    John Doe is a deity. For as many cigarettes as John smoked (don't think he does anymore), his voice is remarkably intact. The singing on last year's X album was gorgeous.

    A band of heavy hitters showing exactly what they are capable of. Tremendous take of a wonderful song. Love Sheila E's look of joy at the 5:09 mark. She really is the low-key hero on this song amongst titans.

    Great song and cast of musicians! Look at Lloyd Maines kick ass on that steel guitar. He’s such a down to earth guy. Sheila E, Alejandro’s niece, was a great addition to the group. I remember seeing her at the Paramount Theatre for the Por Vida concert in ‘05. She played the drum so fast her hands literally blurred. Those two nights of Por Vida are in my top ten best concerts ever!

      @scottmccullo Amen! The first time I saw him play was at the old Saengerhalle, outside New Braunfels. He was playing solo that night more than 20 years ago. I’ve seen him many more times since… He’s priceless

    Although commonly associated with his adopted hometown of L.A., John Doe was originally a Baltimoron -- same for Talking Heads' frontman, David Byrne.
    Another notable musician original to Maryland who later relocated elsewhere (although I'm not sure he was a fellow Baltimorean) was Frank Zappa
