Jimmie Vaughan and Bonnie Raitt – The Pleasure’s All Mine – Austin City Limits Celebrates 40 Years, 2014. Two of the very best that thankfully have been with us for a long time.

Stevie Ray Vaughan – Voodoo Child – Live at the El Mocambo 1983. Let’s be honest: no one will ever, EVER be able to perform like Stevie did that night at El Mocambo. He is just unique!

Allman Brothers Band – Come And Go Blues – Live at Beacon Theatre, 2003. Definitely one of the finest, most superior quality rock and roll tunes ever composed and recorded. Never gets old. I’ve been listening to them since high school when this album came out. They definitely passed the test of time. Lyrics: People say that you’re no good But I wouldn’t cut you loose, baby, if I could I seem to stay down on the ground Baby, I’m too far gone to turn around Oh, if only you would make up your mind Take me where you go, you’re leaving me [Incomprehensible] behind Woman, you got those come and go ..read more

Bonnie Raitt – Storm Warning – Live Very, very few people can carry a song such as this one with such emotion, like Bonnie does. Simply beautiful! Lyrics: Storm warning, feels like a heavy rain Winds on the coast tonight We may get tossed tonight Storm warning, he made it pretty plain He’s fallin’ for another, found a new lover (And he won’t be back again) Can’t stop a river, when it’s burst it’s banks I’ve seen the look in his eyes He’s in love and hypnotized Time of mourning There’s already been a flood of my tears Such a sense of loss tonight Nought to do but ride it out Can’t stop a rive ..read more

Gary Moore – Parisienne Walkways – Live at the Royal Albert Hall, 1992. The master at work! No one had a vibrato like him! Very few artists can truly bear their soul for us to share. Gary’s guitar sings, screams, and cries. And, so does my heart! “So underrated, just because he didn’t bow to any media, he didn’t once use his talent to earn millions of pounds, he didn’t compare himself to other musicians saying he’s better than them, he didn’t do a controversial interview – he didn’t do anything that media wanted him to do – he got onto that stage, just so he could spread beauty in the form o ..read more
