Don't recall seeing that before. Enjoyed the hell out of it. Thanks.
Read a headline recently, unfortunately not the full story, where scientists claim to have deciphered why we respond to music. I doubt it, really, that that has been figured out. Funny though, or not, how religion and music seem just two of only several or so primal bonds to a shared humanity. Our souls seek harmony and rhythm it would seem, a replication of that watery rhythm heard as we gestate.
Spoken as an atheist and someone who doesn't listen to nearly as much music as I used to. My lack, perhaps.
Sorry, but upon reflection, I guess my inner hippie leaked out. All you brilliant young ladies will have no clue what I'm talking about, a few of the cranky old farts may.
I stayed out of that earlier 'experience' thread as I've stories that would bore, likely.
I'll retreat now, back to my autographed copy of 'BE HERE NOW'. :)
Thank you (& curse you) for posting this, lady red! Listened through a couple of times. I immediately recognized a few familiar faces (George Harrison, Ringo & Eric Clapton) but had to spend bit of time searching for the others. Oddly enough (for me at least) that's Dave Edmunds right next to Carl. I know his voice, but don't think I've ever actually seen what he looks like. Down the line is Rosanne Cash, who appears to have made great effort to ensure that future generations will be able to tell this was recorded in the 80s. Just to the right of Ringo is- presumably- Slim Jim Phantom from the Stray Cats. I've no idea who the last two are. Standing in back on the far right is (I think) Lee Rocker, of The Stray Cats, on bass.
Now off to sleep. There's going to be plenty of snow to shovel in the morning.
Ah- the drummer (in the pink jacket- yeah, it was the 80s) appears to be Dave Charles. There a good shot of him at 37 seconds which seems to match this image of him (he's in the middle).
At the end of the line would be Earl Slick of "Phantom, Rocker & Slick" fame. This clip is from "Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session". Carl Perkins and his rockabilly buddies. Good tunes and a few good laughs.

Wow, Ringo's shoes and socks are great. What a neat video, lady red, thanks. I only recognized George, Eric and Ringo. Great way to start the morning.
I notice that Clapton did not do a chord-based solo. That's a shame. I know it isn't his style, but that is the style of the music he was playing here.
George rocked his solo.
Oh, I liked your blog too, Rod. Thanks for coming in here.

I had found a listing of the lineup, but was having trouble matching the names to thee faces. I can't believe we got the answer so quickly. Thanks for stopping in.

I'm glad you like it Luther! Carl Perkins is a favorite of mine. :)

ReplyDeleteYou guys are GOOD! I knew a few of the participants, but not all. Thanks for putting names to faces. :)
ReplyDeleteRod, I just visited your place. What a cool theme for a blog! Did you just start it?

Thee? Hmmmm...
ReplyDeleteI didn't even notice Ringo's shoes, florrie. I guess I was too distracted trying to decide if everyone looked so young, or so old.
