Some great indie talent showcased here: http://www.youtube.com/user/topladave

If you have a chance to view these...Dave would appreciate any feedback/comments. If you decide to send him a line, please let him know you heard about his work from Pam (from Museum-L).

I watched some of those videos last night, 3 by a girl with the same name as a stepsister, and I have a cousin named Dave that's from the same town that topladave is from. That's some special music there. I will watch more later.

Glad you had a chance to view these Patti! I think it's great that Dave has been able to do this -else we would most likely would never have the opportunity to see/listen to all this wonderful talent.

Dave is a brilliant conservator (among the best in the US+), but has no musical talent himself. The video work is a hobby and he obviously has some skill here and also feels strongly about showcasing the wonderful and talented local musicians.

Neat coincidence re your stepsister and cousin!

Been enjoying some more of those. I highly recommend 'Hands'.
I will probably watch all of the videos. Just gotta.

She's good! Bluesy-jazz reminiscent of Billie Holiday.

But my favorite thus far is the rendition of "Ain't Misbehavin'". Also, I like the "Over the Rainbow" instrumental...though Nilsson's (w/vocals) from the movie "You've Got Mail" will forever be my #1 favorite rendition of the song.

I finally sent him a note and he is glad to hear that you are out there playing music, Pam! He wrote back right away.

Hey Ladies,
I will go watch when my computer stops acting stupid. :)
For some reason, it is taking forever to watch something on YouTube.

I love new music and all the different artists on YouTube are so wonderful to watch.
It really brings a whole new slant to music to see so many different styles and versions of the old classics too.
Thanks for the link. I will check it out as soon as I can.

And I also have to get back to check out more of his vids...I haven't in awhile. It's so great that he's been doing this and glad to know about songsalive.org :)!
