MY GOODNESS!!! I don't know how a bass can survive a shredding like this!

 

 

Pretty awesome. Thing is, to play that you have to have the gentle touch of a lover. That bass'll be just fine.

That may be true. I've seen some videos of Billy Sheehan playing bass. He's great, but not even close to this!

Who remembers Three Dog Night?  Their Captured Live at the Forum album was released a couple weeks after I turned seven.  My older brother bought it then; I have his original vinyl.  Groovy, man.

At the time they were opening for Steppenwolf; the record label sent a crew to record Steppenwolf for a live album and decided to record Three Dog Night too.  It turned out to be a big hit for Three Dog Night, reaching #6 on the album charts.

This link will play the whole album.

Travis T. Warren started in a band called 00-Metro way back. Blind Melon picked him up as front man years and years after Shannon's death but it was rumored that he shared the same affliction and after one album Blind Melon disbanded for good. He is still active in music I think with self produced and self performed stuff. I always thought he was a talented dude. I was always digging this one.

Wouldn't it be great if they could make a living as musicians as opposed to soldiers?  Thanks for sharing.

You're welcome. Most of the comments are very positive. Even more interesting is that Rush shared this video on their Facebook page.

What? We’re an all volunteer army. I know plenty of people who gave up great careers to join.

Really?  Damn, I thought with all the draft talk going on around here that we still conscripted soldiers into service every year. My bad.

For musicians, it's actually a really good gig, provided they make it through basic.

In my younger carefree/LSD days I had a particular experience where I was simultaneously experiencing the entire kaleidoscope of emotions while holding one finger on the pulse of my existence(basically trying to not lose my mind). I had an enlightenment of sorts, connecting my staked claim on reality to the fate of that of the smallest sub atomic particles , agreeing with happiness about the light and consoling anger in the darkness(and about the darkness). Suddenly Nikola's assertion that we are the light and pain is an illusion and how it's all a symptom of being cut off from it, was real.(Nikola didn't say the part about pain, that was Maynard).  I know it seems like a distant rambling and it may be, but it was all very real and it changed the course of my life, may have even saved it. Anyways this song takes me right back. I couldn't find a version with lyrics so I pasted those little buggers.

Reflection

I have come curiously close to the end, down
Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole
Defeated, I concede and
Move closer
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
How pitiful

It's calling me
It's calling me
It's calling me
It's calling me

And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping
The moon tells me a secret, my confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections pass over me

Its source is bright and endless
She resuscitates the hopeless
Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting

And as I pull my head out I am without one doubt
Don't want to be down here soothing my narcissism
I must crucify the ego before it's far too late
I pray the light lifts me out
Before I pine away
Before I pine away
Before I pine away
Before I pine away

So crucify the ego, before it's far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable
Just let the light touch you
And let the words spill through
And let them pass right through
Bringing out our hope and reason

Before we pine away (pine away)
Before we pine away (pine away)
Before we pine away (pine away)
Before we pine away
