of the Ed king railroad song by Skynrd'z. That swirley country porridge stir blues slide  on the old time country guys you posted earlier was great too and the high speed diddly I on banjo ,they were on military grade speed for sure ,pilot grade wack ,must have been ;)

I  feel Southern music has been dismissed on the back of preconceptions as old hat ,watching America tear itself in half down the middle along political lines is driving a line between every nation on the planet ,do not underestimate your influence spiritually  on fledgeling states in this regard,you go down you might take the rest of us with you by proxy.

more on the tunes later,auxillary beer tank needs tapping ,
Ill be back as the man said,Good-morning afternoon evening night as applicapable
Every notice the way Hollywood tries to reflect and amplify public sentiment to the detriment? ,thats the work of the divil himself Id say,tuggan curamach againn (take care with ye)

I know im probably taking a liberty delving into politics in a wonderfully simple post like this ,but its time we chose more inclusive words rather than devisive ,meanwhile the Pc brigade systematically undermines all our rights by stagnating debate
Anyway hopefully a few themes to ponder over your morning coffee stateside included ,over but never out (mouth of the south)
 
Some true believers:

Some classic Baker on T.U.S.A. (Sunrise on the Sufferbus). Blue Garden, Kill the King, Candy Girl, reminds me of some good times...

I remember we covered one of their songs in a battle of the bands competition and the judges really got into us for the lyrics (Ants in the Kitchen). Fair enough I suppose.

I think I need to find copies of those couple of albums I used to really enjoy.

I think this is a pretty good song. Kind of wonky.

Always liked their song Bandoliers as well. They were unsurprisingly good in concert.




 
I saw Ginge playing live at a local jazz festival some years back ,awesome stuff, There was one moment during the concert where his temper nearly flared , he had already taken the stage and was speaking to the crowd when an announcement for the audience to take their seats came over house pa ,he started grinding his teeth and turned bright red ,looked like he was about to explode ,but someone in the audience made a funny joke and luckily he simmered down again as fast as he got angry.

Very prolific Mr Grohl ,Id bet he's in ten other bands I never heard the name of too , the lack of ego about him is pretty amazing for a man of his stature musically, Seems to have given a leg up to dozens of bands along the way too. Musical genious and all round good old skin ,that truely is a rare combo.

All I'm gonna say about politics is maybe there wouldn't be as many problems right now in the world if people just shut there big yappers and listen to some great music!!    :p

Like I mentioned before, there's bound to be discussions that come up from all this, so I don't think it's bad overall, on the other hand, it's not my topic post.  I do appreciate yours/others insights on stuff, it's great to have views from outside our own little world(s). 


I love Skynyrd, that one ya posted was great, I hadn't heard that.  "I got me a 1950. . . Les Paul Guitar. . . Won't ya take it, Mr. Banker. . .Won't ya bury my Poppa for me" 

I can't find my freakin' tape cassette of Skynyrd, but my personal favorite is "The Ballad of Curtis Loew"

Interestingly enough, last night on PBS, they showed an episode of the series "American Epic: Blood and Soil"  I can't find full one hour episode, but here's an excerpt from it:

If anybody ever doubts where modern music (pop, rock, metal, whatever), that was pretty much ground zero!  Starting down south,  (well, actually, Africa, then down south), up to Chicago, over to England, and then back here again.  There's another amazing pbs show (I watch a lot of pbs, lol) I saw years ago about the story of the blues, here's the trailer:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_mmNV-W74g

I don't know, I don't get rap at all, (there's a few here and there) but when I listen to Robert Johnson, or any body from back then, I actually "feel" the music from head to toe, just something about it.  That's what got me really wanting to play guitar in the first place.  And also why I wanted to throw it out a few times, lol, after listening to near impossible playing from all those guys/gals.  I've seen Rory Block in concert live 3 times, and I remember one time, I actually got shivers down my spine from the way she was playing that acoustic.  From what I understand, she actually learned at the feet of the masters, when she went off to find Mississippi John Hurt, Reverend Gary Davis, and Son House.

I kinda like that second one Squeaky posted, it reminds me of this one, not sure why, it just does! :p:

Plenty of good stuff there alrigth Kid ,Marshall Tucker is only a relatively new discovery to my ears actually ,cant you see is a fav though.

The BB one with Country picker dude was awesome too ,Its funny in a way isnt  it country right alongside the blues ,make me think in one way country evolved as a kind of white mans blues ,but with more of a european Folk type inlfuence behind it

Here's one from Slade ,probably posted it before more that once ,but for the benefit of anyone who hasnt ,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPTk5poAa1c
Fairly punky/pub rock kinda sound on the guitars,more happy go lucky in the lyrics dept from Noddy though. Cheerfull Anthemic rock , the kinda tunes that resonate around football stadiums when the crowd catches onto them .

Here another from sensational Alex harvey band  ,boozey and bluesy, note the Tennants special brew  quif he puts on at the start ,class act alright
The demented clown  on guitars tears the shit out of that Sg in the solos too .Pantomime Glam rock I guess you could call it.

by the way ,appologies for last nights slightly off base post ,In terms of content I stand by what I said ,but just posted in the wrong place more than anything .  I know my political posts arent everyones cup of tea either ,I accept that the nature of some of the things I get into could cause offence or even anger ,but that is the furthest thing from my intentions in saying it .

Thanks for that one Boji ,Jacaszek,yes a bit of musical space is great ,time to ponder between notes .
 
Every Russian have heard this tune. :)
E. Artemiev  inspired by Ennio Morricone

Yes. Again idiotic. ;D

PS. Whats going over the world now? Something new, powerfull? Must listen? It helps us to understand the time we live in.
 
Kinda cool other than  the fact that the first two minutes were a single repeating loop/no lyrics. #bored.

Thanks for this S2000. Brings back memories when I was in my early 20's, fighting forest fires in British Columbia. Wild and crazy(fun) times.
 
felt in the mood for some of that bawdy house/baroom blues style ,

Youtube search for 'dirty sexy blues' threw up this ,

Damn, Lucille was one wild lady . ;D Im broke up with laughter
 
She shoots from the hip Miss Lucille  ;)  it is hard to believe your ears at first,
Hell, the pc brigade would probably have her strung up nowadays  :-X
 
Bowie. Blackstar. Bladerunner.

What a life. Remarkable artist.

I did a double take listening to Miss Lucille. Did she really just sing that? In '35? And it was recorded? I get the feeling she was quite comfortable explaining her likes and dislikes.
