      Whether you're a Doobie Brothers fan or not, you'll be saying Oh… My… GAWD!!! There’s 8 minutes of absolute magic at this link!
      First Patrick Simmons and John McFee play about 2 minutes of "Slack Key Soquel Rag" (Patrick is a Maui resident and loves slack key so he wrote this song), then they and the band go right into "South City Midnight Lady."
      If you don't LOVE this video, your license to ever again listen to any music at all will be permanently revoked.

      That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

        This a great thread (thanks for starting it, MM!) so let's keep it alive!
        Here, for your dining and dancing pleasure, is Bonnie Raitt doing "Something To Talk About". Go to this link!
        And Bonnie doing "I Can't MakeYou Love me" is at this link. Wow!

          Back in the 70s during my radio days I came across a song called "Luxury Liner" by Emmylou Harris with unbeliveably spectacular and wickedly fast guitar picking by the legendary Albert Lee. You can see them together at this link and you can see Albert doing it with his band Hogan's Heroes at this link.
          And go to this link to see him play it even faster!
          Eric Clapton, eat your heart out.

            Albert Lee again, from the David Letterman show in 2001, doing "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" starring Earl Scruggs, and with Jerry Douglas, Glen Duncan, Vince Gill, Steve Martin (you know he rips on banjo, right?), Gary Scruggs, Randy Scruggs, Paul Shaffer, Harry Stinson and Marty Stuart. Here's the link.

              I used to play this track regularly on the radio, JUST BECAUSE of that amazing guitar solo. Good pick, LN.

                Thanks, LL!
                And hey, today is the 18th anniversary of the death of Freddie Mercury. So go to this link to hear him and Queen with the classic "Bohemian Rhapsody."
                RIP, Freddie. There'll never be another one like you.

                  In homage, Ryan posted this version of "BR" - by the Muppets.

                    The first time I noticed Albert Lee was years ago on Dave Edmunds’ album, “Repeat When Necessary.” Albert does a little walk on, ripping up the lead on a song called “Sweet little Lisa.” Here is a link to Albert’s band playing the song, while they smoke; I still prefer the Dave Edmunds’ version.

                      Here's Emmylou live at Wembley in London in 1984 with Albert Lee.

                        Good one, Linkmeister, though the audio level is a bit low.
                        And BTW, Eric Clapton is allegedly on record as saying that he feels Albert Lee is the greatest guitarist ever.

                          MUSIC IS.
                          Music helps us define our spaces.
                          Music helps us keep 'in tune' with the world's direction.

                          Music tells us who we were, and who we are.
                          How could we continue to BE without music to guide us?

                          Certainly I could not. Can you?

                          Perhaps you are a cutting edge musican, ready to show use us new worlds!

                          Open Up! Open UP!

                          We are ready.
                          Be Yourself. Everyone Else Is Taken!

                                My all-time favorite Hawaiian song is "Hi`ilawe." Go to this link to see it done by Bruddah IZ, and go to this link to see it done by Cyril Pahinui, sounding just like Pops.
