zombywoof Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 Like a fire in a whorehouse on a houseboat (quote courtesy of Mr. Zevon). And he still ain't in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Arghhh, send lawyers, guns and money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren would have never sold out to that crap anyway. I agree. Warren is in better company not being in the R&RHOF The best "contest" I ever saw was in the early-1980s when a beer company sponsored a search for the great unsigned American band with the prize being a recording contract. If I recall correctly the three finalists were the Del Fuegos, my personal favorite the Long Ryders (with Sid Griffin) and Del Lords. Surprisingly, all were great choices. The Del Lords won but then turned the prize down not wanting to be sponsored by a beer company earning them the nickname America's Most Honorable Band. All three did get recording contracts but only the Del Fuegos went with a major label. Edited March 20, 2020 by zombywoof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

75 Hummingbird Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Surely can`t underestimate Warrens guitar companion on this recording . Neil ,in his second or third prime ...nailing the harmony ,blowing the harp and doing what he does .....rocking ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKing777 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Hmm, found it a bit depressing so then I thought to find a non depressing Neil tune and...even his happy ones he can make sound sad.... here goes: BluesKing777. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j45nick Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) And here's another, just posted from the "In My Room" series on Rolling Stone's channel. Fogarty sounds pretty good at 74, still singing this in the in the same key. Check out the guitar in the second clip ("Bad Moon Rising"). Looks to me like an early 50s SJ converted into a prototype J-160. CCR: Have you ever seen the rain?
