greetings. I leave you with one of my favorite albums since the '80s
John Fahey - God, Time, and Causality. Fahey was a unique and very versatile solo acoustic guitarist, with dozens of album. I actually had tickets to see him, but the show was cancelled and I found out later that he had died on the operating table while undergoing quadruple bypass. R.I.P.
What's on your playlist?

Originally posted by Pargat Perrer View PostJust saw a CBC documentary on Buffy St. Marie, Canadian folk singer / songwriter.
Interesting facts: she was the first woman to breastfeed (for real) on TV.
The TV show she breastfed her son on: Sesame Street
Big Bird: "That's a strange way to feed a baby."
Buffy explains that many women feed their babies this way.
By the end of the clip, Big Bird says he finds it lovely ... I think that's the word that was used.
Have to say, after seeing this I'm a big Buffy St. Marie fan.
Documentary is called "Buffy St. Marie: Carry It On"
edit: oooh. this is 1994, Joni breaks the law and chain smokes in Much Music studio.Last edited by Fred Henderson; Tuesday, 27th June, 2023, 12:21 PM.

Good score on the video! I will bookmark for later.
It's all a matter of opinion of course, but I respectfully submit that when it comes to guitar solos, neither Richards or Wood were in the same league as Taylor. I give you two songs as "evidence"
Sway, from Sticky Fingers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIlVba5jtQE
Can't You hear me knocking, from Exile on Main Street https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gz5mI6tqm_Q

Keith Richards? Ron Wood? How would you compare either of them to Mick Taylor?
Ronnie Wood playing lead with the Faces ... pure rhythmical soul.
Keith Richards playing lead with the Rolling Stones ... pure sloppy muscle soul ... flex on a single note !!!
Mick Taylor playing lead with the Rolling Stones ... pure technical soul ... Mozart esques !!!
Aged ... still vital ... together on the same stage ...
R.I.P. Charlie Watts
