The official "What are you listening to right now?" thread

Absolutely loved this song from the moment I heard it. The original studio version has, IMHO the crispest drum sound of all. But I like to see live performers and Vinnie is amazing as well.

This is a great performance. I thought about Glenn Frey the other day because I remembered seeing him on Dan Patrick not too long before he died. I believe Jackson Browne co-wrote this song. A real banger. RIP Glenn.

The last several posts are the reason I always check this thread first :slight_smile:

Some lesser known guitarists and what I’ve been listening to tonight… how about two Greens, and two Freddies:

You won’t hear Freddie Green (except for his world class comping) until around four and a half minutes in, but then you’re treated to the master of Jazz Guitar understatement’s idea of a chord solo.

Peter Green, with Fleetwood Mac, who is way too little known, considering his talent.

Freddie Robinson, who I was privileged to see at the old Terrace Ballroom with Mayall in the early 70’s, was a jazz/blues fusion player before the genre was invented.

This was also written by Crosby

He had a reputation as a fairly difficult person, but he produced some great music.

When I was about 17, I heard this song in an old Marx Brothers Movie, at the old Blue Mouse Theater.
I went back, recorded it in the next showing, wrote out the lyrics, sounded out and learned the guitar chords, and taught it to my 5 younger siblings. The following fathers day, we gave my father a tie, and sang this song to him. He laughed and laughed, and it was the only time I ever saw him cry.

He’s been gone now for 10 days short of 14 years. I heard the tune last night on the PBS special " Groucho & Cavett" and laughed and cried. Here is a brief YouTube version of the song:

I too am sad about the passing of David Crosby. Saw CSN in concert in Gainesville back in 1982. Way good. Loved the music and the harmony. So I offer a lesser known song written by Crosby, which ties into an area of Florida that I always thought was paradise, but not so much now after Hurricane Ian. I hope you like it as much as I.

Ringo Starr is coming to Salt Lake. This is the best song George Harrison wrote for Ringo.

The song was already a little creepy. This runs it off the Creep Chart.
