Music... I Listened to Some

Per DoubleWide's post above... Remembered Klaus Nomi backed up Bowie on his first SNL appearance in 1979. This Vimeo clip has the 3 songs he performed - The Man Who Sold The World, TVC 15 & Boys Keep Swinging.
"The Man Who Sold The World" was covered by Nirvana on MTV's Unplugged.

Right on! I've been a fan since the late 70s. Still have the Slug Line vinyl LP that I bought way back then. Of course it all really kicked in for him when Bring the Family was released in 87. Such a great album!

Speaking of aging musicians still putting out great stuff, it's hard to believe that Bruce Springsteen is now 71 years old. I'm really liking his new album.

 
Happy shared birthday to Robbie Krieger of The Doors, Elvis Presley and David Bowie!
This "LA Woman" fan-made video seems good way prepare for the weekend - some nice vintage LA and Joshua Tree footage from the "When You're Strange" documentary interspersed with clips from Bullitt, Vanishing Point and Duel.

Thanks! Never seen that video before. Enjoyed it! I've watched all of those movies numerous times, so I really appreciate the clips.
 
I recently posted a Ryan Adams clip here, in reply to the Foo Fighters subdiscussion. Made me think of this performance from a few years ago. Probably my favorite track from his "Prisoner" album. He does a lovely job of performing it as an acoustic version. So many tasteful embellishments with the hammer-ons, pull-offs, walk-ups, and walk-downs. Great song.

 
I typically wouldn't post in this thread as I have, shall we call it, a strange taste in music, and no idea about musicianship, but this guy is incredible and I felt the need to pass it along.

I really enjoyed that, added to my YouTube music Playlist! Appreciate you sharing.
Now about your strange taste in music...I'm curious now, do tell!
My taste in music is different than most posted here, but not what I'd call strange.

Good one! Utilizing a few items from the Jack White bag of tricks.

He is quite the douche, but a hell of a musician.
