    Good Mornin'
    Beckxy says (19 Mar '13)

    I received my four bundle pack of Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real CDs yesterday in the mail and I immediately opened the "Live Endings" cd. The ones that I am hooked on are "Can you hear me love you","Joint", and "Wasted".

    This is good shit... tho I'm feeling like.. this is one of those artists that you need to go see live to get a sense of what they do. The bass player has this eccentric long solo in one of the songs that goes from one style to another. Lukas's guitar playing ability is superb and his voice... chilling because the voice is oh so familiar yet blood pumping with vibrancy. Total jam band.. you could place these guys at the original 1969 Woodstock and they would fit right in. Very appreciative that Mr. Rock brought these cats on the boat.

I too am enjoying Lukas! We rocked in the yard all day yesterday to his cd's. Rhett got the whole garden tilled. I love how down to Earth he is. As Becky mentioned, so many get too shined up. The glow is gone. Having grown up on country, way before it was cool (can't tell ya how many fights I got in for wearing boots to the school of yuppies) I adore how much he reminds me of his dad, but more fresh and enlightened. I especially love his writings on the inside of the cd labeled, "To Be Real." I was amazed by his brother's art work throughout. That family appears to ooooze talent. I'm so thankful we get to share in it. BIG shout out to BOB for not disappointing us, again! Love ALL you!...kc

I agree. Some of the best fresh talent we could have had. Love it.

So Becks, did u get 4 different cd's of Lukas', I did not do search beforehand...? Would u recommend I get 'Live Endings'? And let me know which other ones I should get. I got Shooter's cd 'Bad Magick', and in all honesty, the guy and his band sound so much better live than on the cd.

Hi Val, yea, it's four different ones.. on his website he had them for sale individually and then in a bundle. I haven't gotten a chance to open the other three yet, but just the live one. The live one is good.. he brings his sister out for a song or two.. pretty voice. There's other instruments on it.. so to me it's not as raw and I love raw.... like he has another percussionist playing bongos, chimes, and other magical things.. and there's an organist.. sounds like one of those B3 that ya hear Jimmie play. I could see him doing well at peace festivals, the college circuit.. I think that the songs I mentioned above and 'Forever is a four letter word' are some of his best ones. As for Shooter, I love his older stuff. I'm partial to when he had Leroy Powell in the band as his guitarist.. but Leroy Powell is doing his own thing now with a band.. and they are very good too. Kinda funny how I find all my new music thru Kid Rock... love it :) But a good while ago, Kid Rock did a holiday special.. not sure if it was the Christmas one or a Thanksgiving one.. my mind's drawing a blank.. but he had Shooter on his show and Leann Rimes... I almost wanna say it was the one where they did the turkey.. but I have a feeling I'm wrong. Anyway.. that's the first time we heard of Shooter... and after that we bought his 4th of July album.. up to his live Electric Rodeo album.. and went to a few of his shows around the area at small clubs and bars. The shit was off the chain... it was the first time I hung out the whole entire night at the bar aside of the stage and had a blast with the ppl around watching his show... Shooter and Powell brought the stank of stale liquor on evr'body's clothes that night ;) So seeing him on the boat was hard to top that moment for me, but seeing him walk around 'by himself', doing a lil side step drunken shuffle and mingling with us other participants was pricless. I like raw Shooter.. I think his band,is too shined up. my honest opinion

Hi you two :) I think I have finally gotten back into the swing of things... this trip has to be one of the hardest to come down off of.... had such a good time:) So very happy I got to see you.

Same here Becky - you really are "good people". Just ready to have a good time, party and enjoy the music! Shirlee was the same, I'm telling you she about had me laughing so hard my side would be hurting so bad, more times than can count. You guys have been a blessing to know and are just good times in being around, no stress, drama, just smiles, dancin', laughin', easy on mind and left w/ great memories. :)))

Hey Bobbie we had extra pantie liners we could have hooked you up. Same here we laughed to hard last year we learned our lesson. I know too much information.

hugh?

ps - thanks to you both for your friendship over the years and now some shared memories as well. ;)

talented for sure! All the entertainment on the boat, was just man, blew me away like the best of the best. Kid Rock sure has an eye for talent, think line up would be hard to beat for sure!
