LOL, Old Croc's obviously been spending time reading the obituary columns.  Just joking OC, and thanks for bringing it up here.

 

Paying tribute to The Cars could take all day.  Fantastic band.  This will get into the 80's but necessary to pay a full tribute.

 

Just What I Needed off of their '78 self-titled debut.

 

 

 

I worked in an engineering office in San Jose in the mid 80s and a colleague named Dick Wocasek who was deputy chief mechanical said that his daughter mentioned that Ric Ocasek is a famous rock and roller...we were quietly having coffee and then someone said will this compromise our position as engineers and serious professionals?...and then someone said nah, so long as they pay our salaries on time we ain't got nothin' to worry about...and then there was a collective grunt of agreement...Dick had polio as a kid and someone kicked his bad leg on the way back to our desks...

 

buncha industrial mercenary philistines...

Three sweet voices from three sweet ladies performing The Sweetest Gift from one of Dolly's shows in '76 or '77.  All three were born in either '46 or '47.

Linda Ronstadt performing Blue Bayou live sometime in the late 70's.  The audio quality is excellent but the volume is set low on this video so you'll have to crank it up a bit.

Fare thee well Robert Hunter. Like Dylan, you were unique, your words taking us to places we had never dreamed of.

You made the world a better place.

All of my friends come to see me last night
I was laying in my bed and dying
Annie Beauneu from Saint Angel
Say "the weather down here so fine"

 

Just then the wind came squalling through the door
But who can the weather command
Just want to have a little peace to die
And a friend or two I love at hand

 

50 years later and prophetically he found a peaceful death in bed with his loved ones by his side and his wife holding his hand as he passed.

 

Grateful Dead with Black Peter off of their '69 Workingman's Dead LP.

I recently saw a statement from a young current member of some modern band: All the good music has already been  played, copied, and completed. There really is not any thing worthwhile possible to be created/discovered. (approx).  Surprising that this would be said by a younger member of the music business.
