One of my all time favourites. Alvin Lee at the time was the worlds fastest guitarists.
Love the watermelon on the shoulder at the end of the clip. Hippy from way back. LOL

No Bob, although they did a great job of it.You mean to tell me " Sweet home Chicago"
Wasn't first performed by the Blues Brothers?

Bob, Woodstock to me was Joe Cocker and The Grease Band with "A little Help From My Friends".
Yup this was great CSN said they were "Scared Shitless" as it was their first live gig.
G'day,
I am listening to James Taylor's "Far Afghanistan".
Very haunting, especially to veterans now. I think it has quite a message to downtown USA/Allies.
Sorry tried to download the You Tube version but, being an old geezer could not get it to work.
Peace.

Occasionally, I'll yearn for the my days of riding choppers. 1970's.
Maybe that is what I'll do with the barn find '81 I've got out in the shed.

Now for something completely different. A few years ago I saw the movie The Decendants with George Clooney, where he played one of the last Decendants of Hawaiian royalty, the movie was of course set in Hawaii and the soundtrack was almost entirely made up of Hawaiin slack key guitar masters. This for me was a revelation. I have never really been exposed to it before and I found the music to be very beautiful. It is very different, which can be polarizing, the vocals especially, since it tends to be in native tongue. The guitar work is some of the most mellow and soothing I've ever heard. I sometimes put this on while reading or relaxing. Anyways here are a couple of samples. PS, if you don't like it, don't be a hater! Haha
Here's another little ear worm that I can't get out of my head. Lately I have been playing this song almost daily.
The Dead South

I give this a pretty good thrashing, the album is great too nothing like a live performance.....No Quarter is another that better live than a studio recording IMO

Another thrasher......has naughty bits too, well it's lame but you might want to shut your eyes mailman 
I enjoyed that one !
I can see how it can be your earworm.
The other day I put Black and White Night on the garage stereo while prepping for a full day ride, and OOby Dooby was the last song I heard. It became my earworm for 10 hours. Great song for an earworm.
The juxtaposition of Sonny Chillingworth and Rammstein just gave me whiplash.

That's hysterical!
My tastes in music really are all over the place. In my world 70's era rock and blues are the heavy lifters. But I can, and do appreciate everything from classical to bluegrass and country to Frank Sinatra. and every once in awhile the eclectic, like Hawaiian.
Bob, I loved those. And some classic Zeppelin. I guess my musical tastes pretty much run the gamut like you guys.
The term 'ear worm' was a new one to me but slowing things down, here is one of mine and a popular 'request' around the backyard firepit.

I really liked that one Robin. It's one of the great regrets of my life that I never learned to play the guitar. I bought a really nice Yamaha steel string, 6 string in my youth but never messed with it enough to learn how to play. My oldest son took it over when he was in high school and learned how to play. You have something like this, don't you? I looked it up once, when you mentioned it.
Wow, Bob, Yup, that's one of my baby's, actually my favorite guitar, A 77' to match my bike. I don't remember posting that, man you've got a good memory.....lol.
My memories good, just short.

That's a beautiful guitar!

I had to close my eyes Mick. Those little kids are freaky! Haha
Yup Bob, and at 40 years old she's loosened up and mellowed out real nice.
