Cool Music to Vape to - Part 2

I go where the thrills are
A small visual taste of last night's Gov't Mule/John Scofield show. Sco is amazing. This was also my big "celebrate getting my Maine MMJ certification card" night. (This winter sucks...but for things that count, like music and herb...Maine really is vacationland.)

Been walking into work the past week or so with the eyes and cheeks of someone who's been recently crying. We all know that guy, right?

Might have something to do with how much I've been toking and drinking and etc. before work, but who's to say?

And who's to say that I don't continue to look like that throughout the workday for the same reasons. Or something completely different.

It's all speculation. Life is good - and it never lies to itself, like ever.

And it has nothing to do with this song, I'm sure - which you'd likely never guess in a million years ...

Bee Gees

'The Hendrix set is notable for the fact there is no guitar on it - "just" Brian's unique basses and flying fingers, and monster drummer Vinnie Colaiuta; kind of an "Interstellar Space" diets but in Jimi's incandescent tuneage.' - Editorial Review

Here are a few tracks from the album:

@mitchgo61 Who can forget the drumline on Radar Love? I figured you would have seen all these bands before. SBM even toured around there in the late 80s :)

Edit - I *finally* get to say I saw a band tour that you didn't - Nazareth, live in Halifax NS, 86 or 7 (the years were really blurry back then, if ya catch my drift?). They looked so much older than I expected, but they sounded just as good as any of their albums - a great show, at least the parts I remember...

Nazareth - Beggars day

More stuff from around that era -
Rush - Fly by night & In the mood
Before they switched to UFOs and aliens and such...




Some Messiahs trivia for you:
on Carter's playing style, saying that "[h]e plays without a pick, crashing the flesh of his fingers into the strings with little regard for its mortality. Blood can often be seen splattered across the scratch plate – or the place where the scratch plate would be if it hadn't been removed. To avoid completely razoring the top of his fingers off, and I suppose also because he likes the sound, William uses unusually heavy bottom strings; Rotosound (and nothing else will do)56, 48, 28, 16, 13 and 12. But he gives 'em such a sound thrashing that one string breaks every couple of numbers and often one a number, and I don't just mean the top strings; Es and As cop it an' all. In the words of his roadie, 'He goes fooking bonkers!'"[6]

Carter's vocal delivery also attracted attention in the music press with, for example, John Dougan commenting: 'Carter wielded his instrument like a cross between Wilko Johnson and Pete Townshend; he was a deft soloist, but it was his tricky, complex rhythm playing that gave the band sheet-after-sheet of supercharged sound for a foundation. As impressive as his guitar playing was his voice: at times comically bawling, other times mumbling and imperceptible; in the course of a verse, Carter could sound righteously indignant, or suddenly frightened and confused'.[7] The band's overall sound, according to Dougan, 'made for extreme, confrontational, and very, very exciting rock & roll'.[7]

Yes I'm very unhappy I never saw them! :( Glad you did though...they were freaking great. At least up through the mid 80s. I did see Thin Lizzy though (gotta mention them since Derrrpp brought em up), on the same bill with Queen in 77. That was quite a show, now featuring three great departed figures (Freddy Mercury, Phil Lynott, Gary Moore).

Great life lesson: see the bands you love when you can, because you never know...

So true... I'm a young buck who likes mostly older rock n roll, so I'll never be able to see half the bands I'd like to...:( I've been to several great shows though: Aerosmith, The Pretty Reckless, Slash, to name a few.

Anyway, in keeping with the spirit of this thread, here's 2 minutes of Joe Perry wailing on his guitar:
Joe Perry Project - Break Song

Here's another late night one... I dislike the fact that I still like this song...

Julee Cruise - Floating

I should also cross-post this to 'bump this thread if you're vaped now', but I'm too lazy for that...

Here's another that I saw way back, and almost forgot about...

Mahogany Rush - Dragonfly

Not as floaty tho...

And here's a band that once backed Bob Dylan...

Plugz - Reel ten

Night all :)
