Just a guess, but would it be the harmonica?

Hi and thanks for the ping!

I'll start out with something short but sweet:Raconteurs-Floating (Jape cover)

[RunningWolf]

Thanks for the Ping dear lady.

[BenLurkin]

And her outstanding performance performing and singing “Der Hölle Rache” from Mozart’s Zauberflöte. This comes close to being perfect — for opera lovers only 8^)

I really don't know if you should highlight or not:

If you click it's only going to get rougher. Don't say you weren't warned!

[andyssister]

Nice. I was looking for "Oh Daddy" with Adrian and his daughter. Couldn't find it.

Completely unrelated: Marianne Faithful-Tears Go By

[BenLurkin]

Nice!

[Caramelgal]

Did you ask about Rickie Lee Jones last week?

This is pretty new.

Rickie Lee Jones "Falling Up"

[andyssister]

Isn't it?

I was looking for Django Reinhardt stuff and found this:Dark Eyes from the Django Festival

It's kind of long, but worth it. These guys are amazing!

[BenLurkin]

Very cool.

With Brian Epstein in 1965 at the start of her career.

What an interesting moment in time!

Makes Old Ben feel quite old.

I found Oh Daddy last night:
It’s from MTV

Good song, cool video. She must have a new album out? I haven’t kept up with her.
