I've had many complaints from the many canine followers of this forum. The two musical dogs featured in that video are of course golden retrievers. I deeply apologise for the grave insult!

Whilst cooking again ...

Damn that's good stuff. Did you ever see his impressions of Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen? Those are almost even better. I had never sen them before.

Then YT guided me to:
Tom Jones with Crosby Stills Nash & Young - Long Time Gone

Lou Barlow solo live is pure gold

He makes it look so simple to play them songs,

Nostalgia-listen so to speak. Used to sing the highest praises of this particular album. Mellowed out a bit since.

But I still enjoy its gothy Darkwave-Dreampop-meld that was so indicative of the 4AD-sound of its time.

i saw a neil young and a springsteen impersonation and i was laughing my ass off, thanks for mentioning them

he sounds just like fucking neil young. crazy. then i found the original version lolololo.

the chris christie traffic jam song gave me goosebumps just like born to run hahahahahaaaa

but that doors song... sounds like a real doors song, and i’ve been hearing BUTTERFLY IIIN THE SSKYYYYY in my head for a day now

i had no idea the little shit had so much talent hahahaha. seriously he’s very good. this is all new to me.

Lou Barlow is my personal favorite. Thanks for sharing the video.

Starting my early morning Christmas Eve with Xiu Xiu......wish this album had at least one extra long track:

Two tracks, each over 30 minutes long......this is more like it:

Seffi Starshine - Hanami

my recurring yearly tradition to play some Ida around Xmas time. Pity that they don't exist anymore
