  1. I've been inexplicably absent from VC for way too long.  Just checked back in today and thrilled to see this topic. 

     

    Here's my list of favorite female rockers/singers/songwriters/musicians. I will limit to currently recording/performing women (sorry Grace and Janis).  My list tilts heavily towards guitar playing women:

     

    Susan Tedeschi (more than a little surprised she hasn't shown up on any of the previous posts)

    Chrissie

    Courtney 

    Lucinda

    Sharon Van Etten (not yet on a first name basis :) )

    Nora Jones

    Amanda Shires

     

     

  2. Sorry, didn't mean to misquote you. Where's Deadbase when you need it?

     

    I asked the same question over in the SITA FB group, Diane replied he had not. Great tune! I first heard it when Jeff Daniels did it in the final scene of Newsroom (one of my favorite shows).

    Just to be clear, I think I said as far as I know he hasn’t sung it publicly before. I don’t really know, of course.

    Sorry, didn't mean to misquote. I'll check Deadbase. Oops, wrong band.

  3. Had Jeff played That’s How I Got to Memphis live before? I ask only because I’d love to track down a recording if one exists...

  4. Today is the 51st anniversary of the show that gave us Dark Star > St. Stephen from Live/Dead. Play it loud!

    And this:

     

    "The Grateful Dead have managed to accomplish a feat that’s almost unheard of in the music industry. The band that rose to fame largely outside the usual industry framework studio releases and album sales has now had 100 different albums land on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States.

    You read that correctly: the Dead, who took 22 years just to produce their first Top 10 hit single, have now accomplished what almost no other recording artist has ever managed to reach thanks to their latest archival release."
