Happy first Birthday, Sydney! :fanfare: (Sorry about being one day late, sweetie!) Dino, I saw your mention of The Blasters on one of these GBs. Ahh, "American Music"! I was fortunate to see them at the Stone Pony in the 80s, but after Dave Alvin had left the band. With the late Hollywood Fats on guitar, they sure smoked that little club, though! I got the DVD of "The Last Waltz" for Christmas and finally got to watch it all the way through last night. What great stuff! I hadn't realized just how much of the music was rerecorded, though. Many of Rick Danko's lines that I was hearing did not match up to what his fingers were doing and where they were on the fretboard of his bass. For example, on "Farther (on) Up the Road" with Clapton, Rick was mostly staying on the root note in the pictures, but the sound had a 1-3-5-6-8 standard blues walking bass line playing. That turned me off just a little, but it's still a wonderful show, and I'm glad I have it. Enjoy your day... Oh, anyone still thinking of the Mule on 2/15 at 9:30 Club? Party at Stephanie's? 😀 Let me know.
