I liked the piano videos. I also enjoyed the Cat father and son. Keep 'em coming!

Good stuff Arti, keep it coming.

The first time I remember seeing Elton John was here (I was 7):

I'm an REM fan and I'd never seen this, apparently their first TV appearance:

I've never heard any Deftones before. I've heard OF them. What rock have I been hiding under? I would have dug that if I was paying attention 10 years ago, but now I'm mellowing in my old age, nothing heavier than The Carpenters for me. Ok, maybe a little heavier...

Man I'm just like you guys. Youth spent banging my head. Now I like most everything but hip hop music (if you must call it that). Ever since "O Brother Where Art 'thou" I've loved "Old Timey" type music and bluegrass. One singer (she's not obscure by any means so I know y'all have heard of her) that I think is a freakin' angel is Allison Krauss. I just get transfixed when she sings. She can sing anything.

Here's a few.

And some ol' timey

I love "discovering" a new genre of music. I just never gave this type of music a seconds listening until here lately.

Allison Krauss is a fav, Lew. what a voice and phrasing! Jeff and I are mainly classical and jazz fans with some blues thrown in. As horn players, Tower of Power, Earth wind and fire and Chicago were our style growing up. Now our son is changing the tone of the family...
here's one of his bands playing "Spoonman" by Soundgarden. He's the bass player (no one in the band is over 15!!!...)

Awesome job! I will make sure and show my daughter this, it will motivate the heck out of her! That sounds pretty darn good for a bunch of young teenagers! I'm a jazz freak also. I still play The Chicago Transit Authority all the time. If we ever get together, Jeff simply has to play the trumpet solo in "Introduction" for me; I'm sure he can rip that one with an arm tied behind his back. I love that solo and the way it segues in and out. My old chem. teacher from HS went to school with all the guys from Chicago and used to watch them practice in a chuch basement when they just got together. Man to be a fly on the wall in that room. I tend to like their older stuff as they got to "love songey". I don't think they'd have ever gotten that way had Terry Kath not put a bullet in his head. What a tragedy.

Loobie,
Did you catch Allison Krauss when she was singing with Robert Plant? What a mismatch- and yet it worked. I saw Robert Plant in Boston a few years ago- got to sit in the third row. I have pictures somewhere- looks like we were in a small club. We could smell his incense from our seats.
What fun! We even got to go backstage but were told to "maintain". I saw Robert through a door leaning on the wall talking and about crapped myself. lol. He is taller and bigger than he seems on stage.

I did catch that on Palladia I think. You're right about it working. I think that woman has a truly special gift and you could put her up there with the guy from South Park with the tracheotomy and it would work

. Got to see Plant in person, that's pretty cool. I was a Led Zep freak, as we all were at that time, and he is truly a legend. I always thought he was a little guy too.
