Cool! Duly noted on the ever growing list of cds to buy
I will also recommend Live At The Old Quarter, the music is great. The feel of the album is very warm, and you'll be in treat to some fine jokes by him. I also have Our Mother the Mountain, and would highly recommend getting that one as well.

Many, many musicians have been sidelined over the years and have gone on to create tons of great music. How does Johnson undergoing a medical procedure and taking some time to rest constitute "the beginning of the end"?
Levon Helm comes to mind. Throat cancer in the late 1990's, beating it, singing once again at the Midnight Ramble in 2004, and releasing two great albums soon after.

Thanks, that's a great site. Still, I haven't been able to find out if there's an opening act (or who it is) for Wednesday night's show in Durham. I'll have to go back and dig a little deeper.
5th Avenue Vampires, Dennis Dunaway is in the band.

I got an email from AliceCooper.com yesterday for my ticket to see him on the 30th, thanks to the pre-sale I have a seat in the third row. Still haven't been able to find out who's opening but I'm looking very forward to my first Alice show ever.
I've read that his voice has held up quite well, if he plays in L.A. I might go see him and would also be my first time seeing him.

Black Sabbath is amazing! First six albums are perfect at least for me. They lost their "magic" with the last two Ozzy-era albums but were re-energized with Dio. They only released one official live album of the band in their prime with Ozzy on vocals (Past Lives), but there are some great bootlegs out there.

This is kind of funny.

Early Alice Cooper. My favorite albums are Killer and Billion Dollar Babies.

Recently I bought You Are The Music...We're just The Band by Trapeze. Members include Mel Galley, David Holland, and Glenn Hughes and was released in 1972.

Thank you for posting the link.
No problem. I really like his music and would love for others to listen to him.
is a music video of Summer Skin from his first album. :-) -
Just ordered this on vinyl. Take a listen to a few new songs of his from this new album here. First album was really good, new folk artist.

Speaking of ZZ Top, I just caught them on a new installment of Storytellers on VH1 Classic. Only thing is, there weren't a lot of actual stories. It was more like a Q & A with the audience. Still very good though and quite entertaining. Hard to believe they're about to celebrate their 40th anniversary.
Really cool that they played a gig for only one person in their early years.

Last night I saw Graveyard at the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles. I was really excited to see them play and my expectations were met and more and what made it more good for me was that I was in the first row. Thank you Sweden and more importantly thank you Graveyard.

Is that Ray's latest album? I only heard a couple of songs by him, but what little I've heard I really like.
Yes his third and latest album, Gossip in the Grain. It's definitely one of those albums that you want in physical form, vinyl record for me.

Ray Lamontagne
A good number of people know of him but if you don't I highly recommend you listen to his music, it's good. Folk with R&B, blues and country.
-
I've only gotten one or two listens to both albums but man they are great. Good buys.

Baby, Please Don't Go - Big Joe Williams

Does anyone else find Jailbreak to be a really underrated song?
I think it is underrated, should have been released in the High Voltage album( US), it wasn't maybe that's why.
Music video is great too.

Happy Birthday, Bon Scott...
Happy Birthday, Bon – you and your music are still very much in our hearts.
Gone, but definitely not forgotten. It’s hard to imagine the legendary AC/DC frontman approaching pension age, but Bon Scott would have turned 63 today if he was still with us.
Of course, tragically, it’s almost 30 years since we lost the great Bon at the age of only 33. But even today, people everywhere remember Bon in their own way.
There’s a plaque in the small town of Kirriemuir in Angus, Scotland, Bon’s birth place, that commemorates one of the town’s most famous sons. [it’s other most famous son is JM Barrie, author of Peter Pan.] In Fremantle, Bon’s adopted town outside Perth, there’s a big bronze statue of the singer.
Just this week, a hardcore fan in Fremantle has started up The Highway to Hell tour, which takes Acca Dacca fans to all the significant Bon-related places around Fremantle. It starts at the statue at Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour, then travels past Bon’s childhood home, his schools, Fremantle Prison [where the singer did a short stint], ending up at Bon's recently refurbished grave site in Fremantle Cemetery.
Over in New York a couple of weeks ago, a couple of Bon’s old notebooks – featuring his handwritten lyrics to 25 songs including utter classics like “High Voltage”, “TNT” and “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap” – sold for $44,000 at Christie’s, the world’s most prestigious auction house.
Around the same time in Melbourne at this year’s APRA Awards, AC/DC’s 30-year old classic “Highway to Hell” won the prize for the Most Played Australian Work Overseas … for 2008!!!
Happy Birthday, Bon – you and your music are still very much in our hearts.
In commemoration, check out this video of Bon rocking out with his bagpipes...
