Continuing on for our late night crew (and amurka audience) here's a snatch from the Woodstock Anniversary at the New York State Museum.  Featuring, this time, the full band, with the Rock of Ages horns (for those of you familiar with horn sections, that's freakin Bones Malone on Trombone... "A Century of the Blues"...  Professor Louie and the Crowmatix!

And for a final homage to the first of the New Depression's Anthems, with a nod to The Band, here's The Weight.

Whether this is your music or not, and while my 22 years in San Francisco make me call it "home,", my real home is the Catskill Mountains (borderline Mohawk country), and this brings me home.  Thanks Professor Louie and the Crowmatix.

End of Werbung.

From the first to the second, what a difference a decent venue maketh!  Those soft walls and soft bodies soak up the harsh edges, take down the treble...  Who is it here who builds sound spaces?  Is it AR Geezer?  What a great job!  I could maybe go half and half, half my time I will try and be useful around Wind Power people, the other half I will try and be helpful when setting up acoustic environments.  I'm learning maths--but I'm slow!

So, in the spirit of the third track, I will take a load off and, for THE Twank--:

ET's 20 Big Ideas

;) I think I may have misunderstood something...but dat iz nature-elle!

And for both of yez: this must be my Shostakovich phase--I'm not by nature a fan of the string quartet, but here is part of one.  Particular!  I was suddenly imagining I was Mozart, listening to this music, nodding, while thinking...hmmm...

And especially for Crazy Horse -- those soft walls and bodies, yeah!  Suddenly I get a vision...."a baritone Roy Orbison"....time for bed!

hey rg, thanks for the Shostakovich (strong) and that baritone Roy Orbison.  Here's the same band for the environmentalists in the crowd...
Los Lobos "Will the Wolf Survive"

more great musical memories as the world burns. Mexican rock in LA,
"all alone in a world in pain... but he'll find his wings...
Singing songs of passion... will the wolf survive...

nite all, once again.
