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?

Sounds like a good plan Doug.
Angry Orchard is my tipple right now, very refreshing.
Think Visual ..... The Kinks.

Cassette.

Poor weekend due to trapped nerve in neck, constant pain, no way to sit anywhere comfortable and about 2 hours sleep since Thursday if I am lucky..lol.
And have to fly to Wisconsin 6am tomorrow for work.

I must be mad.

Oh wait, it's called a conscience and work ethic.
And I just have to keep the Purple flow going.
Malice in Wonderland... Paice, Ashton and Lord.

Pity they only made the one studio album!
@slaw

No big secret or conspiracy.

If you see my system you will see I have EVERY base covered apart from reel to reel.(and I keep looking at those darn things too!)

I post on here anything I play from any media.

Looking over the threads as I state in my opening on my streaming thread, I saw media specific threads for tt and cdp and thought in today’s high tech media world that one for streaming had a place. If it fizzles out then you will know I was wrong....

I LOVE the different aspects of different media and accept their differences. I do not and will never expect or try to make digital sound like analog and vice versa. They all have their unique sq and it all depends what mood I am in as to which I go for at any given time.
Simple as that.

After a long bad day sometimes I just cannot be bothered with flipping vinyl, sorry to say.
Also the extra music I have uncovered with tidal and deezer is fascinating to say the least.

And the ph10 is a really nice piece that I am still exploring on curves and loading.

Hope that helps to clarify.
Thought about time to make sure my old Pioneer cdp still works!

Retrospective3..... Rush
Another LRS day

This is the Sea... The Waterboys. DMM copy.

Most excellent sq!
Third Eye Blind S/T album
On cassette,an example of a great production and mastering on the humble tape!
Third Eye Blind and Collective Soul are 2 very underrated bands imho.
They get a lot of playtime here.
Enjoying!
Y&T......yes couple of hits but nothing much after, good party band!

What more can you say about Schenker, still one of my fave rock guitarists.
Saw him couple times after UFO as MSG.
Doctor Doctor please indeed!
Guess it will have to be .....


Cowboys from Hell first.

Cemetery Gates still an all time classic.
Nice to know Nutty.
I will be checking that out!

Found on the blue side on Tidal so will give it a listen tonight
Recovering the Satellites... Counting Crows.

Giving the old Pioneer cdp a spin.
Temporary things taking up space..... Dead Sara.

Nothing much to not like about this band imho.
Not sure why this album is so despised even by Grace herself!

Knee Deep in the Hoopla... Starship
@stereo5 

Great show by Dee Snyder....talk about king of the hair bands!

One of my fave radio stations in the car on XM is Hair Nation.

Early Starship and Jefferson is pretty different from the 80,s onwards.
Grace really was the queen of San Francisco.
Not all of Waters output is worthy I agree.

I am not a big fan of "Amused to death" either.

But Radio Kaos? Oh yes......
Been slaving away jet washing the drive in the Florida sun for 5 hours straight!

Now some relaxation with a cassette double header.

Journeyman.... Eric Clapton
No Jacket Required... Phil Collins
@stereo5 

I was never a huge Godsmack fan but their latest album "when legends Rise" is killer! So then revisited 1000hp, which is pretty stout too.

And I knew there was another band at Rockville we saw...lol. It was these guys!
@jafant 

I am pretty sure the same lineup for Godsmack since about 2003 or so.

They are also touring this year with Shinedown, might have to catch that one too.
@stereo5 

Very nice list!

You and I have very similar tastes in music my friend.

Keep them coming.
Happy Fathers Day to all.
My present from my daughter... $30 with instructions to only spend it at the LRS.
Neat.
Damn.....another musician bites the big one way too early, just 54.

Time to spin some Pantera and Hellyeah then tonight.
Not vinyl but a score at the LRS anyway.

The Other Side... Godsmack

SACD and the sq is superb. It maybe pretty much a dead medium but done right it is an ear opener.
@nutty.
Did not get chance to reply before post was gone.
The Other Side is a hybrid SACD.
So it has 5.1 and 2.0 SACD and a regular 2.0 CD red book layer so it will play in any regular CD player to boot. Just not quite as glorious as in SACD form
Perfect Strangers... Deep Purple.

Cassette.

Actually one of my favorite Purple albums.
Oh lordy lordy.......
Was just rummaging around deep in my box of cassettes and what I just unearthed made me sit down and laugh and reflect on simpler times.

Found a battered tape labeled DNA live at the Midland 1988.

Wtf are DNA?
Ha, they were my band back in the day, bass player and lyricist extraordinaire!
Or that's what I thought....

So I just had to pop it in and hit play.

Embarrassed by it?

Hell no!

Maybe I will digitize it and upload it to Google drive or something and make you all listen....Lmfao!
Badlands are pretty bad ass tbh!
I mean Jake.E.Lee, ex Ozzy guitarist is just awesome. Throw in Ray Gillen and Eric Singer and basically another supergroup.
Only album I can find on Deezer is Dusk.

Time for a spin I think!

Nice call Nutty.
One problem with being off work, I spend money!
Just had 4 SACD titles delivered.

First up

Love and Theft... Bob Dylan.
