Tippaporn Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) Dickey Betts' solo '74 Highway Call full album featuring fiddle legend Vassar Clements, Leon, Walter & Frank Poindexter, and Allman Bros. pianist Chuck Leavell. Put yourself on the road through the Great Smokey Mountains during a camping trip whilst listening to this. Perhaps a joint now and again. Now that's atmosphere!

Early to late 70's was the golden era. I did a lot of road trips through the U.S. and we always loaded up with southern rock cassettes. Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels, Allman Bros., Marshall Tucker, ZZ Top, Elvin Bishop, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, The Outlaws, Waylon and Willie, Johnny Winters, Black Oak Arkansas, Wet Willie, Hank Williams Jr., Pure Prairie League, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Grinderswitch, Dickie Betts & The Great Southern, etc. Bluegrass as well. I think you might have missed Poco and maybe Timothy B Schmit? Was talking to a long lost mate today (hence my extra interest in the thread today). Charlie Daniels, Poco and OMD (Ozark) cropped up. Willie DeVille "Mixed Up Shook Up Girl" (Live 8+mins) blows me away. My tastes go from country to country, from genre to genre and then to the moon and back. Always enlightening to talk about music. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found his (Mink?) CD, featuring Italian Shoes, in a Vienna record shop (remember those?!), circa mid 1990's. Downstairs in the Vienna subway while I was back-packin'. Wow. What times indeed.

Lucky Bones Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Hmmm. Haven't got the time to read 38 pages of posts. I might just erupt into "Violence" as would Ian Hunter & Mott the Hoople. Too bizzy (sic) with Willie Deville at the moment.???????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 John Hiatt knows how to recognize a good slide. In 1987 he was presented with the incredible opportunity to choose his favorite musicians to record with, and he did not hesitate to choose Ry Cooder on guitar and that is how the wonderful 'Bring the Family' was created. However for the live performances Cooder was not available and so Hiatt hired an unknown band, The Goners, whose guitarist he had fallen in love with, Sonny Landreth. This man stepped into the shoes of a legend and did not disappoint: the following year appeared the remarkable 'Slow Turning' that was the first great proof that the slide had found another myth. Sonny Landreth takes the spotlight along with fellow guitarists Derek Trucks and Eric Clapton on Congo Square live at the 2013 Crossroads Guitar Festival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Little Feat on Cold Cold Cold/Tripe Face Boogie. The final solo on the first with George's slide is a true beauty (at 8:07), at the height of one of those forgotten albums that is worth re-claiming, the '74 Feats Don’t Fail Me Now.

Tippaporn Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Rory Gallagher recorded Who's That Coming for the remarkable 1973 Tattoo but, as usually used to happen with the Irishman, the song found its best live version, specifically on the legendary Irish Tour the following year. For the song Gallagher abandons, momentarily, his legendary Stratocaster from 61 to play with one of his favourites on the slide, his white 66 Fender Telecaster. The results are as spectacular as one would expect from one of the best guitarists of all time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
