This is is a interesting interview with Don Felder on the writing of Hotel California and the guitar intro on the 12 string and culminating in the guitar battle in end between he and Walsh.
My Morning Jacket just released a new LP. I'm into that and yearning for a tour. I'll be getting two of the best seats and anyone who wants to join me gets that other ticket.
Love that band. More than I ever did with Led Zeppelin. [Reply]

I looked this song up because I couldn't recall the year. It says 1993 and Eddie Vedder provides backing vocal? Didn't know that.
Dead serious. Listened to both Recipe for Hate and Against the Grain yesterday. Had no idea about Vedder doing backup vocals either. I was remembering how forward thinking their lyrics were from the 90s. Occasionally I'll get the itch for some Bad Religion/Descendents type stuff. [Reply]
I'm at the age where I don't care about admitting what I like. Pearl Jam is my band. You can call me a pussy and all that, but I just dig about everything they do. Their new album this year was very enjoyable to me. Here's my favorite songs from the album. The first song I linked easily makes one of their top songs for me that they've ever done. Not bad for some old dudes.
