Music that really stirs your emotions


ok, I know all music is suppose to stir your emotions . . . but stick with me.

I put the original Boz Scaggs album on the TT this morning. This has always been one of my favorites - I played it constantly while in college in the mid-70's, but haven't listened to it in over a year. Side 2 is one of the best album sides aver recorded IMO - the sequence of songs is perfect. Anyway, It's unavoidable to get sucked into "Loan me a Dime" from the beginning (foot tapping, head bobbing, etc), but about 3/4's of the way through Duane Allman's solo I begin to giggle uncontrollably. Then after all that, it goes into "Sweet Release", which really does help release all that energy from the prior track.

What music most stirs emotions for you - whether it's giggling, crying, or ?

my first automatic thought is..Regina Carter "Paganini: after a dream" she records/plays Paganini's owned violin!! Why so good is this performance? Just Regina...the much emotion played through this instrument....a combination, an unexplained beauty in life!!
mapman, Mahler scares me...but yet, I keep coming back for more!. I'm a glutten for punishment! He makes me check my doors at night!! Im getting another pit bull!
Try "christmas time is here again"choral version, by Vince Guaraldi (popularized by ""A Charlie Brown Christmas" It kicks my butt each time). and maybe some prescription meds. Im not a doctor, but I play one on TV...well..cable, I'm lying again,, sorry Enjoy
