Eva Cassidy - Simply Eva
Wynton Marsalis & Eric Clapton Play The Blues.

Tull is a genius, with over 40 albumns in his catalog. He is playing in at the Aronoff center in Cincinnati on April 12th. Just miles from my home. 

Listened to Rick Braun, "Full Stride". And I just finished Russ Ballard, "Barnet Dogs". Ever heard it?

Feist "Metals"

Jethro tull  ....songs from the woods... rattling the windows :)

Nutty,

You inspired me this time with the AW. I'm cleaning my lp of Duffy "Rockferry" as I write this.

Gov't Mule  "Dose" ,  "Shout"

Amy Winehouse, Back to Black.

The last couple of days I have been listening to mostly movie sound tracks from the 1950s , 1960s and 1970s ,.

Arctic Monkeys "AM"

"Gypsy woman" is an old Muddy Waters tune. 

N

Repeating myself rad, but I definitely agree with you on how good that S/T Rory Gallagher sounds. It just makes me wonder why EVERYTHING can’t sound that good. A subject for a whole ’nother thread I suppose....
If you could find the CD used for cheap, might be worth it for that 1 track. Have fun.

Pat Metheny

Baroness "Red".
One of new bands with talented mixture of metal jazz and prog.

Peter Gabrial- So.

Elton John- Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Lit- (1 song), "My own worst enemy".

N

Ghost house- "Gypsy Woman" is not on this LP.  But boy does this recording
come across as some of the best sounding  recording among my entire collection.
Maybe  350 LP and 200 CD.  My LP collection I purchased back in late 70's and into 80's.  Then I got into Cd cuz that was the rage.  80's 90's.  A lot are duplicate CD LP. Same artists.  I now buy more LP as a first choice now
Collection is nearly all classic Rock & Roll

I dusted off "Peggy Suicide" by Julian Cope last night. I had forgotten what a weird dude he is, but also enjoyed the music a lot. Cope definitely has the Iggy Pop/Bowie vibe going on this one. 

radfrad - just catching up with some of the earlier posts in this thread.  The original release of that self-titled Rory Gallagher you are talking about goes back to 1971 and is WELL recorded for sure.  That comes across very much even on CD.  It was his first solo release after his band, Taste, broke up.  Does your version have, "Gypsy Woman"?  That's a great track for bass (bonus on the CD).  Unfortunate that not all his later stuff is up to par sonically (though the music and playing are compelling).  Have you tried his, "Tattoo" yet?  Well worth it for A Million Miles Away alone.  Glad to see another RG fan made.  Wish he were still around. 

slaw,

The baby's? I have got to locate my copy of Union Jacks! You have inspired me.

N

Don't Mistreat Your Friends , Clyde Hopkins (blues)

ended with....The Babys  "Broken Heart"

Thanks for mentioning Foreigner and Dokken!!

Lou Gramm, great rock vocalist. 

George Lynch is an amazing guitarist.  Love the "Lynch Mob". 

N

Robin Trower's "Twice Removed From Yesterday".  Love his guitar tone.

Heart-Little Queen,  Foreigner-4,  Dokken-Tooth and Nail,  Michael Jackson- Thriller. 

Vanden Plas- Beyond daylight, "Nightwalker".

N

Matthew Sweet .....Girlfriend. Somehow, It fell out of rotation. What a mistake that was.  One of my favorite guitar records ever.  Richard Lloyd and Robert Quine, among others work wonders within the confines of some amazing, beautifully crafted songs by Sweet.

Rory Gallagher- "Keychain", "Fly off the handle". (YouTube link for Rory below)

https://youtu.be/Yml4V-zcf3A

Blur-"Song 2". (Just wanted something nonsensical and loud!)

Gary Moore- "Parisienne walkways".
