Allman Brothers At The Beacon – Southbound

It’s that time of year again! I will be going to see the Allman Brothers at the Beacon Theater in NYC this weekend. It’s the best place to see them. Here’s a great clip from a few days ago with a horn section and Eric Krasno from Soulive playing Southbound. Derek trucks looks especially happy [...]

Warren Haynes Solo, Jessica

It’s been a while (all summer) since I’ve posted, as I am still “Lost in Transactions” but I want to show a short video clip of Warren Haynes playing Jessica that I saw at Merriweather Post Pavilion. Enjoy! This was taken with my iPhone, not bad

The Dirty Mac – Yer Blues

My friend Glen sent this to me and I can’t stop watching it. Now here’s a band – John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards (on bass!) and Mitch Mitchell playing Yer Blues from the White Album circa 1968. Does it get any better? The interview in the beginning with Mick Jagger is great too. Enjoy!

Phish New York City, MSG 12-29-11

This was an unreal show. I am so back on the Phish train. Met my buddy Jim in NYC and we kicked it old school. We also had some great jams back at the hotel room. I was lucky enough to see my other good friends before and after the show, so overall it was [...]

Grateful Dead, Ramble On Rose, Copenhagen 4/17/72

My very first blog post was Ramble On Rose from 6/26/94. Check this one out from 4/17/72 and enjoy!

Grateful Dead Terrapin Station 4-27-77

I have some posts cued up but of course I’m Lost in Transactions right now, so I’ll throw a video up – Terrapin Station from the Capitol Theater 4-27-77. This Spring Tour was the best few months The Grateful Dead ever played. “The story teller makes no choice. Soon you will not hear his voice. [...]

Phish Merriweather Post 6/11/11

Wow, what a show. Check out this Wilson->Sand. Great light show too – enjoy! Phish – 6/11/11 \”Wilson\” > \”Sand\”

Allman Brothers Band – Blue Sky

Haven’t posted in a while so I found a good video to keep these posts current! Dickey Betts and Warren Haynes playing Blue Sky in 1991. Saw them a lot these years in college. Notice Warren playing a fender strat with lace sensor pickups (like I play along with another guy named Eric Clapton). Now [...]

Phish: Sample In A Jar

It’s been a little while since I posted. Been so busy opening our DC jewelry buying office that I can’t find the time to write – but there’s nothing worse than a blog with no recent posts, right? So I want to share a quick vid that I watch often for your enjoyment. Be back [...]

Black Friday, Steely Dan

I woke up with this song in my head. I found a version where Walter Becker did NOT take the guitar solo. (sorry Walter). Check out this ripping guitar solo by Jon Herington. Notice the drummer, Baltimore native and Samuelson’s Diamonds customer, (I sold him a bracelet once) Dennis Chambers. He’s one of the world’s [...]
