Music Monday - Timeless
This is not the original Blood, Sweat & Tears group, but David Clayton Thomas is the original singer. Very powerful voice. They are a very old group that had many great hits. I think this song stands the test of time. BTW, is it me or is that Jerry "the King" Lawler playing 2nd trumpet? (Go ahead and insert the 'evil grin' here)

Music Monday
That little ole' band from Texas:
You have just heard REAL rock and roll!
“If you're looking for youth, you're looking for longevity, just take a dose of rock 'n' roll. It keeps you going. Just like the caffeine in your coffee. Rock 'n' roll is good for the soul, for the well being, for the psyche, for your everything. I love it. I can't even picture being without rock 'n' roll.”
~Hank Ballard

Always thought these guys were amazing. Burton Cummings, the lead singer, has one of the most distinct (and best) voices in rock and roll history. Did they ever do a bad song? This is an older cut that shows off the tightness of the band. Be sure and listen to the harmonies and transitions. They don't miss. Give a listen to one of the greatest bands to ever hail from Canada! This 'll make you wanna get up and dance!
As with all good bands they are having fun. Good tune to stir up the music soul!

Wow!
She calmly walks out on the stage: Then sings, a capella, a powerful tune!
What a voice.
"So she poured out the liquid music of her voice to quench the thirst of his spirit."

Blues Monday
Roy Rogers is legendary. Not the one that had Trigger stuffed. The guitar player. He's played with everybody and all over YouTube. Here's a great example of his talent:
