@JazzFusionLover Percy Jones=THE man. I strained to learn the songs on "Product" when I started to play bass (well after I'd been at it four or five years, anyway :) ). Really one of the most wonderful bassists ever, along with my other favorites, Victor Wootten, Jaco Pastorius, Tony Levin, and...

Fantastic band to this day, for sure--they're ripping up concerts even now, they still rock!! Say--anyone know the story behind whatever happened to Re Styles? She was the only former member (besides Mingo Lewis), I think, who didn't come to the wake for Vince Welnick (RIP Vince! You were grea...

Geez--so much anger about whether the video is named correctly or not? What's up with that?

They say that the song "Soul Makossa," by Manu Dibango of Cameroon, was really neither soul nor makossa. But it's a fantastic song!

I am really enjoying this video and the others in the series. Rath...

@metald71 What would we do without MoodyJill!

@sarahmc0307 That is a sweet thing to hear about! SO glad she made it. Blessings for a good life for you both. Peace out!

@dkchoc2k99 No worries, my friend! I have never been what you'd call a "Deadhead," but I LOVE this song, The Golden Road, and several other songs. I find the lyrics of Ripple to be very interesting. The emotional aspect of the song is really affecting, too, for me, because it talks about death...

@ciroalb3 I agree, he clearly opposed the regime from 1938, allowing his men to document the regime's crimes, and to plot against it. I only meant the REASON wasn't necessarily because he "knew the strength of the Czech army and feared western intervention." Heinz Hoehne also interviewed many ke...

@dodgybizkit Oh no! I just happened to think of this song just now, for no apparent reason, I just thought, "I have to hear that," and this is the first I've learned of it. I'm sure sorry to hear this news. Rest in Peace, and rest assured you did wonderful things for the world, Michael Been.

Just perfect. Especially the higher notes following 3:05 or so. No wavering, no lack of power, just pure and bright and smooth and quietly confident. Beautiful.

I thought of this song often after 9/11. It always surprised me that nobody else seemed to remember this in the context of that tim...

@othello8teen No problem! I think it's awesome that you're paying attention to what your history teacher is saying. Believe me, if you can pay attention to what someone else says and remember it, you're WAY ahead of 90% of the people out there, and you're going to have a great future. Plus, be...

Throw your di-eeece! Heh! LOVE the Scorps...

Well that is gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful work.

@was2911 I agree with this. During the Ottoman Empire, Jews, Christians and Muslims lived there peacefully for centuries... all three can do so again, though it's hard to imagine people letting bygones be bygones once what's happened between them has happened. But if there is no hope for that, ...

Well I won't claim to know what's gone on between them personally, or who is wrong (if either of them are, or if both of them aren't--who knows?). But I think it's a shame. I like both of them, Cameron and Nancy. I wonder who will get custody of Led Zeppelin.

It's true that if she has a job, she's doing better than a large percentage of other middle class people. (10% is about the official unemployment statistic, but it doesn't count several more percentage points' worth of people who have given up looking for work, they've been so long trying.) But...

@Mrjovanmoschus (yes, sergioelwalrus, you got it right! :D) Mrjovanjoschus, der titel des films war "Psych Out."

Hey, very well done! Tres bien fait! Votre prononciation en Anglais est parfait. Et vous connaissez le chanson presque parfaitement aussi! All of the little grace notes and everything, too. Wow!

I wish Shawn Colvin's version were online somewhere, but this is great!

Oh my goodness! At 0:20, is that the Makah Native American territory at the northwestern tip of Washington State??
