@wandeljw,
Yes, I can certainly confirm that after meeting him in the sauna the other day.

@Lordyaswas,
Does this have something to do with plowing?

@panzade,
Well, he was carrying a seed drill.

@Lordyaswas,
Bruce Springsteen has been doing a bunch of covers on his current tour.

Stayin' Alive, Don't Change (INXS), Friday On My Mind, Highway to Hell, and Royals so far.

While this clip is one version, done by The Silkie, it's awesome. This is John's writing during his 'Dylan Period'. I love the harmony with the female voice. Yes, that is The Beatles accompanying them in the studio. Around that same time, they made their version...perhaps across the hall in the studio.

I have just discovered the Lucksmiths (where have I been?), and find their cover of this song ("There is a Light that Never Goes Out") to be better than the original (and I am a Smiths fan).




The original...

@tsarstepan,
Mahvelous...is that Chris Thile?
I heard he put Nickel Creek back together.
Hooks-a-plenty in that cars song.

Since neither the Shadows played 'Sleepwalk' nor Santo & Johnny 'Apache' and since Jeff Beck really is a guitar god ...
