Outstanding examples of Musicianship


All this negativity towards Amy Winehouse got me thinking that there must be a better way to show how we all worship music and musicians.

This thread is for everyone to show their own favorite examples of absolutely superlative musicianship. Find your best youtube example of your hero musician playing an instrument like nobody else can. I am looking for some of the most exceptional examples on the planet - any genre.

Here is an example

Shadorne - thx for stirring up an old memory. J. Geils 2nd billing to Edgar Winter's White Trash at the Rockpile (a greasy whse-turned-music hall where I caught so many great acts!). Peter Wolf yelling out "Mr. Magic Dick on the lickin' stick, whammajamma, let me hear ya Dickie!!!", and off we went! Great, great times.

BTW, if you dig Magic Dick you owe it to yrself to check out Kim Wilson (frontman for the Fabulous Thunderbirds). Most folks know him from that gig and don't realize he's one of the greatest harp players ever! I own 5 of his records, I'd strongly recommend 'Tigerman'. The dude cand definitely lick a stick!;)
