Jazz-ish? Fun, at any rate.

@bagman67, thanks for posting the David Fiuczynski Youtube version. I really enjoyed it, I need to check out some more of his stuff at some point.

And a version of Billy Cobham's Stratus certainly belongs

So here it is. Slightly off-topic for the thread, but as it was discussed earlier.

The guitar looks cool. I notice his hair has changed from gray to dark, perhaps the new signature guitar has literally turned back the clock!!

I saw Koko Taylor on a double bill with Buddy Guy, years ago on a booze cruise around manhattan. That was fun.

I have seen Koko Taylor and Buddy Guy too though not at same concert. Both outdoors though.

Your Gold Teeth II - Steely Dan

Are you listening to enough Wes?!!

Are you listening to enough Wes?!!

It's impossible to listen to enough Wes. It's like eating potato chips (or crisps, if you're @stratamania or otherwise a speaker of The King's* English) - you can't eat just one!

*I remembered! ER II has gone on ahead. Long live the King.

Chick Corea gets it done, with Steve Gadd on drums, Eddie Gomez on bass, and Bob Berg on tenor sax.

 

[bagman67]

Another live show, this time with Herbie Hancock on piano, the too-soon departed Michael Brecker on sax, the similarly lamented Roy Hargrove on trumpet, George Mraz on bass, and Willie Jones III on drums.

 

[bagman67]

Continuing my streak of posting live shows - here's guitarist Julian Lage's trio with Jorge Roeder on bass and Eric Doob on drums. It's audio-only, but still a wonderful listen.

I've been to a half dozen Julian Lage shows and never been disappointed. Do yourself a favor and go see him when he's in your neighborhood. He tours relentlessly, so you'll get a chance.

Sammy Davis Jr - Mr. Bojangles (Live in Germany 1985)

Sammy Davis Jr - Mr. Bojangles (Live in Germany 1985)

What a huge talent that man embodied. Singing, dancing, acting, and a badass on the skins AND piano AND vibes AND AND AND (plus a very important civil rights activist):

 

[stratamania]

@bagman67 absolutely a true talent and entertainer.

I am not sure if I posted this before in the thread, but in any case...

Emily Remler From the MI Vault


Musicians Institute

A treasure trove of licks and lines.

That woman could swing her @ss off. Such a loss when she departed the stage so young.

Edit: Steve Bailey looks like he's 16 years old in that video!
