And the live version off of his '74 Fire On The Mountain LP.

Carol live with Ted Nugent at the Volunteer Jam VI in Nashville, TN at the Municipal Auditorium on January 12, 1980.  Volume needs to be kicked up as this vid was uploaded at low volume.

 

 

[Tippaporn]

Charlie Daniels as guest fiddle on 24 Hours At A time off of the '74 Marshall Tucker Where We All Belong double LP.

Sad news about Charlie Daniels but great to see Tippers back. He's been away so long I feared the worst, a corona victim or perhaps unable to return to LOS.

Charlie had a good run, 83 when he passed away.

Wonderful music.

Anne Harris, a different kind of violinist.

Very nice and unique rendition of a classic rock song, bannork.  Charlie Daniels wasn't a violinist, though.  He was a fiddler.  Mere semantics, I'm sure, LOL.

 

I am up to my nose with work and won't be back for another few weeks.  I had to take the time to post on CD's very recent passing, though, as he was a huge influence on not only my musical inclinations but his outlook on life as expressed in many of his lyrics mirrored those which we lived, such as the lyrics below.  And as we were big time campers, travelers, adventurers, tramps and magnificent lovers of nature so too did his music meld perfectly with those proclivities.

 

The title track off of his '76 LP, Saddle Tramp.

 

"Saddle Tramp"

 

Well you pass around the pipe and you all get high
Never even stop and wonder why
Maybe it's because you wanna die
Maybe it's just the way things have to be

You stay up late and drink too damn much whiskey
You know that sort of thing is kind of risky
Maybe it's just because you like to feel frisky
Maybe it's just because you like to feel free

Saddle Tramp
How many people watch you ridin' by
Like a thunder cloud that floats
Across the Arizona sky
And wonder if they're looking
At a mighty happy man
Or just a lonely breeze that drifts
Across the endless desert sand

Well it's gettin' kinda cold in Ruidoso
Abilene ain't gettin' any closer
One more drink, one more hand of poker
‘Cause a fool and his money's
Gonna have to part

You're too proud to ever show your sorrow
You don't steal and you won't beg or borrow
You may be here today but you're gone tomorrow
There ain't no strings on your boot heels
Or your heart

Saddle Tramp
How many people watch you ride away
Wonder why you never promise
To come back some day
Maybe thinking you were holding
All the pieces in your hand
Or are they slippin' through your fingers
Like the endless desert sand

It's always a welcome pleasure to post some Hendrix when I find a new track.  Hey Joe, unspecified date of release or album/CD/DVD.

 

 

[Tippaporn]

Hendrix in Stockholm, Sweden on May 24th, '67 playing The Wind Cries Mary in front of a small gathering.

 

 

[Tippaporn]

Voodoo Child from an unknown concert and date.  I'll copy and paste from the comments what someone expressed infinitely better than I ever could.

 

Jimi was not the fastest, nor the cleanest guitarist. What set him miles above the other greats was emotion, power, and improvisation. He was able to pull off sounds that seemed technically impossible at the time, (no-hands controlled feedback, sustain, etc). The greatest loss, in his early demise, is never having had the opportunity to experience what he could have done with modern day equipment. He is, and will remain, the guitar virtuoso god of our lifetimes.

 

 

 

[bannork]

Jimi takes you away, and 50 years after his last recording, he still astounds with his sounds.

His lyrics were something else too.

Mary was a girlfriend if I remember right.

Love the lyrics from Dolly Dagger, about Devon Wilson and Mick Jagger.

King Crimson with the masterful Epitaph off of their '69 debut In the Court Of The Crimson King.  Absolutely nothing even remotely comparable exists anywhere in music today.

 

 

[Tippaporn]

This clip is simply for posterity.  A short clip of King Crimson King playing 21st Century Schizoid Man live at Hyde Park in '69 in support of the Rolling Stones.  For the sake of memories, is all.

 

 

[Tippaporn]

Mick Taylor's first gig with the Stones at the '69 Hyde Park concert playing Sympathy For The Devil.  Fun, innit?
