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?
Tchaikovsky-Dvorak-Grieg Serenades. Janos Rollo conducting Orchestre de Chambre Ferenc Liszt. Tchaikovsky, Serenade for Strings in C major/Dvorak, Serenade for Strings in E major/Grieg, Suite Holberg. Quintana/Harmonia Mundi 1991, German release
Akron Family & Angels of Light / Self Title Indie Rock. "Angels of light" was led by Michael Gira. He also was the leader of the band "Swans". With "Angels of light" he mellowed a bit. Interesting music
+1 for the cocktail, bummer about the cold weather in New Orleans. I'm in Michigan so getting colder weather as expected. At some point I think the wife & I will move to a warmer climate.
Bardo Pond / On the ellipse Indie rock for the adventurous
@boxer12 What’s coincidentally interesting is that she is from Jerez de la Frontera, Cádiz and I just happen to be trying out a new (for me) cocktail for the first time made from equal parts Amontillado and Vermouth. Sherry or Jerez is from her birthplace. I’m using a French vermouth.
I missed out hearing her live at the club scene in Spain during my time there ’99-’01.
The Fiery Furnaces / Bitter tea My favorite from this band. To bad they didn't release it on vinyl. This band is different. Lots of time & chord changes.
La Niña --- La Mala Rodriguez (Spanish Rap / Hip-Hop circa 2003) The music video of the title track was banned on Spanish TV because it depicts a very young girl as drug dealer.
The Changing of the Guard - Starflyer 59 ... bit of alternative rock. They remind of a modern take on The Smiths, including the throaty voice of the lead singer. Good recordings too, sonically.
I may not be Patricia Barber’s fan, but she is surely not distortion.
Next time, I will not risk my ears again. I am going straight to The Muppet Show Album. I am serious. It is well-written, well-played, and actually pleasant.
Carp, As Uber stated the TT thread is a great resource. In addition to that I spend a fair amount of time on the "allmusic" site & to a lesser extent, "pitchfork".
