Euge Groove is a saxophonist. He reminds me a little of the Brazilian saxophonist Gato Barbieri. You may know Gato, as he has played with Santana. Indeed, Santana covered one of Gato's songs (Europa) and then they later played it together. Howev
I had no reason to question why Guns N' Roses covered music from other artists. I've always hear the original composer gets 50% of the royalties. I blogged about this before as music of the 50's often were covered many times by lots of no-name artist
I had a few months of free satellite radio in my car and saved a few channels of favorites, like Classic Vinyl, Beatles, Blues and Rock. Sometimes, they would advertise what's available on the other channels and I would skip around trying music I do

Two decades ago I decided to study Traditional Irish Music by way of the Uilleann Pipes. It was difficult as I had two obstacles. The music and the pipes! I had a few websites with music as well as books, videos and private lessons to help me along
I watched the first semifinal of the Eurovision Song Contest. The place it is held, is in Tel Aviv, Israel. 17 countries competed, but only 10 are through to the final on Saturday. What a freakshow, honestly! Of the 17 song, only 2 were good.

Another productive weekend coming to an end and I'm in YouTube overload mode. Earlier today I did some Jimi Hendrix research and in the suggested video list was the band LEVEL 42. I only knew them by their hit song 'Something About You' and some 'sla

The Mellotron is a musical instrument developed in England in 1963. It consists of a piano-style keyboard with recording tapes instead of strings. Each tape has several 'voices' so you can switch from sounds. Flute, human voice are some that I recall
Using my 60 days of free Satellite Radio has me listing to music I never heard before. They advertised a B.B. King special so I thought I would listen for a while. The channel is blues... the real stuff. I grew up on British Blues as they had a fas
In a span of 60+ years, I've had lots of speakers in my house. Starting off with speakers reclaimed from junk TV's or stereos left in someone's trash. Hey... you have to start somewhere. My dad bought a Wollensak reel-to-reel tape recorder with add-

I'll start with John Paul Jones, bassist for the rock band Led Zeppelin. Born in England in 1946, John Richard Baldwin, change his name to John Paul Jones and not to be confused with the Naval officer back in the 1700's. JPJ, was a studio musician,
I am the admin of two Slipknot fan groups on Facebook, and I am what the media calls a superfan. Anyway, I was minding my own business when I was notified about something. I ignored it at first, but after I had done what I was doing at the time, I lo

If you were in a cover band in the late 60's to early 70's Parchman Farm was most likely on your song list. Written in 1940 by Bukka White, covered by Mose Allison in 1957 and again in 1964, it's been covered by (safe to say) at least a dozen times
In the early days, singer and front man for Van Halen David Lee Roth took them to the top of fame. Unfortunately his crazy personality and ego was more than the band could take and he had a falling out with the group. Auditions for many, but he was r
I'm not too crazy about music from the 70's, but this one from 1973 I like. I heard it over the last few years from a local sports radio show guy in Cincinnati who had made it his theme song playing at the start of his show, but never knew the name o
Sharing a beautiful song on a beautiful Saturday.
Somewhere in the 1960's VOX (Jennings Musical Instruments) created a rocking style foot activated effects pedal. It had a controllable tone circuit that allowed a guitarist emulate the sound of a muted trumpet. As you press the pedal like a car accel
A sweet song from yesteryears.
