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?

Reubent great call. One of his best!   I saw him in a club a few years back, wow, did not disappoint!!!!

Back to the beginning........

Nutty, this one's for you - Robin Trower - "Long Misty Days"
@nkonor - That MCA Audiophile pressing is getting pretty expensive. I might pony up for one, or I might try a new re-issue. I'll reply back to this thread when I get whatever copy. It's a really fantastic album IMHO.

Oh man, ozzy, Quicksilver's version of "Pride Of Man" (a Hamilton Camp song) is KILLER! They were good live too, one of the best SF bands of the late-60's.
A couple of young singer song writers. Shakey Graves and Tyler Childers. Needed a break from the blues binge I’ve been on. 
"Quicksilver Messenger Service" in High Rez.
I love the Pride Of Man tune...

radfrad,

Thanks for the Trower update. Unfortunately the closest he will play near me is 250 miles from home. 

AxsTv, anyone catch Twisted Sister: A Twisted Christmas Live

I would like to wish everyone a very Merry christmas! Thanks for posting such great music!.

Robin Trower

Tour dates now on sale

If the Saint Olaf College Christmas concert is on your PBS station, watch it .The best Christmas concert in the USA !
I watched the Brian Setzer Orchestra’s Christmas Extravaganza on TV. Pretty darn cool! Setzer is still not much of a singer, but his guitar playing is great, and his tone is awesome---nothing like a Gretsch White Falcon plugged into a vintage blonde Fender!
JS Bach Weihnachtsoratorium, under Nikolaus Harnoncourt, streamed from Qobuz, the European 16/44 streaming service. It is my favourite performance, and the excellent sound quality does it full justice.
Thanks Nutty.
Was going to search for your recommendation when the wife said it was time to keep our tradition of opening one 🎁 on Christmas eve.

My present?

Awesome mix vol 1.
On cassette no less, time to fire up the Nakamichi.

Peace to all....
