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?

The Elvis (Costello) section of my record collection is one of the most densely populated.  I hope there's no Coronavirus there!  Blood and Chocolate is one of my favorites.  I Want You is one of my favorite songs ever.
Uber, I listen to jazz all day long at work from the NPR station in Seattle.  I'm about 50 miles away, but have a roof antenna that pulls it in pretty good.  Magnum Dynalabs Etude tuner.  I also have an Onkyo T9090II that does a little better at grabbing a signal, but doesn't sound quite as good as the Etude (to me).
Still nothing. After being out for over a day, my power is back on, but only at 100 volts. I'm afraid to turn on my system. 
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. 
The Trinity Session - Cowboy Junkies.  Moving on to Mavis Staples Live in London now on Qobuz.
Listening to Linda Rondstadt - Heart Like a Wheel - Hi Res on Qobuz while I work.
Listening to some MOFI SACD's this AM.  The Band - Music From Big Pink, Supertramp - Breakfast in America.
I picked up the Essential REO Speedwagon 2 CD compilation for 5 bucks yesterday.  I'm not sure it was all "essential" (at least not to me), as I'm not a fan of their later power ballad period, but I love me some 157 Riverside Avenue, Ridin' The Storm Out, and a few others.  
I missed the Santana disses. Really? One of my friends played a few tracks from Guitar Heaven a couple of weeks ago. I hadn't heard it before and really liked it. 
Tower of Power - Direct. Maybe not their best music ever, but what an amazing recording! 
Ornette Coleman  - The Shape of Jazz to Come - SACD

Alice in Chains - Facelift - CD
Yes - S/T - Qobuz Hi-Res
Cassius - Dreems -  Qobuz Hi-Res
WAR - The Hits - CD
I've been listening to James Taylor's The Warner Bros. Albums: 1970-1976 on Qobuz in hi-res.  It's sublime.
I'm listening to the new Tool now on Tidal through my headphone system.  Musically it's great, but it seems to lack some of the "bite" of their earlier work.  I guess we all grow up and mellow out a little.
Lana Del Rey - Norman F_____ Rockwell and Sheryl Crow - Threads on Qobuz this morning. Doing some headphone listening with the Focal Elex. I love these headphones!
Listening to Lemmy when he was a space rocker.  Hawkwind - Hall of the Mountain Grill, Qobuz
I listened to the new Pixies album, Beneath the Eyrie this morning.  Not much new music "grabs" me on first listen nowadays, but I really liked it.  Qobuz, Hi- Res.  Listening to Rush, Permanent Waves now.
I picked up a few used Deep Purple albums recently that were all in great shape.  I've always liked Deep Purple, but dipping into their older catalog was a real treat, even the David Coverdale stuff that Allmusic only gave two stars in their reviews.
Jazz from KNKX radio on my new (to me) Magnum Dynalab FT-101A with the Etude upgrade.  I'm over 50 miles away and it sounds fantastic.
