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?

Strangers in the night is one of the best live albums ever. I saw them live in their heyday. One of the best shows I've been to.

Gillian Welch - Soul Journey

ghost brought this girl up other night and the name stayed with me, went thru my archives and then I remembered had several of her older albums. This one of my wife’s favorite and since it’s Valentines I burnt it to CD. I’ll be glad when the Node 2 arrives so I get access to my library again.
@ghosthouse ...seems you followed her longer than I, would appreciate any of her worthwhile recordings you throw my way.
Was thinking we all should throw a lil list of must haves in our libraries, and share.

I peruse this thread and the ’what are you streaming’ thread a lot and I’ve been turned onto some good music. As someone mentioned in another thread, we are in a golden age of music diversity and availability.

The downside is that when I look up a lot of the recommendations mentioned here, most of the time I am underwhelmed. This is not a complaint or a criticism. We all have different tastes and that’s good. Plus, I’m not hearing much overtly bad music. Most of what people mention in these threads is well done.......just not my cup of tea. Just doesn’t hook me in.

Given the volume and variety out there this is no surprise of course but I’m just struck by how much good but not great (to me) music is out there. I’ve listened through quite a few whole albums by an artist and or multiple songs by an artist enjoyed them okay but have not been compelled to purchase them on CD....which is my measure of how good an album is to me.

The bottom line is that I have to preview a lot of music before I find something I want to buy and own. But there are a lot or worse ways to spend one’s time, right?

It also gives me some insight into other’s tastes in music.

Some of you guys are weird. ;-)
