A Video Blog And Tribute to Classic Rock Music

When I was a teen I had a mad crush for Davy Jones of the Monkees, who sadly passed away today way too soon, at the age of 66. 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.

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!

The first time I ever heard this song, I was totally captivated by the guitar-playing. 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.
