6195. Geddy Lee - I Am...You Are

-
From: The Lost Demos; Year: 2023 (2000); Genre: Hard Rock
This was released last year and consisted of two unreleased tracks from his My Favourite Headache solo album back in 2000. Definitely not among the best off of the record, which is probably why they were left off initially, but such a great treat to hear some new material from one of the members of Rush.

738 ( The Allman Brothers Band - In Memory of Elizabeth Reed )

738 ( The Allman Brothers Band - In Memory of Elizabeth Reed ) I am need of some Allman Brothers music this morning and I remembered this nice Jazz Fusion track from their Idlewild South album. What is so awesome about the earlier Allman Brothers music is the fact that they had not one, but two guitar legends in the group. This instrumental was an excellent vehicle for showcasing both Duane Allman's and Richard "Dickey" Betts' amazing skills on the guitar. Not to say that they are the only highlight; the entire band is simply amazing. Here is a recording of the song on YouTube. Here is the Live at Filmore East Performance on YouTube. My song pick a year ago today: J.S. Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 5, BWV 1050 My song pick two years ago today: J.S. Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 2, BWV 1047 +

6189. Dr. John - Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive

-
Image
From: In a Sentimental Mood ; Year: 1989; Genre: Swing/Big Band Jazz Had this song on my mind since yesterday; quite a catchy and upbeat track to say the least. This one is a standard from during the height of The War, originally written by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer. From wot I understand the title and main idea of the song was borrowed from a sermon by a popular preacher at the time, Father Divine , which translated very well into an upbeat song. Many have recorded versions of this popular standard over the years, I almost went for a few others, but I knew Dr. John's really well, and I am a fan of his work, so I chose his rendition.   Hear Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive on YouTube.       My song pick 1 year ago today: Herman's Hermits - End of the World   My song pick 2 years ago today: Alice in Chains - The One You Know   My song pick 3 years ago today: Yes - Going for the One   My song pick 4 years ago today: Dayton Sidewinders - Phoenix   My song pick 5 years ago tod

From: Stardust (soundtrack) ; Year: 1974; Genre: Rock Apparently this song came was the title-track to the film of the same name, which Essex starred along side Keith Moon, David Edmunds, Adam Faith, and Larry Hagman amongst others.
