What you listening to today?

Not sure what’s going on here. A Russian band covering steely Dan. But damn it’s good and fun to watch

dang dude, you have made yourself worth keeping with this. I defy anyone not watching to try and tell me this wasn't actually Steely Dan. Just fantastic. I think I even chubbed up a little, but that's another story.


ETA...my three videos featured the sax, which I love in rock music. I don't know if this might have inspired you to post this but I am more than happy to have assisted in the segue.

That was excellent. They must be BIG fans as well. And, I could watch more of the middle background singer, Ksenia Buranov. Buzina.

sorry, had to make a small correction. She's more prominent here...

Yeah, I mixed two of their names up when typing. Shockingly, you knew exactly to whom I was referring and not the other one, lol. Great story,

Yea I admit it I like abba. Horrible choreography, cheesy outfits, lip-synching and all. Fact is though they pioneered numerous recording methods in use today. But bottom line is i just like the music. And the blonde just might be the hottest girl ever in pop music.

I was raised on bluegrass. My dad and uncle played banjoes. I rebelled against it my teen years just trying to be cool. I regret that. I missed out on a lot of good times. This is awesome

I think I posted here that when I was a kid, some guy came by selling accordion lessons, and my parents actually and surprisingly wanted me to be interested...but I wasn't, thinking who in the hell wants to play an accordion. Not cool, right?

I wish I had realized that an accordion or most any instrument can be what you make of it, and that learning any instrument opens the door to learning others. Stupid kid.

Lots of tears from me during this song.

As a former teacher of Special Ed students, so many times I witnessed how these students were treated by their care givers. When you work with many non verbal kids, you're bound to see some distressing signals of abuse of these students. Unfortunately, many go unreported. Even though there have been times I was retaliated against when I made the reports, I still took the time to do what I was required BY LAW to do, not to mention my true love and dedication to these children. False accusations leveled against me by care givers because of my true love of the students NEVER deterred me from doing the right thing for them.

IMO, there is no one worse than a person who has been entrusted either by God or by the govt to look after a child but chooses to abuse a child, especially those children who are unable to tell what is happening to them.

these kind of things tear at the heart so bad you almost can't play them.

Hey! @TarHeelMark

I thought you might enjoy this HD version of the Hyde Park show in July 1969 (2 days after Brian Jones died). I've NEVER seen such a high quality version.

Without him there's no Cream, no Clapton, no Fleetwood Mac, no really good Stones from 69-74

Interesting take from @strummingram's archenemy. I think he makes a pretty good argument.

Not an arch-enemy... just... I don't know.

Coincidentally, just last night I was talking with a close friend (she's a concert violinist/violist and teaches both), and I mentioned Beato and how I find his musical fatalist attitudes to just be boomer gloom-and-doom. Anyway, somehow, we got on the subject of John Williams. And, she turned me on to his "borrowing" from other composers. I said "He's like the Led Zeppelin of movie soundtrack composers!" I'm not incredibly familiar with classical music... being mostly a southern rube. I never thought about composers stealing from each other, but it's not unheard of at all. I saw this Beato video a week or so ago, but never watched it. Perfect timing.

Whether you like Fatboy Slim is irrelevant. This is worth it just for the video. What's not to love about Walken?
