best into ever! Saw J Giels and they played this over their sound system before the show started and I was great to hear it in that setting. Sometimes I just play the intro over and over when I just cannot get enough.
Hot Fives and Sevens this week, seemed appropriate with Mardi Gras coming up
A couple pretty new ones and an older song I heard this morning on the way to work.
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
Came across this album this morning and put this tune on. The band is awesome, Jeff Porcaro on drums, of course Larry never hired a slouch on any of his many albums. The solo starting at about 1:35 is right up there with the best and the reason Larry has been hired by pretty much the who's who of all music and TV since he started out.

Listened to nearly all my Dan this week and picked this one for a bunch of reasons. Mostly because it is the only piece that I can think of with both Vibraphone and steel pedal slide guitar. Unique! As is Dan.
Raging with the Vermont/NH/NY hippies this Saturday night at Spartan arena in Rutland for last night of Snoe. Down. Heading up with an old buddy and meeting some others up there. Gonna be Strangefolk opening up for moe. Haven't seen strangefolk yet but here they are, along with the headliners:
They have a song called "Rather go Fishin" so they must be pretty decent at a minimum:
2nd vid is from the new year's run at the palladium I attended. They had fan sit ins both nights which were remarkably good given the fans were average joes sitting in with moe. I was so happy for the lucky fans I practically pissed myself. Fact is they were real good musicians and fit in perfectly.
Have a blast, Mike. You get to see the original members of Stangefolk too which is awesome because that is when they were at their best. Wish I could swing it. Here's something to get you fired up. Nails the guitar solo at the 2:50 mark....
I was wondering the same thing. The lineup posted was from YouTube and seems to be for one track only. Did a little wiki research and came up with
John McLaughlin – guitar, production
Carlos Santana – guitar (track 2)
Stu Goldberg – Minimoog (track 1), electric piano (track 1), organ (track 1)
Chick Corea – Minimoog (track 4), piano (track 4)
Patrice Rushen – piano (track 3)
Tom Coster – organ (track 2)
Billy Cobham – drums (tracks 1, 6)
Narada Michael Walden – drums (track 2)
Tony Thunder Smith – drums (track 3)
Jack DeJohnette – drums (track 4)
Tony Williams – drums (track 5)
Alyrio Lima – percussion (track 2)
Armando Peraza – conga (track 2)
Fernando Saunders – bass (track 1)
Neil Jason – bass (track 2)
Alphonso Johnson – bass (track 3), Moog Taurus (track 3)
Stanley Clarke – bass (track 4)
Jack Bruce – bass (track 5)
David Sanborn – saxophone (track 3)
New York on my Mind is track 1, and Do you hear the Voices is track 4
An even more impressive list, but no violin. Must have been the Minimoog. Also found "Trio of Doom" which is Johnny, Jaco and Tony Williams. Got to find me some of that.
