New Riders of the Purple Sage – Hello, Mary Lou

Video

Thanks to suddenly disabled embedding on my original video, The Band performing "The Weight" with The Staple Singers (check out the performance on YouTube anyway, it's really great), I've called an audible. Check out the great Buddy Cage pedal steel solo on this NRPS cut. CCR also did a great cover of this song on their Mardi Gras album, which was released the same year as this cover was released on Powerglide, the second New Riders album. I'm guessing this video was probably a recording of a live performance in support of that new album.

The Band with The Staple Singers – The Weight

Video 4 Comments

Check it out: Rick Danko's playing a fretless Ampeg bass in this cut, and for some reason he looks (and sounds?) like Dennis Hopper when he's singing his solo. The solos from Mavis and Pops are treasures. From The Last Waltz concert, filmed by Martin Scorsese.

The Two Man Gentlemen Band – Fancy Beer + Prime Numbers

Video

My expression of fraternal esteem to everyone here at the WGOM. In song form, of course.

Make the jump for "Prime Numbers," which is sort of like musical Number Munchers, but in a song about ladies' measurements monogamy vs. polyamory . Continue reading The Two Man Gentlemen Band – Fancy Beer + Prime Numbers →

Well, alright! 50,000 watts of CH Week coming at you, from Monday to Sunday, right here on WGOM!

The power of Hank's voice still resonates nearly sixty years later. From his second appearance on The Kate Smith Evening Hour, 23 April 1952.
