Oh Happy Day was a smash hit on the radio in its day, but I never saw this live version on TV. Also, love the Carlos, one of the few guitarists you can always pick out by sound alone, his playing is so personal.

Cahoot - see what I mean about Carlos? Unlike so many guitarists who think flash is where it's at and the faster the better, Carlos makes all his notes count. He is singing. He hears and plays real music. Anyone who has ever played electric guitar knows that the ubiquitous metal flash sound is the easiest thing in the world, that's why so many people can do it, and that's why it all sounds the same, there is nothing behind it. Good choice again, sir - this is music moves.

BTW, Cahoot, what do you think of this kid? To me, it is like listening to a parrot and letting yourself think it is speaking to you!

He’s good for a kid and it seems to make him happy. Kids have a lot of drive to pursue their interests and the validations keep him engaged. If nothing happens to seriously discourage him that drive will be called ambition when he gets older, and ambition is pretty important for commercial success.

This eight year old is good, and without the parroting blues affectations. Buddy Guy is just great with him. Very generous.

Like Santana, Baker’s play is quite personal. Almost too much so for cynical times that have seen it all, but he was an artist, and cynical times give way to hope and revolution. The instrumental part of this number ends both in hope and resignation.

Later in life Baker’s teeth were knocked out when he was beaten up in a drug deal gone bad. Afterwards he spent a couple of years teaching himself how to sing and play within his damaged life. He had to make a living, so he just did what he had to do.

Baker's a name I have heard through the years but never attached to any music. You never used to be able to explore interesting sounds so easily before the Web - they say the Internet is killing the music industry, all these golden eggs, all the dead geese that have laid them!

It has just come to my attention that Australians might never have heard of Margaritaville, or Jimmy Buffet. It's kind of mainstream, but it is a mainstream classic.

The parrot-head thing is international. In fact, it looks like he was just in Sydney last month.

Come on, Dan has done a few karaoke sessions with Buffet himself!

Ain't I Good to You
by Ella Fitzgerald and Joe Pass - these two teamed up in the 70's and 80's. This one is one of the clearer ones I found on YouTube, but you just can't go wrong with Ella!
