yeah, but are you sure that's the axe he used on the recording? sounds like he's using a phase shifter (prolly an MXR Phase 90... since they were all the rage back then).

damn, i miss "Midnight Special" and Don Kirschner's "In Concert".

Me too and Soul Train I used to love that show too!

but didn't Soul Train have the bands miming to their records?

Most of them actually played their songs. I think some lip synced their stuff! A couple years ago I was BBQing on a sat and watching "The Reverend Al Green" he was REALLY performing and he had a broken arm it was in a cast! That was a good day!

the right reverend is gonna be performing this weekend in Columbia MO at The Roots, Blues, & BBQ fest just down the road from us. and doncha know PLANET JAZZ has got a big corporate gig i've gotta play (the Mrs. got me the gig!) so i'll be missin' the Rev.

is that your stand-up bass gig PG? with PLANET JAZZ?

Bummer! Look at the bright side you'll be making money instead of spending it!

I am playing with Wiseguy this Sat at Captain Jacks Beach Bar on the Seawall tomorrow. Its an early gig 5 to 9pm. The weather here has been absolutely amazing! lows at night 65 to 70 highs 85 to 90 with unusally low humidity. so it should be a good gig!

usually electric. especially w the P-JAZZ lineup that'll be doing this gig...

besides the straight ahead jazz stuff..we'll be doing more blues, funk, and cover tunes for this gig so really the bass gtr is the way to go.

That singer sounds a little like Lyle Lovett! sounds great I bet you guys pack the dance floor! I have played with some good musicians from Missouri! You guys ROCK!

What is it with us old guys and Hawian shirts? I have a closet full of them LMAO! Nice bass solo in the 2cd song!

thanks jeff. yeah we've gotta few different lineups of P-JAZZ and that's definitely one of my faves. we haven't played in that lineup in over a yr so this gig should be interesting w no prct! good thing there's only gonna be 1200 people there!

hawaiain shirts...yeah right on. i've also got CLOSET FULL OF 'EM! i used to play steel drums, marimba, and gtr in an island band that did a lot of Buffett, Harry Belafonte, and originals in that style and that's all we ever wore!
