01-06-17 Hat tip to “Thud” for turning me on to this.

Popular songs re-worked to major or minor keys. This really changes the atmosphere of a song completely.

If you know of anything like this, drop it in please. Of course, extra points will be awarded for Stairway or Freebird reworks.*

I’ll always remember this idea as “Less Than a Feeling”.

*Offer not valid on any other music thread.

Another artist whose show I had the pleasure to work once. He opened solo for Rick Wakeman who was also doing a solo piano gig, great show. Anyway Al was another joy to work with, mellow and down to earth and funny, I like it when an artist I like is like that (too many likes in one sentence).

Alison and her band played 4 or 5 times at my theater throughout the early ’00s. Her smile is as beautiful as her voice. And Jerry Douglas is an animal.
