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?

paul mccartney, no other baby--an absolutely killer cover from the otherwise so-so run devil run.
centro-matic, love you just the same--very melodic, smart pop vaguely on the order of jayhawks or richard buckner; the principal one of the great unsung songwriters in this americana-ish genre

Ian Moore, "Barline 99"

Rage Against The Machine, S/T- Remastered....The statement "no samples, keyboards or synthesizers used in the making of this record" can be found at the end of the sleeve notes. Amazing. Tom Morello is one of the greats. The recordng is a masterpiece, IMO. Even the CD cover is remarkable.
"Take Back The Power"

Suddenly wanted to listen to Karajan's 1962 Beethoven 9th/5th/6th after not touching them for a while.

I also discovered the disc with the 3rd on no longer load on any of my CD players despite visually check out OK.

Just ordered the remastered version. Cannot live without the 3rd.

nutty-

is your Rage Against The Machine -the 20th anniversary remaster?
Happy Listening!
jmpsmash-

I like Karajan as well. Where did you purchase the remastered version?
Avail on CD, SACD or Both?

Happy Listening!
@jafant, the remastered Karajan 1962 Beethoven Symphony cycle CD/BRA boxset came out in 2014. They have the matching artwork as the original 1962 LP boxset (which I also own).

The whole 9 symphonies now fits into one single Bluray Audio disc compared to the LP boxset which I estimate weighs around 5lbs!

I got mine from Amazon.

There is supposed to be a SACD version too but I am not sure where to find. Some online has proven that it is the same remaster as they matched the Bluray Audio content bit by bit.

Brand X - Morrocan Roll

I missed these guys first time around.  Some great music and sound even though recorded 40 years ago.

The Band covering Dylan's, "Blind Willie McTell.  
Sets an appropriate tone given the recent departure...

"Well, I heard the hoot-owl singing
As they were taking down the tents
The stars above all the barren trees
Were his only audience...."

@nutty.  Not sure about the engineering but Comfort Eagle is one of my favorite recordings
lets active, "badger"--transcendentally gorgeous sad love song. mitch easter's nasal yowl isn't the greatest, but it fits the song + his end solo just burns.

arcam88 and I caught Ian Moore last Thursday evening at a dive bar in Newport Ky. The Southgate house Revival was formerly a church. It has been converted into 2 venues for concerts and local talent. Both spaces are very small. I would estimate that 100 people would be max capacity for the fire code in either bar.

We paid $10 bucks each and were appx twelve feet from the stage. There was appx 50 people in the bar....Ian Moore proceeded to kick our asses for two and a half hours!!! He shared stories from the road and stories of inspirations for some of the songs he has written. One story he told was when he opened for Ted Nugent, Lynyrd Skynyrd in Cincinnati. Nugent was arrested and fined for shooting flaming arrows during the concert.

However the story didn’t end there. Ian explained that the drummer that was touring with him (back then) just happened to be fooling around with Nugents Daughter. When Ted learned of the news, he barged onto Ian’s bus and threatened anyone that came near his Daughter. Ian said "in self preservation, I hid in the back his bus overnight".

Another story that included Cheap Trick. Ian was young and they were playing in Austin where he grew up so all of Ian’s friends and family were in attendance. Robin Zander asked Ian if he would like to perform the encore with them. Ian said "Hell yeah! How cool! It’s F****n Cheap Trick, right!". So Ian was telling all of his friends that he was joining the encore. The song was The Beatles, Day Tripper and he was getting to jam with Cheap Trick, one of his favorite bands.

Rick Nielsen told Ian he was going to start the song and Ian was to come out and join when he was ready. Ian said "I had a different plan. He was going to go out swinging in front of his home town". Nielsen started the beginning riff of Day Tripper. Ian went out and did a Michael Jordan, sky high, 4 second hangtime jump into the Pete Townsend windmill and landed into the splits and then,,,,, hit the wrong chord!! Wasn’t funny then, but he still smiles when he tells the story.

It was a fantastic show, and he did not disappoint. He played everything I wanted to hear and some cuts from his new release. Me and my guitar, Muddy Jesus, How does it feel, Harlem, Angelyne, Magdalena, Champagne and Reefer, Room 229, Blue Sky, Johnny Cash and his electric Bible, Satisfied, Carry On.......

After the show, he shook hands and signed autographs with everyone in the bar. THE BEST show I’ve seen in a long time. Don’t miss him if he comes to your town.

@nutty - Great story and review. I was at Southgate House Revival the night before to see dada and The Trews. That was a rockin' show for sure. I think there might have been 150 people in the sanctuary room. We all got our money's worth.
