ITGITC Posted February 6, 2023 Author Share Posted February 6, 2023 What was that drum that Mick Fleetwood was playing? He pulled the ropes/strings on the side to raise the pitch, I believe. 1 Quote "Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent." - Victor Hugo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear some worthwhile music coming from the Brothers Landreth and offshoot projects by Joey Landreth and Ariel Posen. It’s mostly guitar based, but the writing, singing and playing (lots of slide, great tones, etc) make for some great modern roots based music. As a point of reference, they aren’t so far off from Chris Stapleton. It was nice to hear Bonnie give them a shout out. Those guys are from Winnipeg, my hometown. We've got a surprisingly good music scene here, and I like when the rest of the world tunes into that! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Samara Joy is the real deal. Ben Paterson on piano on her record, too. He's a stellar jazz organist as well. I didn't watch. I have no interest. Someone on FB posted a screen shot of a tweet by a random nobody on Twitter that said, "Bonnie Raitt? Now they makin' up people so Beyonce doesn't win" or something like that. Girl, Beyonce has something like 30 Grammys. She's fine. And Raitt has been in the biz for what... 50 years? C'mon. 3 Quote Keep it greazy!

GovernorSilver Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I didn't watch either, actually. I was checking out a jazz jam session in DC, led by a local drummer. He had a pianist as part of his regular trio for the first set. Then other pianists took their turns - 3 in all. Lot of talent in the room that night. I was just happy to watch - definitely not ready to jam with those cats. I didn't realize the Grammys were happening at the same time until a break between sets, when one muso asked another "Any Grammy news?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Tatum Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 "Beyoncé makes history with most Grammy wins of all time." Reminds me of Kanye West's rudeness in 2009. I can't help but think that somebody is pulling strings with money etc. behind the scenes to promote Beyonce, i.e. a modern form of payola. How else could this happen. Not that she isn't good or anything. It just seems to me that she's hyped to the max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Tatum Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Is it possible to watch a recording of the show? I thought I'd like to watch a few minutes of it, or see if I could find any highlights. There's a couple of links to the show on Youtube that turn out to be bogus. I found something called the "Premiere Ceremony", which is separate from the main show. The opening number featured Bob Mintzer (ts, Yellowjackets), that was kinda fun. But I'd like to get a taste of the real junk food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Successful means something different to everyone. Financially, peer recognition, size of following, there are artists who were big that didn't make much money. Some that made a lot of money and disappear a couple years later. People who were great artist, but average person never heard of because artist never spent time publicizing themselves. There are different levels and types of success. Two great bass players I went to highschool with one most of you know the other probably many of heard or might of worked with, but the average person will say who. They are John Clayton and Bob Glaub. I imagine everyone knows of John Clayton, but Bob a lot less yet both are out there still working. So effective and successful to who? Funny I've heard of Glaub as he has a signature bass but never heard of Clayton, lol. 2 Quote '57 Hammond B-3, '60 Hammond A100, Leslie 251, Leslie 330, Leslie 770, Leslie 145, Hammond PR-40 Trek II UC-1A Alesis QSR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamanzarek Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I was happy to see a nom for Best New Artist and win for Best Bluegrass Album go to Molly Tuttle. She is an incredible guitar virtuoso and her band plays Bluegrass with a jam band attitude. Along with her originals she does some great covers in her shows. Check out her version of "She's a Rainbow". 2 1 Quote Gibson G101, Fender Rhodes Piano Bass, Vox Continental, RMI Electra-Piano and Harpsichord 300A, Hammond M102A, Hohner Combo Pianet, OB8, Matrix 12, Jupiter 6, Prophet 5 rev. 2, Pro-One, CS70M, CP35, PX-5S, WK-3800, Stage 3 Compact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apple Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 There's some very horrible crap these days that people call music and rally behind it.

TommyRude Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Finished watching last night. I thought the show was good, mainly because of the performances, most of which were live. I too enjoyed the stripped down Stevie medley with Smokey and Chris Stapleton. Just about all the performances were great, possibly some overkill on the vegas-cirque-du-soleil stuff on some songs. Not sure what Harry Styles is doing, the song he played seemed like a coldplay tune, but he gets points for not playing it safe. The tribute/remembrance section I thought was excellent. Even the autotune singer seemed to fit perfectly with his human counterparts, it all worked very well. The hip hop tribute was a true extravaganza, amazing how they seemed to pull it off without any major noticeable gaffs. And finally, Trever Noah was an excellent host. So there you go.. right back atcha all you Grammy haters! 1 Quote Some music I've recorded and played over the years with a few different bands Tommy Rude Soundcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Mullins Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 No interest in watching the Grammys live; figure I can watch any highlights later if desired.

On a more serious note, I'm glad to see that Molly Tuttle received a Grammy. IMO she's a monster talent.

On the real, IMO Taylor Swift has been sold short because of how hot she is, and also a bit by her babydoll voice.
