Our make shift band have been playing this song. Awesome tune! On The Beach one of my favourite Neil albums.
First time hearing this...Beauty!

LOVE The Flying Burrito Brothers. This is probably my favorite of theirs. Everly Brothers-style vocal harmony and just a great song, period:

Meteora is 20 years old 
I give that album roughly 33% of the credit for getting me through my junior and senior years of high school.

Happy Birthday to Dennis Bonvie
Yes. He'll walk On the Beach.
Seriously, wish him well. It just never worked in Boston for whatever reason. Good luck to him.

One of my favorite Neil albums. Great stuff, and the cover photo says it all. You can't really see it because the picture resolution isn't much, but the discarded newspaper features a headline about Watergate.

I'll have a listen. Unbelievably, I've never listened to the Burrito boys. Thanks for posting.
As for the Everly's, Phil & Don were... sublime. Probably the greatest harmonies ever, and I am including John & Paul in my assessment,

Regarding the Burritos, it's understandable you haven't listened to them. The "classic" lineup with Gram Parsons was here and gone practically in the blink of an eye. They lasted for two albums and that was it.
Regarding the Everly Brothers, I absolutely agree with you. Both were top-notch singers, and to top that off they had that "brother telepathy" going on that gave them that extra element. John and Paul were heavily influenced by the Everly Brothers, and I guarantee you that they would both agree with us wholeheartedly. A quick little side note: The Everlys' golden era was way before my time. I listen to lots of music at work, and many of my co-workers are older people who can't believe I listen to the Everlys. I just tell 'em that it all boils down to cool parents and good taste!

Now this is an under-rated band. Dang I can't find this song on Spotify!

I was leaving the rink last night and these two kids were playing mini sticks in the lobby at 9:30pm.
I said I wished I had their energy.
One of their grandfathers said “You’re young!”
I certainly don’t feel it.
