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?

Hey nutty - a couple of things. I appreciate the ongoing dialog here. On too many A’gon threads, it’s like people posting are just talking to themselves. No responses. No interaction. Like hollering down a well.

Glad you checked out that Zappa showcasing Sugar Cane. If you liked Keyzop, Sugar Cane’s Got The Blues would also please you, I think.

I’m not a huge Patricia Barber fan but the 2 CDs of hers I own are very well recorded. Great sound quality and some interesting music too. Good "side men" accompanying her. The 2 are: Cafe Blue & Modern Cool.

That YouTube link from falconquest is a bit of a revelation to me. Had no idea she was that good on piano. That performance is quite a bit different than the rather concise, more conventional song structures on the 2 CDs I own. The CDs focus on voice more than instrumental jazz solos. OK. Later.

PS - nutty - just saw your Spock's Beard "Healing Colors" link...have the Patricia Barber playing but will try that SB recommendation later.

N - Morning Phase is a beautiful album.  Sea Change is very good too.  These 2 are often seen as sort of complementing one another - but you probably already know that.   I don't own anything else by Beck but these two.  From what I've sampled and read, I believe they are kind of unique in his discography.  In my O-pinion, they are "brilliant" (to borrow that overused Brit adjective).  If you know anything else he's done that is in a similar vein, let me know.


Did listen to Healing Colors by Spock's Beard this AM.  It's a complex and sprawling composition.  Great musicianship but (no offense) it just doesn't do it for me...I don't come away thinking, "I have to listen to that again!"  Sorry.  Am not passing judgement on the merit's of SB - just reporting my response.  Glad you enjoy and admire them. 

To misquote Bogie, "We'll always have Glenn Hughes."
