Johnlodge, I like the early Motown, before Berry Gordy slicked it up (and watered it down) too much.

Come To Me - Marv Johnson '59
Money (That's What I Want) - Barrett Strong '59-'60
Bye Bye Baby - Mary Wells '60-'61
Motor City - The Satintones '60
Way Over There - The Miracles '60
Please Mr. Postman - The Marvelettes '61
Stubborn Kind of Fellow - Marvin Gaye '62
Heat Wave - Martha & the Vandellas '63

I've been going through another early Dylan mood: "Another Side Of..." & "Bringing It All Back Home." Also, John Scofield's "Uberjam," which I've had for a while, but never given a fair shake; it's real good, actually.
I found a video, from some Dylan anniversary concert (or some such thing,) of "My Back Pages" performed by Dylan, Roger McGuinn, Neil Young, Tom Petty, George Harrison, and Eric Clapton. It was pretty good; I'll go find it, and return with the link.
Hilariously, the one who seemed like he was forgetting some of the lyrics was Dylan, who looked as though he may have been a bit toasted. (But then, he has always looked that way.)
Nice to see McGuinn looking healthy and like he has aged well.

This past fall I unfortunately missed an opportunity to attend a live John Scofield concert. Enjoyed his "A Go Go" CD this past week.

The Pat Metheny Trio has a live show at the end of this month. Missed seeing him live at Chene Park years ago.

One of my absolute top top TOP favorite CD's features Scofield on electric guitar: Joe Henderson's "So Near, So Far (Musings For Miles)." Henderson on tenor sax, Dave Holland on bass, Al Foster on drums. Superb and, to my ears, beyond improvement.

Thanks, Pam. That was cool.

It inspired what I'm listening to, Mavis Staples "Down in Mississippi".

Damn, I love "Beetles In The Bog"... War meets Fela Kuti on the last track on side 1 of All Day Music, if memory serves...
I'm playing African toones and selecting which I'll play on the radio Monday when I do an all-African music set, highlighting the brilliant Hugh Masekela who is touring and playing here (and in Detroit) in the very near future...
Wganda Kenya - Shakalaode is pounding away right now.
The Hugh records I'm sorting through are "The Boy Is Doing It", "Reconstruction" (on Motown),"Home Is Where The Music Is" (double lp on Blue Thumb, 1972, nobody seems to know this record although Hugh remembers it fondly in his autobiography), "Latest" (early seventies lp with a Beach Boys cover("Alive & Well at The Whiskey", "Masekela" (my favourite Hugh album), "The Promise of a Future" (with "Grazin'" as well as "Stop", the Buddy Miles song later played by Band of Gypsies),"Introducing Hedzolleh Soundz", basically the funkier albums from Hugh's diverse catalogue... he puts on a good show, I don't know who the Chissa All Stars are, but I read a favourable review of a recent performance on this tour. Go Hugh! Go see Hugh!

Erikto, "Beetles In The Bog" is the 6th and final track on WAR's 3rd album, "The World is a Ghetto" (1972).





"All Day Music" is their second album (1971) which included "Slippin into Darkness" etc...
