Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.
I listened to Trower songs: Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....
Then I pulled out "Gamma". I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....
Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?
lmfao... uberwaltz , same here, outside system too and did have the simaudio/B&W back here with the PC/work area. Got rid of that part though. Now it’s PC. *laffs Like minds :)
Mental. Thats why I have systems set up in three different rooms ... lol She can’t haunt all of them at the same time. But I did build her a pretty impressive ht rig so she is quite happy in the theater room. Of course I made sure my main rig can play louder if need be......
As far as what I’m playing, I just bought the 2018 remaster of The Beatles White Album. Only listened to a few tracks so far, but it’s been fun trying to pick out differences. Some subtle and some not.
I recapped my Denon DRA-1025RA last night and then safety checked it. So today I'm shoving and slamming absolutely everything I own on CD from '89 to '95 thru warehouse-find, boxed and original foam JBL LX44's. The Mac and B&Ws are in timeout. Living the glory days of Circuit City and J&R Music World. All on single tray Sony CDP-670. Any CD that got destroyed I'll try to find as Master on Tidal and push through as MQA through new DAC, oh well. My ears were better then, but currently testing the neighbors and house foundation. R.E.M., Police, Pixies, GnR, Depeche Mode, Cars, U2, Rush and Boston somehow slipping in there. Woohoo!
@boxer12, Just listened to The Trinity Session and I like it okay. Sweet Jane, Blue Moon Revisited and Misguided Angel are particularly good. Many of these songs are covers and they do a good job but they're own stuff on Lay It Down is really good.
One article I read says that Lay It Down is their first album where they are pretty much fully rock rather than alt country. Lay It Down has an alt country vibe so I'm not sure I agree.
Anyway, give Lay It Down a listen. So far, to me, its their best work.
I'm also a fan of Neko Case & have several of her recordings. The ones you mention above are the ones I've been listening to the most lately. Both are very good IMO
boxer12, I will admit that I have not given The Trinity Sessions a serious sit down listen and even my experience with a number of their other albums is cursory. I should have said that their other albums didn't initially grab me the way Lay It Down did. So I can't really comment.
I'll give it a listen tomorrow night and try to remember to comment.
And speaking of alt country female singers, listening to Neko Case:
I like a number of their other songs too but this is the only album that I really like as a whole.
I like her voice a lot but it is a bit one dimensional and does not seem as rich as someone like Natalie Merchant who has a similar voice but maybe more depth and range.
