Gary Glitter comes up in my YouTube rotation...now some stuff seems unseemly...
YouTube categorizes Squirrel Nut Zippers into my "Country" play...no, big band is how it ought...
By 1970 I was way too cool for this

Current White House residents overheard fighting ⤴️ 😆
But then by 2011 the cool caught up ⤵️

Not sure why, but this song was rattling around in my head today. Not the pop version that made the band lots of money but the acoustic that was true to their style. I find it haunting and moving.
Sister Hazel is from here. I don't know them but I know people who do. They got the name from Sister Hazel.
I played "The Zoo" on the juke box the other day, pretty well received...
Astrud Gilberto lets BP drop near ten%...but dance after with Swingout Sister and Cathy Dennis and Marky Mark

"Cherchez La Femme" went to #1 on the disco chart.[1] "Cherchez La Femme" also charted on the pop, R&B, and Adult Contemporary charts.

Wonderful Nils story about recording with Neil - and Lee Sklar comment. And Petty & Heartbreakers anecdote in there, too. Good stuff.
Bump - since it's been Jazzfest time:
And.......since we're discussing Canada in a couple other threads currently...........here are a few who've done it proud:

That song set the hook for me for CSNY. I was first in line at the record store to buy "Deja Vu". I still own the album with the special textured cover that would be worth $$$ but the record store owner put a small slice in the album at the top of the pack with her box cutter, and I was more than willing to take the album for fifty cents off.
He's gonna karaoke this at his ballroom's big opening.
...this off the dedication line tonight, babe wanted to remain anonymous...
Bonnie Raitt and Jackson Browne, “Your Sweet and Shiny Eyes”
It was either New Order or Joy Division, I think.
A love song for you, babe.
Gloria Estefan - Falling in Love (Uh-Oh)
My kids thought this deviltry alluring...they soon learned.
The philistines at the public house'd better appreciate when I crank this on jukebox tarde.
That band was sooo hot (duh - thus the name). Rodney and Albert look so young there. Emmylou, essentially ageless - goes without saying.
TOM PETTY...at his best (one man's opinion).
There are some who are ready to party, and then there are these true rockers:
On that last one, the sublime performances of the jumpers in the background - especially the high-, long-, and triple-jumpers - FAR exceeds the quality of the music. And I'm (mostly) not dissing the music........it's just that I'd much rather see more footage of the dudes doing scarcely believable things. I spent 'some' time looking thru the comments for attribution of the athletes, to no avail. I think I recognize a couple of them. Perhaps our other tracksters here can nail them down. Except that it's unlikely they'll see this request.
And, to me........it's sad that there are many hundreds of comments about the music, and the Pointers, but didn't see a *single* comment about the *real* jumpers. I didn't plow thru every reply, but didn't even see a hint of such. Sigh......
Didn't recognize any of the track athletes. One of the hurdlers looked really familiar, but that vid was made a long time ago.
I picked up a hot sister back in the day, and this song is a hot memory trigger.
I thought it was Peter Frampton, but it's Gary Wright.
This lady was born in 1893, and began playing music with her (right-handed) brother's banjo, and is totally self-taught. This song she wrote when she was 11 (ELEVEN!) years old after she was able to obtain a guitar, and I'm sure it'll be familiar to some, as it's been covered by Garcia, Dylan, Doc, and others. She got married at 17 and started a family, so quit playing for 40(!) years, only to be 'discovered', kinda serendipitously, by the Seeger family when she began working for them as a maid. And so had to sort of re-teach herself how to play.
Your link took me to this link: Astrud Gilberto The Ed Sullivan Show.
But not directly, right? Still takes me to "Cotten-pickin'".
Whoa...John Ritter's father looks exactly like Dylan McDerrmott...who was hugging who?
Beginning of the Ritter thing is *slightly* reminiscent of the beginning of "Voodoo Chile".
HUSTLER- Who would win a catfight between the Bangles and Go-Go's?
SUSANNA: I think the Go-Go's,
VICKI: They would want it more.
SUSANNA: The Go-Go's would scratch our eyes out.
DEBBI: They have longer nails.
VICKI: I think we could kick some serious Go-Go butt, but we don't want to.
SUSANNA: I think they are tougher than we are.
DEBBI: We would try to talk them out of it.…SUSANNA: I think the Go-Go's are more emotionally high-strung than we are.
DEBBI: Although we have our moments.
VICKI: We'd win in a psychological fight. HUSTLER 2008

In February 2021 Eric Clapton’s live shows at The Royal Albert Hall were canceled due to the global pandemic. Determined to play, he brought his band together in the English countryside. In the absence of a live audience, he decided to record the performances. This release is the culmination of their sessions together at Cowdray House, West Sussex, England.
