    Amazing, amazing stuff. Is this on DVD yet anywhere?

    I don’t know what to say first:
    1)”Van Dyke Parks? How lucky is Ry Cooder to get a sideman like that?”

    or

    2)”Ry Cooder? How lucky is Van Dyke Parks to get a sideman gig like that?”

    I’d give both arms to jam with either of them, even though I’d suck because I had no arms.

  • vthick851

    Is there a better drummer out there that Jim Keltner? Doubtful

  • Gwynne66

    I think he’s just really cool.

  • mctribble

    I would like to hire this band.. does anyone know who the boggly eyed geezer with the strat is.. next to the mexican dude..

  • slownoman

    this band is off da hook! Van Dyke is possibly the most unsung genius in American music. I have the honor of knowing him a little, and having him play (for free!) on some of my demos. An amazing man, and he’s worked with most of the rock and roll hall of fame. And me, from the hall of obscurity!

  • pookisnook

    Yes isnt it, I saw him at Hammersmith in 1982, fantastic gig…!

  • tuesdayjoe

    Isn’t that a ‘HotRod’?…a bunch of sticks bound together..a quiet stick?

  • tuesdayjoe

  • STRATOCASTER1992

    great

  • mctroublepants

    Van Dyke Parks on Piano? How’d he get that gig? lol.

  • llamedica

    Anyone notice JK has a brush-looking stick in his right hand during his solo?

  • hotwadd

    does anyone know if he wears the sunglasses for a vision problem or is it just his style?

  • johnnykougra

    Color me SPEECHLESS here in Chicago…..!

  • teenonator

    Jeezus squeezus. I haven’t seen Ry & Flaco live forever. I’d even pay full price for a copy of this show. Bobby King & Terry Evans were so great together. Keltner’s kicking it, too. WHEW!!
