Here's another MusiCares tribute show. This one celebrates Paul McCartney's music career. It's a bit short as far as these types of concerts go, but what's here is very good. The usual format for these kinds of tribute concerts is a series of stars sing covers by the performer being honored, then there's an acceptance speech, and then the performer plays a couple of songs at the end. That's how this one went as well, except Paul McCartney performed two songs at the beginning as well as three at the end. Actually, he did one more: a cover of "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter" performed as a duet with Diana Krall. However, this is sourced from a DVD, and that wasn't included, so I don't have it here. Also, Katy Perry sang "Hey Jude," and the Foo Fighters sang "Jet," and those aren't here either, for the same reason. If anyone has those missing songs, please let me know and I'll be happy to add them in. Additionally, Cirque du Soleil started the concert with a medley of "Get Back," "Hello Goodbye," and "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." But I edited that out because it was a visual performance done to the record versions. What's here is pretty great though, which isn't shocking considering McCartney was one of the best and possibly the most commercially successful songwriters of all time. Particularly interesting is the finale, a version of the Beatles medley "Golden Slumbers - Carry That Weight - The End" with McCartney, Joe Walsh, and Dave Grohl dueling on guitars. As mentioned above, this has been officially released on DVD. However, there have been no audio releases. The sound quality is excellent. This album is 54 minutes long. 01 talk (emcee) 02 Magical Mystery Tour (Paul McCartney) 03 Junior's Farm (Paul McCartney) 04 talk (emcee) 05 talk (Alicia Keys) 06 Blackbird (Alicia Keys) 07 talk (emcee) 08 No More Lonely Nights (Alison Krauss & Union Station) 09 talk (emcee) 10 And I Love Her (Duane Eddy) 11 talk (emcee) 12 Oh, Darling (Norah Jones) 13 talk (emcee) 14 I Saw Her Standing There (Neil Young) 15 talk (emcee) 16 The Fool on the Hill (Sergio Mendes) 17 We Can Work It Out (Coldplay) 18 Yesterday (James Taylor with Diana Krall) 19 talk (James Taylor) 20 For No One (Diana Krall with James Taylor) 21 talk (emcee) 22 talk (Neil Portnow) 23 talk (Paul McCartney) 24 My Valentine (Paul McCartney, Diana Krall & Joe Walsh) 25 Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five (Paul McCartney) 26 Golden Slumbers - Carry That Weight - The End (Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh & Dave Grohl) 27 talk (Paul McCartney) This album is 54 minutes long. https://pixeldrain.com/u/KaZyTRqs alternate: https://bestfile.io/en/MaVF1LXhP4bCOhQ/file The cover photo is from the finale of this exact concert.

Bootleg of Phish's 1st 2 Dec 1995 set in New Haven, CT, that my friend's dad recorded.

Here's an album from blues musician Taj Mahal, from 1974. It's part of my focus on posting albums from "Ultrasonic" radio show concerts. I'm a fan of Taj Mahal's music. I've posted a couple of sets from him that were part of rock festivals, as well a concert from when he was with the band the Rising Sons in the 1960s, but this is the first time I've posted an entire concert just starring him. I had been meaning to do that for a long time, so I'm glad the Ultrasonic series gave me a good reason. One thing I like about his music is that while he is mainly known as a blues musician, he hasn't been afraid to play songs from other genres sometimes. His Wikipedia entry puts it well: "Mahal has done much to reshape the definition and scope of blues music over the course of his more than 50-year career by fusing it with nontraditional forms, including sounds from the Caribbean, Africa, India, Hawaii, and the South Pacific." For instance, in this concert he played a couple of reggae songs, including "Johnny Too Bad," which was included on the classic "The Harder They Come" movie soundtrack in 1972. At the time of this concert, he was promoting his 1974 studio album "Mo Roots," which had a strong reggae influence on it. Here's his Wikipedia entry: Taj Mahal (musician) - Wikipedia Note that it was usual in this radio series to have an interview in the middle of the concert. I'm less interested in that, so I moved the interview to the end as a mere bonus track. However, I did keep a bit of that section in the concert itself, where he mentioned the names of his backing band. That's why there are two talking tracks in row in the song list, because they're from either end of the interview track. If anyone know the name of the instrumental that makes up track 15 here, please let me know so I can give it a proper title. The music here is unreleased (although I noticed a "grey market" bootleg that looks like a legit release), and the sound quality is excellent. This album is 59 minutes long, not including the interview bonus track. 01 talk (Taj Mahal) 02 Going Up to the Country, Paint My Mailbox Blue (Taj Mahal) 03 talk (Taj Mahal) 04 Good Morning, Little Schoolgirl (Taj Mahal) 05 talk (Taj Mahal) 06 Black Jack Davey (Taj Mahal) 07 talk (Taj Mahal) 08 Why Did You Have to Desert Me (Taj Mahal) 09 talk (Taj Mahal) 10 talk (Taj Mahal) 11 Further On Down the Road (Taj Mahal) 12 talk (Taj Mahal) 13 Stealin' (Taj Mahal) 14 talk (Taj Mahal) 15 Instrumental (Taj Mahal) 16 talk (Taj Mahal) 17 Johnny Too Bad (Taj Mahal) 18 talk (Taj Mahal) 19 Take a Giant Step (Taj Mahal) Interview (Taj Mahal) https://pixeldrain.com/u/CFf3jVPK alternate: https://bestfile.io/en/jTA3YhLH6MHzqrE/file The cover photo is from an appearance on an ABC TV show in 1973.

Here's the fifth album from the 2025 Farm Aid benefit concert. This one stars Lukas Nelson. I've included Sierra Ferrell in a supporting role in the title as well. She wasn't officially named as part of this musical act, but she had a prominent role in five out of the six songs, and that seems pretty significant to me. Note also that the one song without Ferrell is a duet with Dave Matthews. Lukas Nelson is one of the children of country music legend Willie Nelson who has pursued a career in music. He has had success leading the Promise of the Real as the backing band for both Neil Young and Willie Nelson for many years. He also had a prominent role writing and producing songs for the 2018 movie "A Star Is Born." Here's his Wikipedia entry: Lukas Nelson - Wikipedia Here's a music bigger entry about him and the Promise of the Real: Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real - Wikipedia And here's the entry for Sierra Ferrell: Sierra Ferrell - Wikipedia This album is 30 minutes long. 01 talk by emcee (Lukas Nelson) 02 talk (Lukas Nelson) 03 Ain't Done (Lukas Nelson with Dave Matthews) 04 talk (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 05 The Maker (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 06 talk (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 07 Friend in the End (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 08 talk (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 09 [Forget About] Georgia (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 10 talk (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 11 Unknown Legend (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) 12 Find Yourself (Lukas Nelson with Sierra Ferrell) https://pixeldrain.com/u/mXLaVS7m alternate: https://bestfile.io/9qc6H0vYJIJKtFr/file The cover photo of Nelson and Ferrell is from this exact concert.

Here's the sixth album I'm posting from the 2025 Farm Aid benefit concert. This one features Billy Strings. Strings has developed quite a reputation for his guitar playing. He is also an accomplished singer and songwriter. He specializes in bluegrass music, but has also made a name for himself in "jam band" circles. Here's his Wikipedia entry: Billy Strings - Wikipedia This album is 31 minutes long. 01 talk by emcee (Billy Strings) 02 talk (Billy Strings) 03 Dust in a Baggie (Billy Strings) 04 Hellbender (Billy Strings) 05 talk (Billy Strings) 06 Away from the Mire (Billy Strings) 07 New Country Blues (Billy Strings) 08 talk (Billy Strings) 09 Gild the Lily (Billy Strings) 10 talk (Billy Strings) 11 Doin' My Time (Billy Strings) https://pixeldrain.com/u/mXLaVS7m alternate: https://bestfile.io/en/7tPv5HJnG8JKBYk/file The cover photo is from this exact concert.
