Jack didn't mind loudness with others. He dug Cozy Powell as a drummer und Gary Moore as a guitarist too. Both were painful on stage.

I'm hoping to get at least some of that on CD. I've been trying to look it up. BTW, I had mentioned it before in another thread some time ago, but Jack said in an interview that Gary Moore was his favorite guitarist to be on stage with. He attributed it to their Celtic connection.

One of my favorites - Popa Chubby's Sweet Goddess of Love and Beer. Simple bass line, but I think it rocks.

It's playful. A bit too playful for my taste.

I need more repetition.

Swedish country singer Red Jenkins (Bjorn Raita) passed away unexpectedly 4 days ago. This is one of my favorite songs of his, it's a duet with Texas singer Amber Digby, whose birthday is today.

For your New Years Day enjoyment.

Proof that that Pauly Shore's vocal abilities are just as good as his acting ability.

The ladies are very good, though.

RIP Red Jenkins. I think I got him mixed up with another singer, though. I would never be able to get the great Amber Digby mixed up with anyone, however.

Does any of you guys know who played bass on this?

Aufgepasst Holländer, this guy here:

https://www.discogs.com/release/1096121-Labelle-Moon-Shadow

They play the song here at 20:38, the bassist occasionally strums with his thumb much like Chuck does and does have a long face (also much like Chuck), but whether Herr Rainey ever sported an afro like that ...

I like this even better (also with Rainey), of course it's a totally OTT treatment of a Cat Stevens song, but being OTT was part of Labelle's charm.

What on earth has poor old Charlie done to deserve this? Last I heard, he only punched Mick once and he had it coming after all. The black chicks are indeed the only redeeming factor. Come back Grand Funk Railroad, you might have been a little heavy-handed yourselves with it, but what is not forgotten, is now certainly forgiven!

Thank you Uwe!
Yeah that must be him.
That live performance is impressive.
