Me three. Phew! Happy Cinco De Mayo everyone! Made a huge skillet of refried beans for breakfast onward for the day. We live near a place that makes some of the best...authentico...muy authentico...and I finally found an ingredient that helps really mimic the lard they use quite well. Four strings for the win to all fellow players who know the rest of the band sounds like a tinny transistor radio without US. 😎. Cowabunga!
Cinco de Mayo marks the anniversary of the 1862 victory by Mexican troops over invading French forces at the Battle of Puebla. The triumph over the better equipped and more numerous French troops was an enormous emotional boost for the Mexican soldiers led by Gen. Ignacio Zaragoza.
Don't know where I've been hiding, but Duane Eddy's passing was news to me. Always loved Duane's "twang", and once got the chance to ask him how he came about his tone; "I just figured on playing the low notes, cuz nobody else was.". 😂 Love you, Duane! 🎸❤
I remember when this was released during the pandemic with that COOL video……It was so good and it was great to see you guys rocking out in your separate homes. And Lee with the horned helmet! 😅
Hello Leland and everyone! Happy Cinco De Mayo. I have Santana in my music collection, and I saw him 5 times live. I noticed that you also did session work with him. I wish Maureen all the best. Cheers, Leland! 🙏✌️
Love Cruel Twist......Has a Bassy Blues ROck vibe. Has Deep Purple...Rainbow take at parts. I seriously LOVE your Bass line in this LEE. My head was bouncing in time.

Today is also Greek (Eastern) Orthodox Easter, which we celebrated today with roasted lamb, chicken, potatoes, salad, and chocolate cake.. Christos Anestsi everyone, Kalo Pascha! Peace..🕊☦..
First, Happy Birthday Ron Carter! Second, best wishes to Maureen on her road to recovery! Lastly, I’m so glad I found your posts during the pandemic! I enjoy your daily updates - Whatever they might be - A party in the park, yard work, walking the dogs - Of course ALL the music! Thank you for welcoming us in! ❤️
I just wanted to stop in and say, thank you. You've contributed to so much music that has meant so much to me over the years. You've done lots of work with David Crosby (and his friends) if I had to pick one area of your work that has really impacted me. I'm sure you've played on many things I love that I'm not even yet aware.
Ron Carter turned 87 on Saturday and he’s still playing great! Karma is real, Kootch certainly knows! Mid to up tempo shuffles are Russ and Leland’s forte! Love that groove, thanks for another great play along.
Cruel Twist" is such a great song. There's a couple of notes in the riff that remind me of an Allman Brothers song "Good Clean Fun" Thanks for sharing your day..
Happy Cinco de Mayo, Lee! 🥂🇲🇽 🥰 This song is so great! Has a great vibe and feel to it. Very groovy! It's one of my favorites! Westher is the same here on Cape Cod, but we're getting rain tonight into tomorrow. I'm fixing my garden here, too, and Domino is helping! 😂 Love you SO much, Lee! Give my love to Maureen & the pups! 🎸🎶😃❤️🩷🩵💙🩵
I am one of those people who just cant understand how people can play the guitar without looking. The Late Garrumul was born blind and taught himself to play the guitar. So he played it upside down and back to front but it worked for him.
