ROCK 'n' Roll Halls of Fame

the 'other' Joan, singing a cover of another Motown classic for the Funk Brothers documentary





I've always loved the earthy qualities of her voice.....and whatever went on in Motown the Funk Brothers were always there.

Good trio Teshka!
We were certainly missing "You can't hurry love"

Amen bruddah! I assume that was Sambora on lead guitar. Freakin' Awesome! The guitar and Cher. Man if I had a bottle of Ouzo handy, I'd toss you the whole thing.

And you just blew my mind darlin'. Partly because I had the volume up a little "too loud" when I played that one, so I definitely heard the harmony.

But that just for that "Me more" crack... 1962, from their first album, my all-time favorite Frankie Vallie choon:

Immensely creative album title... "Sherry & 11 Others"

But what's in a name?

Keep right on truckin' my R'n'R homies. Rock on.

Yeah I'm fresh out of "Whitesnake" too. So how 'bout some Iron Maiden? Just "off the cuff" ...

Well ... as a generation we're too fortunate to have Mark Knopfler (while at his pick point of guitar-mastership) playing his solos for us anytime we want!

The incredible solo starts at 4.50 and goes till the end

Yeeeah. "Throw down" all you like dear. Sometimes I think you're the one who shoulda built this topic.

Man... that whole video. Guitar, vocal harmony, everything, even better than the studio version.

Amethyste, I salute you for that one ol' boy...





Sultans of Swing was the first song I ever heard by Dire Straits on the radio, one fine spring day in 1986. Los Angeles, driving home from work. (Yep, I remember it that clearly.) I pulled into a shopping mall and bought the CD.

I (for one) can't ignore these guys for too long. I started hearing them on American radio in late '92, and within a month I owned 2 or 3 of their CDs. The Reyes and Baliardo brothers, Andalusian Gypsies ("Gitana Soy"). Their lyrics are hard to understand sometimes coz they're mostly Spanish, but with a little Portuguese and some other stuff thrown in. But this song's simple enough... and man, it rocks me to the bone.

(Dance, dance, dance for me)
Me enamoré de esta gitana...
Znayesh, milaya.

I like Dennis Quaid. But he doesn't look all that much like "The Killer" does he?
There are some really interesting clips in this video.
