Social Distortion ("Don't Take Me For Granted" - read whatever you want into that, or nothing at all if you wish)...
...Happy belated birthday to Philip Bailey, formerly of Earth, Wind and Fire ("Easy Lover," with Phil Collins; so exciting to see rock stars take helicopter rides and learn about the aerodynamics of flight - zzzzz - it's a good thing this is such a good song since this is full of kissass '80s vanity crap)...
...yesterday, the former John Simon Ritchie would have been 50 years old (here's his utterly twisted take on "My Way," recreated in "Sid and Nancy" starring Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb - and no, I definitely do not endorse any of this)...
...and in honor of today's birthday of Butch Trucks, here is a performance of The Allman Brothers Band on "The Tonight Show" from '91(the first number is "End Of The Line," and the second with Doc Severinsen and some of the "Tonight Show" band - including the recently departed Tommy Newsom - is "Kind of Bird," a tribute to Charlie Parker, with great playing by Doc, Dickie Betts and Warren Haynes...Johnny got into some really cool stuff towards the end of his run, and this is an example)...
..and before I forget, Happy Mother's Day on Sunday!
