Throwback Saturday !

Dogue in teh desert
Post a live performance of GOOD music from a band you like(d) back in teh day cuz' it's Throwback Saturday.....!!11!

For instance Mudhoney. By far the best band outa that whole Seattle thing...why you ask? Because they were raw and real and you sense that they woulda been doing it their way (style) regardless.
In any era (well maybe not the 1950's or 40's) but any era this just ranks...the epitome of grage RAWK.

So here is Mudhoney featuring TOM PETTY on vocals (well at least a TP lookalike in Mark Arm)

 
One of my favorite songs by America, and nicely played. It is a shame the guitars sound like crap. (I am not blaming it on being Ovations, I blame it on poor choice of tone on the amps.)
 
The one and only ... the Soulful, the Dynamic .... Ladies and Gentlemen!! Mr. Lou RAWLS!!"



I don't care, IMHO this man is the greatest male blues vocalist of all time.

Oh my Lord. Such command of the audience.


Best live version of "St. James Infirmary" ever recorded:

Funny how one "You'll Never Find" can eclipse how talented (and funky) the man could be. Thanks.

You ain't kidding, though that one supremely smooth, gorgeous hit allowed Lou to live very comfortably for the rest of his life.

His early stuff, though, when paired with dudes like Les McCann, adds maybe 4 songs to the Great American Blues Songbook.

If you don't like this one, you may not even like guitar.

If you like David Lee Roth, this one is a must...Jim Dandy who was supposedly one of the Roth blueprints (or the blueprint).
