If you enjoy swing check out the band Asleep at the Wheel. They put out a lot great albums over the years. I really like their live albums - catches the spirit of swing as it should be.

Funny that you should mention that. They were the musicians and accompanying singers on the album I showed above.

I "found" this album that they did with Willie Nelson. Very fun album.

I think it's sadly telling that YouTube put this at the top of my recommended feed.

@George-K , this is good, fresh in a good way. Thanks for sharing.

I've been a fan of Bates' music since I heard his cello concerto about 5 years ago.

Fun Video (at least for me). LOL Video of Bruce Springsteen getting a request for a song that they have never done before (You Never Can Tell - Chuck Berry). Fun to see how they put it together.

I have zero improvisation skills with music, so would never ever ever be able to do something like this.

Not a Springsteen fan. Never have been.

But this is great.

Musicians think in a language I don't understand.

(just kid you. You still have (mainly) good taste in music!) :couple_with_heart:

Edit: you may like his album when he was at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. Here is one song.

Another song from his new album. I like it.

Lying in the meadow green
Dangling legs in a mountain stream
From the limb we could jump right in
Again and again and again and again

Up in the orchard on the hill
Sat right down and had our fill
And though the clouds are touched with grey
We know no rain will fall today

So let's take the long way home
And circle round the standing stone
through the fields and the old barway
We fill our pockets up with pecan along the way

All along the railroad track
Slip off that rail, break your back
Hear the sound of the croaking toad
The sun so round, and red, and low

Summertime, summertime
Summertime must yield to fall
And that's what hurts me most of all

Summertime, summertime
said goodbye at the garden wall
From the house I can hear my momma callin'
Winter come to us all my friend
Just as every childhood has an end
