Marcin explains Flamenco to Will Smith!!! | via Diamond Dave

We have featured Marcin before (his appearance on Sunday Brunch was exceptional) but Diamond Dave dropped by to add this clip of his teaching (sic?) Will Smith how to play Flamenco!!!    


As Dave said I am not sure I am any the wiser AFTER he explains it to Will but heck it’s worth a listen!


say:
Thank you to Will for being an absolute legend. See me on tour in Europe, Turkey, North America: https://marcin.tix.to/tour

Birthdays : Michelle Shocked (again thanks to ROUTE)

Happy birthday to Michelle Shocked, born as Karen Michelle Johnston in Dallas, Texas on this day in 1962.


Johnny Winter - Highway 61 - Bobfest 1992


Found this after trawling around for his birthday and it was quite word to get a hold of but check out Johnny’s backing band here!  A sort of Booker T Superband: Steve Cropper, Jim Keltner and Anton Fig on drums, Donald ‘Duck’ Dunn,  G.E. Smith [with the most unfortunate curtain haircut!] et al

 Great quality!

Neil Young, Willie Nelson and Crazy Horse - All Along the Watchtower (Live at Farm Aid 1994) | Top Hat Crew's "Live Music Archives"

 Thought for a second this was Bob's 30th Anniversary in the business but it’s Farm Aid ’94 either will do the job - 8.14 minutes of Neil covering our Bobby! BLISS!

Art of The Day - Don Van Vliet “Untitled” 1985


Don Van Vliet 
“Untitled” 
1985 
India ink, crayon on paper

Now today’s from Gary Lucas (where else!?) is a true beauty at once from the Captain’s archetypical tendency towards totemic creation and his depictions of strange ‘spirit’ animals, dog, wolf, or mystical hare? . . .who knows but it’s a beauty


As it’s a drawing it is not often given the attention to detail that major paintings from his Gallery [Michael Werner Cologne]  always do! So worth a close look; it is exquisite IMHO

Captain Beefheart and A Magic Band - Safe As Milk (French TV ‘CHORUS' 1980)

 IS IT SAFE?!

ANYMORE . . . . . 



Captain Beefheart and A Magic Band - Safe As Milk (French TV ‘CHORUS' 1980) A Beefheart classic -


Well my cigarette died when I washed my face
Dropped some drops in an ashtray hit a wrong place
Open up my blinds to see spiders spinning nines
Its uh safe as milk it’s uh safe as milk
I never heard it put quite that way
The shape I’m in is uh worn a way
They called a day they called a day
Yesterday’s paper headlines approach rain gutter teasing rusty cat sneezing
Soppin wet hammer dusty and wheezing
Lusty alley whining trashcan blues
Children running after rainbows stocking poor
Gracious ladies nylon hanging onto line
Jumping onto leg looking mighty fine

Sorrows lollipop lands stick-broken on a dark carnival ground
Pop up toaster cracklin
Aluminum rhythm and sound
Ev’ry day pencil lazy and sharp
Icebox inside looking like a harp
Electric bulb been out for years
Freezer fumes feezin’ gas tears
Cheese in the corner with a mile long beard
Bacon blue bread dog eared (repeat twice)

I may be hungry but I sure ain’t weird

(1968)

Lyrics confirmed by Gary Lucas on his Facebook page. He wrote “I watched Jan write them out for Don on huge cue cards on tour”.
