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?

Ghosthouse,

Odd coincidence.

I just finished listening to "Mavericks" by Chris Stamey and Pete Holsapple.  I'm trying to work out arrangements for both " I Want to Break Your Heart" (Stamey)  and "She Was The One" (Holsapple) for solo acoustic guitar.  It's going to take me a while to sort it out (not great at that sort of thing), but it should be worth it.  Two great songwriters, IMO.

Hey Marty - 
Maybe not so odd, I've commented before about a "simpatico" in our listening tastes.  Thanks for the tip on Holsapple w/Stamey.  I will check out Mavericks.  Do not know much about that whole "jangle pop" renaissance, but I will throw out one song title and you tell me if it connects for you: "Needles & Pins" from back when it all started...
jangle pop indeed.

marty/ghost et al;
peter holsapple in particular is one of the greatest under-recognized songwriters ever; cursed, unfortunately, by bad lungs--he's a non-singer. if you can, find his "out my way", a remarkably strong set of tunes which probably sold about 75 copies (i assume marty was one of the purchasers). for the uninitiated, the dbs first two records are stone, time-capsule quality classics; among the best 80s records. goddamn.

Hi Loomis - Always value your input.  Thanks for the info about Holsapple and the dBs.  There is some Holsapple/Stamey on Spotify and also the dBs first two:  Stands for Decibels & Repercussion.  Got the cans on listening to Stands for Decibels right now.
