That would be:
1) Roger Hodgeson
and
2) Bob "The Bear" Hite
in a way, i see it as the bands anthem. Them sort of saying that thats what they hope to achieve through their music, because that's the thing they most aboslutely love about music. Not the words that he says or the band...something beyond musical examination and just purely emotional, and that's how MMJ strikes me. Moreso than any other band.
Kind of like "Whiplash"for Metallica or Bad Company's "Bad Company", but waaaaay better.

Haha thanks a lot.
I knew the other guy was "Blind Owl". Ain't that cool.
Bring the boogie!
Does anybody get the outdoor concert feeling when they hear the intro of this song? I have got that feeling ever since I heard it.

yeah me too--but from watching the 2003 Bonnaroo dvd
So is it definitely about Al Green? Isn't that how it was introduced in Nashville last year?
I missed Al Green last night. He was playing at the same time as the Black Crowes. Had to go with the Crowes.

What?! No, I totally made that up. It was the first thing that popped in my head.
I think he talked about Al Green at Nashville, but not that specifically...
I'm repeating an earlier post by me in another thread somewhere on this forum, but I believe this is an open statement by Jim left for you to fill in the blank based on what you're digging at the time. Its like one day I'm jonseing to hear David Gilmour's whispery smooth voice and the next thing I'm spinning is Pavarotti. Get my drift?...
Call me crazy, but I always thought that this song was about Jim. I guess it could be a tribute to someone else or an open-ended thing but it fits so well with Jim's music, I always assumed he wrote it about himself.
i think it's about all the music jim loves. it's about the way a song moves you or makes you feel rather than a certain look or feel to the band, or on a larger scale, the music industry and its obsession with the way things look. longest sentence ever. [smiley=beehive.gif]
Quotelongest sentence ever. [smiley=beehive.gif]
Perhaps so, however, probably highly accurate. [smiley=beatnik.gif]

thank you, thank you very much! [smiley=elvis.gif]
Perhaps so, dear buddy whom we occasionally refer to as 'whothrewthecake', though your real name would probably be something else, considering that whothrewthecake is also a line from the song 'How do you know?' of the band that most, if not all, of us on this forum that we tend to visit wich is a part of this website, like, or even love, called My Morning Jacket, wich could be a clue that it is not your real name, for it would be a rather strange coincidence that someone with a certain name, that he or she has had since the day of his birth, for that is usually the day people achieve their names, would later on in his life become a fan, or an admirer, or just a casual but appreciative, if that's a word, listener of a band that has a song in their catalogue wich has a line wich is exactly the same as the name of that person, especially considering that that line does not refer to a name, for the words that comprise the name of this person are not used as any sort of name in the line of the song, but it looks as if you have been a little too hasty concluding that your sentence, wich is, if I'm correct 'it's about the way a song moves you or makes you feel rather than a certain look or feel to the band, or on a larger scale, the music industry and its obsession with the way things look' is the longest sentence ever, for as I have hopefully stated here with some clarity, wich was at least my purpose when I started writing this reply on your post, that it is, if not easy, then at least not all that hard, to write a sentence that is considerably longer than yours, though perhaps of less value and containg less elements that actually mean anything or that anyone would care to read, but nevertheless longer, and since I am but a casual amateur writer, whose mother tongue is also not English, but, on the contrary, Dutch, one would think that other, more advanced writers with a better knowledge of the English language, have written even longer sentences, though at the moment I must admit, for I have always been known to tell the truth, the truth, and yes, nothing but the truth, the groundstone of democracy, might I say, aside from freedom, ofcourse, and what not, that I do not have any proof or examples of that, but a common sense of logic and probability would cause us to think such, doesn't it?
Yes, O. That would be true, I would think, too.
Well. I guess whothrewthecake will have to hand over the belt.
(The beehive lady is still all yours. ;))
i give in to you, O. you are the master of sentences. [smiley=guitar.gif]
i also feel like this smiley thing could get out of control. [smiley=beehive.gif] [smiley=beehive.gif] [smiley=beehive.gif]
O is the one that is real!!!

Killer sentencing on your part buddy, your sentence had me on the edge of my seat for at least 1.5 min. Waiting for that fucking period. I couldn't hold back my laughter which started as silent but grew slowly to a climax of feel good gafawing. Hats and toupe's off to you my friend. :D ;) ::) No Control.
