Video of the Week: Stanley Jordan–Stairway to Heaven

I have no words to describe what this man can do. Nor am I musician enough to critique or compare what he does to other guitar greats. But I did sit back and enjoy the man’s God-given talent. Hope you do as well.

Video of the Week: Hugh Laurie–Mystery

The English know two things about Hugh Laurie that many Americans don’t: one, he’s a funny guy, and two: he’s a fair musician too.

Oh, and another great talent: the ability to sound so American. How he does that is yet another mystery.

Video of the Week: Band On the Run–Literally

(Reprinted from Paste magazine)

People do some crazy things while they’re in traffic; shaving, putting on makeup, reading a book, curling their hair — you get the idea. But a couple of Russians have taken what’s possible to do on the highway to an unprecedented new level with their mobile rock band.

Observe as the guy who took the video, driving down the Russian highway, comes up on a motorcycle with a rather large passenger pod attached to its side. As he moves to pass it, it turns out, lo and behold: There’s a guy playing a full drum set and a guy playing an amplified electric guitar on the platform, rocking out in hardcore fashion as they speed down the freeway.

They don’t sound all that incredible as far as technical chops go, but if what they’re doing isn’t rock ‘n’ roll, I don’t think anything is. (By the way, we’re not sure this is legal, so we don’t necessarily recommend trying it yourself.)

Video of the Week: Linda Ronstadt–Long Long Time

Certain things make me prouder than others of being “from the ’70’s”…

This is a great song and performance.
