One of the Rock and Soul Review numbers from the '80's. Donald Fagen of Steely Dan, arranger. His show. The old Jackie Wilson hit song. Probably the last time you will ever hear Don Fagen play piano.
The old Steely Dan tune, this time done by Don as part of his Rock and Soul Review, with vocals by Michael McDonald. Stirring guitar by Drew Zingg. I think this was around 1991, before the Steely Dan reunion of 1993.
The old Steely Dan song, part of the Rock and Soul Review of the '80's. Among solos is the late Cornelius Bumpus on tenor sax, I think. Chris Anderson on trumpet. Oh yeah, Drew Zingg on guitar.
Love the One You're With. Live; two geniuses together, since Steve wrote the thing. Doesn't hurt to have David Crosby, Graham Nash as well as Booker T and the MG'S as back ups, eh? Too bad the original broadcast went to commercial. Sucks, tho still joyful.
March 2001. We embark just south of the Ponte Rialto spanning the Grand Canal, then thread the canal network and emerge out into the lagoon. Lot'so fun! I liked the old guy waving the tourists off.
This was the one that was almost taken down by the Maine tree fall. These are Concord grapes, and the second year of planting. Looks like a bumper crop. Joyce and maggie are dead-heading the thousands of daylillies she has planted in our thimble plot.
From Florence, in our rented car. We encountered a funeral procession, which confused us, but we eventually arrived there. We were actually looking for the Taccini pottery factory, which we found. It was a Sunday, but the family showed up and let us in. hard to describe.
