Whats playing on your system today?
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?

ozzy, I felt bad about misleading you. I did a quick Wikipedia check on the AD/DC High Voltage. Looks like they originally released two different versions. One Australian version on LP with "Soul Stripper". The US of version is different and has different artwork as well. Looks like you can get it on CD through amazon on a remastered verion called AC/DC '74 Jailbreak. N |
This morning we're rocking the foundation. .......Listening to Corrosion of Conformity, "Deliverance". "Senor Limpo" and "Clean my wounds". https://youtu.be/yvsQsao1F88 https://youtu.be/7efYZ65aSRk They have a ton of media. So much music to listen to. Good times! N |
jafant, Cecil Taylor....I'm no expert on Jazz music or musicians. What I found of Cecil was mostly improv. It's really not something I would normally listen to. However I would never attempt to discount his abilities as a musician. Im sure there are others reading who are fans of Cecil. Thanks for the recommendation. Please keep posting your favs. N |
ghosthouse, I have DP In Rock on download. It's been a while since I've listened. Thanks! Also, with so much music being flooded onto the "Obscure bands" thread, thanks for giving me some direction as to a good starting point. That thread may be a little out of my wheelhouse ;^) radfrad, ZZ Top... great band. I have Tres Hombres. Agree with ghost, it is fantastic and recorded well, even on CD. (I remember my brother had the LP,wow!) I also have Degullo and like it quite a bit. They have so much more . I need to invest. And I love the cut "My heads in Mississippi". Who can forget ...."I was stumblin' through the parking lot, of an invisible seven eleven!" Should be on the "Favorite song Lyric" thread. I understand Billy has a new albumn out tnough I haven't heard it yet. ♪Thanks for keeping the thread Live everyone! ♬ Best regards, Nutty |
Nutty - this thread has gotten some legs so not sure if I'm repeating something already mentioned but if you like Deep Purple you probably already know their "In Rock". Sweet Child in Time is pretty memorable. Also to radfrad, been listening to ZZ Top off and on since 1973 or so. Over the years my appreciation for Tres Hombres has just grown. That is such a solid album. No fat. Nothin' but lean muscle. Really, really good...especially played LOUD. I posted these on the obscure bans thread but give a listen to The Standard: Swimmer, Albatross, or Wire Post to Wire (3 very good records by them), also Nada Surf - especially The Stars Are Indifferent to Astronomy or You Know Who You Are. The Standard is kind of emo/progressive. Nada Surf more indie rock/pop. Different than the blues-rock stuff that mostly gets talked about here (not saying anything is wrong with that). Later. |
Beth Hart and Joe Bonamossa, Don't explain.... Great vocalist on this collaboration. Beth Hart has some great solo material as well. Check her out. https://youtu.be/Yim-elDkkyA N |
Ok, do we have any Ana Popovic' fans in the house? She is an amazing guitarist. She is Serbian but they are a Tennessee based blues band. Lots of good material. Her "Ana Popovic' Live in Amsterdam" is recorded very well. Here is a sample. https://youtu.be/f49BQUJ7mN4 N |
Today some old some new. I listened to this CD earlier in the thread but I played it again today because of one particular song. On CD...AC/DC, High Voltage. The song is "Soul Stripper". Even if your not an AC/DC fan this is a great song. It's worth a listen. It has such a different groove that you might not expect. It has bongos, in the beginning of the song and some tambourine. https://youtu.be/6FpeX7JqdyI Bon Scott was in my opinion was irreplaceable. And Angus it a guitar hero, IMHO. Oh, and " Can I sit next to your girl" is great also. And just for the kix, I cranked up Miranda Lambert's "Gunpowder and lead". It's a fantastic song. Also Cage the Elelphant, "Cigarette daydreams". Good recording, pretty good song. N |
nutty, As for my response about the Morrow cables. Well, I can tell you that I "had" the SP-4's and then along came a sale on used cables and I simply couldn't resist the price of used SP-5's. I have been very happy with Morrow. They have always provided good service. Perhaps the best acknowledgement of their cables was when I purchased my amp. The dealer asked me if I needed cables and after telling him what I was using his reply was "Oh, you already have good cables". |
Glad to see the references to Golden Earring's Radar Love. One of my favorite albums back in the day and still. Listening to the British band Charlie, from first (Fantasy Girls) to last, although later albums are not my favorites, but love No Second Chance, Lines, Fight Dirty, and Here Comes Trouble. Criminally underappreciated with the talent they had. |
You may not have hear of this band before but I don't think it qualifies for the "Obscure band thread".....Cry of love. Only two albumns. "Diamonds & debris" and "Brother". Great vocals. Lead singer Robert Mason spent some time in Warrant after Jani Lane passed and worked with The Lynch Mob. https://youtu.be/k1vEONnGdPo N |
Playing in my system today, a little band from Louisville, KY. "Tantric", self titled. First albumn of theirs is really good. It's not guitar hero music though. The CD is recorded very well. If you haven't heard it, check it out. Then on to a bunch of random artists. BAND...................................SONG TITLE Ambrosia. Art Beware Ambrosia. Apothecary Kansas. Hold on Kansas. Sparks of the temple Counting Crows. Anna begins Counting crows. Raining in Baltimore Tori Amos. Hey Jupiter Tori Amos. Littls Amsterdam Tori Amos. Professional widow Pretenders. Middle of the road- fantastic S/T albumn, solid listen Steely Day. Babylon Sister Toto. St. George and the dragon N |
ghosthouse, Thanks for the input on the Morrow cables and the Clear Day's as well. I've been reading a lot about Clear Day Double Shotgun and they seem like a sound investment. But Mike Morrow is literally a few miles from my house. I could probably set an appointment to see some product first hand. I am currently using Audioquest Gibralter double biwire, for your guidance. I'll let you know if I make any changes. N |
Hey N... I’m very happy with the SP4s. I had some ClearDay double shotgun speaker cables I was running before. I liked them a lot but needed a bit more length. Can’t remember what made me go Morrow and not stay with Clear Day. The Clear Day cable really was an eye (ear?) opener when I put them in. However I got there, I think the SP-4s have just a bit more clarity than the Clear Days yet aren’t too edgy or hard. I’m still using Clear Day jumpers with the SP-4s on the Totem Forests. Most of my ICs are Morrow too now. The exception is a Cardas Parsec on my CDP and the DH Labs digital cable from the V-Link 192 to DAC. My system page needs a bit of an update I think. I might trade up from the MA-3 on my TT to an MA-4 on that. Morrow has a 60 day trial which certainly takes the risk out. I always check out his used stuff too. PLUS he runs a lot of specials. Not so long ago he was offering credit toward his cable for any other brand cable you traded in. There might not have been any trial allowed on that deal...no returns on his wire. Dunno what you are running now but can’t hurt to try some SP-4s. Just be patient. With his stuff, early on, the SQ can change from one night to the next. One night everything will sound great. The next night, like crap. They do seem to take a while to settle in. It’s not like they are atrocious out of the box...more that you will get used to a certain sound and suddenly the next time you listen, it ain’t there. But things get back to normal and sound good pretty quick. Good luck on what you decide. By the way, found Moondog Matinee "Carry Me, Rosie" on Spotify. I like their sound. Reminds me of Black Crowes a bit - the singer’s voice and the style of music. This is more my style of music than City Boy. |
falconquest, Jow S. is amazing. He is another one of my guitar hero's also...arcam88 and I saw him live in Cincinnati at the Taft theater in 2007. As always Joe put a great show. The Taft is an amazing place to see an artist of his caliber. Very good accoustics and seating and a very adult setting. I sometimes use his Joe Satriani self titled CD when I'm demo-ing my rig to friends. Can't forget Chickenfoot or his contributions to Mick Jagger and Deep Purple. Great addition to the thread. N |
I haven't read through this whole thread but along with Robin Trower one of my other favorite guitarists is Mr. Joe Satriani.....jam on Joe! Enjoy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yo6LXD7uzn4 |
