Currently listening to AC/DC ~ Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.
An example of German „Krautrock“ - Kraut like cabbage - of the early 1970s. This is Can „Mushroom“ nowadays we’ll call it alternative.
Another Krautrock growth „Birthcontrol“ from Berlin with „Gamma Ray“.
On this cloudy day in NJ listening to the Grand Lady of the piano Mary Lou Williams.
A Zissen Pesach to all my Jewish friends.
May all that is bitter in your life be sweetened with charoset.

Now playing Def Leppard - On Through The Night.
I saw them tour this (their first) album. They opened for Judas Priest and Scorpions. Great show.
Beggin' your pardon there stranger
You look like you're new to this town
We're a long way away from the beach here
You won't see many gringos around
Well I come from West Colorado
And I've wandered this world far and wide
I've lived for some years in the shadows
And my eyes are unused to this light
If you buy me a strong drink of whiskey
I will tell you the tale of my life
It's long and it's sad but it fits me
And it may bring a tear to your eye
All the men of my family were solidiers
The hard fightin' straight talkin' kind
When my turn came all that was over
But I'd already made up my mind
I was there when we blew though Grenada
And I still have to ask myself why
Then we took down that fool Noriega
That's where I caught the good colonel's eye
Well he asked me if I loved my country
And before I had time to reply
He regaled me with tales of past glories
I believed every one of his lies
So I left my old life behind me
Turned my back on my family and friends
And I did everything that they asked me
And I lost some sleep now and again
And I lived like a thief and assassin
And I smuggled their poisons sometimes
Until I asked the wrong question in passin'
And the colonel himself dropped the dime
So if you're ever in west Colorado
Tell the folks in Durango goodbye
There's a price on my head and I can't go
I'll just wait around here 'til I die

Gig last night was really fine. Only about 50 people there. He did a very nice set with no opener and hung out after visiting with maybe a half dozen people. Definitely check him out if he is in your neck of the woods!
Currently listening to Willie Nelson ~ Phases and Stages.
Keith929, thanks for posting this from one of the great albums of all time, with the whole production leading to the closing tune, which features Flo and Eddie doing their No.1 hit (with a bullet) "Happy Together."
I like to revisit that video from time to time...great song and performance from the Toy Caldwell days...shame he went so young.
