Old School Musicianship… Rock and Roll.. Jazz… Blues… Big Band even…

Fine… time for the big guns…


Elvis Presley - I Want You I need you I love you
 
Okay.... I need a hit of something.... this should help. 🥰🥰🥰

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Ramble Tamble
 
This song is one of the many reasons why I'm a big Stevie Ray Vaughan fan and also lament how he was taken so soon from us. I love how his guitar added emphasis to the lyrics:

"I heard a woman scream, yeah and I peeked through the door
Some cat was workin' on Annie with a, Lord with a two-by-four"

I can almost visualize it as he's singing and playing, he was such an incredible talent. No wonder I never tire of listening to his albums.

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Tin Pan Alley (aka Roughest Place in Town)

Stevie Ray was so cool!!! I did get to see him live once... and once was not enough. Nice choice, Elmo! 🥰🥰
 
I can't help it... I need to hear some more Allman brothers...

Allman Brothers Band - Blue Sky
 
It's all @Elmo_Lincoln 's fault! He got met thinking about Stevie Ray, who I am a monster fan of and was since his 2nd or 3rd album.

And while I don't go much for "favorites".... this might be my favorite tune from Steve Ray. I know, It's Jimi's tune... but Stevie's version just completely blew my little mind the first time I heard it.

Stevie Ray Vaughan - Voodoo Child (Slight Return)


Edit: I looked it up… this is the first CD I bought, and Soul To Soul was just coming out and within a week, I bought all three. At a time I was scraping money together, but Stevie was worth it. 🥰🥰🥰

And the Beatles song with Eric Clapton playing the guitar solo... that his close friend George Harrison asked him to play. That in itself to me, is beautiful.

The Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
 
This is one of those songs that almost haunt me... I kind of identify with the roller girl... even though I can't skate. 🤣


Dire Straits - Skateaway
 
I really have no idea what these lyrics mean.... I just really love the music and this performance of this song....

Jethro Tull - Cross-Eyed Mary
 
Might as well throw in a cover of a Dylan tune... I much prefer this version....

Kenny Wayne Shepherd - Everything Is Broken

Edit: Actually... this isn't the version I though it was... this was recorded 25 years later apparently.... but I really meant Kenny Wayne Shepherd's cover so I guess I'm still accurate.... yeah... lets go with that. 🤣
