What are you streaming tonight?
Hey there @pokey77 I thought you weren’t into female singers?! ;-) Gillian Welch, indeed. The significant other of Dave Rawlings. Ever listened to any of The Dave Rawlings Machine? Sort of country but warped. The music seems more profound than the lyrics but maybe the lyrics are an insider thing that I just don’t get. Anyway, Nashville Obsolete and Friend of a Friend are worth checking out. Pretty certain GW does harmony vocals with him. String arrangements on one of those (Nashville Obsolete, I think) are superb. |
https://youtu.be/tc3-3FGChEs Free video stream tonight. The Disco Biscuits in Colorado. The Disco Biscuits are a jam band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The band consists of Allen Aucoin, Marc "Brownie" Brownstein, Jon "The Barber" Gutwillig, and Aron Magner. The band incorporates elements from a variety of musical genres with a base of electronic and rock. Join the fun tonight! |

@pokey77 - I just saw The Alarm a couple of weeks ago. Was hoping for a good show, because I love The Alarm, but my expectations were low because it's really only Mike Peters from the original band. It was Awesome! Great show, in a tiny theater that seats only 300. Everyone stood and sang through the whole show. Mike and the band, including Mike's wife Jules, were outstanding. I've loved The Alarm since I first heard 68 Guns back in the day. They did not disappoint and I will see them again when they come back. Heck, I might even travel to one of "The Gathering" shows. |
@uberwaltz. This is a great thread @uberwaltz . I just totally started over with a new system a few months ago (after 12 years) and my main source is now an Aurender. I’ve been having an incredibly fun time finding/discovering new music and catching up on old music as well. In Tidal, I’ve been browsing through the 12.5k+ Masters files there. Just trying whatever catches my eye. I’ve found some pretty incredible recordings and like not having to put a new CD in the player or even really think too much about what CD will be next. My music collection is huggee now! I’ll try to get my iPad out and contribute some titles or songs here. I do like that Alarm collection you listed. Just saw them in late August and it was a very good show indeed, I think even better than the year before at the same venue. |
@bdp24 - Great story. Not too many world renowned musicians from Cincinnati, except Adrian Belew. On the other hand, we do have more than our share of Audio Reviewers who write for the big Audiophile rags. BTW, have you listened to Robben Ford and the Blue Line? Wow, what a record. Great songs, great musicianship and a really good sounding CD. I'll need to look for it on vinyl. |
@uberwaltz and @reubent, I got to see Robben live many times when he was living in San Jose in the early 70’s. He and his brothers (Pat on drums, Mark on mouth harp) had moved down from upstate California, and were living in a house right by the corner of Stevens Creek Blvd. and Saratoga/Sunnyvale Road., about a mile from the house I grew up in. The guy who played bass in the band I was in my senior year of high school (Lou Bottini) was in the Ford band for a while, as was the singer/harp player I was in a band with a year after graduating (Gary Smith; his Up The Line album is great Chicago Blues). When Robben started playing around San Jose, all the local guitar players got their first up-close look at world-class talent, and realized they didn’t have it, a sobering realization. Robben eventually left for L.A., and was soon working with George Harrison, Joni Mitchell, and Miles Davis! |
