Saw Stevie Ray Vaughan open up for Dire Straits in Ottawa 1984. Lit his guitar on fire during Voodoo Child. Mind blown!
You Lucky Duck!! I wish I was sitting next to you!!
Never had a chance to see SRV but saw Dick Dale at the intimate Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver shortly after Pulp Fiction revived his career and he was freaking amazing and having such a great time. When he wasn't blasting us with blistering guitar licks he was in constant banter with the audience, happily sharing tales of being back on the road and loving it. He was so thrilled - he'd just hot his first computer (as had most of us!) and he had this thing called "email" and if we wrote him a letter he promised to read each and every one but couldn't promise he'd write back - claimed he couldn't type very fast. More than made up for that with his flying fingers on his guitar.
I saw SRV on the bill with Roy Buchanan. Roy blew him away.
I hadn't realized Stevie played on Bowie's China Girl, but now I can hear his distinct style clearly, as with this tune.
On Joe Pool Lake!
RIGHT ON !!!!!!!!
Next time you brush teeth, try gargeling Dick Dale's Miserlou (Pulp Fiction theme if you are in doubt) Bonus points if you can keep it together 😜

'80s sound? o_O
According to wikipedia, surf music "was especially popular from 1962 to 1964".
Pipeline was one of my absolute favorites. Then. Cranked this version right up! Still a favorite.
80s. LOL. Kids.
Somebody knew. the Pipeline riff and also GLORIA! We were probably 13. It didn't go anywhere.
Three Italian nuns die and go to heaven where they are met by St. Peter at the Pearly Gates.
St. Peter says “Ladies, you all led such wonderful lives, that I’m granting you six months to go back to Earth and be anyone you want”.
The first nun says, “I want to be Sophia Loren” and *POOF* she’s gone.
The second says, “I want to be Madonna” and *POOF* she’s gone.
The third says, “I want to be Sara Pipalini”.
St. Peter looks perplexed. “Who?” he says.
“Sara Pipalini,” replies the nun.
St. Peter shakes his head and says, “I’m sorry, that name just doesn’t ring a bell.”
The nun then proceeds to take a newspaper out of her habit and hands it over to St. Peter.
He reads the paper and starts laughing. “No Sister,” he laughs, “this says ‘Sahara Pipeline, laid by 500 men in 7 days!”
"20 bucks, same as downtown."

In the 80's and 90's I worked for Amoco Production Company in New Orleans, LA. One of my co-workers was a legit Cajun, and he must have had an "archive" of at least 50-100 of these Catholic nun jokes that he could tell right off the top of his head. Many of them were, shall we say, ribald. Thanks for spurring this memory, those were interesting and fun times.
My favorite southerner told me he once engaged in an affair with the wrong coworker. He lost his job. He said to me, "I learned a lesson. Don't poke your pecker in the payroll.". I have lived well following his advice.
In the mid-70s, my grandfather told me the joke. But it was:
“Alberta Pipalini,” replies the nun…
That goes straight to my "try to remember this joke at the next 'dinner' party" mental list, and elicits a +1 on this tune too (cuz that's how I roll) - it's a 9 and Long Live RP and offensive (ha!) jokes!!

This version with two legends... wow!!!
The **** was I thinking? Decent? DECENT?!? I mean, by all rights this should be too cheesy, too bombastic, or something, but it just works.
so...
OUTSTANDING cover by SRV and DD!

Dick Dale passed away March 16, 2019 - not in 2015. In fact, I saw him last year at a small club in Oakland, and so glad I did! He put on an incredible show.

Fixed.
He is named in the song title, which might not fit on your screen....
Stevie Ray Vaughan — Pipeline (w/ Dick Dale)
I've rated this an 8, sometimes it's exactly what I want to hear and other times it's OK as background music...and other times it's just noise. Today I'm in the "I'm really digging this track right now!) Long Live RP!!
Stevie just foolin' around. And grinning.
You doin' the chicken on the beach again?
Actually the reference to 'elbows out' refers to the nasty territorial behaviour that surfers can on occasion exhibit.
Though these days I am wondering if the small-handed President can ram through oil pipelines as he wishes to do.
We all have missed you and the way you grin
The day is necessary every now and then
For souls to move on givin' life back again and again Fly on, fly on, fly on my friend
Go on live again, love again Day after day, night after night
Sittin' here singin' every minute as the years go passing by, by, by, by
Long look in the mirror we've come face to face
Wishin' all the love we took for granted love we have today Life without you all the love you passed my way
The angels have waited for so long now they have their way
Take your place
Should be played so loudly that you can't hear the police siren as the cops pull up to your door...
"Gennilmenuwanna beer?!?"

I'M SORRY I COULDN'T HEAR WHAT YOU SAID CAUSE I HAD IT CRANKED UP TO 11

I thought Frankie say no more.
Love the selection this afternoon, Bill! I'm rocking out (quietly) at my desk!
Same here, irresistible tune!
Pretty close and his rhythm section, Double Trouble was tremendous.

Surfing?
This song makes me think of oil and natural gas pipelines. And the fact that y'all will be driving lots and lots this summer.
The romance of the open road, eh?
The romance... cuffed and detained just outside of town, (face down on a gravel road at about 3.am by some enthusiastic Border Specialist) skippin one of El Paso's weigh stations (wrong choice on my part - but back then) - (knew I was Canadian right away) - log book - second one they found so far - Where do ya think ya goin at this time of night? Try some of that romance -
if you have that nugget, upload it....Norton's gone dave is still with us do it....
Other than that. love RP! ;-)
