If you like Toto, I've posted their 35th anniversary tour concert in Poland here at the forum a few weeks ago. You'll find the thread here — the audio is in full stereo and was professionally mastered, because they've released this concert as a DVD — and it includes a 25-minute "behind the scenes" take. ;)Quote:

I hear you. I too have experienced that exhaustion. I have experienced the vipers bite, and the scorpions sting. I assure you the rats may never win and the path to which I've chosen has indeed had thorns along the way...I will continue to seek, and that which stings can bit me! It's the warriors way. But you know this deep in your heart as you are a warrior...Aragorn!Quote:

This is not for the faint of ear...I'm not a big fan of metal rock but this one is melodic...That is some of the coolest music...

A fantastic and somewhat underrated, yet prolific session musician and songwriter, and arguably one of the greatest singing voices of the 1970s, '80s and '90s. ;)
I don't remember whether I've ever posted this here, but if so, then it's worth a re-post. :p

When I woke up this morning
I found myself alone
I turned to touch her hair
But she was gone, she was gone
And there beside my pillow
Were her tears from the night before
She said: "Give up your guns and face the law"
I robbed a bank in Tampa
And I thought I had it made
But the hounds picked up my trail within the glades
So I ran
And I stumbled on this cabin
And she came to me once more
She said: "Give up your guns and face the law"
I don't wanna leave her
I don't wanna die
Deep within a cold, cold grave
With no-one 'round to cry
But I've got my pistol
Now it's time to choose
Shooting here or hanging there
And either way I lose
And now I'm in this cabin
Where my own true love should be
Instead there lies a note she wrote to me
And it says:
"No, you can't live by the bullet
But you sure as death can die
My love, give up your guns or say goodbye, goodbye"
And the sheriff now is calling
With his shotgun at my door:
"Son, give up your guns and face the law"
I read that as a poem and that last line is killer.
(Not being punny)

He was never a member of the Eagles, but you're not too far off the mark. He was once a member of The Doobie Brothers, for whom he wrote and sang "What A Fool Believes", and he was also once a member of Steely Dan, for whom he wrote and sang "Minute By Minute". He later on also performed the piano part on the instrumental version of the song by guitarist Larry Carlton, who himself had also been a member of Steely Dan at some point.
Other than that, he also sings backing vocals and plays piano on several records by Christopher Cross — e.g. "All Right", "Ride Like The Wind" and "No Time For Talk" — and he did the backing vocals on Toto's "I'll Be Over You", as well as a couple of duets such as "Yah Mo B There" (with James Ingram) and "On My Own" (with Patti Labelle). His song "Sweet Freedom" was also used for the official soundtrack of the movie "Running Scared", and he's had various other chart successes in his own title.
Like I said, a prolific artist, with a very distinct voice and a very recognizable keyboard/piano style. ;)
In honor of the caterpillars turning into butterflies.
I just love the look and the colors in this video which bloom as the metamorphosis takes place.

My favorite Bob Marley song!
"Emancipate yourself from
mental slavery
None but ourselves can
free our minds."
Thanks, Shadowself
Enjoy, I know I sure did. I'm in love with the guitar play. :headspin:
