Desolation Angel Radio Thursday August 23rd

Kids,
Desolation Angel Radio hit the airwaves for a(n) (unexpected) live show. I thought I'd have a taped one, or not even one altogether due to work schedules, but Hurricane Isaac had different ideas, so grounded for the night, we kicked the joint live:

Chris Knight - Nothin on Me
The Americans - Prison Yard Walk
Cry of Love - Peace Pipe
John Fullbright - Gawd Above
Tom Russell - Mesabi
Chris Knight - Hard Edges
JJ Grey & Mofro - Country Ghetto
Josh Thompson - Love Of The Common People
The Steepwater Band - Indiana Line
Turnpike Troubadours - Call A Spade A Spade
Willie Nelson, Roger Miller & Ray Price - Old Friends
So, that's how it went and it was a blast.

Well then,
This one was a ton of fun to put together. I like doing theme shows, they're actually a ton of fun. This one was centered around, and featured the Bo Diddley beat, and how it's basic structure has influenced music for 5 decades now. It's one of those beats that is absolutely essential to a band to learn how to play live and make work. It's a beat so basic, and so great when it's done live, the baddest ass, coolest people in the room will get up and dance.
Bo Diddley (the original 1955 mono single) - Bo Diddley
Not Fade Away - Buddy Holly and The Crickets
Not Fade Away  - The Rolling Stones
Magic Bus - The Who
1969 - The Stooges
Willie and The Hand Jive - George Thorogood and The Destroyers
No One To Run With - The Allman Brothers
Bo Diddley - Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band
She's The One - Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band
Bo Diddley's A Gunslinger/Bo Diddley - Warren Zevon
Who Do You Love? - Bo Diddley
Thanks for listening and supporting the show, and this one marked the kickoff of the Claire Marie Plaisance fund. It's a way for you to help make the world a little better place for a 2 year old girl. Just listen and you'll find out how. Thanks for supporting the music and the musicians.
Peace out,
Kip
