Dani California (rhcp) 'Gettin' born in the state of Mississippi Poppa was a copper and momma was a hippie In Alabama she would swing a hammer Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama She never knew that there was anything more than poor What in the world does your company take me for? Black bandana, sweet Louisiana Robbin' on a bank in the state of Indiana She's a runner, rebel and a stunner On her merry way sayin', "Baby, what you gonna—?" Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal .45 Just another way to survive [Chorus] California, rest in peace Simultaneous release California, show your teeth She's my priestess I'm your priest, yeah, yeah [Verse 3] She's a lover, baby and a fighter Shoulda seen her comin' when it got a little brighter With a name like Dani California Day was gonna come when I was gonna warn ya A little loaded she was stealin' another breath I love my baby to death [Chorus] California, rest in peace Simultaneous release California, show your teeth She's my priestess I'm your priest, yeah, yeah [Bridge] Who knew the other side of you? Who knew what others died to prove? Too true to say goodbye to you Too true, too sad sad sad [Verse 4] Push the fader, gifted animator One for the now and eleven for the later Never made it up to Minnesota North Dakota man was a gunnin' for the quota Down in the Badlands she was savin' the best for last It only hurts when I laugh Gone too fast California, rest in peace Simultaneous release California, show your teeth She's my priestess I'm your priest, yeah, yeah California, rest in peace Simultaneous release California, show your teeth She's my priestess I'm your priest, yeah, yeah Anthony's lyrics (in addition to great, lead, great bass, groovy drum lol), a reason the song's got over 125 M views on youtube imhv ...

i think we would be remiss on this thread if we didn't mention an indie artist in our midst who has made a point of including a featured guitar solo on virtually all of their songs. Same person even did a whole musical project centered around this collection of solos, which was innovative.

That's a diverse group of videos, Todd. Seem to remember a couple of them from cbgbs in the 70s... Gotta run...

You ever been to a P-Funk show? It's like a religious revival meets sci-fi epic. I think everyone needs to revere George Clinton as the creator of P-Funk!

Yes, George Clinton took a lot of artists under his wing and made them better. He even took the horn players from the James Brown Band and gave them a whole new genre to play. When I think of creative genius and mentorship, George comes up high on my lust. The man had 50 people on stage and they all worshipped him as the creator of P Funk. That is quite a distinction!

I'm assuming that you misspoke and DO know the Clapton and Steely Dan solos. That said:

Stoneman, you prob'ly know George Clinton, from Parliament Funkadelic, took rhcp Anthony Keidas under his wing early on, and helped him gain confidence as a lead singer, according to Anthony, anyway, who's a huge fan of George C. Strange like two stream crossing, sometimes the happenin' best music happens that way. Kinda like Jimi Hendrix doin' a Dylan song, and later :The Wind Cries Mary" with a Dylan atmosphere. (great song) Maybe you'll consider posting the George benson video, or one of your favs here. Hop on Pop I confess the only one n your list I'm familiar w is the Cars song lol...pretty eclectic. Here's a video about the making of the video above lol...
