He’s probably one of the best drummers ever.
Here’s a great video where they collaborate on a couple of their respective big hits. Enjoy!

Enjoy!

Over the next little while, I will be featuring some of my favorite “jams”.

First up is this fantastic performance of “Jingo” by Santana and Eric Clapton. They both are such fantastic guitarists, and it’s great to hear them play off each other.

I hope you enjoy this video as much as I do.

He co-wrote this song with Kenny Loggins and it was a big hit back in 1980. In fact, it won them a Grammy.

On March 13, sadly, the Doobie Brothers lost their drummer, Mike Hossack to cancer.
R.I.P., Mike

Don’t be. Crank your speakers, this is a feel-good tune, the kind you listen to full blast when the summer holidays start, or any other great occasion happens.
Today, I wanted to hear something fun and uplifting so here’s an old classic from Rare Earth. Enjoy!

I like songs with a good lyric so I love Supertramp’s music, but I like Rodger performing solo even more so. He’s very likeable, I think, that’s why. This particular video is a gem. Watch Rodger’s amazing solo performance and enjoy!

The video below is a rare live version of Davy singing my favorite Monkee tune: I Wanna Be Free (my mantra).

Oh Davy, R.I.P., you are free now.

Telephone Line http://classicrocklover.com/classic-rock-songs/e-l-o-telephone-line/ http://classicrocklover.com/classic-rock-songs/e-l-o-telephone-line/#comments Fri, 17 Feb 2012 16:43:33 +0000 Classic Rock Lover http://classicrocklover.com/?p=438 Electric Light Orchestra is a band that, in my opinion, is so under-rated. I had forgotten how much I love their music. What’s not to love: great vocals, nice lyrics, just a nice easy rock sound. I love driving in the country, with the windows and top down, wind blowing my hair all over the place, and E.L.O. music blasting. Here’s a great video of the band performing Telephone Line. Enjoy!

This song brings back so many memories of parties and dancing in packed clubs. Carlos Santana has always been one of my favorite guitarists of all time. I never went to any of his concerts, but I had the enormous good fortune of watching him jam with Eric Clapton in the finale of one of Eric’s concerts back in the 70′s.
