     I saw Eric Clapton many many many years ago and Mark Knoepfler was playing 2nd guitar  Phil Collins was on drums.

     Certainly a Testament to the guys standing in the music community to be able to call these guys up to play side men.

  • Is there a thread about what you DON’T want to listen to anymore? 
     

    Mine would start with Aerosmith. I can’t change the station fast enough when I hear that garbage

    As anyone  from here in Northeast Ohio can tell you, if they are of a certain age,    Five of those were  from the regular  WMMS  "get the weekend started"  routine. (from the 70s...not sure how long it went on).     Every Friday for a number of years, the weekend got kicked off  with Born to Run,   Friday on my Mind by Earthquake,  Cleveland Rocks  and the Murray Saul  Get Down Dammit rants.  Skinny Little Boy from Cleveland, Ohio  was also thrown in there at some point.  And we all were listening.  Just ask anyone here old enough to remember.  That protocol is emblematic of why Cleveland is the Rock n Roll Capital of the World. 

    And I threw Right Said Fred in there later, just because I like it and find it amusing,   but no one else posted in the interim.

    It was a BIG deal even those on the outskirts used to try and get the buzzard !

    They indeed  were the days NE Ohio rocked.

    Call me the party pooper amongst y'all.  I like my at least a little on the country, edgy side.  If not just Merle Haggard, my rock in my earlier years was more like ZZ...southern rock.  I have been listen to this guy last night.
