From who’s treated me really well over the years, Mr. Levon Helm. This song is great and fits the moment right now, so hit play… As we speak they are opening up a spillway to fill the land of 25,000 people in Morganza, LA, instead of Baton Rouge and The Big Easy. Here is a [...]
Hit Play to get started… I thought I’d first with a little “Better Off Dead” by Bill Withers. I have a feeling this song was pretty popular back when it came out but today it’s one of of Bill Wither’s more obscure songs. I have some alcoholism in my family and this song hit me [...]
Once in a while, particularly when I’m at work and I have some reports to crank out, I’ll put on my headphones and hunker down, and sometimes that includes just listening to the songs and albums I’ve added here to my site since I launched it in 2008. I decided to add one of my [...]
For the first post in eons I thought I would put up this “other” previously unreleased album of Jimi Hendrix Experience, that has been out for ages… There is some rippin’ stuff particularly “Country Blues” (track 5) and some others…
I’ve been having epic music moments again in my car recently, but this time due to Sirius satellite radio. I was listening to an old song I love by The Police, “Bring on the Night.” The Police is one more of the bands that effected me heavily in high school and college, though this was [...]
It’s been a while since I’ve posted up some fresh and interesting tunes… The good news is it’s not because more of it isn’t out there… One major, major influence that has so far been missing from the site is… Soulive! These guys are so damn sick, three of them, two are brothers… That’s right, [...]
Look for more updates about this as I get some time. My hobby, ‘dirtbag adventuring’ www.hazardassembly.com. Also RIP Michael Jackson, devastating because I liked his music so much. It did shape my life and the music here, sort of as the ‘first taste.’ I played that album from when I could work the record player [...]
This afternoon as I’m banging away on a web project, I had Breakestra playing once again. There are quite a few more tracks than what I’d originally posted so I thought I would post them up on the old post. HERE IS THE LINK TO THE OLD POST ON THIS SITE. Click it to listen [...]
I thought I would start playing from some of the archive of live Herbie Hancock recordings I’ve been acquiring and saving for some time…. “Peace and Love” as my friend Ara says… (hit play) This is a pretty killer recording of Jaco Pastorious sitting in with Herbie Hancock quintet in 1977 at the Ivanhoe Theatre [...]
I have seen these guys play a couple times and they are pretty killer… In a couple weeks is the Desert Rocks Music Festival and they are playing a complete Herbie Hancock set. How sick is that… To get you guys pumped listen to how tight their band is and their music skills. A couple [...]
