    Nez Austin City Limits show is awesome....John's playing is fantastic on that show too!

  • @anfrankogezamartincic1161

    You are right, MICHAEL NESMITH is a great artist, i have few of his albums,he goes from country rock to electronic sounds, very ecclectic

    "Roger played a line that was a Bryd's line, David started playing underneath" ... then the magic happened after the bass came in. Thanks for recording these great stories. Joe, I have no idea how you were so far ahead of the CZcams curve, but you were.

    It's great to hear both of your positive comments about the Monkees' records. I strongly agree. My favorite work by Louie Shelton and Gerry McGee is their teaming on the first Monkees album. I feel fortunate to have seen the Desert Rose Band reunited at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass -- they were so good that day. And for so many years, now, I've enjoyed John Jorgensen's playing with Michael Nesmith on the Live at the Britt Festival album. Some of those versions are my favorites in the Nesmith catalog. Thanks for posting this bonus clip.

    I remember playing The Desert Rose Band's songs on KCKN, Kickin' Country, a true 50,000 watt AM station in Roswell, New Mexico when I worked there from '88 to '92. Some great songs in that era.

      @@jeffclark7888 Welp, probably wise not to touch that one - but ... I will. It's all personal preference anyway, isn't it? I'm a Boomer whose Dad was a WWII vet from the east coast. First music I heard was Glenn Miller, Count Basie, Nat Cole, Ahmad Jamal while growing up with friends listening to the Beatles, Cream, Zeppelin, WHILE being in the Southwest where other friends were listening to Haggard, Wynette, Twittty, WHILE I myself listened to a weird mish-mash of everything - except country. Didn't like it. Fate loves making you change. Years later, had a friend at my house and he noticed my guitar. Invited me over to play with his friends. First song was "Sing Me Back Home" and other Haggard songs and similar music. Needless to say, I didn't know those songs but could follow easy enough. Then I began to like, enjoy, and respect "old country." A few more years later and I was spinning records (and those new things at the station at that time - CD's) on KCKN radio. We played a mix of old and current, at that time. I liked most of it. As I moved on to other non-music related jobs, and eventually retired, I have reverted to my original tastes - a mish-mash of classic rock, classic pop, blues, jazz standards, a little classical now and then, throw in an Uptown Funk or Boyz II Men, and a little "old country" here and there. I hear modern country on the radio in the car with friends or relatives, and confess it mostly doesn't appeal to me (with a rare exception) but they like it. Hey, whatever works for ya, right?

      I also caught John Jorgenson with Michael Nesmith's "Tropical Campfires" tour, and John's playing on that album is just wonderful, sublime. If you haven't heard Nez's album (and many of his solo works), do check it out! John is right, Nez is a real poet-artist, his lyrics are great.
