Wow, never heard (or even heard of) that! Jimi took that whole arrangement lock, stock and barrel (and ran/flew away with it)! That original even has the "Hendrix Chord" (7#9) there toward the end! Maybe it should be renamed the "Roberts Chord"! ;) Excellent share, thx!

Ah well, as Zep showed us, everyone borrows ... and many just plain steal!

On another front here's a nice little time capsule from 1975...

Tina in her fine prime, Ike looking more than a little tweaky, and Todd with shot voice, giving this one more of a proto-punk reading. (He had a lot more vocal range, especially back in those youthful days. Must've been touring/partying a lot.)

Full story here.

An anthem acknowledging the beginning and the end.


Sometimes I feel like I am leaving life behind
My hands are moving faster than the movement of my mind
Thoughts and generations of my dreams are yet unborn
I hope that I will find them 'fore my moving gets too worn
If only I could live to see the dawning of the dawn
So we go on moving trying to make this image real
Straining every nerve not knowing what we really feel
Straining every nerve ending and everybody sees
That what they read in the Rolling Stone has really come to be
And trying to avoid a taste of that reality
On an early New York mornin' a mirror in the hall
Showed to me a face I didn't know at all
Lines were drawn around a pair of eyes that opened wide
When I looked into the mouth there was nothing left inside
So I walked into the little room and whistled like a sigh
As dawn light closed around me now my head was still in gear
Thinking thoughts of playing more and singing loud and clear
Trying to reach a friend somewhere and make that person smile
Maybe pull myself away from that old lonesome mile
That often comes to haunt me in the morning
All my friends keep telling me that it would be a shame
To break up such a grand success and tear apart a name
But all I know is what I feel whenever I'm not playin'
Emptiness ain't where it's at and neither's feeling pain
Well now what is going to happen now is anybody's guess
If I can't spend my time with love I guess I need a rest
Time is getting late now and the sun is getting low
My body's getting tired of carryin' another's load
And sunshine's waiting for me a little further down the road

^ My favorite song off that album.

Im still learning the real JA. Wild Turkey is awesome and i can see 3rd week really growing on me. On to the playlist

Sent from my SM-G950W using TGR Forums mobile app

I'm not sure there's ever been a Todd song in this thread, which is kinda nuts. Maybe I'm wrong. But still, thanks nice post.

Yeah, I’ve played a few Rundgren in this thread, too.

Oh shit, I will try to control myself, but...

And you can play as much Airplane and Tuna as you want. You have my blessing.

Armadillo.

This new banger from Leon Bridges. Crazy good music video too!

This is fun, particularly if you're a picker...

The original from Burgers is pretty special too!

Jorma Kaukonen is likely the most underrated rock guitarist.

Everyone knows Hendrix, Page, Clapton, Zappa, and on and on, but Kaukonen is relatively unknown and has an incredible spectrum of technique and impact on rock guitar.

Favorite Hendrix :

One of the two most recently uncovered songs of his.

Just heard this one. Was not familiar with Lee Ritenour.
