Whats playing on your system today?

arcam88,

Just listened to Wishbone Ash "Live Dates/Vol II". I could not be more pleased! Not only with the music but the SQ and the set list.

The Ides of March  "Vehicle".  I cannot recommend this lp highly enough! If you like Chicago or Blood Sweat & Tears, and on one song, "Factory Band" there's even a John Fogerty vibe.....  you need to search this one out. Jim Peterik has one of the great rock voices! A great cover of "Wooden Ships" as well. It would make a great record show find. Actually, that's where I found my copy over 20 years ago.

Louis Armstrong

slaw,

I am glad you enjoyed the Wishbone Ash! Definitely a great live album.
As far as the Ides of March, I have heard the song "Vehicle", but not the rest of the album. I will definitely look into it.😎

so far today:

Wishbone Ash "Live Dates/Vol II"
Hole "Live Through This"
The Ides of March "Vehicle"
Iron Butterfly  "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida"
Dixie Chicks "Home"
Lucinda Williams "The Ghosts of Highway 20"
Ryan Adams "Ashes and Fire"

just to remark on three others, that stood out:

"Home"... I wanted to choose just one song from this lp that I could post on "Tune of the Day" and decided that they all were just too good to choose (one). The SQ is awesome. Songwriting is superb! Get it/listen to it!

"The Ghosts of Highway 20"... I've listened to this one about 5 times now. Not sure of the exact timeline... her father passed away between this lp and her last. Lucinda takes us through that process and comes out for the better. I cannot think of any other American artist who paints such a personal picture through her song better than Lucinda. Continues to just get better!

"Ashes & Fire"... This is the lp I would imagine Ryan would give us after his divorce. Such a beautiful, soulful record. The sonics are superb albeit, it seems to be recorded too hot for such an introspective outing. What a record!

I'm having a ball!
