My absolute #1 favorite Stones song (and one of my favorites in general)!
I've loved this song since it first came out. He was SO good. He even performed a song on a show on TV--while he had dementia--and nailed it. I wish I could remember where that was. ๐
Damn what a heartbreaking waste. ๐
It's beautiful, Tye. And I love how it kind of goes off the rails for a bit right around the middle!
Cool! See ya, America 2026!
Not to belabor the point, but these are from the same spot. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Yeah--I guess it could be. But I took all of the photos from basically the same spot, and this is the only weird one. But I'll go look again. I do (usually) love it when I get images that surprise me. Thanks!
Right?! But there was nothing up there but stars and pine branches (at least as far as I could tell!)
"...just-a gettin' higher..." :)
Wait--1986?!! Time flies when you're...whatever I've been doing for the last 40 years...
He really is. I got to see him with Patti at the Beacon (in December?)--I have NO idea where they get that energy! (And Lenny still crowd-surfs, apparently ๐ฑ.)
Tonight (if you're in or near Brooklyn and looking for something to do)... In case I haven't made it obvious so far, Sandro Bevilaqua is my son. And he's playing with some other seriously talented musicians too. And you'll get to meet ME (lucky you ๐)! #MusicSky #livemusicnyc
Ask Constantine. :) At least there's a Gospel of Mary (Magdalene)--in the third person, of course (and Peter is not portrayed kindly...).
You started Pitchfork?! That's so cool! Congratulations on the book--that's one I'd actually like to read. (Slightly OT): Have you read Lenny Kaye's Lightning Striking? It's got to be the most detailed history of rock 'n' roll ever (and he's an oddly good writer, and a nice guy...).
Rosie Vela made an album?! She was so huge (not literally) as a model in the '90's!
This was bizarre. I was in my yard last night, taking my usual hand-held photos of stars on my iPhone. They were all pretty dull...and then I found this one as I was looking through them. It's a star, but I have zero idea how it came to look like this! #photography #nightphotography #iPhonecamera
The whole album. ๐โจ (And twice today I've heard of/heard this song, oddly! It must mean something. :) )

Day 20: A song about giving up.
(I've actually been trying to learn and record this over the past few days! That solo at the beginning was what made me fall in love with Peter Green. ๐)
More of this, less of bombing other countries

Recorded at the Gunter Hotel, San Antonio, Texas, on Nov. 27, 1936.
An extremely rare shellac master "test pressing" of the unissued (on 78) take 2 of "Cross Road Blues" (a.k.a. "Crossroad Blues") by the great delta blues singer and guitarist.

That's almost bizarrely clear! Musta been the devil's work. :) Thanks for sharing this.
Boston--our ancestral home ๐ (well, most of my family is from there, and my son went to Berklee--great school town!). I imagine it's great to live there, but maybe just a BIT different than Texas.
Please do send me links!
Oh--cool! What genre? Is he in a band? So much seems to be happening now in Brooklyn, musically speaking. I wonder if our sons have run into each other.
No wonder it was so hard for me to figure out--such a complex technical process (re-starting my laptop... ๐)! Well THAT'S embarrassing! Thanks very much for trying to help.
My next trick: trying to play Peter Green's "Fool No More", with rhythm, lead, vocals and drums. Piece of cake (NOT!).
(With just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear.)
Oliver's Army! (My favorite of his songs.)
Richard Butler's voice (and accent). ๐
No problem. (Except that she apparently flirted with my then-husband during a photo shoot about 650 years ago!)
