    Same song from before a show in Berlin. I just love Tyler's voice.

    This guy is really amazing, not just as a guitarist but also as a songwriter.

    It's easy to get lost in music like that...cosmic...what?! It was suppose to go on for at least another 10 minutes...

    Have you ever listened to music so sublime that it hurts when it ends...

    I was expecting it to go on for at least a whole other day.

    This one's a bit more jazz-fusion-ish.

    This version of the song came out when I was 14 years old, but it was already in the charts in the UK before it hit the charts here in Belgium and the Netherlands. The video clip above is from Top Pop, a Dutch pop charts program on Dutch television at the time, presented by Ad Visser.

    It's not an original, though. The original was written by Shuggie Otis in 1971, and his version has more of a country vibe to it. The guitar solo in the Brothers Johnson version ─ which has been shortened for this video clip ─ was not played by them, though. It was recreated from Shuggie Otis' original solo by session cat and jazz virtuoso Lee Ritenour, and it is comprised of two overdubbed electric guitars ─ most likely a Gibson Les Paul ─ playing in harmony.

    The song was not a big hit when it was originally released by the Brothers Johnson, until the remake of the movie "Shaft" came along, with Samuel L. Jackson playing the role of the eponymous detective.

    Plini's music takes me back to my undergraduate days. I was 'forced' to take a music appreciation/exploration class and we wrote music critiques. I did mine on Joe Satriani "Flying in a Blue Dream",

    and an excellent job I did in my humble estimation... but the teacher gave me a B. I showed my review to several other students and they agreed that I should have received an A. They were, as we use to say 'Chicks' and the teacher favored them...

    Anyway, I might have chosen Plini to do...

    Of the last few years, this guy has been one of my favorites:

    My daughter did a performance of 'Spanish Serenade' on her self-taught ukelele after about a year of playing. She got a standing ovation with acclamation that she would be the next Yo Mama. Nobody recorded it (her mother or I). What a loss...it was play worthy. I so wanted her to get serious but she just wouldn't.

    As a sidenote my adoptive dad tried to teach me to play the guitar as a kid and gave up after a single lesson...

    I have that album, and I saw Joe live in 1993. It was on his "Extremist" promotion tour, but he did play "Flying In A Blue Dream" and several other songs from that album, as well as some stuff from his earlier albums ─ e.g. "Satch Boogie".

    I've known guys who hate Satch and Vai because they're such technical players. They're merely jealous because the only thing they know how to play is the pentatonic scale.

    Is that so? I've first heard the song maybe a few years ago when I saw Quentin Tarantino's movie Jackie Brown, I've never heard the song before that except from the brothers I know the song called Stomp which I like a lot too.

    This song is a real ear worm to me now that I've discovered it again, it's not that I only dig but I'm addicted to it. What can I say, when it comes to the real music from 70's, I'm a sucker.
