TL,DR

Not typically the music I listen to, but damn, this is great.

Damn.

That fuckin" gif of the guy and the bus, I don't know what exactly it is about it but it near brings me to tears of laughter every time I watch it. It may be tied for my favourite gif of all time. The below classic gif being my favourite. Both make me laugh way too much for what they are.

Cheers my friend, I'll be sure and throw a couple everclears back later today in your honour.

Man I miss the Gourds, but Shinyribs (Kevin Russell of the Gourds) never disappoints.

God-damn, I love that Bouncing Around The Room. That's a proper hometown tribute including song teases of Slave, PYITE , First Tube and a melody I couldnt place during the intro chords. Every Phishead needs to watch/listen to that one. That's totally epic. 

Its a pretty awesome cover that's for sure. Gets a lot of play around here. While I love OCMS, I was really impressed that they didn't bluegrass it up.

Happy birthday bouche!

Yeah, wasn't a slag on the fest name, I was just curious as I haven't really kept up on the acts that play the fest anymore and hadn't really heard of any. Only play catch up when I read through the reviews and threads ya'll share though.

I looked for that thread awhile back when trying to recall the bands I saw when I last attended - jeebus 21 yrs. ago - thought I went to one after that, but guess I didn't. I still have my t-shirt from the 97 fest somewhere, though it doesn't come close to fitting anymore. Must have shrunk...

So let’s talk dream acts for next year.

David Rawlings/Gillian Welch - solo, duel or whatever band they have at the time etc.

William Elliott Whitmore

Tyler Childers

Not sure if all this would be too country-ish for Bluesfest though.  No sarcasm, serious question: are there any blues bands that play the main stages anymore?

Buddy Guy, Jack Bruce & Buddy Miles 1969

Old Crow Medicine Show - "Bouncing Around the Room"

That version of California Dreaming kicks all the ass. Keep on keeping on. 

 

Not sure when I downloaded it - most likely years back when I cruised all corners of the blog-o-sphere downloading anything & everything that looked good to me. Truth be told, I kind of didn't realize I had it. That track showed up showed up one night recently during a playlist shuffle (on winamp - yes, that's still my main player) and I've had a hard time not playing it daily since. Great stuff for sure.

"This is THE original version, but few have ever heard,  or know of it, so I thought it warrants being submitted."

I totally appreciate your intention here but what fucking planet are you on right now? Put the bong down bahd. The thread is for cover versions Bally. 

Ha, it sort of is though. It was first released by Moloch, but written, and then later released (1972) by Don Nix (as noted above).  If anything, I shared the non-cover.?

...and I won't be putting my bong down anytime soon.

Today, the Owsley Stanley Foundation (sound engineer Owsley “Bear” Stanley of Grateful Dead and Acid Test fame) and Allman Brothers Band have announced the official release of Bear’s Sonic Journals: Allman Brothers Band, Fillmore East February 1970. The original recording comes from February 11th, 13th, and 14th, 1970 at Fillmore East, and features one of the “earliest known live concert recordings of ‘In Memory of Elizabeth Reed’,” which the band opened with on each of the three nights. These recordings have not previously been released to the public.

The OWSLEY STANLEY FOUNDATION and THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND are pleased to announce the CD release of “Bear’s Sonic Journals: Allman Brothers Band, Fillmore East February 1970.” It’s available today exclusively at the Peach Music Festival, then through the OSF website on July 24, and in stores on August 10. This recording showcases an early incarnation of the band from February 11, 13, and 14, 1970, with Duane Allman in full form. The CD release presents the same playlist as the long out-of-print limited release from 1996, with all new mastering from Bear’s original tapes. In fact, all of the source tapes for the CD have been mastered and will be released as high-resolution downloads (available on July 27 through our website). These downloads showcase never before released material from each performance, including the earliest known live concert recordings of “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed,” which the band opened with on each of the three nights. Here’s a sample of it from the February 14 version that’s on the CD. If you’re attending the Festival this week, we hope you’ll stop by the Allman Brothers Band Museum table to visit with us and have a listen…

Have to share another from this guy.
