Honestly?

A lot of Taylor Swift. My daughter loves her and when we’re driving, I’ll glance in the rear view to see her singing along. It’s my favorite thing in the world.

... One of my snowbird pards from Canada knows the group of about 95% of any song I can come up with. I have never met someone not in the radio/music business that would know which artists produced one hits wonders, or even several that had just a few hits and disappeared. Many that grew up in the 60's/70's instantly remember "Signs" but would be hard pressed to remember it was from the 5 Man Electrical Band. Or Incense and Peppermint but have no idea it was from the Strawberry Alarm Clock. But he is very difficult to stump and it really blows my mind. 

You have clearly never met me! My old boss used to call me a “musical savant”, and he warned our co-workers never to get involved in a music trivia contest with me.

Well, I only perform music as a “side hustle”. However, now that I am semi-retired from golf clubfitting and clubmaking, playing music does provide a good chunk of my non Social Security income. Other than a few years playing in the band that opened for Rick James and the Stone City Band and a few recording sessions over the years, I really never considered myself to be a “professional musician”.

... Never said you were a "professional" although it wouldn't be a huge stretch. But like a community theater actor that performs for the love of the craft and little or no money, they are still in the biz. 🙂

I read somewhere that after the success of Spirit in the Sky, Norman Greenbaum left the music industry to become a goat farmer. I always liked that. It may be apocryphal, but I choose to believe it because it appeals to my sense of the absurd.

I heard norman interviewed a few years ago and he was asked if one could live comfortably from the royalties of a single big hit.  He started laughing and said one could if one limited themselves to two divorces.  He said its the third divorce that sends one back to work!  😄.

This is an unexpected combination. The whole album is excellent.

Which led me on to this.

From the the famous Chrome Dreams "unrelased" album.

Finally, I could listen to this man all day!

 

Saw Neil Young in concert with and without Crazy Horse.  Liked him better with Crazy Horse.   
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young was no slouch either.

... After introducing CSN&Y at a Chicago concert at an awesome outdoor venue, I was blown away when they played Suite: Judy Blue Eyes and in the middle everyone left the stage withy the exception of Stephen Stills that played an acoustic jam for close to 10 minutes. Then the rest of the band came back and picked it right back up. I have been a huge Stills fan ever since. Not surprisingly about 50% of the audience left for a bathroom or beer run and missed it.

Huh, interesting.  Last time I saw CS&N Stills had his son with him and brought him out for a couple songs.  
Personally I preferred them live without Neil Young.

I posted an Abbie Gardner video a while ago. She has the Live At Arcata Playhouse album available for free on her Bandcamp page which she is asking people to copy and share. Here is the link - https://abbiegardner.bandcamp.com/album/live-at-arcata-playhouse

Have at it people and maybe buy something else from her while you are there 😀

Interesting - me?

Won't be able to go to the Larkin Poe concerts in the UK in October. Only four venues, none of them in reasonable proximity to me. 🤬

However, Samantha Fish and Jesse Dayton are playing the Fire Station in Sunderland in October. Getting my ticket tomorrow.

So, at the moment, the following:
