Album of the Week - 3-11-23
Submitted by joe shikspack on Sat, 03/11/2023 - 3:00pmAfternoon folks!
This week we've got James Cotton doing some classic Chicago blues from his early days followed by an early Taj Mahal album. Following that is some blues-rock with the J. Geils Band recorded live and a studio album from country blues band Mother Earth (featuring Tracy Nelson). Then it's on to some bluegrass with a really great live album from The White Brothers (also known as the Kentucky Colonels) featuring Clarence White - better known for his work with The Byrds. Rounding out the order this week is some prog-rock with Curved Air.
Enjoy!

The efforts by China to rekindle the diplomatic relations of Iran and Saudi Arabia provides hope. I hope the momentum for diplomacy instead of conflict keeps expanding faster than violent acts.

Open Thread - Thurs 09 Mar 2023: How Does Private Equity Work?
Submitted by Sima on Thu, 03/09/2023 - 5:00amVery Briefly: How Does Private Equity Work?
Maybe the title should be 'A Tiny Glance Into Private Equity for Complete Financial Dunces' which would be me! I know nothing about finances really, or about the structures of Wall Street. I read what is posted here and learn a lot, but I still just basically nod along, and will continue to do so! Recently I watched a video which explains how private equity firms operate and wanted to share it here.
