You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
I’ve been listening to so much old-time fiddle music. Sometimes I dig into the library of Congress archives or a website called Slippery Hill and I listen to these old wax recordings of Appalchian folks playing fiddle. For more modern and less professorial pursuits I’ve been diving into Bruce Molsky. The guy is a rhymtic powerhouse. I’m also into the Foghorn String Band, and I’m also becoming quite fond of this classic Irish trad fiddler Kevin Burke. His album “If the Cap Fits” is just amazing music. This stuff has taken over my life.
Last week I watched a David GIlmour DVD from 2002. It is mostly Floyd tunes (albeit later Floyd) and a few randoms. It reminded me that this is a fantastic album.
^I love Division Bell and I’m still kicking myself for not seeing Gilmour the last time he was here, especially when I peaked at the setlist and saw he played High Hopes.
Speaking of, Nick Mason has this “Saucerful of Secrets” band he put together…they’re only doing pre-Dark Side material which is pretty cool and Michigan is lucky enough to get a show. Can’t wait to hit that one…will likely be a lot of songs I’ve never heard anyone doing live.

When I Fall In Love – Michael Bublé - I put it on repeat since I’ve decided to perform on my wedding.
What a way to end Rubber Soul. This one’s for the ladies.

I did not know that Cuba Gooding Sr was the lead singer in Main Ingredient, which I also just learned is the name of the band. I saw in the comments that this song is in The Joker.
Heard this on some oldies channel a while back and I’ve had it in my head for a while. A shame the singer was killed at the end of the song…he could have had some more hits. 
the werks, covering eminence front.
^Haven’t heard them doing that one. Sounds awesome. Seen them a few times. Really good group of dudes.
This is the height of 80’s cheese but, damn, this song gets me going. Such fun. I’m probably still in love with Patty Smyth.
