| Fleetwood Mac All of this discussion over the different versions of FM sent me to amazon to investigate Peter Green era recordings. I found a 3 disc live set recorded in 1970 called Boston that was released last month. It looks like a bundling of 3 separate liv... | |
| "Looking Into You" A Tribute To Jackson Browne Thanks for the post. I like a lot of these artists and certainly enjoy Jackson Browne. | |
| SRV Instrumental tracks and similar artists Riviera is such a fine song. I would look into Ronnie Earl and the broadcasters. Ronnie is a Boston based blues guitarist with great chops. He has several terrific instrumentals in his catalog. I think his last cd was completely instrumental. High... | |
| Rembering the 80s: College Rock Qdrone-I agree with you about Guadalcanal Diary. I think that they deserve the "deluxe edition" treatment or a box set including selections from their albums, out takes, and perhaps a live recording. Love Tractor is another unique under appreciate... | |
| Rembering the 80s: College Rock Atlanta is blessed with WRAS from Ga. ST. J.B. Fuqua endowed this college station years ago. Consequently, WRAS has a 100,000 watt transmitter and can compete with the commercial stations only they could play anything they wanted. They helped brea... | |
| Paco De Lucia R.I.P. His work with Al Dimeola and John McLaughlin on "Friday night in San Francisco" I outstanding. A reference recording for me. | |
| My most memorable ROCK moment Wow. Hendrix, the Dead in Amsterdam, the Stooges in a fist fight, Chuck Berry at a birthday party? Although I have seen countless arena tours with most of the big name acts over the past 40 years, this thread makes me want to see even more. The pr... | |
| My most memorable ROCK moment I have many concert memories, but two intimate experiences that were the result of dumb luck. The first was in Atlanta around 1980 when a friend and I went to the Moonshadow Saloon to have a few beers. We walked in to a bar with about 30 people in... | |
| Suddenly, Porcupine Tree I discovered Porcupine Tree from this blog last year when I asked 'Gon members to recommend modern prog bands in the Yes, Pink Floyd genre. I like "In Absentia" and "Fear of the Blank Planet." "Anesthetize" is a great song. I hear elements of PF, ... | |
| Sloppy but Famous Contest Some of my favorite artists compensate for lack of pure technical skill with feedback, distortion, and effects- Neil Young, the Edge, and Jack White. Of course, then there is Steve Morse who is a very gifted technically, but uses effects anyway be... | |
| Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks exit ABB I think that Warren and Derek will each continue to contribute to their own solo projects for years to come. They are both juggling touring schedules with 2 or 3 bands and also trying to raise families. Gregg could put together guitar players for ... | |
| Hot Rats I like the title track, D.C. boogie, and Montreal. Glad you enjoyed it and I am going to look up Sleep Dirt. | |
| Hot Rats For you folks that enjoy instrumental Zappa (Ghost and others), you should check out "Imaginary Diseases". Released from the vaults in 2007, it is a collection of jazz influenced live instrumentals recorded during Zappa's 1972 tour. It features th... | |
| Happy music... Zydeco music will put a little kick in your getty up. I like Buckwheat Zydeco and C.J. Chenier. Laissaz bons temps rouler! | |
| Duane Allman Raks,I love it when a plan comes together. |
