Fifty-one years ago today Joe Cocker and Mad Dogs and Englishmen, a band with 30+ musicians including Leon Russell, played the Capital Theater (Port Chester, NY). Due to technical issues, the early show was at 9 pm, and the late show at 1:30 am. The band ended up playing until 5 am

I saw the video of some concert(s) from that tour. Maybe it was more involved than just concert footage. Don't remember the name. But I really enjoyed the music.
 
This was always my favorite James Taylor album, it was also the album the first made me aware of round wound strings. My first wife was a big James Taylor fan when I first met her, she was also a very good singer and guitarist and sounded like Joan Baez and could blow you out of a room her voice was so strong, anyway she turned me on to James. This album was kind of different for him, it reminded me of a folk Sgt Pepper album with songs running into each other. LeLand Sklar played the great bass on this LP.

 
They made a film of the US tour.

None in Arizona either, except for the Navajo Nation, which includes parts of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah.

Some in The Navajo Nation use Indian Time.

“We flow with the ebb and flow of nature, daylight and moonlight, with flow of seasons; not with modern time frames. The day starts before the sun comes up in the morning. “

That kind of sums up how people’s cycles run. I usually wake up pre-dawn, a bird outside my window manages my internal alarm and wakes me.

...and Steeleye Span.
A friend and I were talking about Steeley Span yesterday evening over dessert at Aladdin's Eatery.

I was learning teaching him about Ms. Ana Morphic (Art).

...everybody has to be somewhere.
Which beggars the question:

Have you ever met Saul Goodman? :laugh:
The only Saul I recall meeting was some guy with the last name of Marantz! :bassist:
 
Wow, he made some nice stuff, I've had one of these for almost 20 years, 240 WRMS per channel into 4 ohms continuous. Not mine. I bought mine when they were still fairly cheap.

I didn't know how good that stuff was when I saw it

I used one channel of a broken one of about that vintage as my bass amp for a year or two, it actually sounded pretty swell and I still have a few of the knobs.

That was top of the line gear back in the day.
