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?

A7X playing Rockville here in Jax next April, already have our tickets!

Complete contrast tonight.

Surfin with the alien.....Joe Satriani

Heart full of sky.......Mostly Autumn.
In the theme of the OPS original post, time for a guitar hero tonight.

Very underrated musician by the name of
Gary Moore.
Parisienne Walkways is just an utter classic.

Of course this then morphed into
The Boys Are Back In Town....Thin Lizzy.

God bless Phil Lynotts soul.

uberwaltz, 
Gary Moore is great and has been mentioned many times on this thread. That's a great set list. One of Moore's greatest influences was Peter Green of the original Fleetwood Mac. 

"...Peter Green's continued influence on Moore was repaid as a tribute to Green on his 1995 album Blues for Greeny, an album consisting entirely of Green compositions. On this tribute album, Moore played Green's 1959 Les Paul Standard guitar that Green had lent to Moore after leaving Fleetwood Mac. Moore ultimately purchased the guitar, at Green's request, so that "it would have a good home".[5]

Listening to Rod Stewart, Every Picture Tells a Story.  His best IMHO.
And A Holiday tune from Rod, "Red-Suited Superman"

Happy Holidays!

@nutty , uberwaltz

I saw Styx at one time in my life.... around The Grand Illusion tour.

@ozzy

Interestingly enough, the very thing I love about these music threads... your post just reminded me that I wanted to clean my copy of Mannasas this weekend. Thanks! From that, I’ll sneak in a (tune of the day) here...

"Black Queen" off his S/T lp.  He is one of the great guitar players that really don't get the attention, IMO.
Beethoven piano sonatas 30-31, played by Barenboim and then Kovacevich. Combination of energy, counterpoint and slow, drifting adagios. Masterpieces!
"moving right along"...

uberwaltz,

I own several holiday discs and downloads. However my favorite! CD is
A Charlie Brown Christmas with the Vince Guaraldi Trio. Its an excellent recording.

Also your Boston selection is excellent! Tom Scholz is a genius.

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....
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.
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!
If the Saint Olaf College Christmas concert is on your PBS station, watch it .The best Christmas concert in the USA !
Robin Trower
 is touring the East Coast and selected other cities Spring 2018
Tour dates now on sale
