Here we have one of mine, its actually arguably Toad The Wet Sprocket's first big hit. I think its cool seeing bands in early "gigs". The first song they play here:



Here is a later performance:

We've been posting my favorite tune for the last couple of days so I won't link it here.

"I don't care anymore" - Phil Collins (Hello I Must Be Going)

That song got me through some pretty bad divorce days.

Another good one from them...

For the lyric and for the exceptional guitar!
One of many.

Not professionals, just a couple of guys who enjoy making pretty music. I have the privilege of sitting in on jams each week, with folks like these two. It has enhanced our lives greatly.

My favorite recording of one of my absolute favorite songs. There are some moments in this recording that just grab hold of me and won't let go:



This legendary concert was nearly eighty years ago now, and we almost never got to hear it:

There never would have been a recording of the concert if Albert Marx had not taken the initiative. Marx was married to Helen Ward, who was Benny's vocalist from 1934-1937. He decided to record the concert as an anniversary present for Helen. Two copies were ordered, one for Helen and one for Benny....

Goodman's 1938 Carnegie Hall jazz concert was different from the commercial release and from subsequent performances with the Goodman band. The personnel of the Goodman band for the Carnegie Hall concert were the same as in the 1937 recording session, except Vernon Brown replaced Murray McEachern on trombone, and Babe Russin replaced Vido Musso on tenor sax.

Goodman's solo is more introspective in the Carnegie performance, with a wider range of dynamics and colors, with Krupa playing a pulsating tom-tom accompaniment accented on the third beat of the measure behind Goodman for the first half of the solo, while Jess Stacy inserts minor-chord punctuations. Goodman's solo evolves to a driving 'four' feel before quietly giving way to Stacy's famous solo, a four-chorus, chromatic impressionistic masterpiece widely analyzed by pianists both jazz and classical. Stacy was quoted as saying he was glad he did not know Goodman was going to let him solo, because then he would have gotten nervous and "screwed it up."

This guy had many hits in England but only one in the U.S.
Stories of his weird behavior were unknown in 1959.
