What a unique sound. I’m surprised I’d never heard of her. I don’t keep up on a lot of artists these days, but this is why I like this thread; to hear some old forgotten classics, and learn of talented artists I didn’t know about.

I had not watched The Gentlemen until recently and I cannot get his out of my head. Good grief it’s amazing.
A song for you is one of my all time favorites. Ray Charles did a great version too. But I like Leon’s best.
Anyway. Enough 70s beards and old farts. Taylor Swift’s latest dropped. Girl’s a genius. Has an entire generation of girls eating out of her palm.
So this has just been posted within the past couple days and it's a really great cover. It's not the same level as the original or even the JC cover, but this version has a beautiful element of melodic harmony that neither Bruce's original or Johnny's cover provide...
And having the two brothers provides a thematic element as well...
This popped into my head today, probably hadn't heard it in 40+ yrs. I saw this tour live in Indy, with Linda Ronstadt opening...
And it's not possible to just post one Neil classic...
So this popped up on my feed a couple of days ago, and I found it pretty extraordinary.
Not only were these two inspired to compose and perform a brilliant tribute to Emmylou in front of her, at the 2015 Polar awards celebration in Stockholm which is stunning enough. But the way they incorporated the early work with Gram inspired me to revisit some of that magic...
Grievous Angel
Love this version of Sin City off of Elite Hotel...
And the heartbreakingly beautiful tribute to Gram, Boulder To Birmingham...
Bruce finally did Stern yesterday, and several videos are making the rounds. Here is a discussion and solo piano performance of Tougher, live from the interview...
Discussion of composing the BTR album (on piano), with a performance of Thunder Road
This is a stunning story about Bruce playing LOHAD at Clarence's hospital bedside, as C died following his stroke...
So this was just uploaded in the last day or so. A folksie cover of probably my favorite song off of Late For the Sky, and easily in my top 15 Jackson Browne songs ever. Such a lyrical masterpiece, that Springsteen referenced this song in particular while inducting JB in the RRHOF. And Jackson is actually featured and contributes background vocals to this rendition which makes it even more memorable...
Back to Late For the Sky and more incredible songwriting and the incomparable instrumental wizardry of David Lindley. A song that JB often dedicated live to friends who basically made up his "second family", like Warren and Crystal Zevon...
Another brilliant JB song, covered by Bonnie with Jackson in the background. I'd have preferred they trade off verses because Lyrically this song needs some element of male vocal lead. But JB is perfectly content to let Bonnie shine and her voice is awesome...
Speaking of Warren Z, here's a rollicking version of Poor Poor Pitiful Me from a 1982 performance at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic. And when in Jersey, you cover the Boss...
I'm a sucker for songs with a historical perspective. So the lyrics and infectious melody of this song hooked me the moment I first heard the Excitable Boy album. It deals with the US occupation of Veracruz in 2014 following the Tampico affair, recounted from the perspective of Mexican residents uprooted by the invasion. Produced and backing vocals from JB...
Another of the seemingly thousands of classic songs that Lee Sklar played bass on. And again produced by JB...

I have only now, reached a point of enlightenment to realize.. Zack Brown Band "Chicken fried"
The vocals are on the half (up) note, not the instrumentation. I've been trying to perfecting my air drums, an entire 1/2 note behind the whole damn time.
Like... Eff man!

I swear we had a " lyrics thread". I went back 16 pages,,, looking back, Damn we're eff'ed up.
I was having a moment with "A picture is worth a thousand words, but you should have seen it in color"
But then I had slammed in my face;
"Maybe it's time to let the old ways die". (bradley cooper., Music match; circlec 2000-2022 AZLyrics.com)
Another conflicting night.
