The Music Thread

I've been listening to the soundtrack from the "Last Waltz" . Martin Scorsese made a doc of The Band's last tour which is a must see DVD. So many great artists performing...

Two other must see DVDs are Woodstock and Gimme Shelter. Watch them back to back and experience the juxtaposition of love and revulsion

This will give you youngsters a musical glimpse of the Boomers when we were young;)

Here is Sly and the Family Stone at Woodstock

Great song!!

I've mentioned this somewhere here or maybe on the ZZL but I saw Jamey Johnson, Warren Haynes, Lukas Nelson, Don Was and others do the full Last Waltz show at the DPAC about 5 years ago. They even had the chandeliers hung up like the ballroom set from the original concert. Great show!

Wow !

I'm sorry I missed that:(
 
On December 4, 1971, Frank Zappa and the Mothers were playing at the Montreux, Switzerland Casino on the Lake Geneva shoreline when "some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground." Deep Purple, in town to record the Machine Head album, quickly used that experience to produce one of the most recognizable guitar riffs in rock history.

One of the most underated bands. Started by Richie Furay and Jim Messina both Buffaloe Soringfield members). Many talented and well known musicians would cycle through.

Between Buffalo Springfield and the Flying Burrito Brothers , a large chunk of the music I listened to was made up of them and associated acts for about 15 years. Still listen to them a fair amount.

The first two albums these guys did were also very good.

My dude! Me too. Started with The Byrds Sweetheart of the Rodeo... Springfield, CCR, CSN, CSNY, Poco, Souther, Hillman, Furay, Nitty Gritty and the Circle album, Allman Bros, Tucker Band, Ozark Mountain, Pure Prairie, New Riders, Old and in Way, America, ZZT, Elvin Bish, Amazing Rhyhm Aces, Atlanta R. Section, etc... Then it all morphed into Skynyrd and their off-shoots and the wheels came off for me. I tried to like CDB, Molly, .38 special, etc. etc.... But I just couldn't go there. Bridge too far. By the mid-to-late 1970's I was full on Bluegrass and New Grass: NGRevival, David Grisman, Tony Rice, Seldom Scene, Red Clay Ramblers, etc. etc. I played in a bluegrass band (guitar) for the next 20 years or so... Still play some upright bass with a local bluegrass outfit from time to time.
