Remember Dooleys in Tempe? Probably the wildest guitar show I will ever see was put on by Ronnie Montrose and his band Gamma there. Dude was off the hook.Originally Posted by Phillbo

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Very interesting. I'd like to see how that was built.

This has been a whole new adventure to me. I don't know that I have ever heard George Thorogood before---and he is the whitest black dude I ever did see---and that is a compliment

I am sure this has been posted before---but this just came up in rotation and made me stop working to turn all my attention to listening---what a lovely lady with a lovely voice

The side bar got me again, Dave! This time I found a collection of her songs titled "The Album That Never Was". A collection of her works apparently put together by a fan.
I am just now starting to listen, but it is Alison, so it has to be good.There is usually a long interval between Alison Krauss albums. But she does much outside her own published work. This is a collection of songs that Alison has performed in other venues and on the albums of others. From folk to classic rock and pop, from bluegrass to children's songs, from ballads to country to jazz, Dr Krauss here demonstrates the depth and the passion of her gift.

Great---thank you---and thank you for introducing me to this treasure some years ago

Aly has been at the top of my list for many years. Very unfortunately, she has had serious voice impairment the last few years, which explains her sparse production.

Another new voice came up while random playing on YouTube---and when I went to see who it was--the image didn't fit the voice--and now I have added yet one more to my musical experience

I just watched the Linda Ronstadt documentary The Sound of My Voice on CNN on demand for free. I watched on HULU and can't post a link but if you can get CNN on demand you can search for it. It is also available on several streaming services for a small fee.
It was a very good film for me, I have been a fan since the 60s and only recently learned how big of a star she really was. It was a fun film and a emotional film. I plan to watch it again.
On edit.
I was surprised to learn that she recorded the largest selling Spanish language album in history!

I happened to see it as well---and glad I did. Here is a link to CNN and the documentary Mike is talking about.
I think when she was at the peak of her career I was so drawn to her dark eyes and long long hair I missed how wonderful her voice was. Hers was one of those shows I tried not to miss!
I think the documentary did an excellent job of showcasing the range and depth of her voice.

Estas Tonne is a legendary busker street musician seen all around the streets of Europe. I have posted videos of him before, but he has now gone into the concert hall. Below is a video of part of one of his such appearances. He is genuinely inventive and owner of his instrument...a true master of minor keys, which speak to me.
