I’m learning Badfinger’s Baby Blue on guitar (what else?) and getting so I can keep with their recording pretty good, and I get a thrill out of different places in the song each time I jump in along with it. ---

> [@madsircool](#): > > The original or the What Do You Want From Live version? Original. Was not familiar with the live > [@E-DUB](#): > > Pretty much anything from Quadrophenia or Born To Run. Quadropehnia is the greatest album ever. I almost was killed because of Thunder Road, but that’s a story for a few drinks. Let’s just say it involved the line “You ain’t a beauty, but, hey, you’re all right.” Let’s add a few more to the list Squeeze, Black Coffee In Bed I’ve got a live version of Koko Taylor singing “Hound Dog” - you’ll never listen to Elvis again. Cheep Trick - Surrender. I always say that’s my kids’ theme song - “Mommy’s all right; Daddy’s all right; they just seem a little weird.” Stevie Ray Vaughn - Willie the Wimp and his Cadillac Coffin BB King - The Thrill is Gone. Greatest blues song ever. ---

For some reason, during this lockdown, I’ve been kind of obsessing about a local rap artist called Serengeti – well, David Cohn, and he now lives in LA. But I’ve just had this song in my head stuck on repeat all day. It’s a baseball song about the Steve Bartman incident during the 2003 playoffs. No idea why this is just embedded in my subconscious, but I’ve been also listening to it over and over and over again. As a Cubs fan, this was just such a shameful moment, and I’m a bit more emotional than usual in this time. And I love this redemption – especially as one of my close friends was close friends with Steve Bartman, and he’s a class act through and through by all accounts. [“Don’t Blame Steve” by Serengeti](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slIHk6QytcM). ---

Boogie Wonderland - Earth Wind and Fire. We were at a lakeside dive at dusk on a summer week night, one of those old places that will always smell like beer. We went out on the huge screened porch looking out at the water, with a wooden dance floor, empty. No one there but us. Put a coin in the juke box and Boogie Wonderland turned up to 11 filled the room, and we danced, the two of us. It was magical. ---

I REALLY wish I had seen MTB in their prime. Oh man, yeah. LOVE that live version of _24 Hours at a Time_. I bought a 2-CD set about 25 years back, “The Capricorn Years”, and I just about wore those discs out. Just a fun, energetic jam. I was thinking about starting a thread about great live performances lost to time, and the MTB was going to be one of the bands I talked about. One of the great things about modern tech is how so many bands are now recorded in hi-def at just about every performance, even if it’s just by audience members. So many bands prior to the 80’s have little footage of them performing live, and from the early 80’s to the early 2000’s, most of we have are fuzzy, VHS-res tapes recorded from shows like The Midnight Special. ---
