music in the shed

Just clocked this, Magic Bus live at leeds was why i took up bass, guitar is pressed to sound like a bass played by a bass player...anyway Pete is top notch, love this...j

 
In my Sociology class yesterday, talking to a young feller at my table. He’s a vinyl collector. Seems he’s a big fan of Radio Birdman, the Saints, the Stooges and my favourite punk band Stiff Little Fingers. He’s 19. Seems like the future is safe after all…
And it’s pleasing to hear recently that vinyl has out sold CDs etc for the first time in yonks. 👌
 
That's all great, but I'm more in the mood for soul at the moment:

....as the mood changes here, does happen, have to say though Sharon Jones did this type of music for me at many levels of delivery, a performer whom did it all while she could, just like us, Laverda while we can, come the day we cannot....regards j.
 
Had a gal singer here whom was rehearsing this Dinah Washington song with me, a modern take, bass and sax from me, dependent on whom else could be included. These are snapshots of a life, she is battling cancer as i type... her voice will ever stay with me. j

The two were longtime backing singers for Sharon Jones ...

Local Talent, mentioned previous, Ed Kuepper, been running this song on latest Ubass instrument.... a song for the contemplative moments..
 
Be interested what the folk here think of this rendition of a gospel song re"phrased", Ed Kuepper did a version also, Jeff St John as well....j

 
Found some old photos in a box in the shed yesterday. Here is BB King playing at Festival Hall in Melbourne in 1989. I was 22 and had a new (2nd hand) camera I’d gotten for my 21st. Used to take it to a lot of gigs. I wasn’t well versed in low light/fast film/exposure levels, but managed a few half decent ones. Lots of Phillip Island action from that era too.
