A friend just sent me a vid of Andy and his Lady Gaga Carnaval routine. Andy did it again! Great.
Was gonna bring up some Lady Gaga tunes. Instead, my fried brain synapses just went cruising for other stuff, since I don't have permission from Andy or my friend that took the vid to post it:

And yes, I really like a lot of Jenny Scheinman's work (crazy with great talent) and I'm always a sucker for Mex "Norteno" music (although I wouldn't be caught dead in a TexMex bar/music joint these days on the other side of the border (oops, maybe I phrased that the wrong way, Freudian slip.))

Missed it. But, Youtube has some great snippets.
I'm just starting to view. This is a "skippy" version (The vid has some pauses and jumps) of one of the gods of guitar WITH Rhonda Smith on bass - tasty.

This is gonna take a while to go through all of these vids. Glad Booker T is getting some well deserved recognition in being musical director.
There have been some complaints that there were too many white musicians. BS. Some of these folks absorbed the blues and introduced it to many of us. Talk about walking into a new universe after discovering all of the original and new masterpieces.

Blues music is everywhere. I first met Shemekia's father (Johnny Copeland, aka Johnny Clyde) in Paris where he was playing at a midsize hall (New Morning) and all the Parisians were in awe. ("Watcha doin' here all the way in the north of Paris? Came to see you. You were always a BSer I could put up with. Wanna sit in? Nope, I'd only make ya look bad. OK, see ya at [so-and-so] club in Detwah? I'll be there. (I was and he was.))
Buddy Guy is always glad to help someone getting started. A bunch of music heroes. Glad the prez did it.
IMHO. Playing the blues well, like any form of music, requires heart, musical skills, nuancing a phrase and conviction that ya can deal with life and pass that feeling on to others.
Another crappy vid. Amazing stuff.

Missy,
We have gone to every "production" our kids were in. Go to all the grandkids' "shows." Even when some of them played (and play) now in clubs where we're considered too old too pay the cover charge (Oh, your're the parents of the band...
) PRICELESS.
I know I shouldn't draw political references from EE here. Forgive me mods I have, kinda, sinned.
Dgirl referenced "the One." IMHO, this tune speaks to those that want to be "THE ONE."
