For about 10 years (54 now) I've suffered from an unusual inflammatory polyarthritis which mostly affects my hands & fingers (swelling/stiffness). I've tried many things over the years that 'help joints/inflammation' (like high dosage/quality Omege-3 for example), none of which helped in any way. In fact some like the O3 actually make the pain worse. May as well be scoffing Jelly Babies. Methotrexate is what I actually need apparently, which should be started soon...
Incidentally, for those who have not seen them, the Tiny Desk Concerts, all of which are on You Tube, really are very good & feature some great bands.
Sadly, I'm not sure they are making any more, as they were on USA NPR (National Public Radio) & Mr Trump withdrew all funding for PBS & NPR shortly after taking Office.
But, as far as I'm aware, they are all still on You Tube, so a quick search should soon find them.
Agreed, some fantastic finds on there.
Dua Lipa's was great
This one too. So talented.
Nickel Creek?
And Marky went for Dua Lipa, whoever he is.
What IS the matter with you people? Ever tried proper music?
I actually still clearly remember reading the news on Ceefax/Oracle, and watching how it developed from "someone from Eric Clapton's band" to "a guitarist" to eventually finding out the full details of his and the other's tragic deaths.
SRV lost to us in a helicopter crash 35 years tomorrow. He was just 35 years old at the time and playing some of his best stuff after kicking addiction. IMO one of the greatest blues guitarists.
Spooky!
Just came here to post this on the anniversary of his last performance on 26th.
Prince was seriously underrated as a guitarist by many. It's a little 'showy' for me though.
Hat man is Marc Mann. He played the Concert for George in 2003 and really nailed a lot of George's slide work. In this he plays the first solo (Eric's in the original Beatles record).
Allman Brothers Band give their version of The Sky is Crying with extended guitar solos by Warren Haynes & Derek Trucks. In particular, Warren's guitar work here is sensational.
I air guitar the entire thing most nights before I go to bed.
Eric joined ABB for a couple of shows in March 2009 @ Beacon Theatre, NY. If you haven't seen it then it's worth looking up on YT. I think all the footage is there from both nights.
