You oldsters like me remember Midnight Special?
Burt Sugarman has finally seen fit to release his recordings of the TV show and many uncut for tv versions to Youtube. Lot of gems so far but also lots of lipsyncers. Don Kirshner Rock Concert was also good in the day.
https://www.youtube.com/@themidnightspecialtvshow Anyway I found a great Steely Dan song that was incredible from 73 the best version of SD. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/E2JWtuBLelw" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe> Thats Jeff Skunk Baxter playing slide( Rick Derringer did the slide in the studio on the album good but like skunk live) Denny Diaz is behind a great lead player on Rythem behind skunk.(He soloed on many hits for SD). Walter Becker on Bass but a fine damn 6 string tele player in his own right. |
Oh yea.

Denny Diaz with the telecaster used the sitar on the original recording. Palmer handles most of the vocals and skunks on percussion. |

The late Great Johnny Winter. Most blues fans know this but his start was playing guitar in Muddy Waters band.

I must have been out partying as I don't recall Genesis on TMS. And Phil Collins was were he belonged, being the best drummer in the business. |

This is going to be ugly the amount of time I will listen to these.
Forgot about that show. But midnight was a little late for me at that time. |
Yeah, fond memories.
I also like the Old Grey Whistle Test, plenty of gems from that show on YouTube. |

This just came up on my YouTube feed. Man, in my senior year of HS 1975, I was such a fan of The Marshall Tucker Band and the fastest thumb in the South Toy Caldwell. Charlie Daniels always said Toy was the best guitarist he had ever seen and Chet Atkins had high praise also.
Toy was a Nam war hero who was shot and severely wounded in a rice paddy in Vietnam. The surgeons told him in the hospital he was a lucky man he was going home with the lucky golden ticket. Instead, he told patch him up and returned to fight with his buddies back in the jungles of Nam. What a talent along with his brother Tommy no slouch on the bass. This was a badass show with MTB, Charlie Daniels, and Poco. Helen Ready wasn't much of a fan. Poco may be too much country for you Metal Maniacs and Rap fans, you cant deny the talent though. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9zMbtdOhZFc?si=zpBj1h37Nqe9DKLK" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> Toy in Nam with his guitars. https://i.pinimg.com/736x/ed/9b/fa/e...a6528e7bc2.jpg |
