Good thing the Bass and Mandolin layed off the hooch some!  Looks like a helluva party.  Billy has been in the Country Music Hall of fame since he was about 25 and played shredder guitar mostly before that - amazing talent.

Summer afternoon song

One of my favorites of the Beatles near the end of their career as band: "The Ballad of John and Yoko"

 

 

This song actually had a sort-of sequel in Lennon and Ono's (otherwise pretty forgettable) album Some Time in New York City, called "New York City". The tempo is much faster, and it has some nice guitar (1:30) and piano work (3:00). The backing band Lennon and Ono were using at that time was a NY band, Elephant's Memory.  While Elephant's Memory on their own never put out anything remarkable (back in Germany, I actually found one of their LPs in the bargain bin of a record store, and the song-writing was thoroughly disappointing), but they had some excellent instrumentalists (Wayne Shorter on Guitar, Gary Van Scyoc on bass, Adam Ippolito on keyboards, and Stan Bronstein on sax). Interestingly, for a short time at the end of the 1960s, Carly Simon had been a member of EM.

Drop out of life with bong in hand Follow the smoke toward the riff filled land Drop out of life with bong in hand Follow the smoke toward the riff filled land Proceeds the weedian - Nazareth Proceeds the weedian - Nazareth Creedsmen roll out across the dying dawn Sacred Israel holy mountain Zion Sun beams down on to the sandsea reigns Caravan migrates through deep sandscape Lungsmen unearth the creed of Hasheeshian Procession of the weed-priests to cross the sands Desert legion smoke-covenant is complete Herb bails retied on to backs of beasts Arise arise arise - The Son of the God of Israel Jordan river flows on evermore Bathe in glow of sunlight’s beating rays They feel the serpent's standard rule our days Stoner caravan emerge from sandsea Earthling inserts to chalice the green cutchie Groundation soul finds trust upon smoking hose Assembled creedsmen rises prayer-filled smoke Raise up seer’s holy prophecy Plants down on upon years of the sun now feeds Seed of Eden fall on nurtured soil Onward caravan prepare new bong Weed-priests creedsman chant the right Judgement soon come to Mankind Green herbsmen serve rightful king Hemp seed caravan carries The molten fire flowed up toward Zion Flight of the nazarene to seek the cheribum Rides out believer with the spliff aflame Marijuanaut escapes earth to cultivate Grow-room is church temple of the new stoner breed Chants loud-robed priest down on to the freedom seed Burnt offering redeems – completes smoked deliverance Caravan’s stoned deliverance The caravan holds to eastern creed - Now smokes believer! The chronicle of the sinsemillian Drop out of life with bong in hand Follow the smoke toward the riff-filled land Drop out of life with bong in hand Follow the smoke - Jerusalem

Apologies in advance if this is TMI/LAMP.

 

Just after  Fathers day I'm sharing my boys favorite Steely Dan songs. I think its cool as hell that they like some of Dad's music. They are both above average musicians (sax and trombone). AFAIK they pretty much listen to rap, but for whatever reason they've never been keen on sharing their music with me which is disappointing. I hope they aren't trying to shield me from the lyrical content. My younger one was taken aback when I explained what the Fez referred to in is fave:
