Since everyone seems to like Mrs Miller, here's a favorite of mine:


She comes in quite handy if you're ready for your guests to leave ;)


This Mrs.Miller stuff is fascinating. I did not know the story, so I found a great summary of her life and career:

Bring on William Shatner for more Beatles mayhem!
 
I've been having conversations with @nikomen about the Band On The Run album. While I like many of the songs quite a bit, there are a couple that really annoy me. They are Let Me Roll It and Picasso's Last Words. So of course, Let Me Roll It was in my head all bloody day long; and then I woke up in the middle of the night to pee and I started humming, "Drink to me, drink to myself." (I even got the words wrong, apparently.)

So all I can say is:

Not to rub it in, but I luuuvvv the guitar in “Let Me Roll It.”
 

Heard this at a friends house the other night and can’t get it out of my head.

ICE NINE KILLS x REEL BIG FISH - Walking On Sunshine (Official Music Video)


Two entertaining bands deviating a little bit while walking on sunshine
 
This one from With The Beatles / Meet The Beatles has been in my head a couple of days now:



It is actually quite a pretty song, especially when they go into "You're giving me the same old line..."
The Pretenders did a nice cover of it:



I'd like to get that version and make a 5.1 out of it. What do think, @nikomen .

Too bad there aren't any original Beatles versions without distortion in the vocals.
 
Had this 6-song EP on repeat for the last month or so - if you like Roy Ayers, or Emergency on Planet Earth-era Jamiroquai, or late '70s jazz-funk in general, this should be right up your street - amazing to see anyone new doing it in 2024.
Some fine funky bass playing there on Perfect Night and Anything You Want. Especially on Anything You Want. [Edit: Oops, meant on Perfect Night.]

Roy Buchanan - Please Don't Turn Me Away
Loved his playing on his 1953 Telecaster.
You have reminded me to listen to his 1985 album "When A Guitar Plays The Blues" as I haven't played it in quite a while! An excellent album.

Yeah and throughout the other tracks too - the bassist is obviously a lot busier and flashier than Paul Jackson with all the slap and pop, but the rhythm arrangements throughout reminded me a lot of the Herbie Hancock Head Hunters and Thrust albums, the way everything is syncopated and sparse so no instrument is getting in the way of any other instrument.
 
I have had “Bible and a Gun” by Jason and the Scorchers in my ears and in my head all week. Went back and listened to the Thunder and Fire album today, which, in my opinion, is right there with everything else they have done. They were pioneers in their day and should have been much more successful than they were. We all have bands like this in our collection and these guys are at the top of my list.

I haven't heard it. I'm sure that it will sound better than the stereo version! :giggle:
