Slow blues with Scotty Moore, Earl Palmer, Deke Dickerson

Talk about a night! This was at the Ponderosa Stomp festival in New Orleans back in 2003. This particular clip comes from an all-star band set featuring Scotty Moore on guitar and legendary drummer Earl Palmer on drums (R.I.P. Earl!). The clip starts off kinda slow but keep watching it for the amazing drum solo that Earl takes towards the end. Truly incredible. Imagine how hard it was to play a blues solo with Scotty Moore and Earl Palmer lookin' at you! This is one of those nights that was so magical, it's hard to believe it actually happened. The band features Jon Flynn on bass, Eddie Clendening on rhythm guitar (thanks for blocking the shot there Eddie) and Steve Shepherd on piano.

Another great noodlin' jam Deke. Do you still have that tight trio?

This video is awesome! I recently got into Earl Palmer after hearing his SICK drumming on David Axelrod's albums. Nice post! *****

Some Qs people interested in Motown & EP can ask themselves. These are _Qs_, so anyone giving this post a thumbs down or removing it would be opposed to people asking these Qs (hmmmmm).

Did EP think Scherman did a good job on the book?

Did EP ever say he was on Supremes' "Love Child"? Sound like him?

Pick on bass audible on Tops' "Eleanor Rigby," Stevie's "Respect", mono mix of Tops' "Bernadette", Holloway's "Just Look..."?

Jamerson ever use a pick?

Where has Brenda said the last was recorded?
