An interesting interview with Linda Ronstadt that's worth a listen to when you get 10 minutes to spare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c718aryLEmM

A wonderful, wonderful interview RJ. A must for those who know and love Linda.

Another where you may not know the name, but you'll know the music...Happy Birthday to Mr Mark Farner, American singer, guitarist and songwriter, best known as the lead singer and lead guitarist for Grand Funk Railroad who had the US No.1 single with their version of 'The Loco-Motion' which was produced by Todd Rundgren. They were the most successful US Heavy Metal band of the 70s selling over 20m albums.

That's very interesting TT, thank you I've always been a fan of The Steve Miller Band, and of Steve himself. I didn't know about the Les Paul connection though. Very cool!! Here is Steve Earle....he seems to be showing some 'wear and tear' since Copperhead road! But this is interesting too..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbuzIP1t-_s

Yep, he had something going for himself there for sure RJ.

My last tidbit on Steve Miller.

In 71 on the way to the airport, flying off to Europe, Steve was in a car accident and broke his neck then had a full year off from any musical work.

Australian icon Helen Reddy passed away yesterday aged 78.

I was in my early teens when she won Bandstand in 1965 (a local "Oz has talent" type show at the time) when she left for the States after that to pursue her career.

And became well known later for her song "I Am Woman".

That's sad news TT. I was never really a fan, but for sure, she made an important contribution to the music world, and simply as a woman activist. 'Angie Baby' was a great song.....I did like that one.

A good summation in how I saw Helen also.

I was a little bit more rock'n'roll n blues lol.


I chose Angie Baby as it was a weird song that I couldn't piece together at the time.

In the song, at the end some dude sneaks into her room for a bit of 'something, something' (I guess) and Angie uses her radio to minituarise him back into the device for safekeeping lol.

Anyway, a good tune.


Part Lyrics:
Stopping at her house is a neighbor boy
With evil on his mind
Cause he's been peeking in Angie's room
At night through the window blind
I see your folks have gone away
Would you dance with me today
I'll show you how to have a good time, Angie baby

When he walks in the room, he feels confused
Like he's walked into a play
And the music's so loud it spins him around
'Til his soul has lost it's way
And as she turns the volume down
He's getting smaller with the sound
It seems to pull him off the ground
Toward the radio he's bound
Never to be found

The headlines read that a boy disappeared
And everyone thinks he died
'Cept a crazy girl with a secret lover who
Keeps her satisfied
It's so nice to be insane
No one asks you to explain
Radio by your side, Angie baby

Me too.....in those days I was more into Talking Heads, Rolling Stones...and...and...and!! Angie Baby was controversial and if released today, perhaps it would be even more so. The line between sanity and insanity is thin indeed....and who draws that line?!?!

Reminded me of another non music piece.

The delightful Gina Gershon in a terrific comedy bit on Just Shoot Me early 2000's.

That show crossed so many politically in-correct lines probably wouldn't get off the ground these days.

Gina at her absolute best at the 3:55 to 4:43 time.

After a while everything is just ‘history’

(even music that will be created by artists TODAY )


Recorded in ’63 live at the Crawdaddy Club in Surrey, England.

Blues harmonica player Sonny Boy Williamson.


Backed by The Yardbirds who had only just formed that year by Keith Relf (he started his band in Arts College).

Keith’s band originally included an 18yo Eric Clapton, playing guitar here.

(Eric left the band right after the release of The Yardbirds hit single For Your Love, stating musical direction differences. Eric had wanted to play a more blues style and later formed the super group Cream. Eric was immediately replaced in The Yardbirds by Jeff Beck - who was then later joined and ultimately replaced by Jimmy Page.)

Eric Clapton, who? -- just kidding. As a teenager, I remember all these groups well. Interesting history -- thanks...

Hahaaa, and my pleasure Steve. I enjoy contemporary music naturally but I do like to serve up a bit of history (every so often ).


I saw The Yardbirds live in Melbourne in the 2nd half of the 60's when Jimmy Page was with the band (I was about 5 rows from the front looking at the right hand side of the stage - directly in front of Jimmy who I got for the whole set ).


Eric left after the following song was recorded (and became a big hit for the band) with Eric the lead guitarist getting about 20 milliseconds of playing time on the song (might have prompted his move lol who knows).

The Yardbirds (w/- Eric Clapton) - For Your Love

Then Jeff Beck joined the band and they had great success with this song.

The Yardbirds (w/- Jeff Beck) - Heart Full Of Soul

(Anecdotally Jimmy Page was in another studio at the same time and snuck in for a look see )

I’ll close out The Yardbirds with the following song where both Jeff Beck & Jimmy Page played lead guitar.

(ps the cameraman must have been a drummer in a past life, with the 2 notable guitarists getting a few look ins during the clip - BUT at least someone took a video recording).

The band had followed along with the emerging psychedelic era of music at this stage in their own metamorphisis .


The Yardbirds (w/- both Jeff & Jimmy) - Happenings Ten Years Time Ago
(for some reason you HAVE to watch in on YouTube - but at least it is not copyright delisted where some company owns the click bait rights)

Ultimately Jeff Beck went out on his own cutting a single Hi Ho Silver Lining which was quite pop in its nature.

Then an FM station in the States preferred playing the flip side, the B track, Beck’s Bolero which went on the launch Jeff in his future ventures where many an artist wanted Jeff in their sessions.

Jimmy Page formed Led Zeppelin and cemented his own niche.

While Keith formed himself another band.

Then sadly, and you just couldn’t believe it, Keith Relf died at age 33 when accidentally electrocuted playing an improperly earthed guitar.
But his own legacy lives on.
