and furthermore....Lady Ga Ga country roads version of Born This Way
It is a daoist goal to recognize the way in other people free and unencumbered by any form of the teaching.and regrding My post of the Lady Ga Ga country roads rendition of Born this way.I can hear the sitar in there ......but thats just me.I hear an Indian Kirtan actually and Oh...... The whole thing rings my Kundallinni bell righteously hard.I can hear some influence from the sitar it seems to me and I love that combo.The harmonica acts like a harmonium.The avett bros pop um off with raga flavor and I find a lot of raga flavor here.Thats been a highly praised combo when I jam with people out west up in the mountains but even amongst the hillbillies jamming out doors we would tune the bottom E to D and have several big jimbe's and a didjeree doo that is tuned to d.Musicians who are successful on stage at the benchmark level of playing as often as the Grateful dead succeeded in filling a hall do so because they take chances.If they were not doing that then they would not be succeeding as they consistently have. People all love righteous music almost,and music brings people together in all sorts of ways.I think Lady Ga Ga is a big improvement on the grateful dead in a lot of ways but of course who would make silly comparisons? Certainly not me.Maybe for some twisted effect.....But I won't explain what I meant by that even though in many ways its true.Interesting similarities though, but I mean that in a sense of cultural gestalt or something Jungian.As a Teenage Dead head in 1978 I was always proud to pay the ticket price and I imagine the same is just as true today.I'm sure some 17 year old is having just as much of a blast at her shows as I did and or would.
