Happy Birthday Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney turns 73 today so I wish him a Happy Birthday. His fame will always be linked to the super group of his youth the Beatles.  He has had an amazing career with Wings and as a solo artist as well.

I am amazed by his collaborations they are hardly predictable.

Here he performs with Rihanna and Kayne West...

"Say, Say, Say"  with Michael Jackson...

The classic "Ebony and Ivory" with Stevie Wonder..

"My Valentine" featuring jazz artist Diana Krall and guitarist Joe Walsh..

Certainly it would be easy to celebrate his birthday with a bunch of solo hits or a collection spanning his career. However, I thought today the collaborations would be a nice way to celebrate.

Thanks for visiting and I will be back soon!

Lineup Bonnaroo 2014: Headliners and such

Bonnaroo is one of the biggest music festivals of the season. This year's lineup is diverse as always. Headlined by Elton John, which might be a surprise. However, Elton John is a big musical name who will appeal to the baby boomer generation. Perhaps the younger generation will discover his music.

Bonnaroo this is your song...

The controversial artist Kanye West is another headliner at this year's festival...

Some might prefer the sounds of Lionel Richie..

Jack White is perhaps the only headliner that actually rocks. Elton John is quite the entertainer and his songbook could fill a festival by itself. Lionel Richie has a catalog of hits and a great voice. Kayne West provides the hype. So Jack White brings the rock..

Vampire Weekend has a band name that could be used for a horror con weekend. Below is their first single..

The Avett Brothers is no stranger to music festivals. Here is a taste..

Phoenix keeps the lineup of alt rock music going..

Skrillex will rock Bonnaroo with their set and return to the stage later with a super jam..


The first eight bands of this year's lineup. I will be back with more posts about the festival lineup.
