Flo and Eddie Bongos in the Black!! Mothers of invention- great hommage. When I was a young lad in the '80s I loved playing the Blasters in the band. We did Marie Marie, American Music, and Border Radio. What a talented piece of America these brothers are!!!
those 80s Blasters albums are great and i absolutely LOVE the self titled album, it is one of my all time favorite albums. Marie Marie and Border Radio to me are two of the greatest roots rock songs of all time. and all those other tracks are spectacular as well.
I like how the person behind the camera turned around and did a pan of the crowd, the venue, the setting. That's an equally important element in live music. I wish more people who take videos at shows would do this.
Wow what a guitar player, he can play all day. Still fire the soundman, can't hear the singer. Even with a direct blast (no pun intended) from that Fender Amp. Got to hear the singer or it isn't a song.
Wail Dave, You're a great guitarist, but a little too experienced to be posturing like that. Keep playing! What's up with your brother and the poor vocals. No sound check?
Congratulations....You lose the internet today... Shakin Stevens is a clown impostor from Wales of all places... One the plus side since Dave wrote the song apparently he made a whole lot of money in royalties from the clown... Dave and Phil are the real deal...
Marie Marie - a classic. Dave Alvin - What a guitar player!
the great Lisa Pankratz on drums. Solid as a rock!
roughtake YEA!!!!!!!

I like how Phil is digging through his pockets, maybe looking for that ticket to ride in a long white Cadillac?!?
Tight. Tight as a drum.
Shes awesome !
She is tight!

American Legends.
Lisa Pankratz !
They do a nice rendition of Break on Through by The Doors between the two songs.
Dave is noodling around during that and plays "Dog Breath" by Frank Zappa
God damn f’ing yeah! We are sooooooooo much cooler then anyone today! Been telling the kids that for years. Enlighten the masses!
Most unusual style of guitar playing I have seen..
Dave Quoted Zappa!
Wow
Ok everybody, lets all play at different tempos.
Jeff Ho dancing in the background
Wow what a guitar player, he can play all day. Still fire the soundman, can't hear the singer. Even with a direct blast (no pun intended) from that Fender Amp. Got to hear the singer or it isn't a song.
Damn bro
great songs, too bad the vocals were mixed so low....
Phil looks a lot like the old Clint Eastwood
Somebody turn Phil up a bit.

The awful slide guitarist totally messed it up!

Browse to the Blasters (Dave and Phil) video of their version at Farm Aid and I think you will change your mind. Ken Dolman (sorry to post as a guest)
All that AND the HOTTEST drummer on the planet.
