Sexy vibe with Lou Rawls doing "Let me be good to you"

Seul

That Cash song touched my heart - wasn't familiar with this song… Thank you Beatle for using it in your video and Giles for posting the video.

From the same album - love it…............

God I love JC:

Katsushin

Not quite Johnny (no one really is), but Junior Brown is great for some non mainstream country.
This song is hilarious by the way…

Geo

"Too cold to start a fire, I'm burnin' diesel, burnin' dinosaur bones" . . . fuckin' classic line

. . . plus he more or less get's Bob Dylans' career to where it was supposed to be . . . genius

Livicated to the man leaving to Africa soon

Franco, the biggest African star, in his club in Brazzaville/Kinshasa in the 70s. Imagine being there with that band playing for you, Giles. African beer galore

Another HUGE African star, Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Not a bad club either! Commentary by Ginger Baker (Cream drummer who drove down to Nigeria to hang out and play with Fela). Notice its raining in the club.

I have a notion to post nothing but African shit during Sir Giles the first's trip to the craddle of the human race. So here is a nice soukous track featuring the living soukous guitar hero Diblo Dibala
