Song Review: Eric Clapton with Buddy Guy and Robert Cray - “Key to the Highway” (Live)

Back before Eric Clapton went bonkers and Robert Cray severed ties with ol’ Slowmind, Cray and Buddy Guy joined Clapton on stage in London to perform “Key to the Highway.”

The long-ago recording is out as the latest single from the Definitive 24 Nights, which arrives in audio and video formats June 23.

The guitar playing is, of course, lowdown and intricately intertwined as the three masters uncover the joy in the blues and Clapton reminds listeners his singing is as important as his axe swinging.

Subsequent events make this recording bittersweet, indeed. But inside the Royal Albert Hall some 30 years ago, bitter had not entered the soundscape.

Steve Miller Band - "Key To The Highway" From the album Children Of The Future (June 1968)

Last song scrobbled from iTunes at Last.fm

★★★★★

Miller's version of "Motherless Children" is much slower and much better than the one Clapton does on 461. And this "Key to the Highway" is both better and slower than the one heard on Layla. I think the conclusion to be drawn is clear: no-one--and I do mean no-one--interprets the slow Chicago blues better than Steve Miller.

I’ve read your google docs of the katayanagi twins’ fashion. Super interesting stuff and I love it as both a fashion enthusiast and fan of the siblings. Your document really emphasizes the distinction between those two even with the very little info we have on them (kyle’s style could be late 80s japanese pop while ken’s style could be more leaning towards visual kei). Also matches their personalities (ramona mentioned kyle is the hothead of the two, so I guess the pretty and proper bad boy kind of look fits him)

Something about your endnote fascinates me, however. You mentioned something about the twins’ relationship being strained but then strengthened after ramona’s betrayal. Would you implore more on the idea? I’m now invested in it very much…. thank you and have a good day

Thank you!!! I mostly based my looks off this piece of concept art by O’Malley, which makes me think the personalities the twins had in their few anime appearances were just parts that weren’t as well communicated in Vol. 5

(I think that little doddle next to the crossed out “they’re not even Japanese” emphasizes that visual kei comparison you made)

But as for the second bit, I think the twins weren’t exactly on great terms, even before Ramona. A decent part of this has to do with my own personal head cannons surrounding Kyle and how I perceived his and Ramona’s relationship with alcohol, but also with just how different the twins seem to be under the surface. They seem like they would run in almost completely opposite social circles and be invested in similarly opposite things.

And it’s honestly really tied to their teens. Basically, their parents kinda unintentionally set up a dynamic where Kyle felt like Ken got away with everything (piercings, weird clothes, going out to band shows and having a more trusting relationship with their parents) and Ken thought Kyle couldn’t get his act together (partying, showing up back home late, getting in fight with their parents). Neither was true as in reality their parents let a lot of stuff with Ken slide that wouldn’t have otherwise because “well at least he’s not drunk” and Kyle was genuinely going through some serious mental shit but not telling anyone so his actions just looked super random and mean spirited. So by the time they get to college, they haven’t really addressed this weird image they have of the other in their heads.

And it explains how Ramona was even able to two time siblings. They’re not going to the same parties, they’re not really talking at length about their lives (since they never mention enough detail to make the other suspicious), they’re probably not really bothering each other much if they share a dorm. Ramona unconsciously sees and plays this divide, knowing they’re not really together enough for her to get caught.

It also emphasizes for me a very emotional aspect for all three of them. Ramona is hot off a messy break up (Roxie), the breakup that ended her first relationship with a women and also seems to be her first attempt at having something…maybe not serious but genuine (it seemed more important than anything with Matt Todd or Lucas). Shes hardly in the headspace to be in a relationship, and maybe after some nights out, she’s terrified and not sure what to do because whoops she’s in two! And the longer it goes on the less Ramona actually wants to fix it because it’s kinda fun in a messed up way, and the twins aren’t bad company…until it all comes crashing down and she’s out the door before they even notice she’s gone. I think Ramona’s relationship with the twins is her at her actual lowest, with her being most at fault for what happened and the least justified in bolting afterwards. This low point is exactly when Gideon finds her, unsure and upset at herself, in exactly the position to manipulate her. (Sorry if this came off a little Ramona bash-y, I love Ramona but this girl makes bad choices)

As for the twins, I think the really strong emotional beat here is the idea of how avoidable it would’ve felt for them. How if they had just been able to set aside their own bullshit, if they had even bothered to connect at all, they could’ve figured it out in a few days, rather than in a few weeks or a few months. Ramona’s betrayal is catalyst for them to sit down and just…talk out a lot of their own personal crap.

But yeah that’s why. Sorry this got super massively long, but I hope you liked it and it wasn’t too ramblely lol.

#long post #anon ask #scott pilgrim #ken katayanagi #kyle katayanagi #katayanagi twins #ramona flowers #my head cannons #thank thank thank you for bringing this up I’ve been dieing to talk about it #the twins low key seem like the kinda guys to be super put together on the outside but like five seconds from unraveling on the inside #I love them they are my messy idiots #also this is mostly based on comic lore don’t come in here with that they were her TAs nonsense #they can be players but weirdos? nuh uh. no. #tho I am deeply curious like what was Ramona’s major? engineering maybe since she knows about the sub space highways

Driving home after work was a nightmare until I got off the highway in the city... I think the lake kept the east side warmer so a lot of the snow was just slush. But yeah the rest of the drive was bad bad.

But I kept thinking about this time when I still lived in Colorado... I was visiting my sister down south and had to drive four hours back home cause I had to work. There was an awful snowstorm and I could barely see the highway, and I had this car:

Which. Clearly not made for snow lol. HERE IT IS AFTER A COLORADO SNOWSTORM.

So that little car, and it had bad tires, and the wiper fluid tank was broken so I didn't have clean windows, and I drove it home four hours on shitty unplowed highway roads and made it home ok.

So I was like. Yeah I can do this lol.

#i do miss that car #anyway the key to driving safe in snow is going very very slowly lol #you'll probably be fine if you're slow enough #i mean not a guarantee of course but if you gotta crawl along at 5mph that's what you gotta do #thankfully almost everyone else will also be going 5mph #except this one truck that passed me on the highway that splashed so much shit on my windshield that i literally couldn't see for a moment #fuck that guy

Brandon and Noah often disagree about music, but one song that they both LOVE to listen to on road trips (when it's just the two of them) is "Lose Yourself" by Eminem.

call

It’s 3am here and all I’m thinking about is city lights and how your breath turns soft in 32nd street air

There’s too many liminal spaces; I can’t breathe

but my chest fills with the cracks in the sidewalk, jazz singing in headlight-yellow flashes of memory

the city is alive with a thousand heartbeats—they all sync to yours

It’s 3am here

Farmhouse rain is too soft for this thing under my palms

shaped like the gold of your eyes

You never said what I wanted to

(I heard you anyway)

response

the rain is a whisper in Brooklyn

your hands curve into the shape of a smile—a secret shining silver between fingers

here is a four-letter word for I miss you

tucked into the folds of a diner napkin

I heard your laugh in the crosswalk

Count the stars for me?

Is the Florida Keys Saltwater or Freshwater?

The Florida Keys, a stunning archipelago stretching southwest from the tip of Florida into the Gulf of Mexico, are primarily surrounded by saltwater. This picturesque chain of islands is renowned for its crystal-clear turquoise waters and vibrant marine life, making it a haven for water enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

The saltwater surrounding the Florida Keys is part of the expansive Gulf of Mexico to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The Keys are connected by the Overseas Highway, an iconic road that spans numerous bridges, providing breathtaking views of the ocean. As you drive along this highway, you'll witness the seamless transition from one island to another, all embraced by the saltwater that characterizes the region.

The saltwater environment of the Florida Keys contributes to its diverse and unique ecosystem. Coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangrove forests thrive in these waters, supporting a rich array of marine life. Snorkeling and diving enthusiasts flock to the Keys to explore these underwater wonders, encountering colorful coral formations, tropical fish, and other fascinating creatures that call this saltwater habitat home.

While saltwater dominates the surrounding seas, there are freshwater resources within the Florida Keys. The islands have a few freshwater lakes and ponds, and the underground freshwater lens—freshwater stored in the porous limestone beneath the islands—provides a vital source of drinking water for the local residents. However, the predominant characteristic of the Florida Keys is undoubtedly the salty embrace of the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean.

In conclusion, the Florida Keys are predominantly saltwater, with the surrounding seas playing a pivotal role in shaping the unique and diverse ecosystem that attracts visitors from around the world.
