SRV was a very fluid and talented guitar player and I have the Texas Flood album: however, whilst he copied Hendrix well, Jimi was a unique and magical original talent. I can still remember being completely blown away by one of his first TV performances of Hey Joe, although it is the B side of the original single that remains one of my favourite tracks of his, Stone Free. I recently found an interesting tribute album on youtube: that and some original gems are below. I saw a documentary clip recently explaining that the album track of Voodoo Child was a controlled jam session featuring various really great musicians who stepped in for the session including Steve Winwood, and was apparently needed to fill the album because they did not have enough other rehearsed and prepared tracks... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A5-WL8YkQwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6egSVu3rYhshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBg0XzXmv7Ahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjzZh6-h9fMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZBlqcbpmxY

The TV show Vigil has a haunting theme song Fuel to Fire which has introduced me to Agnes Obel, shown here performing a different song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1wgaFJ0750 (I see from a post elsewhere that hagatha is a fan) ...and haunting in a different way Townes Van Zandt (one of Urban Worrier's favourite artists) with a collage of great photos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yw8O2mdrxs...and a look at the Stones with a touch of family I had not seen before https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZiOFV7wQl8 (if you let it run on you get an interesting version of Little Queenie with Keith + Jerry Lee Lewis, at least on my youtube page)

I think I found Agnes through Dark as well. I am watching Vigil at the moment and hadn't twigged that it was her. Off to check out some of the other links

I missed the Sunday track on the day it was intended, but the Peggy Lee song is very cool indeed, and what more needs to be said about Leonard? If you have never come across it there is a great LC cover album called Im Your Fan, from which this is one of my favourites, not least of all because I very much like lyrics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJesz60fHHI

Oh, Wow, Moody Blues. That's a long way back! I hadn't heard Voices Carry before. From the Cowboy Junkies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48pFXE28y8Y

This one will wake you up on Wednesday morning! I dredged this one up from a very long time ago. My brain stores the most peculiar things: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VDnd2g1ZSw

Well of course as we come to the end of Thursday, I've got Friday on My Mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBJLoYd8xakI hadn't realised the Easybeats were an Aussie band, so no doubt well-known to flotsam, and he was probably going to post this song!

Here's someone we really, really haven't heard much from since the 60's, but I always secretly liked her when I was a tweenybopper even though she wasn't the Beatles and her dad was a square: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUBHy8WQlzU&list=PL808DAB9C1EBF96D6&index=14

You read my mind Lex. And Nancy certainly had an interesting catalogue - things like Bang Bang and Some Velvet Morning (a duet admittedly) come to mind This one is not an Aussie band but its a fine Friday song nonethless https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGgMZpGYiy8Enjoy the day!
