Speaking of David Bromberg, it reminded me to look for a PBS special that I have somewhere on cassette-

From posters collection of off-the-air recordings on VHS cassettes. This concert was aired by PBS stations on January 7, 1983. Tom's guest performers included Emmylou Harris, David Bromberg and David Buskin & Robin Batteau.

I used to look forward to Tom Rush and friends first of the new years concerts. Some good music. Thanks for the reminder to go looking again.

Buena Vista Social Club

A bit of an update.....
While I can't understand 98% of the words, unlike so much of recent music, I know there are words there.
I like the "Proud Talent" the Buena Vista Social Club brought out in their music and that the talent was shown to the world.
I hope the new musical does the music of the Buena Vista Social Club justice.

In 1996, a group of elderly, mostly forgotten Cuban musicians recorded an album that became a critical and commercial phenomenon worldwide. Now, the Grammy Award-winning "Buena Vista Social Club" has inspired a Broadway musical. Correspondent Martha Teichner talks with Cuban bandleader Juan de Marcos González about assembling the original players; writer Marco Ramirez and director Saheem Ali, about creating the imagined origin story of the musicians and their Havana nightclub; and journalist Judy Cantor-Navas, about how the infectious music of Cuba crosses boundaries.

Doesn't get much better than this! Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton...seems that Butch Trucks and Doyle Bramhall are here as well.

Decades after her death, there remains no shortage of ways fans memorialize the Tejano superstar. Nowhere is that more apparent than in the city where she lived, and now rests.

Today after grilling some salmon outside I just sat at the entrance to my motorcycle garage with the door open. It was such an exceptionally pleasant day (except for the pollen). I'd taken a "pinkie" (aka Benadryl) to combat the runny nose and sneezing so no riding of the motorcycle. Rather, I just sat in my kermit chair and listened to some music.

This album, Twilight Motel by Alison Brown, is a favorite. I believe that she has made the entire album available on YouTube.

Peter Frampton featuring the “talk box”. The “talk box”, at this point was a hand built device created by Bob Heil- microphone genius.
