Song Review(s): Billy & the Kids with Daniel Donato & Kanika Moore - “Foolish Heart” -> “Scarlet Begonias” (Live, Aug. 16, 2023)
Following the Dead & Company template of giving John Mayer the mic when Oteil Burbridge is on stage, Billy & the Kids ceded “Foolish Heart” to Tom Hamilton while singer Kanika Moore was guesting with the band.
Retaining the original composition’s guitar and keyboard lines and nearly coming apart on the jam as spiraling guitars get looser rather than tighter, this version is messy. Hamilton’s atonal vocals only add to the musical malaise, which ends only when the band locks into a segue based around “Third Stone from the Sun” and the “Scarlet Begonias” reprise. It’s dark, brooding transition that eventually leads to a proper version of the latter with Moore on the mic.
Bright and shiny and full of joy, this “Scarlet” is astonishing. Not only for the way former Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann and his acolytes retain the song’s essence while expanding its sonic palette, but in the contrasting quality between it and “Foolish Heart” on just-released pro-shot video from Maryland on Aug. 16.
Same band.
Different results.

Music and Memories by Julie Arduini
Earlier this month I had the opportunity to see Elton John in his Goodbye Yellow Brick Road farewell tour in Syracuse. This came about suddenly and was a gift, so off I went with my sister, my nephew, and our dear friend we first met when I was in college a few decades (gasp!) ago.
I became quite reflective during the event as video screens highlighted Elton’s career. It seemed many of his songs…
