The Music Thread

Now I have a soft spot for girl guitarists so this Wynona Judd tune speaks to me with Lyle Lovett and Naomi Judd singing back up.



and that CD is a keeper :cool:

That album is phenom - even aside from the title track - and I have very happy memories associated with it. Cheers 🍻
 
I will never understand why J.J. Cale wasn't more popular.


He wasn't flashy. Low key guy. Wikipedia does a good job of telling his story. One little tidbit which I'd heard before:

The history on that deal was, the original "After Midnight" I recorded was on Liberty Records on a 45-rpm, and it was fast. That was about 1967-68, maybe 69. I can't remember exactly. But that was the original "After Midnight", and that is what Clapton heard. If you listen to Eric Clapton's record, what he did was imitate that. No one heard that first version I made of it. I tried to give the thing away, until he cut it and made it popular. So, when I recorded the Naturally album Denny Cordell, who ran Shelter Records at the time, and I had already finished the album, he said, "John, why don't you put 'After Midnight' on there because that is what people recognize you for?" I said, "Well, I've already got that on Liberty Records, and Eric Clapton's already cut it, so if I'm going to do it again I'm going to do it slow.[1

 
You know you're not supposed to get me started on underrated and forgotten guitarists, don't you.



Billy played the Cradle off and on for years. Always a fun time.

Billy Price first attracted national attention during his three-year association with guitarist Roy Buchanan. Price is the vocalist on two of Buchanan's LPs ...

Here's Roy's take of one of Billy's regular show stoppers

 

Finesse, have you been spying on my CD collection ? Shuggie Otis ? and my girl Tracy Nelson who I had the pleasure to see at the Pier in Rawlee back in the day.

The song you picked from this Tracy CD is the bomb, but my favorite from that CD is this one...

I like that as well.

This is just stuff I was listening to in college.

There was a time that this was a very meaningful song (and album) to me.

just stuff you were listening to in college ? I'm UNC class of '74 and with a few exceptions Don McClean was right...the music died with disco around 1978 ;)

80 % of what I listen to these days is post 90s and a lot of it came out in the last ten or fifteen years. What you really have to remember is Sturgeon's Law,"90% of everything is crap."

Most of the old stuff I do listen to are the more obscure stuff that hasn't gotten overplayed on classic rock and oldies channels over the last 50 years.
