Speedy says:
The Band were part of the 1994 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Class, along with John Lennon, the Grateful Dead, The Animals, and Bob Marley, just to name a few other inductees that year. While Robbie Robertson was in attendance, Levon Helm decided not to show up due to long running issues with Robertson. Eric Clapton handled the induction speech and also sat in with the groupo when they performed The Weight.This TV soundboard recording captures The Band on Saturday Night Live on October 30, 1976, a half century ago today. Less than a month later, they would play the legendary LAst Waltz concert in San Francisco, retiring from live performing. Of course, that turmed out to be just temporarly, as 4/5 of the group (all but Robertson) reunited in 1983.

Bonnie Raitt interviewed at The Guardian (Kat Lister) | Don's Tunes
Bonnie Raitt: I’m just one more kid who learned how to play the blues from being a fan." It is a modest statement for the first woman to have a Fender guitar launched in her honour.
“My gameplan was just to follow my blues and jazz exemplars. Stay true to your art, do the best shows you can, keep going, don’t worry about commercial success, and when you’re 70 years old people will still want to come and see you,” she says.“Thank goodness I come from the generation of Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin, where they performed other people’s songs and did it in their own way,” Raitt says. Her unquestionable gift is the way she can interpret and reimagine music intuitively, motivated by a desire to find stories. Searching for the right song is what motivates Raitt, she says. It can make her sleep less, too. “One moment, you’re listening to some obscure Charles Brown recording from the 1949 sessions that you’ve never heard before; the next thing you know, it’s four hours later and you haven’t brushed your teeth,” she says, laughing.

THE BANGLES - WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN ‘86
THE BANGLES - WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN ‘86
Curiously not my favourite Bangles number but frankly I had quite forgotten quite how steady (and funny!) the video was! Enjoy! I DID
"On this day in 1986 🎥
The Bangles wrapped filming the music video for “Walk Like an Egyptian,” directed by Gary Weis.
A few dance moves, some very ’80s MTV magic, and one unforgettable video later… the rest is history.
Still know the moves? 👀"

* Bois Sec’
a curious nickname from childhood meaning literally ‘Dry Wood’
as he was renowned as a child to be the first
to run in from the plantation fields when it rained! (Go figure!?)
