Ahem, Where is Boston's "Hitch A Ride?" Or "Man I'll Never Be" RR7? Just joking!
I love those 2 lesser played tracks myself.
SW1 likes it when rock stars drop their defenses & allow themselves to be vulnerable. Plus, I have a soft spot for power ballads. Always have; always will.
I like crisp studio tracks on ballads with no feedback whatsoever. It's how I roll.

Checkout Amanda Brown laying down a Chris Cornell classic @RustonRifle#7:
This cover gives me goosebumps man. The brass section, the beautiful tribute to the legend, & women getting their grove on always makes me smile.
Plus, I was in both band & chorus in school so, I know how hard it is to pull this track off & sound polished. Amazing!

I wasn't sure where to put this so, I decided to drop it here. Some rockin' with Dokken classic "Unchain the Night" high caliber cover material...
For @TheRustonRifle#7, @Lollygagger8, @malakai432 or anyone else who grew up on this band. The guitarist Rocco Pezzin replicates George Lynch's tones to perfection IMHO. Superb job!

before early passing's that signature voice for the group was amazing, esp in great remake origianally quit old cover songs or remakes of old songs with different titles that became major hits, Going up the country especially & on the road again , the latter was a remake of a guy named tom Johnson i thing under a different name but remade as on the road again in the 1950's & based on tom Johnson big railroad blues & tom Johnsons group of the 1920's was called Canned Heat Blues , thus their name, Many of those that played for canned heat instead played later I think for John Mayall
wilson played a great harmonica
Roling & Tumbling also a goody they , muddy waters and many did versions of
I think i have my facts generally right , any way if not just work with me or as Canned heat also sang Lets Work Together - & on that notes lets hope all Colt players & staff work together

All great selections RR7! I need to give my brother Jay Kirk credit for posting Blackfoot's "Highway Song" a long time ago when we 1st became friends on the Forum. I love that number man. I never get tired of it no matter how many times I play it.
I knew of Blackfoot as a band, but it had been awhile since I listened to them. Jay's deserves major props for reminding me how great this group was again & still is.
You Rock Jay!

Whoa RR7. I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your father so abruptly due to a broken healthcare system & insufficient medical professionalism & human compassion for the living family members suffering in agony in silence. I know how cold, heartless, & stoic some Dr.s & nurses can be.
I realize that medical school conditions them to deliver bad news with no emotions, but it still feels excruciating nevertheless.
Thx for your generosity as well RR7. It's an honor to call you a friend too. I'm still sorting some things out, but if I need anyone to lean on, I'll definitely reach out 2 U.

I appreciate that @TheRustonRifle#7. Music is kind of my thang as you are already well aware. I do admire your diverse tastes across many different eras & genres.
Sorry I haven't written you yet. I'm horrible at getting back to people. I still need to reply back to @lollygagger8 too. I'll get around too it eventually. Thank you both for your patience.
Don't ask me why put every time I hear this song, I always picture friends getting hammered responsibly of course with their favorite alcoholic beverage on a breezy summer day....
It's called "Shanty" by Johnathan Edwards. The harmonic player is fantastic.
-
I know I posted this before, but this is hands down my favorite STP song. I never get tired of listening to it or playing percussion on it. Time to hit the Interstate & spread some love baby.
"...Leaving on a Southern train
Only yesterday you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be...Breathing is the hardest thing to do...You li hi ed."
This song is so infectious. You hear it once & never forget it.

Elite 8 bound 'Cuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take that NCAA!

I was watching a program on Direct TV saved on my DVR last night. The same live concert performing "Find Your Way Back" in it on channel 500 otherwise known as the audience channel. Anyway, the lead singer says something to the effect of 'We Built This City" is the worst song that everyone in the crowd always wants to hear on stage no matter what city they are playing in.
I kind of took offense to that remark since fans who buy tickets, merchandise, purchase cable & satellite subscriptions really enjoy certain numbers & our loyalty to a band & our willingness to open our wallets makes their lear jet, limo standard of living lifestyle possible. Never bite the hand that literally feeds you.
Look, I get it on some level. We Built This City is a simple non sophisticated song & it's hard to do a set list of mostly the same songs night after night in a new location for say a yr straight. You wanna know what the difference is headliner musicians have a career as opposed to a job they hate going to everyday just to pay bills & put food on the table. Most of us don't have the luxury of loving what we do as an occupation. That reality of a career vs a job is extremely rare among the masses.
I do respect musicians & comedians on this level though. They always confront stage fright & subject themselves to potential rejection, backlash, & humiliation every single time you walk out on stage. There's incredible bravery in being that vulnerable night after night. Plus, every once in awhile; true chemistry & magic is formed on stage between the audience & the musicians playing live. It can be the best or worst feeling in the world depending on the reaction & feedback you get. That's why I hold musicians & comedians in such high regard both amateur & professional.

Hey, since my previous entry above dealt with my admiration for comedians & their ability to lay it on the line symbolically naked before an audience; because no standup has any control over how their material will be received on any given night. I found this comedian named Tom Thakkar hilarious. He's a Hoosier State native. Pay particular attention to mark 3:20 on in the Conan O'Brien video.
I'm not condoning any statement prior to the football related discussion at all & I do apologize in advance for the minor curse word used moderators.
PS: To my NE friends like @GoPats, @Flying Elvis, & @Yehoodi etc. This routine is all in good fun as an AFC rivalry thing. Yes, I know INDY is having a down yr to be charitable. I know that & I have no personal animosity toward #12. Thanks for be cool, stand up guys fellas!
