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?

mapman,

Muse has a Greatist Hits 2 CD set. It includes some cuts from Drones also. Most greatist hits collections don't measure up and usually leave us wondering why certain songs were omitted. Well this CD delivers! Great sonics, great tracking list.

jafant,

Black Sabbath is great. The first albumn is unrivaled, IMO. I do like Dio also. That albumn has some guts. Always liked "Chilxren of the sky". 

N


Actually the Pat Travers tickets are for Saturday! BMI Racetrack in Versailles and I'm in Cincinnati. Rick Emmit of Triumph is appearing also. 

?N?
jafant, 

I have not heard "13" but now that you've recommend it I will. Thanks.
Dio sings 2 great songs on Kansas' Kerry Livgren's solo albumn, "Mask of the great deceiver " and "To live for the king". Really great vocal work and the CD is recorded like those old Kansas albumns. There is a great cut that Steve Walsh sings on also. 

gshephardbuster, 

Thats a great Garbage selection! 

Today I won 2 tickets to see Pat Travers in Versailles, OH on Thursday. It's 2.5 hrs each way. Don't know if I have the mojo for the trip. I never thought I would win!

N
jafant,

I agree 100% on your assessment of V/H.

astro58,

I love the Manfred mann media as well. I have several CD's but I first heard them on LP way back when. Great recordings!Also.. I will to put Grace P. on my to do list. I've only heard the Nocturnals.

So we decided not to go to the Pat Travers event in Versailles, OH. To much of a trek. 5 hour round trip. So arcam88 just reminded me of this albumn:
Pat Travers, Blues Magnet. Fantastic song called "This world we live in". Pat definitely belongs on our guitar hero thread.

Listened to Grace Potter. I need to get CD. It should be a very good recording.
"The lion the beast the beat" is excellent has good drive.
"Stars" is a beatiful song, both versions. 
"Timekeeper" should sound amazing on disc. Sounded good on my headphones.
"Roulette" is a keeper also. 
Great post.

Danzig, "Mother". Haven't played that in a while!
Greg Kihn Band, "The breakup song". They just don't write 'em like that anymore.

astro58go,

Yep! Got the sunburn to prove it. We didn’t play "moving in stereo". However, later we did listen to pre 80’s The Cars, S/T CD, indoors on my main system . Rory is one of my favorite guitarist. I have not heard the title you referd to above. But I have a lot of other Rory titles. I like all types, genres of music. And on occasion, I’ll have a "momentary laps of reason" and go rogue on some 80’s or big hair 80’s.

Out by the pool again now. Currently playing, Steely Dan, Countdown to ecstasy.

N


Hailstorm, Reaminate:EP The covers. 
The cover of Heart's "All I wanna do is make love to you" is worth a listen.
