Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

The incomparable Ella! I love hearing her play with her signature song

They just got so many things right



Cool lyrics ":O}

Foolish Heart
Grateful Dead
Carve your name
Carve your name in ice and wind
Search for where
Search for where the rivers end
Or where the rivers start
Do everything that's in you
That you feel to be your part
But never give your love, my friend,
Unto a foolish heart
Leap from ledges
Leap from ledges high and wild
Learn to speak
Speak with wisdom like a child
Directly from the heart
Crown yourself the king of clowns
Or stand way back apart
But never give your love, my friend,
Unto a foolish heart
Shun a friend
Shun a brother and a friend
Never look
Never look around the bend
Or check a weather chart
Sign the Mona Lisa
With a spray can, call it art
But never give your love, my friend,
Unto a foolish heart
A foolish heart will call on you
To toss your dreams away
Then turn around and blame you
For the way you went astray
A foolish heart will cost you sleep
And often make you curse
A selfish heart is trouble
But a foolish heart is worse
Bite the hand
Bite the hand that bakes your bread
Dare to leap
Where the angels fear to tread
Till you are torn apart
Stoke the fires of paradise
With coals from hell to start
But never give your love, my friend
Unto a foolish heart
Unto a foolish heart [Repeats]

George I want you to sit down and think about what your doing.

I sincerely doubt that TR posted this for any reason other than he wished us to enjoy it.
Musical tastes being what they are I'm sure he realizes than some might not enjoy it as much as he wishes we could.
I've tried many times to reach out to you on this very topic.
So let me put it bluntly.

If I had a daughter and you met her Would you really tell her that she is pretty but there are just so many better looking women?

If I spent years building a house for the homeless would you tell folks I did a poor job and that many could have done it better?

In both these examples does it even matter weather you are factually correct or no?.
You will have done an injury i n order to establish your expertise.
In order to be sure the world knows you are selective and refined in your views

George we already know that of you. We are your friends and so you don't have to be right.
You just have to show up.

As your friend I now need to tell you you can at times be very petty.

When I write something I think has value I expect criticism, sometimes I wish there was more criticism to allow my ideas to defend themselves.

But when I post music I love, music that taken my heart and has elevated my sensibilities
I do so in the hope that we might rejoice together.
Like TR I realize it may not grab others as it does me.

But then again it might and so it's worth the risk that it will not please others as it does me.
Others do not love my wife as I do, They have wives of their own to love.why should it be any different with my music?

But what I don't expect is to have another make unflattering comments upon any aspect of her being.
Appreciate her or leave her alone.

So why doe George continue in this vain?

So that's what I'd like you to contemplate. Why yell at another man's dog?
Call him over, pet him and few will object. But compare him unfavorable and your view will not be welcome.
Even if your a great judge of dogs his owner does not want to hear anything bad about his dog.

The owner doesn't care if conformation is a bit off.Dog lovers care little of that. They want to tell you about the things he's done, what he likes or cats he has chased. They want you to recognize his right to be as he is.

They want you to love him too. If you cannot..Discretion IS the better part of valor.

Fear not, yours is not a great sin. But it is a persistent sin. one you should look more deeply into.

Stop and think. Does anyone else do this? Why don't they? Why do you?

You are my friend, be a friend too of that which I love.

You make a very, very good point Daniel. My opinion wasn't asked for. It was far too ""generous"" of me to bother anyone with my unimportant opinion.
 
Your still not getting this George.
Your opinion is totally unimportant when we are talking about MY dog.
Your opinion is all that matters when we speak of YOUR dog.

An axiom old as they come, it's still here because it is invaluable in governing our relations with our neighbors
In hard time it can keep us all together even in disagreement.

If you can't say anything nice
then don't say anything at all.

If this saying is new to you...your a Russian spy!! LOL

Be warned Russian Spy we will do ANYTHING to get our George Back!!
 
For the record, I personally took absolutely no offense at anything George said. He likes Cuban music, so do I. We don't have to like the same exact music.

Dan, sometimes...

[compelling silence here, lolz]

Imagine the poor guy who had to do the casting for this video..He'll never be sane again!Worse! He will always feel FAT!
 
To make matters clear and dispel uncertainty.

George I hold you in my highest regard. You have had to endure things I prefer not to imagine.
You have been betrayed by friends and country. Your poor body is a wreak.

Your mind plagued by voices not your own.

Yet there you stand a top the ruble of you life.
And
"There's a light that shines around you
That gives me
Just a little sweetness, just a little light."

Thank you for being always my friend.
 
What can I say, the guy just keeps growing on me...


But this plays in my head when I think of Fats

Ry Cooder is one of the greatest, he travels far and wide in the world of music.

Hate to kvetch but some music from Cuba without Ry Cooder moves your hips and feet MUCH better. Some of the best music from Cuba leaves me open mouthed in appreciation and shock that some music can SMOKE like that.
Even the repetitive piano part leaves me breathless. The piano part has a name which I haven't learned, oh the shame. I mostly find the piano part annoying.

I know, I know. Only my unsolicited opinion.

You can still move your hips!? LOL
