Just watched Beth Hart and Joe Bonamassa live in Amsterdam on Bluray.
Great concert but I soon had to turn off the DTS mix and listen with Trifield.
Doesn't Joe look like John, Shuttleworth ?
They should tour together lol.
Great concert though with interesting extras too.

Enjoy Chris smile

Gabby Young and Other Animal's "One Foot in Front of the Other" is just fabulous.

The title track has a wonderful piano riff (I think that's the technical term) and the brass throughout is great.

It also has some great samba-style songs that the dad-dancers amongst us just couldn't help get up and swing those hips to.

No Sooloos system should be considered complete without this one.


Sooloos, Roon, G series (with LPS upgrade), 800 series (with LPS upgrade), HD621, AC200, Prime and PS, DSPs old and new.

Purdeys, Moke, Leica, 'Blad. Only the best.

Thanks dpstjp for this recommendation.
Fantastic albums sampled so far, more expense coming, but samples listened to don't sound anything like an Eric Burdon tribute band.

Just watching the Johnny Cash, we walk the line DVD tribute to the great man. It is great fun, especially "the Carolina Chocolate Drops" performing "Jackson".
They would be great at The Little Rabbit Barn lol
This was recorded April 20 2012 in Austin Texas.
Enjoy, Chris smile

Saw the C C Drops last summer at a festival. Freaking amazing musicians and the fiddle playing lady has a powerful voice. They played every home made blue grass percussion instrument imaginable. Highly recommended.

Try Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - The Real Deal: Greatest Hits Volume 1.

If you want a 'toe dip' pointer, try track 8 - Tin Pan Alley. This track is a laid back example and fantastic musician ship. A great system test if ever there was one.

A great guitarist but sadly no longer with us.

Hi All but especially those on the other side of the pond.
Could I turn this thread on its head and kindly ask fellow members for recommendations in the "Zydeco" genre. This music is infectious and I would appreciate suggestions of high quality authentic recordings to add to my library.
TIA Hector

Another Saturday Night is generally considered to be a classic compilation that covers the genre. All the Ace compilations are worth checking out, well researched with great sound. Not all of it qualifies as zydeco though.
