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?

Just for you Nutty, well for me too.

Real to Reel .. Marillion.

Vinyl, Dutch Pressing

For me Market Square Heroes is their best live song ever. Its just so upbeat and gets the crowd going every time, you can’t help but boogie in place to that synth lick!
Nutty.
And I am huge Marillion fan! Love Fish to death!

Funny but true story.

We were going to a Marillion concert in England in the 80,s sometime.
Walking down a dark alley to the club it was in. Saw this hulking figure walking towards us in army fatigues and blacked out face.
We pooped our pants as we thought we were goners!
As he got closer we saw it was Fish himself.
We all laughed so hard when we explained, the thought of him being terrifying had never even occurred to him as he was dressed as he would be for "Forgotten Sons".

And yes it was a great show!
I mostly listen in my car for R&R as I can crank up the volume versus home where I mostly listen to piano, three piece Jazz with SAX, vocals and stand up bass!

uberwaltz, 

Thanks for the heads up. I'm familiar with most of the above. I own some of The Police and Tears for Fears. I don't recall Talk Talk or Ultravox.

I ordered Crowded House, Alone Together and Woodface, (Deluxe Edition) last evening. After a quick wiki search, I learned Crowded House was formed in Australia/New Zealand. 

I remembered Simple Minds, "Don't You", a classic and "Lies Lies" maybe a few more when I go digging into them. 

Right now, Kansas, Song for America

Nutty.
Some great British 80,s bands along the lines of Crowded House.

Tears for fears, Talk Talk, Simple Minds, The Thompson Twins , Ultravox, the Police.
To name just a few.....
It's been a Brad Mehldau day. I'm now on Disc 4. 10 Years Solo Live - Brad Mehldau (Piano)

My second concert was Mountain, when I was a sophomore during the Climbing tour, and it was vey exciting. I saw them another time after that, and then Leslie and Corky with Jack Bruce when I was in college.  
Mountain Climbing.
I See some Robin Trower fans here.
One of the best Concerts i ever heard and saw was Mountain when their
Nantucket Sleigh ride album was just released.
The Opening Act was Procol Harum with Robin Trower on Guitar.
I was a Junior in High School.
To me there is nothing like the sound of this Era and i kook for gear that sounds like it.
