@tomic601 You are very welcome (speaking for all, if I may). Glad you are finding new music here. Obviously, this isn't the only thread that'll help in that regard. Nutty's "What's playing on your system today?" is another good one. How are you liking that McVie/Buckingham album? Haven't checked that out yet. |
ghosthouse giving it mixed review so far..has the bright guitar in your face sonic fingerprint of Buckingham...dont hear the moody blues genious of Christine at work enough... lead off track hints at the brilliance of better Fleetwood Mac but as Tom Petty sang ” the A&R man dont hear a single i need to keep playing it tho.... |
@tomic601 Okay...I hear you on the LB/CM. I like Lindsey’s guitar playing in FWM, though I tend to prefer the older FWM of Peter Green or with Bob Welch (esp. Penguin & Mystery to Me). Not a huge fan of Lindsey solo...have only Out of the Cradle. Maybe, left alone, he is too perfectionistic and overworks stuff, squeezing the life out of it. Not sure. Definitely talented but not a lot of depth for me. @toddverrone You can thank Spotify Browse/Discover for that one, Todd. It was a Spotify recommendation. Took a little bit to hook me. First time (first couple, maybe) I didn’t really "get it" - but kept coming back anyway... being drawn back. It’s definitely a gem. He’s in a duo worth checking out but a totally different sound than that solo album: "I'm Not a Gun". Glad somebody else likes Lavandula. https://www.discogs.com/artist/94495-Im-Not-A-Gun |
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, S/T. 1976 "American Girl" which closes out the disc, has in the 40 years since become a classic-rock radio staple. The song updates the idea of American Folk, incorporating rock’s muscle and swagger even as Petty’s lyrics keep it utterly grounded in workday humanity. More Tom P. and the Heartbreakers, "Refugee" "Free Fallin’" "I Won’t Back Down" N |
I really, really liked Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. At first. But there was something about them, or more correctly, about him, that didn't wear well with me. I at first just lost interest, eventually coming to actually dislike him. I know a lot of others still like him, and I appreciate that. But I was in my favorite Portland record store yesterday, and out of their system came a sound I recognized, a sound I love; it was The Dwight Twilley Band, a long-time favorite of mine. Wait a minute, no it's not. It's Dwight singing backgrounds on "Strangered In The Night", a song on the first TP & THB album. Now THAT'S more like it! Everyone who has and likes that album, give a listen to "SITN". See how much better that song is than the others on the album? Now, go and buy the first Dwight Twilley Band album, Sincerely. Prepare to be blown away! |
Guns N’ Roses, Chinese Democracy. If youve not heard "If the World", I think its one of their best tracks. https://youtu.be/XFDXrum9lMs N |
