Chuck Berry 1969 Toronto, noted overwhelmingly white audience and a fantastic Johnny B Good and segue into Carol. Top notch.
We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

Only whiteys visible were one policeman (security provided by Black Panthers) and a few band members across groups. Great stuff too, highlight for me Sly and Nina.

Reaction to Mac Miller's Swimming album.
Would love to see the Dad's reaction to Faces, so much darker and even more prophetic, considering the circumstances of Mac's death.

Not sure what to make of this

Not sure what to make of this Just fantastic, thanks for posting this!
What a grin on the lead cellist, what a suit ("I'd like to know his tailor"), what confidence, and then the smiles (and lipstick) on the violinists - and the camera work.
He rivals George Clooney, etc. What a gorgeous production! And the young choir. Imagine back in the days of Vilvaldi et al, live orchestras and choirs.
And a great sound, even on Altec Lansing PC sub sats here at the office desk. I have yet to re-play on the main system.
I'd been looking around for remembered bass bass bass bass bass bass & bass from L'Orchestre De Contrebasses which I have an album of.
Perhaps it's a poor comparison!
Takes a while to get in to focus, an amateur audience recording, but what a venue, and look at that organ ;-
But the passion of the original link also reminded me of Saint-Preux Le Passion (which I have the LP of, but don't find on Discogs.)
I play it every few years ... so French romantic!
Cheers !!

This came across my desk from a piano e-group:
(4) A “perfect” Rachmaninoff recital
Mikhail Pletnev live in 2017. Venue not stated. Full of original conceptions.Mother Russia and the Russian Church front and center.
If you wonder whether to hear the entire recital, as an appetizer suggest hear first the Barcarolle and Etude Tableaux.

Recorded live at Les Cabaret Sauvages on 22nd and 23rd May 2007. Mixed on Atomic Valve Design Desk (AVDD), Studio Boxson.
If you get impatient with the mellow bits you could skip ahead, but why not try to absorb it as it is - or was!

The Wrecking Crew film/documentary.
I mentioned this to a younger friend (40ish) visiting tonight - he hadn't heard of it, or of the concept that many major hits were made by these studio musicians. Looking it up, I was surprised to see not only the trailer but also the full movie on YouTube. It was in a film festival here a few years back, I think. Later on TV.
Trailer:
Full film:
For those who hadn't seen it.

Good doco, much better than the Dean Martin film with the same title, Recently revisited thanks to Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. Still bad
