"Rock & Roll"

I saw and heard him perform this song live at the NY Academy of Music a few eons ago.
I was reminded of Lou Reed by this lovely artwork I've just seen (thank you Joao)

I don't even remember so much of the show as I do the years of re-listening to this specific song, with a good set of speakers or phones, so it might sound like what I experienced in the great acoustical theater (where I worked for a long time). Anyway, like some of the Jimi Hendrix riffs which sent shivers down my spine (thinking Paligap, Red House - songs by request, miss you VTE ...

This rif in the middle just took my breath away, still does after all these dazel.... But listen to the whole thing first, maybe.

An all-time rock guitar riff, beginning 4:11

One more dangling response to yesterday's loss of "The Queen of Rock and Roll". (R.I.P. Tina Turner)

Don't Try To Lay No Boogie-Woogie On The King of Rock & Roll

If Tina Turner was queen, Long John Baldry may have been a king.
From his 1971 album, "It Ain't Easy".

Sort of consistent with Levon Helm's take on how you take some Southern music roots, add blues, stir, and what do you call it? "Rock & Roll". John Baldry was a wonderful blender of his local (British) blend of influences of blues, rock, and "boo-gee woo-gie"... 🎹 🎸

Up top of a new post....

One of my very favorite bands and a favorite song of theirs, following some reading and posting about The Band, The Last Waltz, and comments/discussions regarding both the cut-throat rivalries over writing credits and royalties as well as issues of drug abuse, sometimes to the point of overdose &/or suicide.

'It's those rock and roll hours, early graves without flowers..." - Little Feat/Skin It Back

Listen loud &/or earphones - they were one of the premier bands who were masters of studio recording, and Lowell George played a mean slide guitar (the whole band was razor-sharp tight). 🎧

Skin It Back" - Little Feat/Skin It Back

Well I'm waitin' for something to take place
Something to take me away from this race
'Round city to city, town to town
Runnin' around in the shoes of a clown
And that desperate, no count, desperado
A thief of love, my business is the street
I be shakin' 'em down
In old Colorado
Texas she's nice, but Georgia's oh so sweet
Steal away with me darlin' your lovin' just can't be beat
So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what
I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move
You're a dream, and that's all that I ask for
So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you
Skin it back (skin it back)
Somethin' real, somethin' to feel
I can't find a soul who'll take on this mess
It's those rock and roll hours, early graves without flowers
Please, please darlin' put my mind at rest
I'm beggin' please darlin' put my mind at rest
So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what
I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move
You're a dream, and that's all that I ask for
So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you
Skin it back tell it to you
Skin it back tell it to you
Skin it back tell it to you
Skin it back tell it to you

America

Not only has America been eligible for induction into the Rock Hall since 1997, they’ve never been nominated. Their 1971 debut self-titled album featured the international hit “A Horse With No Name,” success they followed up with in singles like “Ventura Highway,” “Lonely People” and “Sister Golden Hair.” They’ve won multiple Grammys and were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2006.

Married 7 times, including to his 13-year-old cousin, he lived a life of controversy - and an immense contribution to R&R.
