Sunday: The Return

Unearthed timeless possessions, finding myself in regression, but somehow in sync with this sense of place, leads to this song succession:

..and so in the beginning...



...awakening...



Click, click, click..




Ruby shoes bring heat...



This is a gem...



This must be the tune...I also suggest checking out the Stop Making Sense version!



...can't find your way? Miss Bonnie will show you...



Speaks for itself.



Another take on it, and done well...great tune...



Who can forget Johnny D? Take ME home...



He's got something fo sho...



And kick your feet up, finally..

Viernes en La Primavera...

The greatest lost track of all time:
The Late Greats' "Turpentine"
You can't hear it on the radio
You can't hear it anywhere you go

The best band will never get signed
K-Settes starring Butcher's Blind
Are so good, you won't ever know
They never even played a show
You can't hear 'em on the radio

The greatest singer in rock and roll
Would have to be Romeo
His vocal chords are made of gold
He just looks a little too old

The greatest lost track of all time:
The Late Greats' "Turpentine"
I can't hear it on the radio
I don't hear it anywhere I go

The best song will never get sung
The best life never leaves your lungs
So good, you won't ever know
I never hear it on the radio
Can't hear it on the radio

-Wilco

El Jueves...

Well, I am still on fire from the Atoms For Peace show in NYC
(*Click on band name for link to clip that gives a small taste of what we locked into)

That being said, the list is for your Thursday, good times, weekend or whatever, but certainly for all kinds of deep grooves...

We start with the master from his epic 1971 Paris performance. The video DOES clear up soon after it starts and is well worth sticking around for the guitar solo (Ain't it Funky)...



How can we not drop Herbie in on this party?



Which leads to a more modern, but somewhat familiar sound:



This hip shaker was is probably still ahead of it's time...

Has this week dragged past you so slowly?
I know a band that covers this tune REALLY well...




Gonna slow it up to "ladies choice" for this skate, for one of my favorite tunes...EVER. Grab a partner.



If we are talking bout funk, we probably should bring in the horns...like T.O.P? Prob. They know what hipness is. (be sure to check out the original recording as well!)



What is Hip? TV on the Radio...This is a fire-starter. "Fela" keys and raging horns...



Every person in the world should check out the early Pointer Sisters stuff...ie...




...and last but NOT least, the dude who made this all happen...

Perhaps my favorite guy around right now after the show I saw him put on last night.

Enjoy. Rock it this weekend.
