Title: What are you listening to right now?
Post by: guitarhead on January 30, 2008, 02:30:07 PM
This is the thread where you say what you listen to at the moment, and if you don't listen to anything, just say the title of the last song you heard. It's a great way to discover new bands and explore different genres.
I'll start off:

Joe Satriani - Always With Me, Always With You

Will just move this thread to the Music General.

Be Bop Deluxe - Axe Victim

I bought this album 30 years ago. At the time, I thought it was okay but I wasn't really hooked on it. So I only listened to it a few times then filed it away. I've listened to it a few times since but I still wasn't hooked. But recently, I started listening to it again and now I love it! Every track on it is great.

I've found that these kinds of albums are often the best -- the ones that take a while to grow on you. If I'm really impressed with an album on first listen, chances are that I'll be sick of it in a few weeks. But albums like Axe Victim that take a while to grow on me seem to be the classics in my collection that I never get tired of listening to.

Title: Re: What are you listening to right now?
Post by: Pedro on March 03, 2008, 03:56:57 PM
Great stuff you guys listen, Be Bop Delux is a great find, reminds me Deep Purple. I agree with you, most of my prefered albums were failed first hearings. Perhaps for me the best example is Carlos Paredes, I started to listen to him when I was a kid mainly because my father listened to him but then it grew immensely on me and I was forced to get everything from him. Today I've probably listened close to everything that the man recorded while alive.

Right now I'm listening to Beethoven - Waldstein (Piano Sonata no. 21)
Title: Re: What are you listening to right now?
Post by: Oldrottenhead on March 03, 2008, 04:29:10 PM
i met bill nelson of be bop deluxe in im sure it was the early 80's but might have been the tail end of the seventies when he was doing the rounds with his band red noise (the album sound on sound was so ahead of its time and still sounds fresh today), great guitarist ,great person, and vastly underated musician,songwriter, composer etc but the best thing about him is he is continually experimenting.
he hates touring an album coz he wants to do new stuff and move on, so it makes it a bit hard for his fans and record companies lol.
but i'd rather see an artist perform for love/fun whatever than them going through the motions.

What a fantastic disc.

I was just listening to Jack Pearson on the Gibson home page (link below), absolutely one of my favorite guitarists (formerly of the Allman Brothers when Warren Haynes left the band to start Gov't Mule).
http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/Video/Jack%20Pearson%20Performance%20A%20(3)/

There are additional videos with Derek Trucks, Warren Haynes, Duane Eddy, as well as Johnny A.
http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/Video/Johnny%20A_%20Open%20Forum/

The Johnny A video is predominantly guitar chatting while the Jack Pearson videos have jaw-dropping playing from jazz to blues slide.

Peace.

Quote from: oldrottenhead on November 16, 2008, 05:44:01 AMthe new todd rundgren album called arena. bin a fan of todd since i was kneehigh to a grasshopper, is probably his fault i started writing songs. he has justed turned sixty and still has the vitality of a 16 year old. his new cd is just him and his guitar and protools, still a wizard a true star, but also a great guitarist highly under rated imho. heres one off the new cd.


This is a great track. Starts off a bit like 'Don't Fear the Reaper', then decides to go as mad as the title. He's an awesome songwriter, and you're right - he's REALLY underrated as a guitarist. One of the guitar mags (might have been 'Guitarist') recently ran a feature about his discovery of protools and how underrated his playing is. He's been playing in a new line up of The Cars I believe.

I've only got some of the old stuff, but this was a good taster for the new album.

Abba's Bjorn and Benny are just magnificent, meticulous songwriters. Songs like 'The Name of the Game' are right up there with The Beatles and Bacharach, IMO. I like the way they flew totally in the face of fashion / style, and got away with it because the songs were so good.

Yet another Moogis Allman Brothers video stream for me tonight.  After a strong first set, Clapton came out, and they did "Key to the Highway," "Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad?" "Little Wing," "Dreams," and "Layla."  It was very tight and pretty spiffy.

Just got through listening to a couple live shows of the Jimmy Herring Band.  They cover the Dixie Dregs, The Mahavishnu Orchestra, Frank Zappa, and Jeff Beck, as well as do the majority of his solo album.  That band is just ridiculous (Greg Osby, Scott Kinsey, Jeff Sipe, and Oteil Burbridge).  Here's a link to one of their shows on a legal torrent site if anybody is interested:

And thank you Launched and Ferryman for your kind words.  And if you weren't referring to me, I'll just crawl in a hole now.  And Ted, Jaco is beyond comparison...absolutely one of my favorite musicians.

Don't crawl in that hole just yet, Bloob - The reference was no doubt for you. Good style and great playing!

This is kind of a strange coincidence, but I was messing with one of your tunes earlier - some vox, just a couple of lines and some bop bop - it got some friends bouncing up and down, too! Your guitar and prog work kick a**! Guess I'll have to post it now..... Hope you don't get mad   :o

Just did a 3-hour drive with the wife and 3-year-old, and listened to Stevie Wonder's Innervisions numerous times.  Just an amazing album.  "Genius" is not a word to be used lightly, but it certainly applies to Stevie.

Also listened to Sinatra's Come Dance with Me, and a playlist of "Summer Songs" my wife and I compiled, including "A Message to You, Rudy" (The Specials), "Leave the Biker" (Fountains of Wayne), "Arabesque No. 1" (Claude Debussy), "Every Night" (Paul McCartney), "Bizarre Love Triangle" (New Order), and about 100 other songs.

Listening to them again, in particular, the albums Lick, Shame About Ray, and Come On Feel... on Pandora has also brought along memories of Dinosaur Jr, Husker Du, The Replacements and so many other post punk/indie/alternative stuff...

What happened to all this awesome music?! After listening to this classic alternative stuff, I realized how much of a musical zombie i've been for the last few years. WOW...

Peter Holesapple and Chris Stamey's new CD: Here and Now
http://www.amazon.com/Here-Now-Peter-Holsapple/dp/B00274SILA

Chris and Peter were the core of early 80's power-pop band, The dBs.
Although from North Carolina, I understand that the dB's achieved some level of notoriety in the UK while remaining not as well known in the USA.  This is particularly interesting to me because Chris and Peter were from my hometown of Winston-Salem and we played together in a band for the summer after high school. (1971)

This album is reminiscent of and almost seems like a Part II to 'Maveriks', a now classic 'underground' album that the duo wrote and performed around a decade ago. The songs sound fresh and original but also synthesize and draw upon their broad musical backgrounds with innovative guitar work and appealing harmonies.  You can hear samples at the Amazon link.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tXShNtyvRs

All last summer in case you don't recall
I was yours and you were mine forget it all
Is there a line that I could write
Sad enough to make you cry
All the lines you wrote to me were lies
The months roll past the love that you struck dead
Did you love me only in my head?
Things you said and did to me
Seemed to come so easily
The love I thought I'd won you give for free
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
Rumors follow everywhere you go
Like when you left and I was last to know
You're famous now and there's no doubt
In all the places you hang out
They know your name and know what you're about
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
Street lights blink on through the car window
I get the time too often on AM radio
You know it's all I think about
I write your name drive past your house
Your boyfriend's over I watch your light go out
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you

I used to live around the corner from where the Gin Blossoms practiced, in Tempe, AZ.  It was also right near Mrs. Rita's palm reading.

One day I found myself at a friend's house, the sole audience member at a heated debate between the late Doug Hopkins (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Hopkins) (composer of Found Out About You), my friend Dan, and Dan's roommate Anthony.

The topic being debated:
Which is the Greatest Rock Band of All Time?

There were only three bands in contention that afternoon: The Kinks (defended by Anthony), The Rolling Stones (represented by Dan), and The Who--championed by Hopkins.

I thought it was a ridiculous argument.  Obvously, King Crimson is the greatest band of all time--or so I would have contended at the time, if I hadn't decided to just keep my little Prog mouth shut.

I didnt know he was the primary song writer of the Gin Blossoms.  I do know I love his songs.  That wiki link was fascinating as well.  Its a well established phenominon that success does not mean happiness.


BTW-Have you heard of the band Symphonic Slam?  I met Timo last week, we traded guitar pedals and I got a demo of his playing and he even schooled me on the development of the synth guitar.  He had gold records hanging on his wall, as well as pics with many 70's rock stars.  We probably spent 2 hours talking gear, and songwriting.  He also gave me a CD.

Oh... here comes 'Hotel California' on our digital jukebox. Then 'Islands in the Stream'. I'm such a rocker, lol.

It takes a confident man to admit such things.

Last night, here in Flagstaff, AZ, by chance I met the owner of what used to be my favorite local video store when I lived 2200 miles away in Washington, DC.

(This is related to the topic. Trust me.)

I told him this true story:

A few years ago I went into Video Americain (http://www.videoamericain.com/findstore/) looking for The Music Man.  And the store actually had it--on VHS. While I was there, the two store clerks were watching some amazing Hendrix video on the in-store TV.

I sheepishly brought my wimpy musical to the register, and prepared myself for sneering film-snob wrath (http://www.theonion.com/content/node/39161).  I told the clerk, "I feel pretty uncool renting this while you are rocking out to Hendrix."

The clerk immediately consoled, "The Beatles did a song from this film, and Hendrix did a Beatles song, so you're still cool."

I left the store with my dignity intact.

Lemonheads was my favourite in 90's with their albums 'It's a Shame About Ray' and C'mon Feel the Lemonheads', but this year I found them again. The newest of them 'Varshons' is on the list next. It includes some cover versions. Almost always Dando has been succesful by his cover versions.

That was good stuff. The steel guitar guy was great. I think Ricky also did well in his own right.

Now the funny part:

It wasn't long ago that I figured out Ricky Skaggs was not related to Boz Scaggs. This realization fortifies the fact that I am a goober.

"Lido........ Whoa-ho-ooo-oh-oh-oh..." I first learned about Boz when I heard  "Loan me a dime". After I heard "Lido Shuffle" I didn't know what to do..

Interesting you should bring up Al Stewart.  You don't hear about him much anymore, but I've been thinking that Saijinn Maas' "SONG CHALLENGE #1!!!" (https://songcrafters.org/community/post-your-mp3-collaborations-only/song-challenge!!!/0/) would lend itself to a very Al Stewart-ish song. (But don't be expecting me to bring it to life.)

[Looking up Al Stewart on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Stewart)...]

He'll be 64 a week from today.  And it looks like he's put out an album about every two years on average since 1967.  I suppose relative obscurity isn't treating him too badly.

What a voice!

That David Gilmour song is new to me.  I just spent 10 minutes to confirm that was Pino Palladino on bass.

Years before I knew his name, I think Pino planted the seed in my mind that I wanted to have a fretless bass someday.  Jaco Pastorius and Percy Jones were names I knew, but Pino's understated playing on Pete Townshend's album "White City: A Novel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_City:_A_Novel)" made me think, "I want to do that."  (I still can't.)

It's a fantastic album.  David Gilmour plays on White City Fighting.

I laughed.  I'm actually watching a DVD, but here's a taste.  This is actually pretty tame.  He's into some Ornette Coleman/Sonny Sharrock free jazz.  The top neck is fretless and he gets way out there.  The band is funk meets Zappa meets free jazz.  I don't know what to make of them.

To me, these guys are the masters of tone for this genre. In the studio version, there are times the guitar sounds like a harmonica through a distorted mic.

Just picked up both Andy Timmons live DVDs.  He's got the most glorious tones for an instrumental rock guy.  I love the fact he doesn't scoop his mids.

As for Storyville, David Grissom is the man.  Talk about tone for days.  I thought that band was really underrated.  They just came out with a live cd/dvd set as well.  Good stuff.

As for me, I am currently listening to The Police, which is odd for me.  I never really got into them aside from Stewart Copeland's drumming.

I agree, you have to make a "buck" when you can, and Buckethead deserves loads of cash for his talent. Axl Rose is such a shitstick, though... He fired the Eagles of Death Metal from his tour once... I just don't like that guy.

I recorded this on cassette from the radio maybe in 1993 and it took a long time when I found out what is the name of this band! The bass is played by Penn Jillette (Penn & Teller-show). They made an album 'Never mind the Sex Pistols, here's Bongos Bass and Bob' (1988).

This isn't any mainstream stuff,-).

Now that is a video ORH, I get the shivers from that one.  Its freaking live!!!!  What a band, bunch of British school kids come up with stuff like this, stands the test of time very well.  One of my favorite Genesis songs, I love that hammond organ thrashing away, very signature Genesis sound, 12 string guitars and Hammond organ.  And just look at Peter.

Makes me want to push the bag of chips away and find something to do.... Not!!!!!

I had an old scrapper for a boss when I was a kid. He used to piss us all off by saying stuff like "You done a good job kid - Didn't do much, but what you done 'twas a good job!"

Tom Waits dreams of being that cool.

I went looking for this album, and its on Amazon.com $40.95 US -- used! (http://www.amazon.com/Save-Bones-Danny-Barker/dp/B00000AFUR)

This reminds me of how I discovered Robert Belfour.


He's like Ali Farka Touré and Ry Cooder in one.

I heard him on a public radio station.  I had to pull the car over, call directory assistance, call the station, talk to the DJ, find a scrap of paper and a pen in the car, and then make sure I didn't lose it.

I think your version is better! Much more enjoyable. REM could learn a lesson from what you have recorded. Really.

Let me explain:

There are two R.E.M. phases. Pre Document and Post Document

I am Pre Document all the way. Totally lost my love for the band after that. Don't get me wrong, I own the later albums and enjoy some of the songs, but I feel they sold out and went too commercial. The B52's did the same thing, but that's another story...

If you want real R.E.M. pick up Murmur, Reckoning or Fables of the Reconstruction


Fables of the Reconstruction would be my first recommendation. Listing two of my favorites here, but I love the whole album:

Sound quality was poor back in those days  :)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ie24XntTx-Q

And this one


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNqcweqJEBA


Time to dig out the old albums now!!!


So give yourself a hand for making a better cover than an original song!

Check out this gem.

Post by: launched on September 17, 2009, 01:51:49 PM
I started to hunt the video down, but then I came to my senses:

First of all, it's a little late to be getting after Rammstein - They've been around for at least 14 years and going downhill ever since. Maybe popular in Europe still, but that German Erotica/Nastystuff/Torture/Whatever didn't really do much for me or anyone I know.

I bought an album 12 years ago (Sehnsucht) for the mainstream song that was sung in German (Du Hast). I thought it was innovative riffage and was cool to listen to, but nothing more. The album jacket spoke for itself - Garish masochism.

I did hear some of their new music and got an impression similar to the Crocodile Dundee movie where Dundee sees television again for the first time in years. He turns the TV and an 'I Love Lucy' rerun is playing. He said "Yep, that's what I saw", and snaps it back off again.

So there's no reason to get worked up ladies and gentlemen.

"Yep, that's what I saw..."

Here is my newest favorite band.  Black Mountain.  They are from Canada and they are prog-ilicious.  Wayne Coyne (Flamming Lips) loves them, so that is some high praise.  This is from their second album (only two out so far), the song on the album is 17 freaking minutes long and it contains a beautiful sweet Pink Floydy ambient middle synth section.  The Keyboardist uses only analogue synths and organs.  This is the goods.  I love this stuff.  The future of popular music is right here (maybe?) to me anyway.

Sorry for my burst of opinionated dismissal.  I never heard of them before.  So, maybe he's as old as Alice Cooper.  Shock is so juvenile, blatant--and uncreative.

That's a funny quote from Crocodile Dundee.  I've been meaning to show that to my 13-year-old.  Now I'm more motivated to rent it.

Pete Wingfield 'Whole pot of jelly (little slice of toast)' The great Pete Wingfield.  If you ever want to see a bloke work at a piano watch this guy play piano for Van Morrison on the Live at Montreux 1974 dvd.  That was the year before this single came out, I believe.

I used to hear My Baby Gives It Away off that album on KDKB (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KDKB) in Phoenix.  It wasn't angsty enough for me at the time.  Maybe I'll give it another chance now.

BTW: Several months ago I found an old cassette of KDKB that I had recorded off the air, including some DJ commentary and old commercials from 1977.  Great material if I ever want to do another song like The Abbie Hoffman Incident (https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=4246.0).  Calling Nigel...

I agree about 'My baby gives it away'  I'm not a big Pete Townsend fan and I don't think he's that strong on this album.  But his name probably put a few quid in Ronnie Lane's pocket when he needed it.  Not all the Faces prospered in the same fashion.

Always loved this tune.

How much of a monster is Rocco Prestia on bass?  I find it amazing that he sounds like a sequencer, but he still manages to drip with soul.  Whew.

Blooby




"What is Hip?"
Tower of Power

So ya wanna dump out yo' trick bag.
Ease on in a hip thang,
But you ain't exactly sure what is hip.

So you started to let your hair grow.
Spent big bucks on your wardrobe.
Somehow, ya know there's much more to the trip.

What is hip?
Tell me, tell me, if you think you know.
What is hip?
If you're really hip,
the question, "Will it show?"
You're into a hip trip.
Maybe hipper than hip.
What is hip?

You became a part of a new breed.
Been smokin' only the best weed.
Hangin' out with the so called "Hippie set."

Seen in all the right places.
Seen with just the right faces.
You should be satisfied, but it ain't quite right.

Hipness is. What it is!
Hipness is. What it is!
Hipness is. What it is!
Sometimes hipness is, what it ain't.

You went an' found you a guru.
In an effort to find you a new you,
And maybe even raise your conscious level.

While you're striving to find the right road,
There's one thing you should know,
"What's hip today, might become passe'."

What is hip?
I'd like to know!

. . .

I wanna know what hipness is.

Blooby, you just became my best friend. This is the coolest song by the best band that ever walked the planet. Check out this song on their "Live and In Living Color" album. It was recorded in the 70s before all the digital fix-it stuff. Back then, a live album was LIVE. It's the most incredible live performance I've ever heard. I went to see these guys play at House of Blues about a year or two ago. If they ever come to your town it's well worth seeing. They're still bringing it.

Lenny is on the right.  That looks like Pat Martino in the center.  Who's on the left?

It doesn't look like Al Kooper as the name on the mirror would suggest.

I searched Google Images (http://images.google.com/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi) for Lenny Breau and Pat Martino and found the picture. It was linked to Bucky Barrett's MySpace page where I found the picture about a quarter of the way down the page. The caption says "Bucky with Pat Martino & Lenny Breau - 1976".

Love the Chet & Les video. But I couldn't help noticing at about 38 seconds into it that the backup band has at least four guitar players! Why??? Okay, maybe one was a bass player. But still - sheesh!  ::)

64G, As a technologist, you should appreciate the principle of redundancy.  In a band backing Chet Atkins and Les Paul, it must have been very likely that at least one of the accompanying guitarists' heads would explode.  Another might crap his pants, or just throw down his guitar and begin supplicating, "I am not worthy!" You need to plan for these things and make sure at least one backup guitarist can survive and carry on.

I don't use smileys very often.  If I find myself considering using a smiley, it's usually because I'm afraid my tone might be misinterpreted--when I'm not intending to be a jerk, but my words could be taken that way.  Smiley temptation is a warning sign that I should either rephrase my words, or keep my silence.

Anyway: That was also the first Soulstar song I've ever heard. I believe I read on their Web site (http://www.thisissoulstar.com) that this song will be on a forthcoming album. (https://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?action=dlattach;attach=4242;type=avatar)

I'm a fan of older Alice Cooper, and haven't given much of a chance to anything released since (seriously) Lace and Whiskey, which was in 1977!

So the other day saw Super Hits on sale for $3.99 US.  What the hell, I thought, It'll probably suck, but I can risk $4 on my homie Alice.

This is fabulous:


From The Last Temptation, released in 1994.

Starts of with something that sounds like Frippertronics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frippertronics), then a Spanish guitar progression, then it gets even better.

Okay, I'm not listening to this right now.

But last night I saw Bob Dylan at the Arizona State Fair, and I took this crummy little picture with my phone:

(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_5ufFH99Ewzk/StqAMXObVoI/AAAAAAAAA6k/yoCQedKz7TQ/s400/1017091921-749522.jpg)

Bob is all the way on the right.  Interestingly, he played keyboards most of the night. Somewhere in the center is Charlie Sexton on guitar.

Pedro: Would you get right on that post-by-email feature.  Thanks.

It was a very good concert.  I was reluctant to become a fan of Dylan. Time Out Of Mind from 1997 was the album that finally hooked me.  The song Cold Irons Bound in particular.  So some of my favorite Dylan music comes from the period after his voice was already totally thrashed.  Some fans of older Dylan music prefer his old lousy voice to his new lousy voice, and may have been disappointed.

Bill Nelson is a great guitar player - and this for me was also a sleeper album. Bought it in the 70s, didn't listen to it much, but then rediscovered on CD a few years ago. It's held up as well or better than some of the other Be Bop Deluxe albums.

Artie Shaw - 'Someone to watch over me' from the last recordings of the Gramercy Five in 1954.

Don't you just love those records that make you feel, if only for 3 or 4 minutes, like you don't need to listen to anything else?  Artie Shaw was really special and it didn't hurt being married to Lana Turner and Ava Gardner, that would make you feel like making music for a while.

No clips of the song available but this is with the big band in 1940 doing 'Stardust'.  Even if the idiom is not to your liking, hang in there until the clarinet comes around 1:45.

OK, one more on the blues guitar theme before I retire as tonight's DJ.  Without a doubt, in my mind at least, the greatest blues guitarist ever, Wayne Bennett (but don't tell him that, he didn't like to be thought of in such a restrictive fashion), with Mel Brown at the other side of the stage.  Mel Brown had five albums as leader before he was playing second fiddle to Wayne Bennett in gigs like this.  Ah, riches, we throw them away like used tissues. Wayne Bennett and Mel Brown on the same stage, that's like (for those of you that like the other type of blues guitar) Hendrix and Clapton in the same band.  I'm going to my bed.  There's only so much in a bottle of Tullamore Dew.

At about 3:58, Lydon looks like a kid looking in the mirror practicing his crazy face. At first his face is relaxed, and then he opens his eyes wide as though he missed his cue to look maniacal.

I was listening to bass phenom Oteil Burbridge's "No More Doubt." This song pretty much encapsulates what I like about music: great musicianship, great song, great dynamics, great singer, and a great jam.  I know it gets a little nutty in the outro, but I love how the cacophany abruptly ceases with that little five-note ending.

You may want to crack a beer while listening to this one.

Quote from: Davo on October 25, 2009, 02:37:52 AMIm huge fan, I wonder what the Brits think of Johnnys little PIL?  Anger IS an energy.

This Brit loves them and has done since "First Issue" in 1978. Jah Wobble's bass, Levene's wall of noise guitar and Lydon's acerbic vocals are hard to beat. But they got even better when John McGeoch was on board, in my opinion one of the the best guitarists in recent history. PiL are one of my fave all time bands.

This is what you want? This is what you get.

According to the Cracker Web site, this is what Johnny Hickman uses:

Quote from: http://www.crackersoul.org/gear/
  • Gibson Les Paul, approx 78/79 vintage, heavily "modified" with Kehler whammy bar.  The body sports numerous carvings and decorations executed by Johnny himself, most noticeably a number seven, leading to the guitar sometimes being known as the "Lucky Seven" guitar. This is Johnny's main guitar, now used almost exclusively during live performances.  His other Les Paul, with its distinctive fish decoration, perished on tour.
  • Fender Eric Clapton model Stratocaster (rarely used live.)

I believe PIL are about to record again. Not with all the proper members intact, but Mr Lydon says he has a lot of lyrical content from his father's death to share with the world. I hope it's not a sad cash-in on former glories. You really can't tell with Lydon, lol. Could be good...

The Bottle Rockets live at the Duck Room, St. Louis 27th, December, 2008. It's a boot, but the band lets recorders come into shows as long as they let them know in advance. Pretty clean recording all things considered. Damn fine show. I was there and loved it.

In 2008 it was the Bottle Rockets 15th anniversary and they allowed message boaders to post set lists of 20 songs with one cover. They picked a set list for each of their 15 headlining shows (they also recorded the new album that came out this August) and I was lucky enough to be a set list winner. On this show they played a second set of all the covers from all 15 shows. It was pretty cool.

They also gave away that Creston Guitar I've been drooling over for a year and a half. Better start saving some pennies.

I hadn't seen the video ORH...thanks for posting. I am a huge fan of Robyn and like my other greatest inspiration, Tom Waits, he gets better and better with age!

Here's something old and something new(ish):

First the old: 1988 - Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart - Camper Van Beethoven. A masterpiece - Each song is a gem. Such sentiment in each track without even knowing the words (which are great by the way). I was listening to this when I first started dating my wife and it always takes me back there:

"And this here's a government experiment and we're driving like Hell, to give some cowboys some acid and to stay in motels."

(A lot of Youtubers are covering the Sublime version but the original is by far my favorite)

*it won't play embedded but able to view at youtube.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51PP8TwXrxE

Kind of a lame video, but hey it was the 80's - everyone was making bad videos.

Although my favorite video of all time was from the 80's! My buddy and I saw it in 11th grade and laughed so hard...I hadn't seen it in over 20 years but thanks to youtube I can watch it and laugh just as hard now.

Director to band: simple - just keep your eyes on the camera while you wreck everything!

From 1986 this is Lose Your Love - Blancmange:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N81UChK78WY

Okay, sorry for that tangent...back to what I'm listening to.

Here's the new(ish): 2007 Ongiara - Great Lake Swimmers. Beautifully subtle melancholic sounds. Rural, atmospheric and distincty Canadian...You will "no doubt" here a Neil Young influence.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQ6W_cq-zQ0

That's all for now.

Vocals kind of reminded me of David Lowery. Then along comes Gritter with his CVB video.  I'm a recent Cracker convert, so I'm completely unfamiliar with Lowery's younger appearance--when he didn't look like Willie Nelson's stunt double.

When I'm not listening to Bosko's 'Death of the Sun', this week I've also been listening to Guild of Temporal Adventurers with Kendra Smith (of Dream Syndicate & Opal), and digging this song 'Stars Are In Your Eyes' in particular. I was a big fan of Opal, which morphed into Mazzy Star when Kendra left Opal, but somehow I never picked this up until this week.

Not much of video that was posted for it, but it's a great song!

In my development as a musician and bassist, I reached a fork in the road.  I imagined one road leading to led to Stanley Clarke (virtuosity), the other to Nick Lowe (songwriter).  Nick seemed to be having more fun.

Cool version, Ted.

My favourite version is by The Roches. I can't find it on YouTube but you can hear a short preview of it here:

The guitar sound reminds me of Mark Knopfler.

This is really cool.

The music doesn't start until about 4:40 (and not much happens before that, if you want to fast forward).

That's Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, Jazz guitarist Joe LoPiccolo, and Rainn Wilson from The Office (the US version) on bongos.  Wilson plays a very understated bongo part--not the goof I was expecting.

The Wreckless Eric Radio Show
Quote from: http://wrecklessericofficial.blogspot.com/2009/12/wreckless-eric-radio-show-21-click-to.htmlLast show of the year. Not a round-up of the finest moments of the decade but no less snappy and professional for that. Close the decade and let the new year in with Wussy, Buffy St Marie, The Research Turtles, Miles Davis, Waylon Jennings, Robert Coyne and a preview of the other side of the latest Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby 45. Plus a seasonal reading from A Dysfunctional Success.

Wussy is what caught my attention.  Chuck Cleaver of Wussy (and formerly of Ass Ponys) is one of my favorite songwriters.

All the tracks are excellent but this one, the lead off track, best displays how the arrangement was built from a single musician busking...Playing for Change (very clever). www.playingforchange.com (http://www.playingforchange.com)

A great cause as the money raised from sales and concerts go to build music schools around the world.

Chanda Mama is my favourite track on this amazing disc.

I linked this old Finnish song (1972) from Pekka Streng - I think most of you haven't heard this before;-). Anyway, Pekka Streng suffered from cancer and he died in 1975 at the age of 27. He released just two LP's; Magneettimiehen Kuolema (The Death of Magnet Man) and Kesämaa (Summer Land). He knew through all his career that he'd die, but the songs are very beautiful and optimistic. There's more songs from Pekka in You Tube...

Someone has translated the lyrics, so I put them here:

Leafy trees and perennial plants,
vine, fruit, faded bones
Plants that look upon you with soft eyes by day
and weep by night

Plants that make you feel years younger
and plants that deepen your wrinkles when they shrivel
Annabella dances in the garden
where she wanders around watering seedlings
Roope Hattu tells them stories
because flowers are good listeners

Ferns and frogs,
goblins, fairies, daisies
Many fountains gush from your heart

One of the reasons I moved to London (from Melbourne) in 1986 was because I loved the Cocteau Twins and wanted to see them live.  I eventually saw them at a gig with the Throwing Muses in Kilburn (I think).  Great night but I didn't get to kiss liz.  I actually didn't know what she looked like until I got to London and saw her in some music press paper. Her version of "Song to the Siren" is my all-time favourite song.

Sitting at home completely snowed in.. but just learned Buckethead has a new album released officially today...

Due to the stage getup and the mask / bucket there is a lot of pre-judgment about BH and its a shame the catalog he has has some of the most impressive music out there, something for everyone.

Although he can shred with the best of them, this new album is pure melodic layered textures that is very soothing and quite enjoyable.

The Jarrett or the AC/DC Live, Blooby?

If the Jarrett, my brother tells me he just picked up a new (released late last year) live CD set recorded at concerts in London and Paris the year before.  He said it is very good.  I might track it down and give it a listen.  I just can't see it being better than the Koln Concert though.

Here is a review of the new Jarrett I mentioned.  http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=34218 (http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=34218)

You are correct, he is an arrogant prima donna.  There are many stories about his rants at audiences and dummy spits when people have taken photographs of him.  He is a truly great musician but will never go down in history as being a great man.  My guess is that he has Asperger's Syndrome (or something similar) and doesn't do people well.

Having said that, his Köln Concert is nothing short of sublime.  It really is a most amazing journey and package of colours and emotions.  It was recorded in 1975 on a "dodgy" piano because the stage-hands wheeled out the wrong instument (a practice piano rather than the concert piano).

I came across it in the mid 1980s when I was looking for a cross-section of music to roadtest high end hi-fi gear.  I picked this and some sheffield lab stuff which is another story in and of itself.

I have bought 5 copies of the CD over the years - they get lost, borrowed (but not returned) and damaged somehow.  I have listened to the whole CD start to finish probably fifty times and certain tracks or passages countless hundreds of times.

It is a must-have in my book.  I think Köln Concert is the album I would choose if I was stuck on the proverbial desert island (with a CD player and Sennheiser headphones of course).

Andy plays on a couple Simon Phillips discs (my favorite drummer perhaps.  He's in the "Cry for You" video above).  The double live Out of the Blue I like as it's a bit more raw.

I always liked Timmons' homage to Hendrix below.

As a side note, I want that signature model Ibanez he's playing.

I first became aware of Daniel's music through M. Ward. He played this one live...it rips your heart out. If you don't know M. Ward check him out...he captures the sound of a lost America of the dusty past. He's also covered Buddy Holly, Louis Armstrong...and David Bowie...

Someone has put this song to scenes from "Magnolia". It wasn't actually in the movie.

I am totally transfixed and betwixed by this damn song.  I am officially obsessed.  Daniel Johnston, who knew.  Thank you Sandy and Jim for the introduction to this incredible talent.  This is an amazing discovery for me gents.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sch9FGd4HHc

"Daniel Johnston is one of the most underappreciated lyricists of our time, and as a performer, the emotion he emits on stage rivals that of legends like Bob Dylan and Neil Young. His illness has contributed to his music in a bizarre way, effectively making him a contemporary Syd Barrett. But unlike Barrett, Johnston has managed to save himself from personal demons. As a result, he continues to bring joy to his fans across the world. The music of Daniel Johnston is unlike anything else you're likely to hear, and his performances are just as indescribable."

Always liked the production of this Charlie Sexton album.  Kind of Lanois-esque on the slower tunes.  Since he left Dylan's band, he's back with the Arc Angels.

I could see Greeny liking him.

Well, because today is the anniversary of my fav guitar player`s death, Randy Rhoads. Ive been playing Blizzard of Oz, Diary of a Madman and Tribute. I refuse to listen to the remastered versions of those because Ozzy actually let Sharon drop the original bass and drums of Bob Daisley, and Lee Kerslake and remastered it with Rob Trujillo and whatever the new drummers name is. That frikkin pissed me off tremendously when i heard it. Bark At the Moon is even worse. Anyways, here`s an isolated guitar track from Crazy Train that just popped up on the net.

R.I.P Randy Rhoads

'The T.A.M.I. Show' on DVD (just released for the first time on DVD - I picked it up at Newbury Comics) - this film hasn't been seen in its entirety in the U.S. since it originally aired in 1964, shortly after 'A Hard Day's Night' came out. Sure, there's plenty of corn here (Leslie Gore ;) ), but there were some great performances by James Brown, Marvin Gaye, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Billy J. Kramer & the Dakotas, Smokey Robinson & The Miracles, The Beach Boys, etc. And it's all captured live.

All sound generating from a human percussion pit assembled at centre stage. Somewhere between Tom Waits and Frank Zappa.

I went to highschool with these guys in Beaconsfield, Quebec in the 80's! This performance must have been around '83 or '84. They were about 17 years old, a couple years older than me but a good bunch of guys...I partied with them on a number of occaissions.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbhcPUBA5WQ

The singer John Kastner grew dreads and went on to front the Doughboys and had a bit of success with the song Shine which was used on Much Music's Alternative show called the Wedge (I think it is still the theme song). It's a great song that makes me feel 20 something again...aaaahh the early 90's a special time in my life.

You can stream 3RRR from here: http://www.rrr.org.au/programs/streaming/ (http://www.rrr.org.au/programs/streaming/) if you want a sample of the best radio station in the world!!!!

Cool song Robyn Hitchcock song, James - I'm ashamed to say I don't have his latest, so if this is from there, I'll be getting it soon. The woodwind sounds at the beginning remind me of Roxy Music.

He's the best...more people deserve to know his music...I will be picking up this one soon to add to my RH library (It must be at around 30 CDs and he has many more). Prolific is an understatement when it comes to Robyn!

That's a really good song. RH has always seemed like an artist I really should like, so I bought Uncorrected Personality Traits (the best-of CD), and I only liked a couple of songs.  Maybe a best-of wasn't the right place to start.

Tom Lehrer was a bit before my time, but he's a hero for two reasons:  (1) He's wickedly funny, and (2) he didn't give a damn about celebrity and preferred to go back to being a college professor, teaching math to liberal arts majors.

Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_LehrerLehrer's musical career was brief; in an interview in the late 1990s, he pointed out that he had performed a mere 109 shows and written 37 songs over 20 years. Nevertheless, he developed a significant cult following both in the U.S. and abroad.

Now that's a prolificacy to which I can relate.

Most of the forum veterans have probably heard these early takes, but if you haven't heard his stuff before, it was all recorded on a Boss BR-1600. If you're new to The Stan Laurels, be sure to check out his 'Death of the Sun', too.

Well, when the weather gets warmer it's time to bring out the Rock Steady, Reggae and Ska...I got this one a couple years ago. It might just be my favorite Rock Steady or Reggae album of all time....yes in fact it is! I love Bob Marley, Culture and Burning Spear but man this album is solid. Every song is stellar. Tim sure knows how to lay down a sweet rhythm...with L.A. ska/soul band the Aggrolites backing him, this is a nice departure from his great work with Rancid.

Hugh Masekela, Strawberries
http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/Strawberries/2BJacN

Fricken cool Ted...I like your taste in solos. Hugh Masekela has such a freshness to his music...like an orchard or garden just beginning to grow...that trumpet always says "I'm Hugh and I'm here to make you feel good again...no worries at all." I saw him in Montreal in 1988 with Paul Simon's Graceland tour. What a show that was. Thanks for sharing this post. That solo was a nice surprise...understated and beautiful.

Here's one of my favorite guitar solos at 1:12.
Miss Gradenko:
solo by Andy Summers
written by Stewart Copeland
sung by the bass player

That sure foreshadows Andy Summers' collaborations with Robert Fripp.

Speaking of that: Yesterday The Other Way Of Stopping passed through my shuffle, and gave me a big energy boost.  Without looking, I couldn't remember whether it was The Police or something from I Advanced Mask.

I love that one too Ted...It seems Andy and Stewart always shined a little brighter and played a little more outside the box on each others' tunes. I saw Andy live about 10 years ago. Great show and such a personable and funny guy. He was always the coolest one in the Police.

Greetings from Moab, Utah.

I also never pass a chance to drive on Utah State Route 128.  Today I stopped and snapped some pictures in the ghost town of Cisco.  I found out that Cisco was the inspiration for a song by Johnny Cash:


Here's a picture I took of what looked to be the ruins of a filling station:

My turn:

I saw the Police in 1981 with The English Beat and A Flock of Seagulls.

...but in 1983 (now I'm bragging) I saw them with Talking Heads, Peter Tosh, and Stevie Ray Vaughan!

One of my favourite things. Paul McCartney playing acoustic guitar on the demo version of 'Step Inside Love' which Cilla Black had a huge hit with. I love the simplicity of this demo and the way Cilla sings it. She had a lovely voice.

It's followed by paul singing it himself.

Big World by Joe Jackson:

I threw this into the player in my car the other day after not listening to it for years. It instantly took me back in time. You see this album came out in my graduation (from high school) year; 1986. It was also the year of Vancouver's World Fair: Expo 86 and the theme was transportation. Looking back it was a night of pure magic and the stars were aligned when I saw Joe Jackson perform the album and some of his other hits at the outdoor Expo Theatre with my girlfriend the night after my grad party. I was extremely hung over but Joe and his marvelous band took me around the world that night and gave me one of the best memories of any concert I've ever experienced.

While listening to the CD the other day I remebered how frickin' good it actually is. It was recorded live with the audience asked not to applaud after each song. It just sounds incredible and the songs are some of his best. It was released as 3 sides on LP with the fourth side blank.

I found this gem below from Japan from the same tour. This was the opening song from his set. The lyrics are sublime.

PS, for those you don't know aussie lingo, "dink" means to ride your bike while carrying someone else at the same time.  Traditionally, the passenger either sits on the cross bar  (if you trust the passenger, you can let them steer), or sits on the seat behind the rider.

After visiting Ronnie Scott's Jazz club in London on Wednesday and seeing Bill Evans and Robben Ford live I have suddenly fallen in love with their style of music.
Whilst at the club I purchased Bill Evans's most recent album "Soulgrass". It's brilliant, but not for pure jazz fans, as it is a stange (but wonderful) mix of soul, jazz and bluegrass.

Purge yourself of the slap. It's just a little trick on the bass, great in small doses but like most things, a bit sickly if you have too much of it.

Magnificent player Andy McKee.  He came to my attention a while agowhen talking on a forum and I'd mentioned the huge loss to music in Micheal Hedges.  My friend pointed me to Andy Mckee and one of his own videos doing one of his tunes.

I was amazed by both.

Here is one his compos that I'm listening to now.

I was going to invite him to the forum - what do you think?

The second video reminded me of some of the studio scenes when they were working on Ivan's record in 'The Harder They Come', one of my favorites. I like the vintage gear.

Looks like I'll be adding some to my CD collection soon... :D

I've got a few CDs of his and was fortunate enough to see him and his band play live a couple of years ago in a village hall near Market Harborough.  That's right - a village hall in the English East Midlands putting on a show by an American blues/rock guitarist and minor legend - and one I've always liked.  I saw a small advert in one of the local free papers ( you know - the ones that normally advertise this week's special offers at the camping shop and Lidl) and went along fully expecting it to be a bunch of local boys doing covers.  But no - it was the man himself - who proceeded to do a great show.  As village hall's go it was quite big and it was packed.  I haven't got the album you have but I'll check it out.

He's got his own site:

Thanks Paul, I'll check his site out when I get home. It's amazing who you find at small venues. Albert Lee is a guitarist who is a personal favourite of mine and about three times a year he plays with Hogans Heros in a 200 seater marquee near to me because he likes the sound!!!  Cheers Willie

Agree one of my favourite bands from that time, and Francis Dunnery's solowork after they split up, though totally different from It Bites, is also fantastic. And he is a very nice guy. I've been to two of the three houseconcerts he's given in Norway, and they where some of my best concert experiences ever.

The Littl'ans: I discovered this band via Pete Doherty (Babyshambles and The Libertines). He did a song with them and also allegedly stole a couple band members from the Littl'ans. I love all three of these bands.

I know some people here will gag at this but I bought "two against nature", yes that Steely Dan album, a coupla weeks ago and there is a lot on this album that just blows me away. I am very aware that these guys are pretty anal in the studio (see "Classic albums: the making of Aja), but I'm pretty enthralled at the moment with this whole record.

I'm sure it will come as no great surprise, Geir, to learn that I am a huge fan of It Bites.  I must have seen them a dozen times including a few pub gigs.  Hugely underated band.  I spoke to Frank Dunnery on a number of occaisions and he's a really nice chap.  Here's a song of his that shows another side to his talent.

No surprice at all!! And I agree with all you said !! I've met Mr Dunnery twice myself, on house-concerts in Norway, and he's a reaøøy nice chap indeed, and one hell of an entertainer!! His storys are almost as entertaining as his music. And what an unique talent !!! On one of the shows he did a medley of 70s songs, building a couple of them up by playing different instrument parts on his acoustic guitar. For those who haven't seen him, I highly recommend it. I think he's touring the UK now.

So you can get The Beatles on iTunes now. Yawn.

The big loser in this is Joe Goldmark, whose "Steelin' the Beatles" album is going to sell fewer tracks now that real Beatles songs will turn up in iTunes searches.

Goldmark's version of Flying is sublime:

I was thinking about comedy songs and th ilk and decided to browse YouTube(where else?) and came across a few post Goon and pre Pythons stuff. Very "British Humour" that I hadn't heard since I was a kid?  Some of it is well done with lots of imagination going into the write and arrangement, so I thought I'd share with you this snippet by Bernard Cribbens.

That was the first song I tried to perform in public when I was still trying to be a drummer in the 60's.
At least I think it was the 60's, then again I don't remember much from that epoch.
One day it was greased back hair & hanging at the malt shop (to young then to legally drink :) ) , next thing I knew it was powder blue polyester leisure suits and I was married.  ??? ???

Dang, I'm positive there was a 60's.

The truth is, that it was the Royal Guardsmen's cover version of Li'l Red Riding Hood that we learned.  I still have the Snoopy (http://www.amazon.com/Snoopy-Vs-Red-Baron-Friends/dp/B00005J9U0) album, and I even bought the CD a couple of years ago.

But until tonight, I'd never seen video of the Royal Guardsmen. Thank you very much.

All these people are watching and entertained by these guys pressing buttons? Every note is perfect which is another reason it`s not right in my books. If people start making IPAD bands they are not going to like me throwing things at them. Why should they have music schools anymore when you can master every instrument on the IPAD?

yes...very sad. Stab wound to the chest...probably self inflicted. It went "unsolved". Here's another one that gave this already very dramatic scene from The Royal Tenembaums even more weight. There was such beauty and sadness in his songs. One of my all time favourite films.

Soulful Roots.

Winston Rodney (aka Burning Spear) as Joseph Hill (late leader of Culture) listens.

Notice that they each have one burning.

Sandy, Your rather sad tale about poor old Gene and his deteriorating mental health has got me on a mad Ween kick here.  They lived out the old-school rock and roll dream didn't they, especially Gene.  Incredible voice when he is "on", unbelievable really.  That cover of Led Zep is outstanding, he's like a musical savant or something.

Quotehis deteriorating mental health

I wouldn't go that far...I think he just indulged a bit excessively while they were here...Vancouver can do that to a man. It was the first show of the tour and they're not in their 20's anymore.

Reviews from Seattle and Portland have been very positive.

I love those two guys, I feel it listening to their shit, deep music for deep minds for sure, they are like miners for the truth, or something like that...I wish I could write a song 1/10 as truthful as they have, thats a goal of mine.  That picture of when they were kids is really something, what a story, what an amazing journey they have had.

Yup, they're just a couple dudes who have been best friends since they were teens, like to have fun, love all kinds of music and make music for themselves. The best music is made when you don't try to make music for a particular audience. That's why their fans love them so much. We all get to be in on their inside jokes...There's a lot of Love at their shows...(well it was lacking at this past Van show) - but I've seen them a bunch and the show last Monday was disappointing only because they've spoiled us so.

Whats up with all this Dire Straits domination lately.  I see them everywhere I go, they are mentioned a couple of times a day on this very site for craps sake.  Are they really from down under, out to take over the world with their New World order of music?  Who are those guys really?  Are they in league with Jack Black, hell bent on total control of our minds, our very souls?   Shut it off Jim, listen to some Ween instead.

I watched this intimate gig on BBC4 a few months ago. It's a bloody awesome amount of talent on that stage! Such a great mix of styles and strengths, but all fantastic at what they do. Loudon Wainwright kind of stole it for me - he performs with such warm, understated clarity. This is what you'd want to see at an open mic night!

I still have the flexible record of "The Attitude Song" which was stapled into an issue of Guitar Player magazine in the early eighties when I'd never heard of Steve Vai. The magazine also included a complete transcription of the song by Steve Vai himself, though it didn't help me in the least. :)  I remember that, in one part of the transcription, he inserted a note that said something like "Play all Es on the fretboard simultaneously".

At the time, I was blown away by this song. But since then, I haven't really been into Vai's music. He's a great guitar player but his style of music just isn't my cup of tea. I'd much rather listen to Joe Satriani for that style of music. But I still like "The Attitude Song". I even bought the CD ("Flex-Able") containing that song a few years later.

I prefer the original 1984 studio recording over that orchestra-accompanied version though.

Although I do not own, and probably never will own, one thing of music from Prince, I have always had a lot of respect for him as a musician. He just keeps on doing his own thing, be damned what people think he should do. And I had forgotten how good of a guitar player he is. That was badass!

Great story, Daniel - I had heard some of it, but not that this song destroyed their relationship!

I tend to sympathize with both parties on this - humiliating for her when she found out, but daring as hell in pushing the boundaries of what was allowed in pop music and on TV.

I love the male choir in "Plescheyevo Lake" from "Alexander Nevsky" by Sergei Prokofiev.
Here it is performed by the St Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra.
As with most orchestral music, it sounds best cranked up so you can appreciate the dynamic range.

That "Plescheyevo Lake" video I posted is a song which was included on a free music sampler CD-ROM from Microsoft promoting Windows 95. Another cool song from that CD-ROM is "Every Iceberg is Afire" by Sky Cries Mary. There's a video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tl8h7hmNYsk) but embedding is disabled and the quality's not very good anyway, so here's the song from Grooveshark.

[grooveshark]25607508[/grooveshark]
All the statues are headless
All the homeless are bedless
All the hungry are breadless
All the commies, they are redless

All the heavens are starless
All the drunkards are barless
Streetwalkers are carless
All the big-talkers, they are cigarless

All the drugstores are drugless
All the Persians are rugless
Worst-dressed are best list
Nightclubs, they got the guest list

Oceans are streetless
All the poets are beatless
All the dreamers are feetless
Let all the diseased be diseaseless

The whole world is moonshine
Everything's a pipe dream
Everyone's a shadow
Religions are smoke screens

The whole world's a wino
Oceans gettin' higher
We're all goin' swimmin'
Every iceberg is afire

McLaughlin's duo stuff and his trio stuff with Trilok Gurtu is some of his most under-appreciated periods.


I have a Trilok Gurtu CD (The Beat of Love), but I know nothing else about him. I'll be looking into that work with McLaughlin.

I'm just rediscovering his incredible music. I used to listen to him quite a bit in my late teens but when I joined the band in my twenties I stopped...needed more edge in my musical tastes then and of course discovered a lot of great music along the way but I'm so glad to come back and experience Bruce with brand new ears.

I had never heard this one until a few weeks ago.

Hey, Mr. Cryptic. I don't get it. I looked up OFM on Wikipedia and found that they're a band from Doncaster, South Yorkshire. And I know that Emmerdale is a soap (I used to watch it regularly a few years ago). But I can't find any connection between the two. I thought maybe OFM made an album or song called Emmerdale, but I couldn't find any. The only OFM album I can find is called "The Danger In Pretending". Care to enlighten us?

In the season 4 double episode called "An Explosive Affair", he sang the following lyrics while drumming on a toolbox which, unbeknownst to him, contained a bomb.

Day-O! Day-ay-ay-o
Daylight come and me wanna throw up   :D



Of course, the other thing that comes to mind is the scene from Beetlejuice. That was a classic too.

On a couple of occasions recently, I've had to look for Creative Commons licensed music to use in YouTube videos for work (because my employer doesn't pay me to create music on his clock).

This piece is very simple and repetitive, yet somehow endlessly interesting--and it worked great as background music.

Edwyn Collins, such an inspiration. He suffered a stroke in 2005 and has worked hard at regaining his speech. He is still unable to play guitar due to limited movement in his right arm but he's writing, recording and playing live once again.

Here is his latest with Franz Ferdinand's Alex Kapranos on guitar and Paul Cook from the Sex Pistols on drums:

Rome by Danger Mouse & Danielle Luppi, with Jack White & Nora Jones. It's a concept album tribute to the music of the Spaghetti Westerns by Ennio Morricone and others. Not covers, but an original work inspired by the ideas of such music. I just love stuff like this.  :)

No YouTube video, but I have a good old fashioned link:

http://www.npr.org/2011/05/09/136094599/first-listen-danger-mouse-and-daniele-luppi-rome

There's a link near the top of the page to stream the album in its entirety, and links below to play individual tracks.

Highly recommended...  8)

I never did much care for this song. I preferred "Gone Daddy Gone."  But I never knew they had an acoustic bass player. That's kind of a daydream of mine--to play my acoustic bass in a stripped down rock band.

My 13 yo boy told me a couple of days ago that he thinks he likes music more than video games.  This was a day I have been looking forward to for some time.  When I was 13, I loved Bob Seger.  I think this was the song that turned me on to music.

I quite agree.  Some people call him "The voice of Rock."  I think that's going a bit too far - but he's pretty good....

Bowie Heroes with the amazing Robert Fripp playing one note and making it sound like everything you have ever heard and nothing that you have ever heard.

1977 and it still sounds as fresh as the first time I heard it.

do you know mr fripp did that in one take! after one listen! and after a stream of session guys couldnt figure out what to play. he did it during a world tour of elevators. and was doing his gig in a high rise elevator in berlin and popped into say hello to david and brian before his flight to next elevator.

Don Charbonneau's "Train Stories" cd
http://www.doncharbonneau.com/fr_home.cfm

Make a point of stopping in to see him at a shop he runs during the summer months in Wawa Ontario whenever we pass  through.

This year he was still there, but Wawa itself did not look so good, many of the shops were closed and up for sale.

Video is a song from his  "Nothern Highway" CD

From Finnish "forest folk"-genre.... Islaja - Pete P

Here's the lyrics translated to English:

Pete P, do you understand this: shout your sorrows into this jar and

break it to pieces. This jar hears you, it has an ear, but it wont

speak for it has no mouth.

Pete P, do you understand this: whisper your dreams into this jar

and treasure it, it may come true, maybe someone makes it true.

No no no, don't you put your hand into these jars, if you touch your dream

it

will break, if you grab your griefs they will double back to you,

they come back to you

The new Wilco album is very good. The first track (below) is the most experimental and didn't really grab me until the 3rd or 4th listen. Now I really dig it even if it's over 7 minutes long.

Like a group hug...

This is such a an amazingly sweet love song. One of the best duets...ever. I bought the album and the hole thing is great. I think they've performed it so much that they like to keep it fresh by changing up the arrangement when they perform. There are a bunch of great performances of it on youtube. Here are my 2 favourite:

Love M. Ward.

One of my favourites. I Love is production, his voice, his songs. He's got a new album coming out. It's been a while since his last solo album. He's been busy with She & Him, Monsters of Folk and producing but none of them is as good as his own music in my opinion:

One of my faves. I always wondered whether Brigitte tracked all of those hiccup-giggles (I'd imagine after the third or fourth time, it might start getting painful), or whether they did some tape looping?

I haven't listened to Serge in a while, and your post sent me out looking for some other youtube clips of some of my faves. The video for this one is just stills, but the audio quality is very good. Always loved this song:

Serge's songs shouldn't work. Neither Bridget or Jane can actually sing, lol. But somehow, they are so alluring and effortlessly cool. I also like 'Ford Mustang' a lot (amongst others). I've grown to like his stuff more and more over the years - it's so different to anything else.

Inspired by Blooby's post of "Mother Goose" (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=14213.0;topicseen), I've been listening to a couple of my favourite tracks from Jethro Tull's "Crest of a Knave" album.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxNmpMf0Uw4



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9ZQ7Rese70


Among other things, I love the line "I'm your Pepsi-Cola but you won't take me out the can" in "Said She Was a Dancer", and these awesome lines in "Budapest":

Yes, and her legs went on forever.
Like staring up at infinity
through a wisp of cotton panty
along a skin of satin sea.

Actually, there are quite a few great lines in the lyrics. Check 'em out.

They opened with this 10 minute epic:

Sounds like a good song to cover for GurlFest.

By the way, the video wouldn't play for me. It says "The uploader has not made this video available in your country". So I searched YouTube and found this one from EMI Norway which works for me. I assume it's the same video.

1. I might just give it a try ;D

2. That happens quite often for me too. Well the other way around that is. I thought the world was getting more open, guess I'm wrong ::) ::)

BTW. I'm a bit surprised that no-one caught the resemblance with this one :  (James, Nigel .... shame on you ;D )

I've always loved this song and Hook's cover (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=14977.0) of it made me have another listen. What a great vocal. And the guitar solo, though short, is so tasteful! It just fits the song perfectly.

(Grooveshark's sound quality is best but the video's worth checking out)

Ska => Rock Steady => Reggae because the dancers were getting tired and wanted something slower to dance to.

I've had this song for more than two years on a mix made for me by a friend.

I didn't have a title or the name of the artist. I've heard it maybe four times. But today, as I'm cleaning the garage, it struck me how beautiful the song is.

So my listen/watch list has become a tad depressing.

"Don't you realize I'm Modern Man, and I need a TV to know who I am."

Damn.

I was 17 when The Brainz kicked off their set at little Phoenix punk show called X-O-Rama. I felt like my life had a purpose. I wanted to make music that kicked people in the crotch and brain at the same time.

Joe Albanese, the bass player for The Brainz, was among five people shot and killed in Seattle yesterday by a mentally-ill man.

There are a bunch of videos in the same vein as these with Earl Scruggs and Doc Watson jamming with a bunch of different artists. I have been watching a bunch of these lately from this documentary. What is really cool is how good these jams are in a such relaxed atmosphere, no egos, no drama queens, just raw goodness. I'm digging it.

Lead singer Shirley Manson is from Edinburgh and the rest of the band is from the American midwest. Shirley had previously been in a Scottish band called Angelfish.

Oh yeah, Shirley was also a regular in the TV series "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles".  :)

The first album was a classic 90s album, Butch Vig was in the band, think he may have been Nirvana's producer?

Cool! I'll have to experiment with that.

I love that the drummer's name is Chad Wackerman. :D Perfect name for a drummer. Could be a new topic in the Games board - Appropriate Names for Musicians. There's a guitarist named David Bendeth. That seems fitting. I'm sure there must be others, and we can make up names too. Could be fun. I'm on it.

Geir, you're sure not the only one who didn't understand their "English" :) . The singer/drummer Remu couldn't speak English. Nevertheless, they convinced Nick Lowe. He thought they were singing a sort of dialect. Here's an interview of Mr. Lowe (at 6:40).

By the way, Roadrunner was the first album i've ever purchased. The first Finnish pure rock band.

This is the first morning I've had some time in a while and like Lubo, I popped in Zeppelin. I returned my first Celebration Day purchase when I found out there was a 2 CD/2 DVD version. I am watching a complete run-through of their O2 set from Shepperton Studios right now. It has a complete lack 0f ADD-influenced cutaways, which I am enjoying. I think the editing on the main show is ridiculous.

I don't listen to Zep too often these days, but watching reaffirmed how much of a soundtrack these songs were to my youth. They sure covered a lot of ground musically.

Jim, I don't know if you'll remember this but there was a gig  20 odd years ago we done for the glen lusset  for the band premotion thing and it was the 1st time my band ever played together and the 1st song we played was Mary's prayer by Danny Wilson ,there was a video done of the night that I have seen but never been able to recover.
Good times.
If you ever find out who has the tape we can put it on here ;D

Musica Nuda (= Naked Music) is an Italian duo: Petra Magoni (voice) and Ferruccio Spinetti (double bass). Naked Music because their artistic philosophy is to go to the essence of the music, getting rid of superstructures.
The strange fact is that they are much more popular in France than in Italy...

Here are some videos:

wow! a double bass with a wah wah!
Eleanor Rigby is impressive - I don't understand how she doesn't get out of tune - it is really difficult to sing only with a double bass - 3-4 octaves below.
Oh! And loved the mountains and the hikers with the dog ;-) There is a feeling of humorous nonsense with it.

I am listening an old song sung by Yves Montand : Les feuilles mortes (better known as "autumn leaves"), 1946. Music : Joseph Kosma; Lyrics : Jacques Prévert

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sa9VCVWOjjY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sa9VCVWOjjY
A pure gem and beauty, who became a standard in jazz.
The lyrics are "simple" (as said Prévert himself), but beautyfull)
Oh ! je voudrais tant que tu te souviennes
Des jours heureux où nous étions amis.
En ce temps-là la vie était plus belle,
Et le soleil plus brûlant qu'aujourd'hui.
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle.
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublié...
Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle,
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi
Et le vent du nord les emporte
Dans la nuit froide de l'oubli.
Tu vois, je n'ai pas oublié
La chanson que tu me chantais.

{Refrain:}
C'est une chanson qui nous ressemble.
Toi, tu m'aimais et je t'aimais
Et nous vivions tous deux ensemble,
Toi qui m'aimais, moi qui t'aimais.
Mais la vie sépare ceux qui s'aiment,
Tout doucement, sans faire de bruit
Et la mer efface sur le sable
Les pas des amants désunis.

Les feuilles mortes se ramassent à la pelle,
Les souvenirs et les regrets aussi
Mais mon amour silencieux et fidèle
Sourit toujours et remercie la vie.
Je t'aimais tant, tu étais si jolie.
Comment veux-tu que je t'oublie ?
En ce temps-là, la vie était plus belle
Et le soleil plus brûlant qu'aujourd'hui.
Tu étais ma plus douce amie
Mais je n'ai que faire des regrets
Et la chanson que tu chantais,
Toujours, toujours je l'entendrai !
Jean-Sébastien

This is the kind of blues I love - Howlin' Wolf explains the blues (and lays into Son House, heckling off-camera). Well worth watching in its entirety:

Here's a direct link to the start the song "Meet Me In The Bottom", which surely influenced Don Van Vliet (don't get me wrong, I loves da Captain :) ):

not heard the johnny marr album yet, but saw him on tv doing the single from it, and thought it was very lacklustre and was greatly disappointed by it.
 been listening to the new flaming lips album the terror and can't decide as to whether it is just a noise or their finest work to date, first album i have listened to that actually left me physically disorientated.
it is pretty mental and out there.

this one is possibly the most accessible .

Iggy Pop on one of the new songs from the latest Iggy and the Stooges album called "Job"....On the other hand, there are a lot of people who work hard, and the job isn't enough to make ends meet. That's a tearjerker for me. That just very much upsets me."

Enjoyed this concert video very much

I like that drum setup. I don't think I've ever seen a snare drum played that way before. Cool idea. Gabriel used to play a bass drum and tambourine but I think this is the first time I've seem a bass drum and snare played with the feet. You should get some for your next video. :)

Started off as Kleenex, had to change their name to Lilliput after pressure from the people that make Kleenex tissues.  There was one John Peel show in 1978 where I recorded this then immediately after was Give Me Everything by Magazine.  They both remain as two of my favorite and most important songs.  Massive landmark for me that night.  I still have the tape though.

I'd love to hea that European punk comilation.  Peel was playing a lot of German punk and post-punk at the time. I recorded some tracks but I was in the habit of not recording the speaking so I have no idea who the bands are.  Some great music in Europe at the time.  I've spent quite a lot of time over the years trying to find out who those bands are.

Memories from the past...it was 1972, I was 17 and convinced my parents to go to London for my summer holidays.

I remember one evening at 100 club in Oxford Street, a concert with *the first* Weather Report (M. Vitous, Dom Um Roma, Wayne Shorter, Joe Zawinul...) and Nucleus. Both bands were almost unknown at that time, so the club was 50% empty. The two bands made sets of half an hour one after each other, and the concert, that began at 9:00, ended at 3:00 in the morning.

Wonderful memories.

Duran Duran did that thing of splitting so the rocky half went one way (Power Station with Robert Palmer) and the arty half went the other (Arcadia).  I had both albums on vinyl in the 80's, but I always prefered the Arcadia.

I recently downloaded the Arcadia album, remastered in 2010 and with dozens of 12" remixes and stuff, having not heard it since the 80's.  I'm a bit obsessed with it.  Better than the Duran Duran stuff, IMBO.

It's alright, they got back together after, in case you were wondering.

Very nice. Since being on songcrafters - I find that I analyse recording, to see what the engineer has done. The guitar is very slightly compressed, and the vocals are really up front - right in your face. Sounds like very little verb, and lots of delay - quite interesting. Vocals are really mixed high. Well thats my 10p worth - may be completely wrong - but is sounds great.

Right now... I think its Soft Machine... kind of whacky Jazz Rock Fusion. But in general lately a lot of Rory Gallagher and I am starting to lean to the frame of mind that pound for pound (please don't hit me...) he was better than Jimi Hendrix. I know this is not the generally accepted view but just thinking he kind of had the lot. So many different styles he was comfortable to see as part of his armoury, country, jazz, blues, hard rock, folk. Then there's the voice... so rich and full of feeling.

When asked how it feels to be the best guitarist in the world, Hendrix (apparently*) answered - 'I don't know: ask Rory Gallagher'. !!!!

*the quote is referenced to 1969: 2 years before Rory released an album! It's possible Hendrix had heard him / knew of him though.

Dang I miss vinyl

Not heard that one before, highly evocative, very sixties.  I kinda missed the 60's (born in '65) but I do have fondness and nostalgia for that time, I must admit.

New Man Man record sounds excellent. A certain refinement and realignment for the band. Definitely their most accessible song and record to date. Going to see them in October. Should be a good one...under $20 too.

It's a close call. Here's what Wikipedia says:

ReleasedRecorded
Todd Rundgren "A Wizard, a True Star"      March 2, 19731972-1973
Beck, Bogert & AppiceMarch 26, 1973 (US)      December 1972 & January 1973

I suspect that any similarity is just coincidence.

Turns out I was listening to the same band. I just watched their making of the album on DVD. I am a huge Neal Morse fan, actually everyone in the band except I wasn't familiar with the main singer (Casey McPherson from a band called Alpha Rev).

It's pop-prog. Reminds me a bit in concept to Asia with concise tunes and a great deal of musicianship.

Here's them doing an old Dixie Dregs tune.

Yeah, the pop-prog is a good tag. A friend was linking some youtube videos and I liked more than i didn't like. Killer drummer, Steve Morse on guitar... kind of strange not to have heard of it, but I guess I don't really listen to hard music anymore... well hardish, music.

Post by: 64Guitars on January 22, 2014, 07:01:18 PM
Always liked Edgar Winter's debut album "Entrance". Great stuff.

The "White Trash" album was great too. Here are a couple of my favourites from that one.



And now for something completely different...

This song is beautiful.

You know I've heard it said there's beauty in distortion
By some people who withdraw to find their head
Now they say that there is humour in misfortune
You know I wonder if they'll laugh when I am dead

   Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
   Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothin' in sight?
   Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
   Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?

You know some people say that values are subjective
But they're just speaking words that someone else has said
And so they live and fight and kill with no objective
Sometimes it's hard to tell the living from the dead

   Why am I fighting to live if I'm just living to fight?
   Why am I trying to see when there ain't nothin' in sight?
   Why am I trying to give when no one gives me a try?
   Why am I dying to live if I'm just living to die?

You know I used to weave my words into confusion
And so I hope you'll understand me when I'm through
You know I used to live my life as an illusion
But reality will make my dream come true

   So I'll keep fighting to live till there's no reason to fight
   And I'll keep trying to see until the end is in sight
   You know I'm trying to give so come on give me a try
   You know I'm dying to live until I'm ready to die

Stunning tune.

One of my favorites by one of my favorite guitarists.  I caught him once at a festival where Vishwa Mohan Bhatt sat in for the whole show.  The album A Meeting at the River with Bhatt and Ry Cooder is one of my favorites.

this is arguably the best song ever written.

I used to perch my three year old daughter on my hip and dance round the living room to this track. She would shriek wildly and exhort me to 'do it again daddy'. She's now coming up 23, I doubt I could dance so vigorously these days, let alone perch Kate on my hip. It's still a fabulous track and I love it.

I'm mining Pentangle's back catalogue. I've always like Danny Tompson's double bass (Nick Drake, Kate Bush amongst others), but some of Jansch's guitar work is mind-blowing.

Talking of 'shining a light', here's a beauty of theirs that's a current fave: 'Light Flight'. Might be an acquired taste though  :D

I kept a log book of all my album purchases from June 17, 1974 to the present. So I can tell you that on September 15, 1979, I purchased the following four albums. My next purchase was on Oct 17, 1979. So 35 years ago today (Oct 4, 1979), I was probably listening to these four albums.

"Oxygene" by Jean Michelle Jarre
"Stiffs Live" by Elvis Costello, Ian Dury, Nick Lowe, Larry Wallis, and Wreckless Eric.
"Fight Dirty" by Charlie
"Obscure Alternatives" by Japan

I didn't buy my first album (Dare by The Human League) until Dec 1981(!), so was still listening to my Dad's stuff (Nick Lowe, Eagles, Stones, Dire Straits).

Someone did tape a copy of  'Kings of the Wild Frontier' by Adam and the Ants for me in 1980 though. I wore that out.

I listened to a portable radio under the bedcovers at the time. I can remember The Ruts, Siouxsie, and The Specials vividly.

Tower Of Power – What Is Hip

So you want to jump out your trick bag
And ease on into a hip bag
But you ain't just exactly sure what's hip
So you start to let your hair grow
Spend big bucks to cop you a wardrobe
But somehow you know there's much more to the trip

What is hip?
Tell me, tell me if you think you know
What is hip?
If you was really hip
The passing years would show
You into a hip trip
Maybe hipper than hip
But what is hip?

So you became part of the new breed
Been smokin' only the best weed
Been hangin' out on the so-called hippest set
Being seen at all the right places
Being seen with just the right faces
You should be satisfied
Still it ain't quite right

[Chorus]

Hipness, what it is!
Hipness, what it is!
Hipness, what it is!
And sometimes hipness is
What it ain't!

You done even went and found you a guru
In your effort to find you a new you
And maybe even managed
To raise your conscious level
As you striving to find the right road
There's one thing you should know
What's hip today
Might become passe

I can be pretty hit or miss with Umphrey's McGee, but I made my own mix that I listen to all the time. This video is from last year when they recorded an album in one day at Abbey Road. Some pop in here, great playing, and even a hint of Belew-era King Crimson in spots.

have rediscovered supertramp. i bought crime of the century when it first came out and loved it,

just got hold of the remastered cd and wow.

however i then bought "crisis what crisis" on the day of it's release, to my ears it was a pile of depressive indulgent bilge and i never listened to supertramp again, "crisis what crisis" was the first and only album i have paid for and disliked, the act of purchasing an album usually enforces the buyer to do their best to like their purchase.

but "crisis what crisis" sucked and forever after i ignored supertramp.

now with hindsight i realise that i replaced them with a surrogate band.

i was obssessed with the New Zealand band split enz (which led to crowded house), their early stuff is remarkably like supertramp but with a sense of humour and humility.

anyway i forgive supertramp for "crisis what crisis" maybe i will brave "breakfast in america"

The new 10 minute Bowie song 'Blackstar'. I think it's mindblowing incredible.

Really reminds of Scott Walker - which is partly why I like it I guess.

took me a couple of goes to listen and watch all the way through. but having now watched the video in it's entirety i love it, best thing Bowie has done in ages. the sax reminds me of Van Der Graaf Generator and towards the ends i can hear the influence of the residents.

prompted by nick's post, i looked out some bauhaus, i have lost count of the amount of times i saw them live, my friend wrote a fanzine, so we got on the guest-list to a lot of gigs and got to meet the band many times.

i was a total fan in the early days, but in the end i became disillusioned with them. david jay the bass guitarist was one of the nicest guys i ever met and totally for the music, but the others just seemed to have dollar signs in their eyes and did what ever the record company asked.

anyway to the guid aild days.

My son bought me an album by Disturbed.  I hadn't heard much by them before  - and had thought that they might be a bit too metal even for a sad old rocker like me.  They are indeed seriously metal but pretty damn good with it, but this version of Sound of Silence I found to be really stunning.

So... 30 years ago, a pedal steel guitarist in Denver gave me a mix tape that changed my life. It was a bunch of music from around Africa. The music catalyzed my idle curiosity about Africa and turned it into, "Hell yes I'm going there."

One of the songs on the mix tape was "Maloba D'Amour;" a wonderful cover of Buddy Holly's "Words of Love." I tried once or twice over the years to find the artist or the song online. Today, inspired by the 50's Rock & Roll Fest (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?action=festival;sa=FiftiesFest), I tried again and...


Unfortunately, there is not a YouTube video or any (legal) way to hear the song online for free, but you can get the idea from the song preview on Amazon.com.

I don't often get excited about modern music (post-80s), but I just love this 2012 song by P!nk. Apparently, it's about the loss of a child (see http://pink.wikia.com/wiki/Beam_Me_Up (http://pink.wikia.com/wiki/Beam_Me_Up)). Great song, great lyrics, and what a voice!

Blimey that is good.  And a 'mammoth' tour next year that comes near me (and will be his homecoming gig since he's a Cardiff boy).  Good spot.

My wife has a story every time he comes on the tele how Green Door was the first song she liked, at age three...

I have been really getting into English folk music lately. Spent a melancholy weekend watching the news about the hurricane and listening to vast amounts of Tim Hardin, Nick Drake, and John Martyn.

I haven't had a song hit me this hard in a while. Even sent John an email with something akin to, "I don't know how I'll fake my way through this, but we must cover this song!"

And I hate exclamation points. Really...if you look back at all my posts, I don't even think you'll find a handful.  Go ahead...  I double-dog dare you.

This is where my head is at these days. So good.

Music begins around :40. He gets cooking after the first verse and chorus.

I used to have John Martyn's Solid Air album on cassette when I was at college 30 years ago... bizarrely, the whole album was on one side of the tape & the other side was blank. This was how the album was sold. How odd!

I wasn't familiar with this song, but you've re-kindled my interest in his music by posting this - can't wait to hear you & Lurker tackle it... go on, you know you want to :)

i watched an interview Peter Hammill (my all-time hero) gave about the new album and was shocked to see how old he looked but also pleased to see the spark is still in his eye and that his mind was still kean; sharp as a razor. my all time favourite band still producing the goods.

A guitarist friend of mine, many years ago, was a tone hound. His aim was to get a guitar tone that was that good, that he could get on stage, say "Listen to my tone", play one note and take a bow. This is as close as I can image that tone would be  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So, Listen to his tone, it is pure joy .....

He's quite some guitarist as well, and singers don't come much better than she ....

That's Greg Howe playing for Maragold, nice find Bruno I've never heard this before. Man he had a great run in the late 80's and 90's with some cool instrumental stuff. I remember this one (this is full album), I like how he mixes different genres together and yes he has a distinguished tone.

I went to see Thomas Dolby in 1984 at the Hacienda in Manchester (around the time of Hyperactive).  I always remember just before the gig they dimmed the lights and there was just this myriad of twinkling LED's on stage from all the tech, one of the most impressive things I've seen at a concert.

Anyway, this week I got hold of his Greatest Hits CD and was playing it on the way into work this morning.

What with the passing of John Wetton, I've been on a bit of a binge - having got the UK albums on CD. Then I was reading about John, and the re-union of the original members of ASIA. Well I ordered XXX (recorded 2013), just curious to have a listen. Got the CD, and it wouldn't play on the mac, so went to the car to see if it played there. It did! BAM, complete magic, there it was, the first two ASIA albums - it needed all 4 of them to get back together. All the buttons that they pressed way back then, well they are pressing them again in spades.

Listened to the whole album in the car - and then went for a drive to listen to it again. Take it, that is very rare for me. Its been playing constantly since then. And as all proper ASIA, its great on first listen, and then get better and better and better. Well, this track is prophetic. It is a simply wonderful track .... if you loved ASIA 1 and 2 - take a listen.

The whole band is on fire, and Wetton's vocals - well what can I say....

A new Deep Purple album out next month. I saw a documentary, over the weekend, about it's making. To me it sounds like classic DP - an album of the like they haven't released in years.

Here's a taster:

Guthrie is probably the greatest living guitarist around at the moment imo - I'm convinced there is no style that he cannot play. Somebody asked me at work a few months back who I thought was the best, and I said Guthrie. He used to write for the Guitarist magazine - and does loads of teaching and demo's on youtube. But he's not a big name, although played in Asia for a while. He solo album Erotic Cakes is very good, although can be a little hard going. He did a talk/demo in my local music store last year, which I couldn't go to - but have seen him play live, and is simply an awesome player.

Great find. Ian Dury was a brilliant artist. And I think Norman Watt-Roy is one of the best bass players ever. I especially love his playing in "Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick". Awesome!

I've got the first two albums on vinyl. Haven't heard much of the later stuff. I should probably check it out. I was looking at their discography on Wikipedia and was surprised by how many albums they've released.

The drummer in that video is Dylan Howe who is the son of Steve Howe of Yes fame.

I have just been getting into them recently. Those Gabriel-type vocals really comes through. Some interesting bits musically as well. That's one of the nice things about prog. If you're not connecting with a musical passage, chances are they'll be on to something else in a minute or so.

I'm absolutely loving this - featuring Ellot Yamin on vox from American Idol with Daughtry days. It seems like a real low key production, not than many views - but this is smoking' hot. Rock on Elliot!

I'm glad they had the credits in the cover version (Beth and Joe.) I thought that was Reese Wynans and sure enough.  I agree that this is a cool song and a cool cover. Now off to listen to Johnny Winter again. (And I wonder if Tommy Shannon is the bassist on this version? to connect some whose playing what dots. It looks like him in the splash photo.)

I managed to get into the attic recently - Lord, scary, - while there I grabbed a handful of 7" vinyl, and in light of Hilary's question about Video Editing Software,
I used my Serif MoviePlus 5 to clod this together while I was listening away. I think we have to agree that ALL this technology has a learning curve.
And while looking on the Serif website for possible updates to the product, I read that Serif no longer makes a movie-making software. Poo.
I bought two instructional books along with this software and both are a few hundred pages long, it does mention 'PiP', but hey, I reckon life might be too short!
Good luck Hils.   8)

I discover
John Wright is a musician, singer and researcher born in England in 1939 and died on 4 September 2013.

Singer, harmonica player, violinist and jew's harp player, he settled in Paris in the 1960s, where he took part with Catherine Perrier in the launch of the folk movement of the 1960s and 1970s by founding the first French folk-club, "Le Bourdon ".

He participated in the Compagnie Maître Guillaume, as a medieval musician, and in 1988 he distinguished himself in "Tempore et Mesura", creation of Ris et Danceries directed by Francine Lancelot. He immersed himself in the reconstruction of medieval musical instruments. He has also conducted some in-depth research in the field of ethnomusicology, in particular onimbards and cordophones of the Baltic countries (Jouhikko...)

I received an early download from the band a couple of days ago and the signed CD in the mail yesterday of the new album from The Bottle Rockets called Bit Logic. It's a big of a departure for the band but it's still them. They've been playing I-70 Blues and LoFi at their concerts this past year or so and I enjoy both songs quite a bit. Anyone who's passed through Missouri will completely understand. Heck, if you've ever been stuck in traffic you can relate.

Pierre Bensusan, guitarist, French singer, has been playing DADGAD tuning exclusively since the 70s.
He is the guitarist who has always impressed me the most since that time
He is a "craftsman" of music who tours in all the United States, England, Ireland, Germany, Japan, Italy, Australia etc... and as the biblical expression says "no one is prophet in his country"... he is probably better known abroad than in France
This song is a setting to music of one of Victor Hugo's most beautiful and famous poems "Tomorrow at dawn"
to give you an idea of its guitaristic quality, one of these compositions "Altiplanos" has been taken up by one of the greatest (and most beautiful classical guitarist today Ana Vidovic


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2a_yfT84KQ

in scroll the words of Victor Hugo poeme and translation

Demain, dès l'aube, à l'heure où blanchit la campagne,
Je partirai. Vois-tu, je sais que tu m'attends.
J'irai par la forêt, j'irai par la montagne.
Je ne puis demeurer loin de toi plus longtemps.

Je marcherai les yeux fixés sur mes pensées,
Sans rien voir au dehors, sans entendre aucun bruit,
Seul, inconnu, le dos courbé, les mains croisées,
Triste, et le jour pour moi sera comme la nuit.

Je ne regarderai ni l'or du soir qui tombe,
Ni les voiles au loin descendant vers Harfleur,
Et quand j'arriverai, je mettrai sur ta tombe
Un bouquet de houx vert et de bruyère en fleur.

3 septembre 1847

translation

Tomorrow, at dawn, at a time when the countryside is whitening,
I will leave. You see, I know you're waiting for me.
I'll go through the forest, I'll go through the mountains.
I can no longer stay away from you.

I will walk with my eyes fixed on my thoughts,
Without seeing anything outside, without hearing any noise,
Alone, unknown, back bent, hands crossed,
Sad, and the day for me will be like the night.

I will not look at the falling evening gold,
Nor the sails in the distance going down to Harfleur,
And when I get there, I'll put on your grave
A bouquet of green holly and flowering heather.

Unbelievable! I didn't know Carole Kaye
CAROL KAYE THE BASS PLAYER! I didn't know this bass player who was at the origin of the bass riffs behind a number of nuggets ( Mission Impossible, Sonny And Cher, Good Vibrations) very recognized by the musicians (Quincy Jones, etc...) totally unknown to the public. She transformed basic riffs into memorable impulses without us knowing it.

All this talk lately, in Gear Lust, about making modifications and what's special about Telecaster guitars inspired me to take mine out of the case this morning and plug it in....just to reinforce what I already knew: They're great and versatile guitars for any style of music. Which caused me to look up Roy Buchanan on youtube playing Hey Joe. No frills just a Tele and a Fender Twin Reverb amp (or Super Reverb not sure) with the reverb cranked up in the hands of skilled player...One of the greats!

Enjoy,

Stumbled across this in a youtube playlist last night while working on a new (to me) guitar amp - it sounded vaguely familiar, until I heard the chorus and remembered it got some radio play back in my tween years:

I loved his singing and his songs... some of his best stuff he did late in his life...plus his band Asia demonstrates his ability to keep 3 other fantastic musicians employed and interested for extended periods of time... and Asia is in my top 5 favorite bands largely on the strength of 5 albums plus live work....
RIP sir....until I meet you in heaven.

 La note du diable !  (Diabolus in musica ), in english The Devil's note

Do you know my note of the devil, a humorous expliacation taken from a French TV series "Kamelot" by Alexandre Astier.

Alexandre Astier is a French scriptwriter, actor, composer and an extraordinary guy!
Unfortunately for the English speaking friends it is in farnçais and with a lot of agot but by looking and listening you will understand that what was called the note of the devil in the Middle Ages is the diminished fifth!

when the singer starts to sing I would say he's probably the best.

Quote from: my idol is Jahia on December 08, 2020, 10:01:24 AMwhen the singer starts to sing I would say he's probably the best.
but when the bass player starts I would say ah well no...he's the best...
and then when the drummer starts I'd say the best, maybe it's the drummer
Exactly my issue. I have been freaking out since Phoenix dropped on Spotify. I want to get it on vinyl. I don't think I've ever heard anything quite so complex and yet so instantly likeable. Its a mix of fusion, jazz, soul, gospel and rock. Un-friggin-believable. They are that good that its seamless. Jonah's vocals are a mix of Stevie and Michael J. And he hits some high notes that leaves people speechless. The drummer is fantastic - and I think defines the sound. The singer is a damn special keys player as well. But the bass player for me, well his grooves are off the chart. All these tracks are full blast in the car, and on a non-stop (dirty) loop.

Its been a long time since a band has done this to me .....

:) Yes, this singer has an incredible range and an exceptional voice timbre.

QuoteBut the bass player for me, well his grooves are off the chart.
Yes the bass player is also a great virtuoso, even if I don't like his punk look.  :) :) , listen to his bass solo around 1mn58 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJP3mjQKWmY

QuoteThe drummer is fantastic -
yes one has the impression that it never makes a measurement identical to the previous one.

QuoteIts a mix of fusion, jazz, soul, gospel and rock
yes it's exactly this mix of style

In short, we agree dear Bruno ...it's been a long time since I've heard such exciting musicians...even if it's a style of music that I'll never be able to approach, not even in a dream!

I am always amazed on how good these guys are - they've been on my radar for quite a few years, and they are going from strength to strength - amazing.

IMO the best musicians on the scene, and all in one band!!!!

Damn, had to jump in and listen too...

Shit, this sounds like it could be the breakthrough band that I have been looking for to make people that only like pop music listen to real musicians... it starts off like pop music and then goes way off into prog / jazz fusion territory... I will make my daughter listen... my wife already said "ooh, that's good!"  :) :) :) :)

I'm glad I'm not alone at seeing this :-)

I've been listening to the loopsters since "Loopify" came out in 2014. They were clearly great muso's then - but they have just got better and better. This latest drop of tunes is almost dumbfounding. The "musician react" on youtube are great - but they all end up with no words, a huge smile on their face, and say they are off to practice. This is a joy to listen to, and for Jazz, none of this looses you. I've never heard music switch so many styles, so seamlessly and so well. None of the commercial music really excites me any more, perhaps some a little more than others, but not that much - but this is different! I cannot get enough. In dark times, this is a shining jewel. Well done Sweden.
B

Some more tracks of of the Phoenix EP, I love the fact they look like a real band, having real fun making music - there is real chemistry in this band. They are killing it and me!

This one rocks my world, but its Dirty Loops that are on fire.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDKecPtliGU


How did they get to gospel - I have no idea. However, this is probably my favorite track of theirs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rV9uCmlMQ1c


Their latest and possibly their best commercial track, or was it the previous one??? I don't know anymore, and listen for that high note

what a range this singer! what a phrasing! (which reminds a little Michael Jackson)

...and you can feel that they are having a lot of fun playing.

Nice one, Greeny - I hadn't heard this one before, although I seem to recall one or another of Billy Joel's hits having "Lennon-esque" backing vocals. This one definitely has got some of that Lennon DNA in it.

Farrell,  I don't know if you heard or not but Lou almost died several years ago from a brain tumor... he's had a rough go of it... He is one of my all time favorite rock voices and Foreigner was a favorite as well....so hearing this literally made me cry... likely because i realize the end of a favorite life chapter.... I think he sang this well, very well, but it's impossible to be the old Lou Gramm....

Thanks for posting this up Stephan. I knew Lou Gramm was out of commission for a while but didn't know that it was because of a brain tumor. I'm glad he recovered and can still sing. When I saw your song postings of Lou singing I thought I need to look up my favorite Foreigner song "Star Rider" and low and behold there it was in the next video you posted up! I saw Foreigner in concert in their hay day...what a voice...what a band! The cover band I played with in the late seventies and early eighties covered a few of their hits like Cold as Ice, Double Vision and Hot Blooded. It was a challenge to make them sound right but they were crowd pleasers no matter how we made them sound.

golly gee Farrell...that is cool...I think what really interests me the most about Foreigner looking back at if from this point is that the band was Brits and Americans...I would say it was quite a good marriage...ala Fleetwood Mac.....  Starrider is so amazing good....that whole first album really... there could be no outdoing that one....although they had bigger sales...the first to me will always be the best....

This one below here....this is the one I really love... He speaks of the longing of the heart for the oneness with another....as in "I long, I long, I long for you." 
My wife is from Brasil and they have a word Saudades.... which she the english word of miss, as in "I miss you" is not nearly a strong enough depiction...
so I think Johnny nailed the word Saudades the best I can understand in the song below.... "I long for you."   That is different than "I miss you."

about Pierre Bensusan

He is the most important guitarist in finguer picking style that I knew (I've been a fan since his first album in 1970, and I saw him 3 times on stage)
He plays and has developed in France the game exclusively in Open D modal DADGAD tuning.

He had to cancel his 2020 USA/Canada tour, because of the global pandemic that we all know unfortunately

He has a worldwide fame and (no one is a prophet in his country) he is more known in the USA, Canada, Australia, Germany, England, Ireland, Italy ... than in France.

He is preparing a tour in China ,

another important point: he is not a Pop star, he is a real guitar craftsman who, when he is not touring the world, does DADGAD guitar courses and workshops at home, in the country, in France.
When I did my physiotherapy training at the Centre de Brulés in Haiti, he was kind enough to preface my course!

If you want more informations about Pierre it's here :www.pierrebensusan.com

QuotePIERRE'S US & CANADA TOUR HAS BEEN CANCELLED
Hello,

It is with a heavy heart that I announced that with the exception of concerts throughout this coming weekend, I must cancel and postpone concert dates for the rest of this 2020 North American tour. The looming threat of Coronavirus spreading has caused many of the promoters to cancel these shows (or otherwise face an unbearable level of uncertainty and risk). I am also concerned for my safety, my fans, and the staff at the venues. I have already begun re-booking the tour for 2021 and you will be the first people to learn about it as concerts in your areas become announced.

I have worked for one year to build this 5-month tour which includes about 100 shows, to sync with the release of my new album "Azwan" and my new book "The Pierre Bensusan Guitar Collection" and  may I encourage you, fans and friends to purchase these new releases through my website at: www.pierrebensusan.com/azwan

From fans who have listened to « Azwan »:
"I've listened to your Azwan CD now 4x through and I must say that this is my favorite album of yours. I love the flow of the CD and the album has a special magic to it. The complex rhythms, and harmonic, and melodic movements and developments are matched with what sounds like simplicity and joy. I also love your vocals and chants and the other added instruments...... This is a masterpiece album!!" - T.M.

"Finally got to listen to the cd this evening and absolutely love it. The first piece had me in tears it's so beautiful as is the whole album. I rarely listen to a whole cd at once, but this one I did. It is a masterpiece in my humble opinion. It's emotional, delicate, playful and moving." - J.B.

With best regards, stay safe and an immense thank you for your support,
Pierre

Glad you enjoyed it, Farrell!

The heavy bass is what first grabbed me on this 'Message from the Country' album by The Move. Here's another great example (another Jeff Lynne song, with Roy Wood pounding out the bass):

Oh yes. The Move actually became Electric Light Orchestra (Jeff Lynne, Roy Wood, and drummer Bev Bevan formed the group). Roy Wood only stuck around for ELO's first album - here's another song he trades off vocals with Jeff Lynne (Wood also plays the bass and all the cellos on this track):

Philip Sayce  "Save Me From Myself" from his album  "Peace Machine"

If you like Stratocaster fuzzy hard rock, then this is for you.
As a matter of fact, my neighbours liked it so much, they threw a rock through my window so they could hear it better. :)

Da..yam Vancaad, Phillip Sayce can play that effing Strat! He's got Jimi's and Stevie's style but he puts his own twist to it. I checked out his live stuff and I've never seen a guitar player hit so many notes with just one strum across all six strings.......a real modern player keeping the electric blues alive!

Tommy Emmanuel is internationally acclaimed as one of the very best acoustic guitar players alive.
Billy Strings is an up and coming mostly bluegrass/newgrass picker...a savant?
Here is a mind blowing jam between the two. Unconscious playing....

Yes Pine incredible velocity of this two great guitarists...

but the high velocity has always left me a bit insensitive (maybe because I can't do it  ;D ;D ;D).
...and I prefer the slow and expressive play as on the following video at your choice on BB King's You tube watch BB King's facial expression around 5mn19 each musical phrase and expressed differently on his face!

Awesome. Great way to give the crowd a taste of their favourites even if they don't all make it to the set list.

When I was in high school there was a band that would always play "Bastille Day" and "Red Barchetta" at our assemblies. I wasn't really into Rush besides "Tom Sawyer" and "Workin Man" but looking back I can now appreciate it what it took for those guys to learn those songs.

I graduated HS in 1978... and I had not really become "Rush Aware" yet... I knew they existed but hadn't really listened yet... my dad was a member of columbia house and he bought a 8 track called "A Farewell to Kings".... he thought it was a tribute to elvis...haha.... well he gave it to me... and I really didn't listen to it... I taped over the holes and recorded Pablo Cruise over the top of it....sacrilege... my gosh what was I thinking.... later, some years later, I was introduced to 2112 and then I started a journey of listening to every Rush album they ever did (I did not hear much after "Test For Echo").... I loved every bit of it... and I would say my favorite era is the 80s... I just love the synths with the hard rock...

I think possibly this 17 minutes of Rush would be hard to top.... and to me Xanadu is a bridge connecting their older style to their 80's style...and the drumming is unbelievable...along with the composition and delivery... It's unfortunate I never got to see this band because I have probably been to 200 concerts in my life.... but oh well...at least we have these great video recordings....

bloody hell....ain't nobody on the planet that can top that....maybe possibly you could get a few individual performances better but there is no group that can top that...maybe equal it...wow...just wow... and to be very honest this reminded me of Kansas on steroids....even the drummer is a bit more like Phil Ehart than Neil Peart (to me)....but there is a segment toward the end the drumming goes to another level....omgosh.... everything on this is perfect.....blistering perfection....thanks for posting this...I gotta hear more

I just found this isolated drum video of Portnoy with Liquid Tension experiment.  There are a clearly a few cuts in the footage - but blimey!

I've seen him loads of times with Dream theater and Flying colours and , trust me, he can cut it live.

One of my great Songcrafters disappointments is that I never covered "Valley Girl" with Geir – as we plotted to do for the 2010 Zappafest (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?action=festival;sa=ZappaFest). My stepdaughter was going to do the vocals. She was just on the cusp of the age where she would be embarrassed to do such a thing with me. Time passed, and she crossed over the threshold.

I now have another adopted daughter in my life, 9 years old; young enough that she still loves doing things with me. English is not her first language, but that might make it all the more charming. I may have discovered the subconscious motivations for many life decisions over the past 11 years.

It's VERY trippy. I used to listen to this a lot. But not as much as his Sketches of Spain album.

it's nice! Robben Ford has made since the beginning of the universal confinements some little "no talking" video series with guitar shots...when you're not an english speaker like me you can learn while listening and watching

I think there are about thirty shots on different guitars and it's possible to jam with Robben Ford, this guy seems nice and quite pedago

I've been listening to a lot of Bowie lately, 70's Bowie with Mick Ronson. I love his guitar playing style, one of my favourite guitarists. Today I've been listening to " the man who sold the world" Album. Here's a link on YouTube. :)

Early 70's Zamrock - Pysch rock from Zambia. They are imitating UK / USA bands but bringing their own brilliant rhythmic stylings.

This band - Witch - are particularly cool. The drumming and bass alone are mindblowing.

Ken (Hardlock) with whom I am currently working to do a better version of Isn't it a Pity, introduced me to Peter Frampton: unbelievable I didn't know this guitarist with a very fine playing

...et quand je lis dans sa biographie sur WIKI
His early influences were Cliff Richard & the Shadows (featuring guitarist Hank Marvin) and American rockers Buddy Holly and Eddie Cochran and later the Ventures, Jimi Hendrix and the Beatles. His father introduced him to the recordings of Belgian gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt.[6][9]
...and when I read in his biography on WIKI
I tell myself that we must be of the same generation ;D

his latest blues cover record in 2019 is fascinating!

I found this intriguing and amusing and actually kind of funny...the reasons are first there are all these great musicians vying for a bit of time on the big stage.  The bass player seems like he's trying to get noticed... then what really cracks me up is the great George Harrison walks to the mic and starts singing...as the song goes along he constantly has to adjust the mic as it slowly turns away from him over and over (likely from the stage moving from all the musicians "rocking", and a sound tech who forgot to make sure the mic holder was tight.)....still George remains calm...
then there's Eric Clapton playing all the leads until towards the end when George and Eric start dueling...and they are kind of doing almost a sort of dance off as they both admire each others chops...I'd love to know what they are thinking just then...
I love this song, always have but I like to hear it slower...that was just so much energy up there with all those superstars..

A mainstream one, but I've been giving Iron Maiden's new album a spin, the first time I've properly tried to get back into them since being turned off hard by The Final Frontier (2010) and never caring for The Book of Souls (2015).


It's pretty good! A bit repetitive and plodding in areas which I feel lets the overall album flow down, but in general I do prefer modern Maiden's dabbling with darker heavy prog than trying to simply try to recapture the old days. I also like that given Bruce's age and presumably the effects of tongue cancer his voice has changed, but they've wisely utilised this change of style in some tracks and used his new gruffer low range, rather than trying to pretend it hasn't happened.


I do dig bands that embrace their years.

I still prefer the Dance of Death (2003)/A Matter of Life and Death (2006) though for albums that are tighter, but there's no denying there's been some amazing tracks in the newest releases.

Max Webster was very popular in Toronto in the 1970s. They often opened for Rush. I've seen them several times. Their very weird lyrics were written by Pye Dubois (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pye_Dubois) who was not officially a member of the band but collaborated with them on most of their recordings providing the lyrics. He was also credited as co-writer on several Rush songs including Tom Sawyer, Force Ten, and Test for Echo. Max Webster's guitarist and singer, Kim Mitchell (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Mitchell), went on to have a successful solo career. And he was a DJ for a popular Toronto classic rock radio station from 2004 to 2015.

Some of my favourite Max Webster songs are "Oh War! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InU19sRLj7Q)", "In Context of the Moon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G0-NU5Hin4)", and "Gravity (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N044pnT0Jnc)", all from their 1977 album "High Class in Borrowed Shoes". And "Toronto Tontos" from their debut album.

They played the Hammersmith Odeon in 1979 on May 4th (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1979-05-04-london), May 5th (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1979-05-05-london), May 6th (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1979-05-06-london) and May 7th (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1979-05-07-london) supporting Rush on their "Hemispheres" tour. They were also scheduled to play the Hammersmith Odeon on Jan 22, 1981 (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1981-01-22-london) headlining on their own "Universal Juveniles" tour, but the show was cancelled due to poor ticket sales. So I think you must have seen them in May 1979 opening for Rush. Saga did play the Hammersmith Odeon (https://www.setlist.fm/search?query=saga+hammersmith+odeon) in 1980, 1983, and 1986 but not with Max Webster.

I saw Max Webster at their first theatre gig June 25th, 1975 (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1975-06-25-toronto) at Massey Hall in Toronto supporting Rush on their "Fly By Night" tour. That was a great show by Rush. Max Webster was good too, though I wasn't familiar with their music then as their debut album wasn't released till 1976 and I didn't buy my first Max Webster album till 1977 ("High Class in Borrowed Shoes").

I saw them again June 12, 1976 (https://www.maxwebsterlive.ca/1976-06-12-toronto) at Massey hall opening for Rush on their "2112" tour. Another great performance by Rush, which was recorded for their "All The World's a Stage (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_the_World%27s_a_Stage_(album))" album. And by this time, I'd heard some of Max Webster's music on the radio so I think I had a better appreciation of their performance than I did the year before. They put on a very good show.

And I saw them April 3, 1979 (https://maxwebsterlive.ca/1979-04-03-mississauga) at The Blind Duck pub in the University of Toronto's Erindale campus in Mississauga. Our table was only a few yards from the front of the stage.

You are absolutely right 64 - it was the Rush concert at Hammersmith on Saturday 5th May 1979.  The attached picture of the ticket shows it was £3.50 - those were the days!  Although I can't recall what I was earning back then!  (What a sad person I am for keeping the tickets).

I remember enjoying the Max Webster set - and Rush were pretty good too.

Not at all. I kept all my ticket stubs too. I also kept newspaper clippings of some of the concerts that I saw.

At the Hammersmith? I can't find that on Setlist.fm (https://www.setlist.fm/) or Concert Archives (https://www.concertarchives.org/), but there was a Saga concert at the Hammersmith on Thurs, Nov 10, 1983 (https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/saga/1983/hammersmith-odeon-london-england-53d31771.html). Maybe Setlist.fm has got the date wrong, or maybe Saga played two consecutive nights and Setlist.fm only shows the second night.

So this is pretty good... sort of dark prog/metal mixed with Kate Bush type vocals, maybe a touch of King Diamond in there too.

Yes It was at the Hammersmith odeon and the date stamped on the rear says Wednesday 9th November - although interestingly there is also a very faint stamp saying "Thursday 10" so maybe the date was changed before I bought the ticket.  Perhaps the promoter was too mean to reprint the ticket.  That seems quite likely, now I think about it.

You're on All The World's A Stage???! Very cool.

After reading that, I spent quite a bit of time seeing if I could find which of the three nights each of the songs came from. They taped all three, but everyone's pretty quiet about what got used. I did find that Neil Peart said he got very frustrated with how the gigs were going, and he had some anger that fed into his playing on the 13th... and they were very pleased to find that came through on the tapes when they were listening back. Kind of points to the 13th being the "good night" of the three sets of tapes... but I'd surprised if the whole thing came from one night. I understand (from that wiki) that some of the other performances made their way onto the 2112 40th Anniversary - but I've not collected those (not true! I've got the Farewell To Kings one because it has the 1978 Hammersmith Odeon gig).

I knew of Max Webster back in the late 70s - and I seem to recall we were listening to some of their stuff, I think one of the guys in our crowd was into them. But I only found out it was a band name rather than an individual's name recently, while reading Martin Poppoff's three volume about Rush (Anthem, Limelight, Driven). I'd been thinking I need to check them (Max Webster) out now.

Yes, I was in the audience when some of the songs for All The World's a Stage were recorded. I don't know which songs on the album were recorded on the 12th but I assume that some of them must have been. They recorded all three nights and would have chosen the best takes of each song for the album. So there's probably some from each of the three nights.

I've seen Rush several times. The first time was in 1974 when they played at my high school (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=3332.msg32375#msg32375). I'd never heard of them prior to that performance but they were great and I've been a fan ever since.

Title: Re: What are you listening to right now?
Post by: AndyR on November 10, 2021, 04:48:51 AM
That is SO cool 64!

I'd heard of them but didn't know much about them back then. This is 1978/9 or so. We had a guy at school (who had access to his Dad's audio gear so he could create LOUD cassettes for us) who was absolutely MAD for them and would never shut up. He went to the 79 gigs in London, sleeping rough (we were Bristol). He was only 16 or so. He got to meet them on their tour bus. He bought a Ric 4001 even though he couldn't play. Boy did we take the micky out of him.

A couple of years later, 83 I think, I bought Archives (first three albums in a gatefold) and All The Worlds A Stage on the same day. The drummer in the band I was in at the time was a HUGE Neil Peart fan and would never shut up. I found these albums on sale, and thought I better check them out. Liked what they were doing, found the short songs more accessible. Found them a bit "squeaky" over all. Actually preferred the older stuff to Spirit of Radio and the Moving Pictures stuff that was going on. Then they went even more "synth" and I paid little attention - a bassist I know had Hold Your Fire and we thought that was cool. I bought Presto, which I still love, but didn't listen to much.

Years later, I found Counterparts in the library. I borrowed it and went "WHOA!"

"It" didn't kick in until around 2009/10 probably.

Sometime around then I thought, "OK, I got that cut down version of 2112 on All The World's... what was all the fuss actually about?" ... so I ordered 2112 on CD. That did it. Within weeks I had EVERYTHING.

There was a period of a couple of years when ALL I listened to was Rush. I had all the studio albums on my personal stereo and I listened to the whole lot on repeat during my commute (1 hour each way) every single day for two years. I bought Clockwork Angels the day it came out. I love the old stuff, the middle stuff, the end stuff. I'm not convinced they needed to bother with the remix of Vapor Trails, but I love both versions. I've got Geddy's Big, Beautiful, Book of Bass.

But I never got to see them. Mrs R did point out they were on sale during the big listening period. But I thought they'd be old and, well, you know... Of course, I've got all the DVDs now, and I can see how wrong I was...

If, at the time, I'd been making her listen to them too, she'd have made us go. As it is, she's heard them now and likes them almost as much as I do. We often have Rush playing all night while we sleep. We both find it relaxing (we tried Roxy Music last night. We both went "NO!" And she suggested Rush instead) ... and if you can't sleep it gives you something to listen to in an engaged way that then drifts you back to sleep.

ANYWAYS - I'd never put 2 and 2 together and connected you up with Rush in my mind.
Yep, BIG fan here, even if I was a bit late to the party.

Well, I grew up around Toronto where it seems like nearly all male rock fans are huge Rush fans. They don't seem to be as popular with the ladies, so it's great that Mrs. R. likes them too. In the amateur bands I was in when I was younger, we covered lots of Rush songs. "Fly by Night", "Beneath, Between and Behind", "Bastille Day", "No One at the Bridge" & "Bacchus Plateau" (both from "The Fountain of Lamneth" on Caress of Steel), and "Closer to the Heart". They were great fun to play. The only trouble we had was that nobody wanted to attempt the vocals. :) So we usually just played the songs without any vocals. We weren't performing to an audience; it was just our weekend jams, so we enjoyed it even without vocals.

My favourite period is the first five albums (up to and including A Farewell to Kings). I have them all on vinyl except 2112 which I bought on cassette for some reason - I wish I'd bought it on vinyl instead. After those albums, I didn't buy as many. I bought Power Windows on vinyl. And I bought "Hold Your Fire", "Roll The Bones", and "Counterparts" on CD. I love "Stick It Out" from Counterparts. It's got such a great riff and I love those dissonant-sounding chords (not sure what the chord names are), as well as the feedback at the beginning and the whammy-bar-rich guitar solo.

This song is so good. I'd somehow never heard of them – and I found out they opened for Jimi Hendrix in 1967. I'm going to have to find out more.

Hear me out...

My kid is obsessed with this song – because she got this doll set for Christmas.

It's a really well-made pop punk song. The songwriters hired to write this earned every penny they were paid for their souls. The chorus is catchy; I wish I'd written it. And check out the punk guitar solo at 1:42, how the song modulates during the solo, and modulates again before the last verse. Perfection.


And of course the doll company, those devils, they devised a doll set that even a fashion-hating, punk-era dad like me would hold his nose and buy for a little girl pleading for an LOL doll.

Fuck you, MGA Entertainment, Inc. You took my money.

I think she loves me. In an email it said, "I love you Geir."
I'm not good at English, so I hope I'm not mistaken.
I could have found an old woman here at home.
But as I got older, I was afraid I would be late.
I went to the pub, where I drank beer.
But the ones I find there are as old as myself.
Then there are a lot of beers with her I found online in from Thailand. Jaa ..

I think she loves me. In an email it said, "I love you Geir."
I'm not good at English, so I hope I'm not mistaken.
"I look forward to seeing you, can not wait, I love you Geir."
"I know I'm the right one, you must not delete this, greetings Geir."

I know people say, "This is a terrible thing, she's too young."
But Brit who talks the most, yes, she looks like a horse, she's too heavy.
Maybe I've started to get more picky with age.
A little nice dark one, which is long haired.
This is what girls look like down in Thailand. Yes..

Saw JD Simo last night. Can't tell you how long it's been since I saw a way too loud, kick ass rock and roll. It was glorious. Here he is with Tommy Emanuel on electric covering The Beatles by way of Joe Cocker.

ah yes Blooby.  That is proper right there.  The tones and the playing and the vocals are superb.  The mix is great.  What I really love is the drums and the bass player.  This is tight as all heck.  It's like Frampton, Townsend, Clapton, and Ralphs all morphed into 2 people one of which gotta little Cocker in him.  This is about as good as it gets.

I'm triggered by these two songs. Reminds me of the failure of my first marriage.

Me: [Desperately] "Love me!!!"

Yowch! Well, I guess we've all been there at one time or another. The way you compared it got a chuckle out of me. :)

I had first heard only 'Bedazzled', back in the late 80s on a psychedelic compilation a friend of mine had. Drawn in by the old-school flanging in the song and its call-and-response vocal style, and then got really hooked with the "you fill me with inertia" line.

Until I saw the film a few years ago, I didn't even know that it was a companion piece to 'Love Me', or that both songs were written by Dudley Moore. If you ever get a chance to see it, it's a funny little film (a re-telling of the Faust story). Also stars the lovely Racquel Welch...ahem.  8)

I make these mixes that have 30 or so songs apiece. My last one starts with some acoustic blues, goes through some Janis Ian, then lives with quite a bit of Texas blues & rock and roll. I ended it with "Oh I Wept" by Free and then this. Don't even know where I found this (maybe closing credits of a movie?). I cannot articulate why this song gets me. I would say the only music I listen to even remotely like this might be some early Seal. I think my friends who request these mixes may question my state after hearing this. Such is life.

On Andy's reco!  Very grate song and a cute tushtoboot!  What is not to love!

I don't dig her videos so much, but the records, WOW!
(actually the videos thing applies to nearly everyone for me)
And live.

I had all her albums since a month or two after the first one, "Lungs", was released (I think I saw her on Later With Jools and thought "oh my god, I can listen to this!").

We liked the music, but it's live that really convinced me.
I saw something from the BBC that was filmed when "Ceremonials" came out - can't find it anymore.

We also saw her Glastonbury set on the tv a few years later (she replaced the Foo Fighters when he broke his leg, there was uproar she was given a headline slot, and she KILLED it).

Then she announced a tour for How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful and I went to a gig for the first time in YEARS.
In fact, I went to 3 in one week ;D

Here's one of the Glasto tracks:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDXkD4l0ZBE

It's the first track on How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful.

My favourite album is probably still the second one "Ceremonials". I had it on pre-order and it arrived the day it was released. I put it on and I was in tears it was so amazing. The first three tracks are stunning (she used the 3rd, What The Water Gave Me, as her set-opener for the How Big tour) - try to listen to them without the videos... she paints HUGE pictures in your head... what she puts in the videos feels a bit distracting to me.

Last one...

This is the set opener from Lollapalooza 2016.
This is roughly what we saw at Ally Pally, except she had a white trouser suit with a blue blouse.

We sang and jumped and waved our arms along with all the young peeps (and we were in the front row ;D)

It was like seeing Queen back in the olden days.

(In fact, apparently, she says, that when she got given the Glastonbury headline slot with just a couple of weeks to go she was "Yessss... oh f**k... wtf do I do?", and Grohl said to her "watch live videos of Freddie Mercury and Queen" - and that's how they turned into a "stadium act").

This band was one of my favorite band in the year 2000's,  they took a break/hiatus of more than 10 years, now they are back.
Steven Wilson had a solo career during that time, but for me , it was never has good as PT.

In recognition of all the recent Stooges covers (and bumps) plus StephenM's comment noting some sonic similarity to The Cars, here's a version of Iggy Pop's 'Funtime' (from his 'The Idiot' album) done by The Cars around the time of their 'Shake It Up' sessions.

Yes, that's Benjamin Orr on lead vocal. Apparently, after hearing this one Iggy told the late Mr. Orr "You sound more like me than me!"

This song is so brilliant. It paints such a picture of weakness and fragility. The lyrics and delivery are of a man trying to flex his power and rage to get what he wants, even as he senses his own powerlessness, and the near indifference of the woman he wishes to control.

Judie Tzuke

Woah!!!

Anyone else have fond memories of her in the late 70s?

I had "Welcome To The Cruise" and "Sports Car" on vinyl (and the live album).

I saw her live a couple of times. I had a long chat with her after one gig - I think it was her first UK headlining tour. I was local "crew" doing the get-out, and she recognised me from the audience.

I kinda went off what she was doing in the mid 80s.

The other day I decided to get her box set from 2018, Full Moon. It turns out she just kept going. And...

Omigoodness!

This one was her big hit from the first album (although I preferred others, check out For You, and Bring the Rain, and the title track), but blow me down, her post 80s stuff is RIGHT UP THERE. Still don't like the sounds on the 80s albums, but everything she's recorded is fabulous. Just finished listening to Wonderland from 1992 - I possibly prefer that to the first two... and I didn't even know it existed!!

But here's what she calls her "hit"

I'm listening to CDs, but this is the same recording.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdsG0KoqT6o

I know a fair bit of Handel's music. But I'd not heard Samson before.

This recording is in a box-set of Karl Richter's "Complete Recordings On Archiv Production and Deustche Grammophon" that I bought last December. I was a bit worried when I ordered it (100 discs, limited edition), but I absolutely adore the set since the moment it arrived.

Decided to give Samson a run this morning (at over 3 hours, it's a bit of a commitment if you want to listen to the whole thing! ;D ). About to start Act II.

I have often wondered if big stars get nervous.  One of Ted's songs got me thinking about Linda Ronstadt.  I found this song from the Mad Love album written by Neil Young that she did.  Listening to this just now made me think that she looks like a woman with an awful lot on her mind.  By this time in her career she was highly successful, a superstar, iconic artist.  She decided to completely flip script and go into a sort of punk, sort of new wave, sort of old fashioned rock and roll direction.  People thought she was nuts doing it.  Made a platinum album out of it too...
I had this record and listened to at least 100 times... I don't know why but watching this i got such a ache in my stomach.  Almost like this indescribable longing. She could do that to me and likely to millions.  what a talent!

Who remembers Michael Brewer & Tom Shipley? What about Lawrence Welk? Now, what do these two (uh three) have in common? Hold that thought. I recently watched a Documentary about The Carter & Cash Families musical contributions and of how Momma Maybelle Carter was a tremendous inspiration for many musician's around the world. Maybelle wanted to add Brewer & Shipley's song 'One toke over the Line' to the Carter Family setlist to play for a bunch pot-smoking college kids. She claims that she thought it was a 'Gospel' song because of the lyric "One toke over the line, sweet Jesus." Her grand daughter's advised her not to do it, but when they saw all those hippie kids give her a standing ovation when she walked onto the stage, they knew it wasn't a big deal after all.

So what does this have to do with Lawrence Welk? Well, I will post this link so you all can get a good laugh. Evidently, Welk's orchestra was all in on the joke and 'ol Larry hadn't a clue of what was happening. Oh, and evidently Maybelle might of had a hunch that the song was going to be a good move.

They were bloody good on Saturday.  I was too far away to catch any footage but thought I would share another song.   Apparently the oboe player died suddenly a few weeks ago of heart failure.  Only 52.

I was tempted to share "Roll Alabama roll" which was a fantastic performance but a far less than politically correct subject matter.  But I guess that's history and folk music for you.

Further to the message about the Galveston cover, on which Doug invited me to play a solo at the end
Ted and Stephen in their comments refer to a guitarist Steve Howe...? and I didn't know this guitarist (unbelievable)

I have one thing in common with him (and unfortunately the only one :( ) is that I like to switch from the fender telecaster to the classical nylon guitar,...or to the lap steel

And the lap steel Steve Howe did an amazing version of Bachiana Brasileira n°5, by Heitor Villa Lobos

That's a beautiful piece with Steve Howe and the chamber orchestra.

Apologies - but I'm still going through an English folk phase again.  This is Bellowhead tribute to the band member who died a couple of weeks ago - Paul Sartin.  The main vocal is a recording of him which they isolated and played/sang along to when I saw them last week.  It's a traditional West Country song and I found it quite moving.

So they had one recording session in 1967 (five songs), but released an album in 1990, and another one in 2000.

Quote from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Third_BardoThe Third Bardo only had one recording session, which yielded six tracks in all including "Rainbow Life" which was released as the b-side to "I'm Five Years Ahead of My Time".

I first heard this on a Nuggets collection in 1983 or 84. It was a game-changer for me at the time, and along with the Nuggets and later collections dedicated to 60s psych, several doors were subsequently opened.

it's like the Cars, Talking Heads and B52s had a mind meld and formed a band.... golly gee willickers this is really some slick stuff.... man alive...
It sounds like it could actually have sort of fit in right around 1976 when The Cars were just getting on the road big, Foreigner was a thing, Talking Heads just around the corner... that sax is so good... this is one really cool and very crazy band.... wow

ATL Delta Airlines to MIA
Accidentally went to Art Basel on this day
I'm a civilian spouse tagging long on my
wife's business trip
she's a Live Nation music business executive

9:00 AM a movie producer drinking mai tais in the pool
A couple French rent boys snorting llello off a boogie board
An instagram influencer floating on a raft
her publicist follows her trying not to get her iPad wet

I'm sp glad I'm on the outside looking in
cause none of this ends well
It's like a dumpster fire but the worst amongst us
emerge unscathed
For bread and circuses they'll let us choose
which of them will live
And who goes to the lions

An NFT artwork conference here at the hotel
they got a sitting US Congressman in on the grift
"Smart NFT contracts gonna reverse
systemic inequality" haha
While making Sandhill VC firms a few trillion more

I'm so glad I'm on the outside looking in
cause none of this ends well
It's like a dumpster fire but the worst amongst us
emerge unscathed
For bread and circuses they'll let us choose
which of them will live
And who goes to the lions

The Devil is having drinks with agent from CAA
but he's gotta see what William Morris is willing to pay
A little taste of Gomorrah in Miami Beach
Never knew the end of the world was must watch tv

ATL Delta Airlines to MIA
Accidentally went to Art Basel on this day

(The video used looks like authentic late-mid-20th-century stop-action animation - and has nothing at all to do with the lyrical content. That is not so uncommon with youtube videos these days. The song itself is the thing...)

Bruno's birthday song (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=33274.0) got me a curious about Frank Turner – an artist I knew nothing about, other than the one song. The fact that Bruno is a big fan is already an endorsement.

Turner's Wikipedia entry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Turner) led me to this article in The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/nov/25/frank-turner-on-reconciling-with-his-trans-parent-miranda-is-a-really-nice-person-my-dad-wasnt), and then to this song.

A few months ago I was watching a drum demo video on Youtube, by a guy named Todd Sucherman. I had never heard of him before, but he was excellent. The description indicated that he was the drummer for 'Styx' for the last 27 years. Until that moment I didn't realize that they still existed. Seems they have been touring every year since 1996. I was never a big fan, but I remember liking some of their radio hits in the 70s and 80s.

To make a long story longer, They have also released a couple new albums in recent years (unusual for an old legacy band), 'The Mission' in 2017, and 'Crash of the Crown' in 2021. Both are excellent recordings, with a little taste of their early prog roots. This is Todd Sucherman recreating his drum performance for 'Red Storm' from 'The Mission'. Note that the verses are in 5/4, the choruses are in 6/8, and the first half of the instrumental is in 7/4, before changing to 6/8 to transition to the last chorus. Tommy Shaw and James Young are still wielding the axes for this band, and most of them have been there for at least 20 years. Their first album was released in 1972!

Frank,
I am glad I got to see this.  I have been a big STyx fan since even before Tommy Shaw was in the band.  I have seen them a number of times and a few times in the last 5 years.  Their original drummer and bass player were brothers.  He was excellent as well.  I have heard Todd play but never really got to focus on his work... just remembering that I thought he was fantastic in the band.  As fond of Styx as I am I don't really think of them as Styx anymore because of the removal of Dennis DeYoung from the band.  Styx could never be Styx with out him.  I generally am not a person that quits listening to bands when some one leaves (Tommy Shaw left, came back, there were bad feelings etc... it is a long story and a lot of he said/ he said)... and I didn't this time either but Styx could never write the music they did with Dennis DeYoung gone... Sure someone can live without their right arm... but how well? 
for me Styx is a top 5 US band all time... I realize this is only my opinion... but they are that big for me... and they probably work too much now.  I saw them a few years ago and Joan Jett I thought blew them away (and trust me I love Styx so that wasn't easy to admit)... but they looked tired to me... I did get a cool thing though... I got to shake hands with James Young./// that was cool

Stephen, it's good to see that Chuck still travels with them, and plays a few songs with them. I guess I can understand guys in their 60s and 70s losing a step. From the Youtube videos I've seen, they still have the talent, if not the energy level. Tommy is 69 and JY is 73 now!

I first heard Monte Montgomery about 10 years ago. Just ran across a video of his and started watching some again. One of the best acoustic players I've ever heard. Excellent singer/songwriter as well.

Check out 'Could've Loved You Forever', 'River' (great slide work), and his instrumental version of 'Little Wing', amongst others.

I've been listening to Kaleidoscope on youtube, the psychedelic band featuring the late David Lindley, when I ran across this gem that I had forgotten about: 'Nobody', featuring Larry Williams and Johnny 'Guitar' Watson and Kaleidoscope (they are doing the droney, Eastern-flavored music). A crazy mixture of 1950s rock'n'roll & blues with Larry Williams & Johnny Watson on vocals, and the psychedelic 1960s with Kaleidoscope's trippy musical backer.

I love quirky stuff like this:

Good stuff Paul, I actually visited the wrong band on you tube at first... the band name was Elephants Never Forget. Luckily they were not too bad either, but after a couple of songs I thought, hang on, is this really what Paul meant to publish. So actually slowing down to figure out properly I found the right band/music :)

Keith, thanks for posting this... wow... Wetton is my favorite musician!  So this was a thrill to see... I feel as if he only got better and better through the years, especially at writing songs that so many people could relate to.... Asia is a top 5 band for me, and their latest albums were so great.  But this was great.  The guitar player did very cool stuff and Bruford is controlled chaos.  The keyboard/violin I only became aware of since I have been on SC...
John Wettons bass playing on this was so good too... I do dig prog and this was even a bit more psychadelic prog to me.... twas a very cool thing... but this band never would have appealed to the masses..

Paul, I love Tull, almost the same way I love Kansas... but I am not as familiar with their catalog (I have heard all of Kansas stuff, many, many times)... there is no other performer I can think of like Ian Anderson.  He is so bizare.  I really dig his vocals alot and his antics.  Overall though this band is off the charts... certainly a prog band but to me they have roots in some very antiquated kind of music vibe.  Growing up I think the first song of their's I heard was "Bungle In The Jungle"... as time went on I started to listen to them more and more... I had Ian's solo work, "Walk Into Light" ... I love to listen to that still.
They do remind me of Kansas in every way except vocally quite different.  But the similarity is they do pretty much all sing, as does most of Kansas as well...

"You ain't no ape, your a trogolodyte".... this band is somewhat Talking Heads, somewhat Cars, somewhat Doors, somewhat 60's, somewhat The Smithereens, but mostly it's rockin chaos, somehow controlled by the most normal dude in the band, the drummer... can you imagine where all this could go with someone else on drums... this rocked my world man

Excellent... investigating further!

This is a dumb song made popular on TikTok. But it really resonates with me – although my version would be "My dad in 1955." My dad was part of the "silent generation," where it any able-bodied white guy with work ethic and a stable personality was set up to succeed in America. I don't think I was ever impressed with the shirts. I was the one with good shirts in 1985.

The sun goes down
The sky turns black
I can hardly wait for you
I can't believe the madness
In everything you do
I used to dream in black and white
Now I see the world in a different light
Your love colors, colors everything
Your love colors, colors everything
Your love colors, colors everything
Your love colors, colors everything
Oh oh
Now come in to me
Fill me and fill me
Show me your colors baby
Your love colors
I slept in fear
And woke in pain
Till you came in close to me
I was cold
Like frozen rain
Your kiss melted me
You speak your mind just like a child
Won't be defined by when you smile
Your love colors, colors everything
Your love colors, colors everything
Your love colors, colors everything
Your love colors, colors everything
Oh oh
Now come in to me
Fill me and fill me
Show me your colors baby
Your love colors
Your love colors everything
Your love colors everything
Your love colors everything
Your love colors everything

This is one of my all time favorite song by Chrissie Hynde and The Pretenders.  It proves a point about my music tastes... that is that usually my favorite songs of a band are not the critically acclaimed.  This song doesn't even show up in the top 20 of the band and yet it is my favorite not even close.... it just hits me right in my heart, right in my soul.  The lyrics, the vocal delivery, the music... it is so good... I would like to try and cover this but probably won't ... I would end up crying the whole time.

I've really been digging into Americana and alt.country pretty hard this year. Lots of new (to me) artists to listen to.

I think Bella White is probably my favorite. Just her voice and the (mostly) sparse arrangements that bring it out:

That's fantastic....I love stuff like this.......have you heard the latest album from Wilco.....Cruel Country......fantastic album.........one of the old dogs of the Alt.country scene is still putting out relevant, honest and beautiful music this late in their career is a real testament...and Jeff Tweedy's songwriting has never been stronger....

I have not. I liked early Wilco quite a bit but they sort of lost me for a while. Not that I didn't like them, necessarily. I'll be sure to check it out.

I am also looking forward to the new Son Volt tribute to Doug Sahm. I loved the Bottle Rockets album/tribute and John Horton (the current guitarist for Son Volt and previously with Bottle Rockets) says there is only one song that made it onto both albums. That's pretty cool. Kind of a Vol II of alt.country tributes to Doug Sahm who is criminally overlooked in my opinion.

So I play open mics at a small venue (there are 2 of them about 10 miles apart) in Statesville, NC.  A young local woman who used to play there when she first started out 6 years ago made the America's Got Talent national show.  Anyway, this was her performance.  I don't know her but they had a party there for her the other and she played.  They say the party lasted until 5am.  Anyway, she hitting the big time.  Good for her too...

anyway it is an interesting thing...

Great pick, Zoltan. Been a Chris Knox / Tall Dwarfs fan for a long time myself. Haven't heard this one in a while now.

Here's one of my faves of theirs (home recording gold):

I commented on Jeff Healey in a cover of a jazz standard (Pennies from Heaven), this Canadian singer-guitarist from Toronto, who died prematurely at the age of 40 as a result of a rare and serious illness that left him blind at the age of three.
He had an extraordinary facility for playing the guitar on his knees, which I think is unique, at least as far as I know.

Here he is in a wonderful cover of While my guitar

I saw Jack Bruce live once, with a "supergroup" – I wasn't even that into Jack Bruce. I mostly wanted to see a couple members of his band – Billy Cobham, and David Sancious. A really memorable concert!

If you're into 60's - 70's music and aren't familiar with Susan Christie... I'd recommend you to check out the Paint a Lady album. It's on Youtube in all its glory.

There are SO MANY great ones on that album, but one that stands for several reasons is the For the Love of a Soldier. The production is trippy (the artist herself calls her music as psychedelic folk) and i like the use of simplistic double stop riffing, use of wind instruments and the backing vocals that sound like they're run thru the leslie cabinets.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpQTo66JlPg

There's also an interesting spoken word type of a piece about a drug trip. With drums.

This is a very cool retro sound. I really like the production ideas in here such as the stops and the ups and downs of the music. The backing vocals do sound like they are being processed through a Leslie effect. Thanks for posting Zoltan! I'll check out more of her songs on youtube.

Had the radio playing in the background whilst dancing attendance to the folly of the Man-Cave – 'The packing everything away because I'm not lugging all this sh*t back to the attic', folly. And like Proust and his small cake with 50 pages of description attached, this song came on the radio and I'm suddenly back on holiday with my family in the 1960s and attending an afternoon disco for pre-teens at a holiday camp somewhere. Sheer golden bliss.  8)
