Saw their next-to-last show in 1989, still sad that they have not reunited. They’ve all been successful post-breakup, especially Bela Fleck & Sam Bush, but nothing would top a NGR reunion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, though I am probably more into his solo career. Also a massive Dylan fan here. He has done so many epic Dylan covers over the years (Visions, Desolation Row, Senor, Baby Blue, Not Dark Yet). Feel pretty good about hearing one tonight, just a matter of which. He’s also been known to bust out a Grateful Dead cover when playing Bay Area/Nor Cal, so 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 The theme to the Fall Guy film. Regardless of my opinion of Blake Shelton, this is far weaker than the Lee Majors original, the production isnt great and makes me wonder why they didn’t just use the original. See also Footloose.

Yeah. The original feem toon was superb. They've kept the music but basically changed almost all of the lyrics, which makes it kind of shit. OK, they probably needed to update a few of the references from the original, as the audience of today might not know who farah fawcett, Bo Derek etc are / were. But other than that, they've unnecessarily butchered it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 The lyrics were also very much of their time and a little bit chauvinist. So I guess I can see a problem there too. "I never spent much time at school, but I've taught ladies plenty". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
