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?

The Cranberries
Everybody else is doing it , so why can't we ?

I read about the Cranberries 25th anniversary vinyl release of their first CD , when I went to the " House Of Records " I found it along with 
a special pressing from the year before , both were from the original masters , the anniversary release was Remastered the special release was not so I thought that would be a better choice .
It sounds way better than my CD copy .

I absolutely love "John Barley Corn Must Die" One of the best Traffic albums IMO

Central Maryland.   Been to Michigan a few  times this time of year.....cold!     Not very sunny here today but it warmed up a bit today and  a nice southern exposure in there nonetheless.  
" Relaxing in the sunroom" Apparently you don't live in Michigan LOL

I’m very fortunate to have been able to set up having music wired or broadcast into most any room of my house off various systems. Relaxing in the sunroom with the Dynaudio Contours today. Music server on random play. Currently grooving to Beethoven Missa Solemnis performed by George Solti and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Choir, a Decca recording on CD.

@nutty - Thanks for the mention of ELP's "Tarkus". Was at Plaid Room Records this morning and plucked a nice copy out of the "new today" used record bin.

n80


Agreed-  the CD is excellent in sound quality. The SACD version is outstanding in sound quality.  Happy Listening!

Nutty

Exactly!

Both those D.T. Albums are early nineties, very accessible.

Some of the later stuff is a bit esoteric to say the least.

Same with IQ, I still think their first self titled album was the best and it gets played often here.
Steely Dan-Gaucho, CD. The production quality is so good I even like the songs I don't like. ;-)
ghosthouse, uberwaltz-

I feel the older Dream Theater music is best. It has a more organic working mans feel to it.

jafant, 

You were on to something with Tina Turner earlier. I spun Simply The Best- CD earlier. Tina's vocals on the Totem Forest Signatures, wow!

Listen Like Thieves ... INXS

Try Images and Words by D.T too.

It's one I can easily listen to time and time again, the first track Pull Me Under is a favourite for me.
Dream Theater - Awake

Thanks to Nutty for suggesting this one.  
It's got more emotional "juice" than other DT music I'd tried.  
Pink Floyd, “Wish You Were Here”    Sony Mastersound Gold CD  SBM.
