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?

nutty
slaw,

You're on a roll. Keep it up.....

I like your Bruce Cockburn pick. Check this out: I've got tickets to see Bruce Cockburn in June at The Fur Peace Ranch. If you've never heard of it, check it out on line. Interesting place for music lovers, to say the least. The concert hall seats 200 people. Up close and personal. Just the way I like it.....
I heard something on Radio Paradise yesterday that blew my mind. Had to go to the record store and pick it up today. Just home and played it and LOVE IT!

The Beatles - Yellow Submarine - 1999 REMIX - Songtrack LP. The remixed long version of "It's All Too Much" is absolutely killer, IMHO. I know it might be blasphemy for true Beatles aficionados, but I really like this remixed compilation LP. The sound quality is outstanding and it sounds almost contemporary verses the originals. 

I'm diggin' it. And you say?

Nope, I think that's a different one, or maybe just an alternate version of the same recording.

Had an impromptu get-together of half of my music club tonight. Played some good tunes that turned into an Elvis Costello Love fest. Here are some of the highlights:


The Beatles - "It’s All Too Much" long version and "Hey Bulldog" from Yellow Submarine Soundtracks LP

The Bears - "Fear is Never Boring"

Mark-Almond Band Live - "The City"

Brian Auger’s Oblivion Express - "Compared to What" and "Inner City Blues"

Smithereens - "Blood and Roses"

Shovels and Rope - "Eric’s Birthday" and "This Ride" from Little Seeds

Elvis Costello - "Almost Blue" from Imperial Bedroom (We’re Seeing EC this Summer)

Elvis Costello - "Deep Dark Truthful Mirror" from the MTV Unplugged CD

Elvis Costello - "At The Other End of The Telescope", "All This Useless Beauty", "Complicated Shadows" and "Why Can’t a Man Stand Alone" from All This Useless Beauty

And the closer was a very Beatlesque "1967" from Adrian Belew’s Mister Music Head

It was a great impromptu evening of music.

Happy Daylight Saving Time to Everyone.............

arcam88,

Thanks for the Beth Hart link.

I thought I heard Janis giving it a "Hell yeah!"
nutty,

I've been listening to my new lp of Tanita Tikaram "Closer to the People".

What a wonderful artist! I've been around long enough to know that, especially with lps, when one hears of an interesting, obscure artist, jump on it quickly! I'm glad I did because I'm sure this is unlikely to be mass produced.

Pay back... The guy whose building my new phono stage, turned me on to an interesting artist... Katell Keineg. Her only lp was "Jet". I recently saw a sealed copy go for $100 on Discogs. Those of you who listen to cds, are in for a treat.
Steely Dan
"Katy Lied" & "Aja"
I sure wish everything was recorded like Steely Dan!😎
Mostly..I'd beg to differ on the MFSL "Katy Lied"...a major disappointment.

That's just my view.
I just got a new copy of the Katy Lied CD the other day and I think it sounds excellent.
Many of their CDs are extremely hard to find and if you do find them they're very expensive.
 What's the deal?
Orchestral Manoevers in the Dark, Architecture and Morality. Timeless classic. On cassette. The only way to fly. 

Listening to Roxy Musics "Avalon" but geoff has me wishing I had some OMD to listen to. I had forgotten about them......great call geoff. Just ordered it.
