Song: Bang A Gong (Get It On)
Artist: T. Rex

Song: Starry Night
Artist: Joe Satriani



This song was written by Satriani, but it reminds me of the old standard Sleepwalk (which is also covered on this album). It's been 20 years since it came out, but it's timeless (IMHO).

And I thought the similarity of the Satriani album cover to the T. Rex cover in my previous post was pretty cool, too.

Yes! Songs like that one are the reason we have this thread - every penny that UT has expended on this board can now be considered well-spent.

Mid 70's - Captain Beyond - Sufficiently Breathless.

I was very pleased to find a live 2017 version of it by the reformed Capt. Beyond:

I wore out my LP version of the Common Ground album, and one of the reasons for that was this song.

David will be missed - I previously posted Shadow Captain, one of his best efforts.

David Crosby, one helluva beautiful voice and amazing songwriting talents.

This duo with Graham Nash doing "The Lee Shore" really highlights that voice of his:

Song: Free Man In Paris
Artist: Joni Mitchell



Contains one of the all-time great lyrics: "Stoking the star-maker machinery behind the popular song."

This song features an all-star supporting cast of players, with Jose Feliciano and Larry Carleton on guitar.

Also from the Crusaders: Joe Sample and Wilton Felder.

Oh, and David Crosby and Graham Nash on back-up vocals.
