My apologies to the bairn, and I must have a word with that sound engineer .. although in his defence he did alright overall on the album .. LL won a Grammy that year 👍

Not so much of the Old, he’s only a whippersnapper here in 1989! With that rooster boy haircut 😂 & yeah I agree on the BVs & the full band is so tight. Was just checking if my good friend Leland Sklar was on bass.. he is😎
I shook his hand in Belfast

Check out his cv

HERE I AM
LYLE LOVETT & his LARGE BAND

song.link/s/1C73pYYBwv...

Holding on to the big band sound (sorry.. it’s not big, it’s LARGE 🙈🤠) for one more day, and throwing in a little Texan country swagger & humour into the mix… and a random Hank Williams name check 🤝..I’m having it😁

IT’S MY LIFE
PAUL ANKA

My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said “I did it my way”
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

From a 2005 album (and v much a guilty pleasure) we get the full big band experience given to a Richie Sambora song🎙️

ROCK’n’ROLL HEART
LUCINDA WILLIAMS

Having seen two separate songs being posted which referenced the wonderful Lucinda Williams (both very good) I felt it only right to bump this up my list to grab her own little bit of limelight tonight 🎸💙

A HOUSE
ENDLESS ART

📺 youtu.be/TJ1udicQbbE?...

After the epic poetry posted yesterday, it immediately put me in mind of this 1991 track from Irish band A House, produced by Edwyn Collins… name dropping Hendrix, Elvis & Sid Vicious to name but a few 🙌

ODE TO ANTHONY H WILSON
MIKE GARRY & JOE DUDDELL

youtu.be/3cYNI8s_vo4?...

Mike Garry poet, ex librarian..
“His performances are passionate swirling rhythms of thoughts and emotions converted to monologues of quick-fire words.”

This, his tip of the hat to music industry icon Wilson.

‘LOU REED’
THE LITTLE WILLIES (2006)

song.link/s/6Grkq9rd3H...

Lou Reed?
Out in wilds of Texas?
Engaging in shady goings on .. and having fun?? All sounds a bit improbable, but has the makings of a great country song from Norah Jones and her band of …willies? 😊👍..

‘ Hey Lou!’

Just checked and he is on the credits
Also just seeing Gabrielle’s surname

Hope you guys are having/had a great weekend I feel your feet pain, we knocked up over 20,000 steps on Friday .. the little house dog was out like a light when she got home
