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?

Dave Brubeck - Time Changes Rachelle Ferrell - Live at the Montreux Oscar Peterson - Jazz is Blues All glorious, Time Changes album specifically the song Elementals and the incredible voice of Rachelle Ferrell on My Funny Valentine and I can Explain will give you’re speakers a honest workout. Sound amazing through my Magnepan 20.7’s. Cheers |
uber- Yup...strong keyboards. Didn't remember UH had that focus but it surely do. Long time fan of "keyboard" oriented bands like Procol Harum, Yes and ELP, and, to a lesser extent, Deep Purple ("lesser" because with Blackmore's guitar it's more 50/50 keyboard/guitar). Add Traffic and Lee Michaels to the list. Who'm I missing??? One other thing I was struck with sampling tracks from UH's extensive discography... those guys could SING! Good, IN-TUNE vocals (and this before "Auto-Tune"!) and great, great harmonies. I was impressed by the arrangements. You look back at that stuff done 40 years ago and it's easy to understand why some people today despair about the state of contemporary popular music. |
Easy Livin, yes love the keyboards on that Ken Hensley is sort of like a cross between Rick Wakeman and John Lord imho, most Heep songs feature some strong keyboards. Enjoy....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grSWdLdp7po |
No time yet for UH. Still exploring Satriani. So far everything I’ve tried is golden... What Happens Next S/T Crystal Planet Black Swans & Wormhole Wizards Strange Beautiful Music Track 13 The Traveler https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMRdEpUXefk Okay...SBM is over. I DO recall this one by Uriah Heep. Still sounds pretty good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKxZY0DIxIk Songs are stronger and sound is better than I remembered. Love that upfront organ [(Hammond?) with Leslie]. Will have to try the others you mention. See if any brain cells fire up in recollection. |
@uberwaltz Appreciate the feedback. Glad Resonate worked for you. Nutty had recommended it a while ago but it took me some time to be in a place where I could "hear it"...if you know what I mean. Yup, Steady is a strong track I just mention GH’s bass work on that one because it really stood out to me. Guess I will have to check out some Heep. Never got into them though I do generally enjoy prog. I remember when they were getting a bit of airplay on "underground" FM radio. Right now though, Black Swans & Wormhole Wizards...Satriani (again). Track 4 Light Years Away https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmuNOpihXTI |
Hey über...looking at your Rainbow Rising "avatar", you might really enjoy the organ on Resonate (assuming that RR image also means you like/liked Deep Purple). Keyboard guy on Resonate... http://www.lachydoley.com/2016/07/08/recording-with-glenn-hughes-and-chad-smith-in-copenhagen/ |
Glenn Hughes, "Resonate" Track 5, Steady... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSXdTqIsmT4 Love GH's bass work on this track Thanks for the introduction N-man. |
