Title: On the way home...
Post by: Masherbrum on June 05, 2007, 10:47:45 PM
from my buddy's, I'm listening to "The Vault" on Sirius and this tune comes on.   The volume goes up, and I cannot help but remember this man, and this performance.   Even though this took place in 1971 (2 years before I was born), this is, IMO, the best single live performance ever.

I'll probably catch flak, but it's my opinion.

Whenever I try to think of favorite live performances this one (http://wm.atlrec.com/matchbox_twenty/more_than/brightlights_450.wmv) always comes to mind.

...Oddly enough,  I'm not a big fan of Matchbox Twenty.

It's good to know using the phrase "IMO" gets ignored.   :aok

A buddy at work let me borrow "A Concert for George".    My wife calls the Beatles "overrated".    But, for this here were glued.   I had never seen it either and got choked at some parts.   But when Joe Brown played "I'll See You in my Dreams", she lost it.  

Billy Preston did a great job with My Sweet Lord.    I have watched this one on YouTube for a while.   I've always liked Billy Preston, even his work with the Beatles (he was the 5th Beatle, IMO), and the Rolling Stones.   He seemed to get the fill-ins just right everytime.

Oddly enough, George Harrison LOST a lawsuit charging him with using "He's So Fine" as the basis for "My Sweet Lord".
