Rock and Roll Tribe

A Global Army of Veteran Rockers

We all love to rock, that is our common denominator. Ear splitting guitar and drum beats that feel like CPR are my loves. Sometimes though a simpler approach can take a song, sparse and stripped down, to a place of wonder.

Jerry Garcia would be 70 tomorrow..what a lovely version of the great old song

Thomas, so great..it got me thinking of this tune that I love. a chill down the spine because it's so damn pretty version. Thanks!!

One of the on the radio songs I don't mind

side note, saw a PSA about what to do if you are in a "shooting situation"..screw that, I barely mastered "stop , drop and roll"

A little silliness but a sweet version

crossing my fingers for Bruce Tix for Nov show in Omaha

An acoustic cover of the great Jon Brion song "Trouble".

A lot of tuning and talking at the beginning, so if you don't have time to spare, scooch up to 1:30.

So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years.

The whole thing. It's like he disappeared and then came back on his own terms. I didn't know how to take it. I'm a huge Monkees fan, no doubt.
