here's a 44-year old song, but still makes for good background listening while working away online . . . very few have ever heard the full 25:46 version and too many focus in on the piano, organ and bells (obviously) parts when it's got a subtle yet sublime baseline running throughout

Fellow Music Aficionado - - - while YT reminiscing today I stumbled upon an old favorite from wayback (1977) - - Mr. Rusty Wier from the STACKED DECK album, before he sold out a bit to more popular tunes following the Urban Cowboy trend.  Enjoy!

Upright Bass 101 - - regardless of the musical style NEVER look at your hands

In fact, it might be better if you just close your eyes all together.

Music of the Day:  DARRELL SCOTT

One of my favorite singer / songwriters, he's done some really good stuff (ref: You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive) but I really was blown away by his picking style on this one today and just thought I would share.  Enjoy!

Want to know how to become "THE WORLD'S BEST GUITAR PLAYER" or make a difference in anything you do?

STEP 1 - - identify those things you know you do not know.

STEP 2 - - learn how to do those things . . . or at least try.

Your musical assignment of the day: 

Listen to all and decide for yourself . . . who did it better?

starting with the original:

There are thousands of other versions and many many bands, both well known and of the garage variety, have covered the song in every style imaginable over the past 50 years so I'll spare you sitting through the likes of Skid Row and TheCorrs and Ottmar Liebert and Popa Chubby (unless you just really want to dig deeper on your own), but you owe it to yourself to end the assignment with THIS ONE.

You're welkomm!

MUSIC LESSON TIME!

I was listening to some old Dr. John and Leon Russell stuff today, which led into history on The Wrecking Crew (look it up ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkMDcuA_qTg ) and ended up spending an hour listening to this great interview with Carol Kaye . . . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Kaye

Carol Kaye (born March 24, 1935) is an American musician, known as one of the most prolific and widely heard bass guitarists, playing on an estimated 10,000 recordings in a career spanning over 50 years

I'm not a musician, just an appreciator, so much of the technical stuff she gets into are way over my head, but I really enjoyed the story telling and listening to how many of the innovative riffs she came up with over the years have influenced the sound of both rock & roll legends and today's modern music.

I'll just leave it here for when you have the time to get into it.  ENJOY!
