Wonderful...
I'd never seen this before. Nice to know that even genius musicians put gaspers in their gobs the wrong way round.
Agree
Fantastic stuff
Dunno
I saw it a while ago and might have posted it but it is fab and well worth posting again. Did you get the Lowell solo on a radio show tracks that were posted a while ago (with Linda Ronstadt on harmonies) - he played Willin', China White and Heartache - really lovely.
No, I didn't, Twangers!
Where can I find it, please? Sounds right up my street. (NB Were you up very late, or very early? Or have I simply been making an unjustified time zone assumption all this while?)
I'm in Uruguay!
On business. Long flight today! Try this

otherwise google "Lowell George WHFS-FM".
That is, of course, if you like country with a boogie beat.
You're the man to meet.
It's now safely tucked away in my iTunes. Thank you, T! (Blimey, I've morphed into one of the Sopranos! Silvio, perhaps, as Mr Van Z is a guitarist and also, I strongly suspect, thinning on top. Lose the bandana, Steven. Say it loud : I'm bald and I'm proud!)
NB Had to go down the google route, as the link had the download listed as unavailable.
PS Safe journey home.
Delays
Currently enjoying three hour delay in Montevideo. But there is decent wifi in lounge and a week's worth of Word Blog to go through so it could be worse. (**reaches for iPod for another lis to the the Lowell George session**).
Two degrees in Bebop
I am familiar with the first few lines as the band took this interview and used a short clip on the album Hoy Hoy! Great to see the actual film so many years later. And to hear Lowell sing so sweetly while smoking, now that's genius.
