An uplifting video from Darrell Scott. Continue reading
Dylan wouldn’t be shackled to the expectations of the adoring throngs. He progressed as an artist to the chagrin of his folk-loving fans. He used to divide his concerts into two sections. First, he would play the old songs while accompanying himself on acoustic guitar. Then, he would switch to electric guitar and sing his rock songs. The audience would cheer during the folk set and boo during the rock set… Continue reading
This is part of Dean Martin’s variety show. Goldie Hawn was a big hit on Laugh In at the time. I have been told that Dean Martin’s ‘drinking problem’ was just an act. Supposedly, he had quit drinking and hadn’t drank for years. He must have been a great actor. Continue reading
The Meat Purveyors put on a fun show, judging by this video. I’d love to see them live soon. The second song on this video is my favorite. Continue reading
Delbert McClinton has been playing the blues for a long time. Wikipedia claims he has been performing since 1962. However, I heard him give an interview a few weeks ago, to Bret Dillan of KHYI 95.3 FM in Dallas, and I believe he said he began in the late 1950′s.

Australian, Tommy Emmanuel is one of the finest guitarists in the world. In this video he is riffing on the blues, effortlessly it seems. Continue reading
It’s no secret that Eric Clapton is my favorite musical artist. His take on the blues rings true to me. This video demonstrates why I could listen to Clapton all day. Great video. Continue reading
The trick to creating the effect of animation, without animating, is in the shutter speed relative to the revolutions per minute; you can make this out during the video. Fun video. Continue reading
David Jon Kasson is a Brooklyn based artist. His work is fresh and realistic. His finished works look quite natural, as if the subject has something on her/his mind. Wait just another moment to see if they speak to you. Continue reading
This is the most amazing ‘performance art’ I have ever seen. Ksenia Simonova can do more with sand on a light box than I can do with charcoal, pencil, paint or anything else. She is fearless as she moves from image to image, scene to scene to emotional and ever-changing music. The crowd is clearly moved. I would love to understand the lyrics and know the background of the pieces that played during her performance. Continue reading
