JJ Cale "Live"

Starting off with a new Eagles 2 CD compilation.

-Dave

I'm off to a rockin' blues start with Chris Duarte's "Texas Sugar Strat Magik". Close your eyes at times and you'd swear it was Stevie Ray Vaughan.

After that, I'm thinking it might be a Delbert McClinton morning.

I gots my blues, my Panera's coffee. It's just a $^&$ shame work has to get in the way.

J

Home for lunch Vic Chestnut is The Actor Happy?

I'm playing disk1 of Back in the Usa by Paul McCartney waiting for
the heater to do it's thing so I can take a shower.

Carl

Well now I've got Big Brother and The Holding Co. Live at Winterland 1968. I love this disk! All the guitar distortion and
feedback. Got her cranked, getting into Summertime now. I love
the whole SF Haight Ashbury sound, think next will be one of
my rare Quicksilvers'. Oh, Yeah! :guitar:

Carl

Sure was a great place to go see a show too.

Drove to work listening to my new Los Lobos compilation. Man the ugly, rainy commute just flew by as I was lost in the tunes.

Now I'm previewing my 2003 Christmas Compilation. It's just something I do for fun, and pass them out to my co-workers instead of a Christmas Card. It is almost finished. I recorded it to a cd/rw until I finalize it. Here's the tentative line-up:

I'm a day ahead and a format different. I've got about 5 versions of "The Planets" all on CD. I was listening to this yesterday on CD. It's recorded in surround, but my HT rig is currently 2-ch.

Right now it's WDET fm. Mostly NPR at this time. Just waiting for the music to begin.

In a jazz mood this morning. Started out with Chuck Mangione - "Feels So Good" and "Fun & Games"..

Next up is Dave Brubeck - "Time Out"..

After that? Who knows. I do have a fusion album here - Miles Davis - "Aura", but it's a little heavy for a morning spin. Instead, I may cue up a little Stanley Clark, Al Dimeola, and Jon-Luc Ponty "Rites of String".
