Hello friends! We're going to be going live with our February Fan Favorites voting and submissions on the Discord later today. Please take a look at this short video to get the scoop.

We're celebrating Black History month all month on YT and via the Fan Favorites, and we're asking for your help in terms of recommendations. 

We're still tweaking the final verbiage...so look for the Fan Favorites channel on Discord to be active later today.

Thanks!!!

Why not a little Hendrix?

Nina Simone....Billy Holiday....John Coltrane

Is it permissible to submit a song, which is not performed by a black artist, but tells the true story of a historical event that is relevant to Black History Month? For example: Bob Dylan's "Hurricane"

In 1961, drummer Max Roach released an album called Freedom Now Suite, with his wife Abbey Lincoln on vocals. It’s worth a listen.

I am a 70 year old white guy whose favorite song was performed by Jimi Hendrix. His performance at Woodstock of The Star Spangled Banner/Purple Haze and Treeanova Junction I consider a masterpiece. The Star Spangled Banner epitomized the 60's. Very turbulent and even violent. The solo at the end(called Terranova Junction on my DVD) is the most beautiful guitar solo I've ever heard.

I'd go with the Billy Cobham & George Duke Band. :)

Sorry for going back THAT far, but you need to put in Louis Armstrong! Singing and trumpeting, you have to put in live appearances from TV of Cab Calloway (Minnie the Moocher...) as you have to really see him performing. Chuck Berry.

Doug, have you given any thought to dipping a toe into the discography of Bruce Hornsby? For most folks, their knowledge begins and ends with his '80s hits like "Mandolin Rain" and - speaking of Black History Month - "The Way It Is." But Hornsby has an eclectic and astoundingly varied musical career that veered quickly away from feeding the hit machine and into the areas he wanted to explore, including avant garde, jazz, classical, bluegrass, funk, and a bunch of stuff in between. And as a pianist, I would think you would be a fan of, truly, one's of music's true keyboard virtuosos. His music is challenging, thrilling, beautiful, and never boring, and when he's backed by the (multi-racial) Noisemakers, you cannot find a better, tighter live band. Of course, he sings often of the South, of race relations, and of things that fit neatly into Black History Month, and he's been a longtime collaborator with Spike Lee in many of his films. For albums, I'd recommend "Harbor Lights" and "Levitate" to start - some of his more recent stuff is pretty challenging for the uninitiated - and for a smattering of some of his best songs, try "Lost Soul" off of "A Night on the Town," "Spider FIngers" off of "Hot House," "Continents Drift" off "Levitate," or "Fortunate Son/Comfortably Numb" or "Little Sadie/White Wheeled Limousine/Just One More," both off his jaw-dropping double live album "Bride of the Noisemakers." He's perfect for Black History Month, too - his songs are rooted in the American Southern experience with all its heartache, sweetness, longing, and terror, and I suspect you'd be royally rewarded by even a passing listen. Thanks! -- Charlie Herndon

Addendum to my treatise above: Perfect for Black History Month - "The Way It Is" by Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers, New York City, 2004. It's his old hit, but this is a good, typical rendition in concert, where there is a lot of improvisation going on and plenty of energy and fun, and, always, the music -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTTsWgyPiJI. Enjoy!

Bruce Hornsby is one of my personal faves...I've seen him multiple times live. Harbor Lights and Hot House were in heavy rotation for me in college.

I am not surprised; a man of vision and taste you are! I enjoy all you do, Doug, and a personal thanks for a wonderful review of "Quadrophenia" by The Who, my all-time favorite album (and this from a guy with more than 1,000 in his collection). It was for wanting to hear that single reaction - though I love your Yes and Genesis reviews, too - that I became a patron. Keep up the great work!
