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?

Stereo5. Yes I am very lucky agreed! My LRS is run by a true music lover not a business man. As such I know he sells good quality at too low a price in all honesty. While I was working in Dallas I was told by many I just had to visit this particular record store in Arlington. So I did. 15 minutes later I left never to return. I could not find one album under $12 and that was for junk. Some albums I had bought for $4&$5 at my LRS they were asking $15 to $20 for. And as a regular at my LRS even with his already very fair prices he always knocks a few dollars off my purchase for cash. Honestly if ANYBODY here is ever in Jacksonville area they HAVE to visit Wolfsons Records! |
@bdp24, my favorite blues song is by Little Walter: "Hate to See You Go". The Stones cover it on their recent blues album. To your list I'd add Junior Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside, both Mississippi hill country blues singers. R.L.'s later stuff is a bit funky. I saw his grandson and former drum player Cedric Burnside play in a tiny (and most of the year, abandoned) movie theater in Clarksdale, Mississippi a few years ago. It was encouraging that there were a lot of college students in there who clearly knew his music. *************** Tonight I'm listening to Mark Knopler's new album Down the Road Wherever and not really digging it. :-( |
@n80, yup, I'm a big Little Walter fan, and have his Hate To See You Go LP on Chess Records. I worked with a guy up in the Bay Area (Gary Smith) who goes for the same tone outta his harp as did LW, sax-like. Gary mentored with Charlie Musselwhite for a while in the 70's, and worked in Robben Ford's band when Robben live in San Jose. If you can find it, consider buying Gary's Up The Line album (CD only), it's real good, pure Chicago style Blues. My favorite Blues is that which swings, shuffle rhythms (they're fun to play, too). Give a listen to Lowell Fulson, a song like "Reconsider Baby", a classic. |
