Hello and Thank You for viewing my page. This page was created to be the home for music from my band "Earl Guthrie & the Boxwine Prophets", but I have also decided to place some videos and music from one of my favorite musicians and bands, Lowell George & Little Feat. If it was not for their music, I would not be playing music today.
I hope everyone enjoys what they find on this page, and feel free to check back often or subscribe to my channel to see what's NEW.
The amazing combination of musicians associated with Little Feat is wonderful; Ry, Bonnie, Emmylou, etc. Lowell's beginnings with Frank Zappa is pivotal.
I caught this lineup at Town Hall in NYC and met Don in LA who showed up at a Zappa rehearsal. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera so I have no record of the 3 of us smoking cigarettes together .
I saw Hunter at The Cellar Door after the name change to 'At The Door'. The next time was at ADAMS & he was terrible. He played the newest material w/'Rock Columbia' & 'Liberty'-? maybe - another terrible but adventurous LP his Wife Maureen did the Art for. I was backstage getting a very rare: TEST PRESSING of the Promo only Sampler Series of the 'For Dead Heads Only' series' 'Tales From The Great Rum Runners' EPs Signed & he was such a Prima Donna! He had to rush outside to get to do an Encore before the room was empty! He was so disappointed Murph was trying to comfort him as I was just standing there & Hunter said 'You got your stuff right?' ''Yeah." 'It's signed right?' "Yeah." Murph motioned to me to go on out & let him suffer in privacy. Is it the Audience's fault he had to try it all out on the road expecting Riotous applause for dreck he had to put out on Relix? I think not !🐄💨
You have a great Destiny Earl. He walked out of that one & said that: Garcia was perfectly capable of Producing that Album's Sessions himself. They didn't need me! Hearing him play his table steel is like the New Riders+ Dead+Feat/Lowell Nice collection! A Hollywood Furrier's Son did fine. It's a crime for people to let Lowell, Garcia, Cipollina, Bloomfield, others just go wild & implode. Sadly Beautiful. Have any Roches at The Wax Museum?
The Bayou - that is a place that will be standing in the middle of a Wildfire because it's a swamp inside. DC's basically below sea level & I've seen some great acts there: Warren Z, Mick Fleetwood's ZOOs 1st Tour, a few others (if not the Wax then the Bayou or Adams in no order).
Btw-if anyone is interested - Daniel Grooms was highly involved in the affiliated indie Radio Stations & XRT is probably one of those. His channel has a treasure trove of that era & every thing but The Roches it seems. I thank both of you.🤔🎼👍🥀🤷♂️🌹🐄💨
(I'd love to have one of those embroidered looking jean jackets w/I think it's the Sailing Shoes cover on the back as a group walked by me on a payphone in Rockville in '80-'81, but I could be wrong. It happened once before....
Where else had they played - The Birchmere? I don't think it would be many more than that few. I listened to that Show All The Time driving across the Country or whatever. It was a little shaky - I REMEMBER Paul introduce themselves "Blues Busters- Comin' atcha!" It's engrained in my mind 'cause I listened to it weekly at least. The only thing I thought was stupid was Hodge doing a skat type yodeling Zoobadee zoobadah, yeeyodelodello-type stuff like Minnie the Moocher's Singer in the Blues BROTHERS. I can't recall his name this second but that general yodelling was a little unsettling to me. Other than that (& we're talking about early '80s- how many Shows as a Duet do you have that were before Adams'? It's not many & Paul w/a light colored Strat & stinging licks- zip!🎶 "Ah!" Hodge Acoustic sat to S-L of Paul.
I was there. It was taped by my Sony D6c & I can tell it was a 2 man Group still. I was in good w/the Sndmn at a club in DC-ADAMS. When Blues Busters was still a Duo: Paul & Catfish Hodge- I was plugged into the Sndbd & it was perfect in every way. I taped Live AID & I didn't let a Single Song get cut. That's sloppy. Anyway, Paul intro'd 1-"I wrote this for Bonnie - she didn't want it so WE did it: 'I been down but not like this be-fore'(Dream)". Later "This is for Lowell; wherever you are:" & into the most beautiful version of Willin'. BIG, angry, sad Tears fell that night. I don't know if that was the 1st -3rd time that Duo'd played for a group of people but it WAS still a little awkward- not screwed up, but a little bit awkward. They did a lot of Paul's Songs 'If The Phone Don't Ring', et al & others from 'On My Own Two Feet', stuff that wound up on the 2 Blues Busters LPs on the Landslide label out of Savannah Georgia if not mistaken. Mostly Feat, Dixie Dregs & the same Babes as well: Bonnie, Emmylou, Linda, Nicolette Larson (she's on a LIVE American Bandstand that's just fantastic! It's Paul, Kenny Gradney & (from Paul's 'List' & caliber) Bobby Lakind. The others -?
Of all things this song got me through airborne school. I was singing it in my head, to keep from thinking about jumping out of a perfectly good airplane
Ah memories. I got this show on bootleg VHS back around 1989. I said goodbye to it, along with dozens of others, in 2009. This is the first time I've seen it since sometime before then.
I can’t believe Elvis Presley after making it big didn’t give big boy crudup a royalty check sure Elvis had plenty of money from 1970 through 1977 and wrote up a check of a half 1 million for the guy
@@BertisGuitar I believe the Midnight Special RU-vid page will show this complete episode of Midnight Special on Friday October 18, (2024). I have my fingers crossed.
This was my second concert and they blew my mind and of course I’ve been a hardcore Little feet fan ever since thank you so much for posting this. I had no idea this even existed. You’re blowing my mind. Thank you.
