This is from Austin City Limits - "Don't Think Twice" by Susan Tedeschi. The violin solo always sends shivers down my spine.



Here's another version of the same song by Tedeschi. This time it's the organ solo.

When one takes it straight without chaser:

@unenlightened agree?

Proper alien music; don't ask yourself whether you like it or not, but whether you can hear it or not.

Great song, great musicians, but I don't like it, they overplayed it and over-sentimentalised it, and clearly thought twice or even three times. I wish there was something they could sing or play to try and make me change my mind, but they entirely lost the vitriol and irony of the original. And you even linked it twice!

It's the greatest breakup song of all time and Dylan plays the best version. The bitterness is wonderful. "You just sort of wasted my precious time." Perfect. But I like that Tedeschi mixed the pain in too. That adds something good to the bitterness. I don't see it as sentimental.

I can't say you treated the song unkind. You could have done better, but I don't mind.

Let's try this instead:

I can't say you treated the song unfair. You could have done better, but I don't care.

Back on my bullshit

For fans of SRV:


Great ensemble playing between Bass and second and first Guitar (depending upon the part of the song).

Hendrix does a beautiful rendition on the "Blues" collection, but I cannot find a You Tube version worth posting.

@Jack Cummins agree?

:clap:

I have always been a Manic Street Preachers' fan. I like their music, including that including Richey and afterwards. I think that my favourite album is ' This is My Truth, Tell Me Yours'. The track ' Motorcycle Emptiness' does stand out in their early work, and I do appreciate, 'The Holy Bible' album although Richey' s mental torture is evident and I would probably find listening to it too often a bit too much.

I feel that 'The Wind Cries Mary' by Hendrix is a wonderful track and it sometimes gets overlooked amongst his songs.

:up:

Why am I listening to Madonna someone please help me

Jeezus

Interesting play of piano as percussion versus melody. Or both, if that is the movement.

¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo! :fire:

I think hip hop production has moved pretty far beyond concepts of percussion and melody...

Do you mean like this:

@Mayor of Simpleton agree?
