This is one of my favorite ways to hear Gregg,just him alone,his voice and playing a guitar or piano. Sweet stuff.


Everyone has a plan, till you get punched in the face,

Always loved that clip of Oncoming Traffic as performed for Rather. The tender side of Gregg at his best..............

My God, that was a truly gorgeous piece of music.

The soul and emotion in that vocal delivery was pure honey drippin' beauty. Very interesting to hear that voice raw and un-doctored by the studio in it's purest form acoustically. Totally shows that his talent, even in it's most raw form, was immeasurable. Very interesting use of gospel/blues chord voicings on the piano also.

Thanks for posting that...Made my heart feel good.

It's especially great because hardly any fan got to see him perform this close. Very touching.
