Yeah. The beauty is in the simplicity of the performance.

Ginger Baker and Fela Kuti way back when ...
As a sort of background, Fela Ransome-Kuti was a Nigerian musician and political activist. He basically invented Afrobeat music. Ginger Baker met him when he ran away from Europe in early 1970 or so. They met and collaborated this is part of that collaboration.

Yeah. The beauty is in the simplicity of the performance. Here's some more stripped down beautiful music, this time courtesy of Greg Allman. I am in a mood where this kind of music touches me deeply.

Eddie Aikau was an Hawaiian life guard and is rumored to have saved 500 lives. He was also a master surfer. In 1978 he was part of a voluntary crew to follow the ancient sea-route from Hawaii to the Tahitian Islands. Not far from the Hawaiian island Molokai, the double-hulled voyaging canoe developed a leak in one of the hulls and later capsized and the crew thought they were in peril. Eddie's surfboard was on board and he offered to paddle to Molokai to get help. He was never seen again. The crew was later rescued by the Coast Guard. Eddie and his act of bravery became legendary and a book was written called Eddie Would Go. ESPN also did a special about him. And just make the connection, my ex-girl friend's late brother was married to Eddie's widow, Linda. We went to Hawaii and I got to meet Linda and her and Eddie's daughter, Milinda. Here is one of a few songs about Eddie Aikau. I like this one because it's done by a British punk band, The Agitators.

If there is anyone that can deliver this song as well or maybe even better than Billie Holiday it would be Nina Simone.

Time for some Zep from the early days ... There’s a young US band Greta Van Fleet, somewhat compared to Led Zeppelin though there’s some differences (think the guitar has some southern rock influence on the first one The vocalist says he wasn’t going for a Plant-like voice, but it was the only way to get heard over the rest of the band .. The guitarist does say he studied Page intensely for a year. Unlike some others that sounded like Zep, this one has the bands blessing.. Hope they do well and expand their sound, though 3 of 4 are brothers, and haven’t heard of a long lasting band with brothers
