Jamming 101.

Do it from the heart.

Susan Tedeschi sings on this strong Joe Cocker ballad. Her husband Derek Trucks playing a mean guitar a la slide. Last but most certainly not least Herbie Hancock on piano. The rest of the ensemble I cant name, but they're all giving just as much energy as they can muster. The breakdown in the middle includes Herbie Hancock v. Derek Trucks trading solos.

The best music comes from the atmosphere which surrounds it. If that doesn't make any sense yet, by the time you're halfway through this video you'll know what I mean.

Cuban Cars

When the US Embargo began cutting america off to Cuba, it didn't just mean the Cubans were losing our money from tourism and trade, but also that the flow of ideas was cut off. One of the biggest exports of America is swagger. Here, that comes in the form of cars. These are pictures taken in Havana and Matanzas.
