i think it's fairly obvious by now that Slaps is indeed Roger Waters.

And another of my old time favorites.

 

And for those members who know Pattaya, and the names of some of the entertainment businesses, may be it was this song that first subconsciously planted  the thought that I should visit Thailand a few years later, and Pattaya in particular many years ago ( when I was younger)  ????

I'm surprised Hendrix's sister hasn't taken this down but may as well post this iconic song.

 

127+ million views.  I liked the top comment . . . "Jimi's not dead god just asked for guitar lessons."  LOL

and let's not forget

 

 

covered more famously by Janis and Big Brother...

 

 

I always thought that Little red rooster was a big mama song but it was the fabulous Willie Dixon and the Stones put a marvelous spin on it with Brian Jones on bottleneck...

 

 

 

 

Always loved Big Mama Thorton.  Her demise was sad, though.  Found dead in '84 in an L.A. boarding house.  She lost 355 lbs. in a short time due to her illnesses, going from 450 lbs. to 95 lbs.  Geez!!  Anyway, her music thankfully and appreciatively lives on.

yeah, willie mae was a regular with the 'bottle gangs' in south central LA, passin' around a bottle of fortified white port gallo wine...she performed a lot at the Ash Grove on Melrose in LA where I saw her mostly drunk but she could get off a few good licks from time to time, her back up band kept things moving while she stumbled around the stage, this was in the early 70s and she musta weighed about 300lbs...a sad demise to one of the best woman blues singers/composers...

 

saw Jimmy Reed and Big Joe Williams about the same time as they were on their way out and that stuck me to de blues forever and after...when I was in a band in the early 60s didn't know then that it was de blues that we were mostly playin'...I was just a young fool wid a guitar...

Allah Las - Raspberry Jam [2019]

 

Nice band, DB.  Listen to the audio only on this one and you'd think you were listening to an oldie from a 60's band.  Released 2012.

Another hip tune.  Hey, man, they even have an old VW minibus.  Obviously in California.  I guess if you weren't around in the 60's you could always recreate it.  The dress ain't right, though.  No paisley shirts, tie-dyed tees, striped pants or fringed jackets.  No beads or rawhide necklaces with peace medallions. Hot pants would look good on the chicks, and a few flowers in their hair.  Campfires in the desert.  Wonder if they tried the group love thing.  Don't see a bong anywhere in the van, either.  :sad:  Tutsi and I could have helped them make the vid a bit more authentic.  Next time . . .

nah man, I thought all that tie dyed stuff was fer wannabes...me for t shirts, levis and work boots all the way...until the 70s when I ditched the levis and switched to baggy chinos, them SoCal mexican homeboys and their gear was where it was at...

 

some of the desert stuff from the video looks familiar, high desert east of San Bernadino...my dad bought 5 acres of scrubland out there not far from Joshua Tree nat'l park in the late 50s, built a cabin and we useta go up there a lot when I was a kid...my mom was a country girl from Bolivia and didn't mind cooking over a fire and shittin' in the brush...they were some of the happiest times when I was a kid...

 

I owned a '66 VW van (1500cc and rebuilt the engine myself twice during the 10 years I owned it) in the 70s, a sweet runner but could only do about 50mph...only had an AM radio but that was enough as we made our own music with our youthful exuberance...
