This is a pure, earlier recording. To be honest, better. Matlocks' playing is way better than "Sid's" playing on the later Bullocks album. Most people don't know that Jonesy played a lot of the bass tracks on Bullocks anyways, Sid either being a no-show, or not good enough when he was there. ...

That would be Eddie Floyd, the man who originally sang the song. And Duck did the bass on the original track for Stax Records, as did Steve Cropper.

Steve Cropper is definitely on this one. You can tell a Stax recording in about the first 5 seconds. That sound is just incredible.

What I find funny is that this song was recorded at Stax Records, and I think that half of the studio band IS the Blues Brothers Band.

There's actually a Penna RR station directly opposite this on the Sewickley side that has survived and is actually being used, a bigger building with the passenger tunnels that crossed underneath still there, but blocked off. Was a doctor's office the last time I saw.

I once heard a reviewer call The Long Run "Jaded and cokey". Perfect description for the time period this was made, and the strained relationships forming during it. This was always one of my favorites, I think I wore out my "Mega Music Saver" tape that had The Long Run on one side and Hotel Ca...

Hey, I'm all about sampling. It's an art form all by it's little lonesome. But it seems, of late, that the corpses on some of these songs aren't even cold yet before they're not even sampled, they're just flat out ripped off. It's like Karaoke with a rap verse added in.

It's amazing how the same song can sound so different....The original Tears For Fears version is angry...And this version can bring you to tears almost immediately.

@s3p2 Not anymore. The 3 biggest unions barely cracked the top 10 in fundraising in the 2010 election. 2 of Karl Rove's organizations, the shadowy "Chamber of Commerce", and a few others were WAAAAAY ahead.

Let's not forget that Group C back then was a "fuel consumption" formula based on "economy"...The wick was never turned up all the way, and this was before several more years of development on the car culminating with the "humpback" IMSA 962. Also, the Porsche had a full aluminum monocoque, as o...

If you want to go with a more stock look, there are "plug and play" options with SMD's available. Since they're aimed in every direction like a stock bulb would emit light, it would fill like an old incandescant. Plus, you don't have to modify the housing. The difference in speed is noticeabl...

I saw them for the first time early on this tour. It was awesome. Rancid opened for them.

@breathoffreshair360 There's a song by DJ Magic Mike that also sampled this, but I'll be damned if I can find it.

I was always a fan of Dink...Did this make an album?

I'd love to see a side-by-side comparison with the Derek Bell/Stefan Bellof 956 video. I don't think the times would be THAT far off. Which is a major accomplishment, considering that the 956 was one of the most successful race cars of all time.

It's amazing that after all these years, all the performances, he's STILL vaguely uncomfortable talking to the crowd, even though he tells a damned good story.

@TheFinrider I guess that nobody thought different about racing at that point. A lot of endurance events were held on unsafe public roads, in featherweight, magnesium tube framed cars that held steel tanks with HIGHLY flammable race fuel, on crude treaded race tires. They lost a LOT of driver...

@gremmann Hmmm...Porsche, Morgan, Lotus/Caterham/Birkin, Safir (Continuation GT40) or Ford GT for that matter, Mini (old and new), Volkswagen Beetle (1938-2005) New (1998-), The Fiat 128 soldiers on in some countries, built under license. At least Porsche changed the technology over time. Whe...

Interesting replica. I was wondering about how you liked the movement, quality of the case, etc. I'm very interested, but, like other posters here, am concerned about being sent shoddy work. I want one with a chronograph, which makes it worse.

Jack White is pretty brilliant on many levels. He's an innovator, something that is sorely lacking in today's music. That, and he's no "one trick pony". In his various bands and guises, he has turned on white, American suburbanites to Delta Blues, 60's mod rock in the Kinks vein, showed how po...

Apparently 7 people, 2 coolers and a case were too much.
