Tupelo Honey
A post to recognize Van Morrison's recent knighting. I am not sure though if he is now a knight bent on chivalry. Anyway, here is a Morrison and Gregory Porter duet on "Tupelo Honey". This is just audio, but it is a great version of the song.

Be Good (Lion's Song)
I generally prefer live performances to staged videos, but I was looking through some Gregory Porter videos, who I saw Saturday at the Jazz Festival, and found this video which is one of the best I have ever seen. In addition to being so well done, the uncredited star of it is Baltimore. I recognized near the very beginning Penn Station. A lot of it is filmed at the American Visionary Art Museum and on Federal Hill. There are scenes from other places around Baltimore—some I recognize and some I don't. In addition to that it is a really great song. How could you ask for more?
