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?

Leon Bridges - Coming Home (180G vinyl LP)

The video for "River", from this album, is moving. Give it a look........

Nutty,

The Tubes - What do You Want from Live is one of my favorites. Love it. Those guys were definitely on top of their game at the time of that recording. That was a band that knew how to put on a show! And the musicianship is outstanding...
Been ploughing my way through the new Pink Floyd [massive] "Early Years" 27xDisc box set. Currently half way through... the BBC sessions are particularly good (much better than the bootlegs for sure)
Don't let the lp above go unnoticed. I did when I first bought it. I was intrigued by the Jenny Lewis & The Watson Twins "Rabbit Fur Coat" lp. (Still one of my favorites).

I set this one aside. Now, I am glued to it! There is a Beth Orton vibe going on if you take the time to listen. Sonics are great.

Happy Listening!
jji,

I do that all the time.   I call it mapman radio, my own personal internet station.   Or like having all your music in your own personal jukebox.   I'm currently listening remotely over an internet connection.  "The End of the World" by Skeeter Davis is playing.
ghosthouse, jafant,

Ever since "Steady On" was released, I've used it as one of my go-to lps for system evaluation. I bought an extra copy just because I've played it so much. Also have the 45rpm 12" EP.

Big SL fan.

Going to break out "Thanksgiving" by Mary Gauthier tomorrow.
Glad you like her, @jafant. 

I only have Small Repairs and 4 Walls.  Based on those, her songwriting is strong, the arrangements and production are superb and the sound quality (CD) is very good on both.  I need to get a listen to her other albums.   
Jazz Pistols - live

Crowded House - Time On Earth

Shawn Colvin - A Few Small Repairs 
This MAY be THE best test lp for any hard rocker out there. If your system can handle high db's, extreme low bass that sounds tuneful, does not clip on loud passages, well, you have the perfect lp to play on your system.

Enjoy!
This one's got it all.

First: Chris Cornell on vocals. If that isn't enough...

The overall frequency range is there! Your systems' capability will be THE deciding factor!

Have Fun!

This one is a bit off the beaten path,
Burner, One for the Road.

"Five pills-(and a bottle of whiskey)"

Lee Ritenour 6 String Theory 

He plays on some tracks along with other guitarists e,g, John Scofield, Steve Lukather) , and not at all on others like Give Me One Reason which is played by Joe Bonamassa and Robert Cray
FWIW: just compared "I Don't Want To Be A Soldier" from the Lennon Box/ vs. MFSL/#905.

The MFSL has a little more depth and air. That is THE main difference.
The Lennon Box. This is a "Back To Black" pressing. So far, no problems.

jafant, By the way.. which one is pink?
Genesis, Invisible Touch. (1986)

5 top five singles in the UK. 4 sold out shows at Wembley Stadium to promote the albumn. All of this after the band took a "break" in 1984.

Tab Benoit - "Nice and Warm"  The title track is one of my blues favorites.
It's live music Wednesday at the Reubent house.

Band of Horses - Acoustic at the Ryman

And one of the most amazing recordings in my collection:

Chip Taylor and Carrie Rodriguez - Live From the Ruhr Triennale.

If you don't have this Chip Taylor and Carrie Rodriguez recording, you need it. A truly inspired performance and a great sounding recording....

Started with La Playa Sextet - Care To Cha Cha Cha?;(during workout) then Falcon and Snowman(cooling off after workout) then Robin Williams - A Night At The Met to start day with laughing.

 After Election, I plan to play Carla Bley European Tour 1977 with second track on side B that starts with Star Spangled Banner in minor key.
hifiman,

I never had the chance to see Edgar live. You are very fortunate. Oh, and I can't remember hearing a bad version of "Frankenstein"!
"Free ride" is also timeless. 

This morning- Black Country Communion, ST. I needed a bit of Glenn Hughes and Bonamossa infusion to get me going this morning!
Also, woke the neighbors with White Stripes, "Ball and Busicut".
