Bonzos are special. Make sure to hunt down Grimms and Scaffold.

Strawbs - Heavy Disguise. Always loved this John Ford song from Grave New World. Robert Kirby's brass arrangement is terrific! Things have not changed that much in 44 years, the lyrics are a relevant today as then.
 

 
Here is a live version from a 2006 reunion, sadly no brass - Check out John's hairstyle!!

 
 
 

More Strawbs - An all guitar acoustic version of the previously keyboard heavy Autumn

 
I have seen them in this configuration a couple of times in the past 5 years, always entertaining even if Dave Cousins voice has grown even more croaky with age. (might actually be holding up better than Dave Lambert)

Been watching these little vids of Joey Landreth playing various vintage guitars. Man, those 60 year old guitars sound wonderful.
 

 

Belated Columbus Day offering

 

First time I heard of this harp guitar.....sounds very nice.
 

 
 

 

I felt like something very different today, and happily discovered a Dub version of Bowie's Lets Dance:

Enjoyed this during dinner a couple of nights ago and finished it during lunch today.  It was fun watching August since he's one of my California "Hollywood" friends that I've only seen a couple of times since I moved up to the Pacific Northwest.  Once, I provided the entire backline and backup instruments (except for the drums) for a band he was in that played a casino gig up here in Washington.  I got to play roadie and make some noise during the soundcheck.  That was fun.
