    First video I've seen of Rush's new lineup.  Single-camera POV, but it is in HDR and fun to watch.  Geddy sings okay for a 72-yr-old.

    Whee!  And with two minutes left to edit, here's the CBC version.  No HDR, but the mix and video are much better:

    Jim Croce's "Time in a Bottle", done on two Chapman Sticks; very cool!

    Seal is my favorite male rock vocalist, bar none.  He began releasing albums of old soul and big-band standards, and I kinda lost interest; I get tired of the same songs over and over (I despise Xmas season for that very reason).  
    Well, this one slipped thru the cracks:
     

     
    It was released in 2010, but I completely missed it until now; all original music.  Been listening to it for about a week now, and I'm digging it.  Worth a listen.

    So much intensity, and fire, over just 3 chords (sometimes two) with a guitarist, bass, Hammond, drummer (with only two toms and 3 cymbals) and two (three if you count Maraca Man) percussionists.  Early Santana, Tanglewood; dayam.

    I’ve been digging a Canadian duo called Angine de Poitrine these last few weeks, Math Rock with microtonal tuning, its not for everybody.  When a duo like this can get a club full of folks clapping along, in 9/4 time, that’s just… Wow!

    For any Springsteen fans:  PBS is showing a 90-minute concert video of the E-Street band's concert at the No Nukes concert, featuring "unreleased footage", from 1979.  Set your VCRs (it plays at 11 pm here, past my bedtime).   B)

    Anyone else listen to the "Professor of Rock" ewetube channel?  It's a favorite of mine, he does a deep dive into particular artists and their history, or sometimes a "Greatest Ten whatever" in rock.  Here, he counts down his top Eight weirdest songs in history:

    I was a Dr. Demento fan in high school, so this was right up my alley.  Some interesting things I learned:

    - The guy who played Will Robinson on 1960's Lost in Space also recorded that seminal masterpiece, Fish Heads

    - Peter Gabriel studied mass murderers for a song

    - I need to listen to PF's UmmaGumma

    - I didn't know the background of The Shaggs, wow.

    Personal History time.  I grew up on my Dad’s country radio, Mom’s music, teenage AM radio rock, and then band/orchestral stuff in GS/MS/HighS, thru college Jazz Bands, and I loved it all.  I picked up harmonica, fiddle (inherited my Great Grandfather’s German instrument) and slide guitar.  My first duty assignment after college was in Dayton OH, and was soon playing in a stone-country weekend band.  Saw a beginner’s Pedal Steel in a pawnshop, bought it, and started playing around; the band soon asked me to play it during rehearsals and soon it was on stage every weekend.  it was a beginner’s instrument, just three footpedals and one knee lever, but the very first rehearsal I figured out that playing the 1, 3, 5, 8 strings gave me a Major I chord, pressing the 1 and 2 pedals gave me a Major IV chord on the same strings, and then just sliding the bar up two frets gave me the Major V, and that alone let me play 90% of all country music (at that time)!  
    Tonight EweTube’s Al Gore Rhythm gave me this 30-minute lesson, from a Nashville studio player to some EweTuber guitarist who knew music but was completely unfamiliar with the pedal steel; a great video for anyone here who’s curious how the instrument works:

    This guy’s steel had ten footpedals, five or six kneelevers, and a second neck in a C6 tuning.  Sure wish I could’ve seen this back in ‘84, and right now I’m itching to find a double-neck and explore that C6 tuning; totally different sound!

    Was scrolling thru my video feeds and I saw one thumbnail pop out as a HDR, and my eyes popped when I saw it was Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass?!?!?  I was a big fan in... high school, and I'm 66 now.  Herb is Ninety-One Years Old, and he's on tour, and his chops are on the top their game!!!  Seeing this was NOT on my Lifetime Bingo Card.    

    It's past my bedtime, but I'll be watching the full concert tomorrow (with the ad-blocker on, ****-Tube still insists on shoving ads down my throat mid-song).  Enjoy!

    I only got to see Zappa live twice, and both shows were just amazing.

    The Red Clay Strays are putting out a new album June 5th. It's available for pre order on iTunes now. Yeah I'm supporting a local band from over around Mobile Alabama but their previous album was dynamite, ask Battleborn if I remember correctly.

    Musical hallucinations.  This week sounded like bandito banjos playing off in the distance.  They went missing last year,  good to get them back
