Little Feat fans may appreciate this rare live radio performance from 1973...the audio quality ain't that great but damn what a fine set of musicians. The groove is just top notch throughout.

Love Jake Thackray, will have to check that out Steve.




John Watterson plays the occasional live show under the guise of 'Fake' Thackray. This album, and his live work are obviously a labour of love in helping keep the memory and music of Jake alive. His delivery is uncannily like Jake - it's hard to listen without continually having to remind yourself that it isn't the man himself singing.

Nice find! According to what I see, they only have one album... Too bad.  Oh well, this one goes on the "To Get" list!

Quite like these guys, sort of David Bowie meets Captain Beefheart.

Five Hand Reel - Hauges o' Cromdale


That one needs English subtitles.
 
Luckily, I never listen to lyrics anyway.

Stumbled onto a local band.  Heard a song used as a backing track, whipped out my Soundhound app and found it was called Hallways by a band named Pocketknife off of a 2014 album called Dying To Pretend.  The songs seemed pretty catchy so I figured I'd support 'em!  You can listen to the whole album from here:  https://pocketknife.bandcamp.com/album/dying-to-pretend

I have enjoyed both of the CD's and this Live one, however, I find this a bit too much on the metal side of things, which with the folks in question is not surprising, however, TL is fine here, but really not as great a Chapman Stick player on this stuff, as I think things could be, and I think that some of this may have been due to the mix, which is all drums and guitar and incidental volume to the bass and keyboards, which makes them less valuable, and in my book (... in my book ... ), lowers the quality of the music all around.
 
But there are some really nice moments in here. Mostly based on JP's guitar work, though, I think.
 
After seeing Nick Beggs with SW, I am thinking that he and Don Schiff (Rocket Scientists -- from LA), are probably the best two Stick players in rock music. Maybe I'm thinking that TL is studying the notes a bit too much. He was much freer and loose with PG and better, although with KC, it's both in my estimation.
