This is Linda Ronstadt on Glen Campbell’s Good Time Hour (1971), doing Long, Long Time solo and then a duet (Carolina In My Mind) with Glen.  When I first watched it several years ago on Tubi, my initial impression was that her voice was sounding ...

. . . and speaking of indulging in happy powder, check out Steve Earle in Austin (1988) doing San Antonio Girl for an encore: Steve Earle - "San Antonio Girl" [Live from Austin, TX]

Martin Scorsese developed quite a coke habit in the 1970’s (I believe when he and Robertson were at one point living together in L.A.), and on one binge overdosed, ending up in the hospital. It sure looked like both Robertson and Clapton had be...

Wiki calls Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (2016 starring Tina Fey as a correspondent in Afghanistan) a "biographical war comedy-drama."  Although it was humorous and made me laugh a few times, I was not going to go as far as calling it an outright comedy, ...

 Robbie Robertson looks kinda wired throughout the film. "Kinda wired"?   @bdp24 , the whole time he is introducing Neil Young before Helpless he is sniffling and snuffling!  He looks lit up when he is playing with Clapton! On edit6:  I am pre... 
Favorite Tribute Albums?
I vaguely remember the Street Legal 8-track, @ezwind .  I think I remember reading that it wasn't a great commercial success, but I rather liked it.

Ooh here is a great documentary I totally forgot about - Mayor of the Sunset Strip (2003). It's not about specific musicians but rather the life of rock impresario and longtime KROQ DJ extraordinaire Rodney Bingenheimer. It's also a great reflec...

I am confused. How would it not? My experience, @gano , is that it most certainly does, and also that it is not only about wpc and current.  However, there seem to be some here and quite a few on audio asylum that will tell you it is all about ...

Roadie (2011) is a movie with a musical theme that I found to be easily watchable.  Ron Eldard portrays a member of BOC's road crew who has recently received his walking papers from the band’s management.  This was part of his identity, and in the...

. . . and I would really like to hear the Lucinda Williams cover of Born In The USA. . . . I remember when the Cowboy Junkies sarted performing a cover of Thunder Road (I think that would have been in '01) and I almost that I like the CJ cover be... 
Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?
If I never hear another oldy-moldy from Bob Seger and The Silver Bullet Scam again, that would be too soon.  As far as his "new stuff"?  He should have quit when he was ahead, which was at least 45 years ago.  "The song remains the same," right Bo...

@twangy57 , not everyone around here seems to feel this way, but I am in the camp that believes the electronics in front of a speaker will impact the way they perform.

Gimme Shelter (1970) about the Rolling Stones Altamont free concert of which one of the mistakes made was having the Hells Angels in charge of security.
