Its Sunday evening. I have had a good weekend. I wonder what Youtbue is offering for the nights adventure...
Click 1 - Gypsy Road - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6j7E7pvLxmI
Wow, without a doubt one of the coolest sounding "blues rock" bands ever. I've been able to see them several times but not on this particular tour. I think its is cool too see the band playing around the Aztec ruins. Hard to believe I didn't see this back in the day!
Click 2 - The Ballad Of Jayne - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6198qSm0Y0
One of the most underrated bands of the hair metal days. They got lost in the whole Guns n Roses scene. A really soft ballad that stands the test of time, but also demonstrates why they got lost in the shuffle. How could this band even afford that much production on their second album as the "metal" business was dying?
Click 3 - Fly to the Angels - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukmobha2krY
Never figured this one would end up here but that is what happens when you allow Youtube to guide you. Without a doubt, one of the prettiest singers of the 80s (not that I float that way) and one of the coolest sounding voices too (probably has to do with the effects channel). Love the visual of the vintage planes setting against the lyrics though.
Click 4 - Yankee Rose -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9_VIXvCgl8
Speaking of pretty, its my honeymoon night baby!! I love the late eighties David Lee Roth videos. These things are as funny as the lyrics that the man comes up with .... So give me a bottle of anything and a glazed doughnut to goooooooooo ............. forget about it! Coming off the fall out with VH, Dave went out on his on! I met Dave in Huntsville Alabama on this tour. Strange story, we were both taking a leak by a dumpster on the backside of the Von Braun. I couldn't talk him into some passes for the show but it was awesome, go back to Click 1 - Cinderella opened on an earlier album.
Click 5 - Get the Funk Out - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1AxoPTAgxA
Musically speaking these guys are tight. DAMN, that was one amazing solo at the start of the song! AND another one at the 4:45 minute mark! That singer spent a "minute" as the singer for VanHanlen!!!!!!!!!!
Click 6 - Solo/Eruption - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDOFIttS69I
Just for fun, we will end with another VanHalen reference. Eddy is an amazing guitarist! but needs to check his ego at the door. Then again, if I could play to well, the last thing I would check at the door is my EGO>
Nice trip!
