Today's song

 

 

Hey, @notsmokinjo, thanks for The Waifs, nice little vid here

 

 

You could read a self-help book.  Or, you could just listen to Roger Miller.

 

Wish I was going to Darwin ...wait no let me retract that...it's frickin troppo season an the middle of build up...nope staying in Melbs...just hope it is an amazing day for one and all. 

 

 

Upbeat and positive song

 

 

heavy rotation for my quit song 

 

 

 

This popped into my head at about 3am.

Happy Halloween

For you, @johnny5

 

 

 

 

Congrats Archie Roach....Victorian Australian of the Year.....

 

 

 

 

The green sweater Kurt Cobain wore during the "Unplugged" set sold at auction for $334,000.  Kinda crazy how things come around...

 

 

 

 

"Now my empty cup is as sweet as the punch."

There are more polished versions of the song available, but It's nice to listen to a couple of legends just riffing together in studio.

OMG !  My friend, Roberto Luti is in this !  @ 1:11.  He used to play on the streets here with other friends of mine.

How nice to see him and hear him playing so well.  Lovely. 

I guess I will have to go to Livorno, Italy to meet up with him again or, maybe not,

he is a gypsy and could show up at any time in any place.

Also Simone Luti shows up playing bass, a relation ?  Nice bass.

Hope he gets some dosh and some work out of this video, he's really good.

@Sazerac  I really like watching these Playing for Change videos.

 

If you start watching them, you will notice certain people will regularly show up in many of the episodes.  Roberto Luti is in a lot of these videos.  There are also a lot of New Orleans street performers as well (Grandpa Elliot is one of my favorites)

 

Great stuff.

Thanks alot, @johnny5, 

Apparently, Roberto was in on Playing for Change at the beginning.  I am so glad.

Haven't seen Grandpa Elliot out for too long a time...worrisome but, he may surface in the Spring for Jazz Fest.
