Warren Zevon / I'll sleep when I'm dead
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?

Today, yesterday really, I took a deep dive into Hasidic New Wave, starting with their album "Psycho-Semitic"; sounds a little offbeat, to be sure, with the starting notes played on a shofar spitting out little blats, but it devolves and morphs into some wonderful fusion, with a psych edge. Also played two different copies of Leaf Hound, Growers of Mushroom and to round things out, some of Free's first album, Tons of Sobs on an old UK pink label. This was probably the peak of the blues psych stuff- really first tier, but with Blackcat Bones and Leaf Hound, tapping into the same vein. |
I picked up John Smith's Headlong album on vinyl and it is fine... Great poetry and really good guitar work sung with a lot of soul. Authentic music at a time lacking much of the same... Ed Sheeran keeps going and he might arrive at the place John Smith lives. If you enjoy Hozier, Ben Howard, James Taylor, Kaleo, James Morrison I would "take a listen" jhv |
uberwaltz, I had Street Talk on cassette on when it released. It was recorded great and has some very good tracks on it. I have it on download now. It sounded fantastic in my 1977 Olds Cutlass with it's 350 Rocket engine, 4 barrell carburetor. My sound system: a Pioneer Super Tuner 2 casette deck and a 250 watt Kenwood EQ, Kenwood 6X9" 3 ways with 20oz Magnets. Let the good times roll! N |
Well I just discovered them a couple years ago but I keep coming back to Ocean Colour Scene. "The Riverboat Song" to me, my partner, and anyone we've played it for is simply one of the best rock songs ever recorded. Sublime. They are back together and touring in British Isles now too. Went through a recent every album listening retrospective of Buffalo Springfield as well. |
Came across something new tonight while searching for the audio of a fairly recent, sit-down interview with Donald Fagen on the Rolling Stone website. After listening to the interview (where DF speaks quite a bit about his and Walter Becker's early days and shares some fairly personal details about WB that even some staunch SD fans, myself included, may not be aware of). Anyway, after that I went back to click on another article in RS about Fagen, and an article came up about him producing a debut album by someone named Peter More. This (brief) article (which includes a full-length track to listen to) is here: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/steely-dans-donald-fagen-talks-producing-peter-more-so... Hope there will be some here who share my appreciation of the discovery of this potentially good, new band. Listening to this track sample through my laptop, with a Creative Sound Blaster as a pre-amp routed to a JVC RX-317 receiver with AKG K-701 headphones. If I end up buying this CD, this music will make it over to the next room where my main listening rig is set-up. I'm new here, as this is my first post. Want to say hello to everyone and that I've enjoyed reading the exchange of opinion and / or experience of the contributors here, as I've been "lurking" for quite some time. Looking forward to going back in this thread and checking out some music that's new to me. Wishing everyone Good Listening! |
