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?

Boston, S/T
One of the best recordings. Interestingly enough, Boston wasn't a real band. The albumn was recorded in by Tom Sultz alone on a multi track in his basement. What a fantastic and special sound!

Tom was an Engineer and and inventor as well. Please view the links!

@nutty Yes, this is a great recording. If I had to have only one record on a deserted island (that had electricity--weird island), the chances are high I'm picking this one. I have seen Boston in concert after Brad Delp's death. They are a good show, but it is clearly Scholz and Company, and always has been. Rumor is that the record company listened to the demo tape and demanded to see "Boston" play a live show before they would sign the band because they doubted the sound could be reproduced in a live concert. After the show, the label wisely signed Scholz, although they would have been wiser to also sign Delp. It appears Delp's depression leading to his suicide was fueled, in part, by the fact that he was indisputably Boston's vocal sound yet in Delp's mind Scholz treated him merely as an employee. Scholz disputes such claims, which are made by Delp's family. Delp's vocal talent proved too much for one man to cover (such as the new Journey front man covering for Steve Perry). Boston now has two singers, one to cover Delp's lower registers and one to cover Delp's higher registers. The show is worth the ticket. Scholz still plays a great guitar and his organ playing continues to shine. All this makes me want to play that record....

Mahavishnu Orchestra "The Inner Mounting Flame" 1971/1988 Columbia Legacy Remaster RBCD
Eric Johnson "Ah Via Musicom" 1990 Capitol RBCD
Sonny Rollins "Saxophone Colossus" 1956/1987 Prestige OJC Remaster RBCD---This recording is one of my jazz favorites. Max Roach on the drums demonstrates that a small kit can produce big and varied sounds when a master is playing it. Rollins' sax playing is always full of life and energy.
Joni Mitchell "Court and Spark" 1974 Asylum RBCD

John Geils of the J. Geils Band was found dead at his Massachusetts home by police Tuesday, authorities said.

Police responded to Geils' home on Graniteville Road for a well-being check around 4 p.m., according to the Groton Police Department. Upon their arrival, police found Geils unresponsive, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The musician, whose full name is John Warren Geils Jr., was 71 years old. He is also listed as the homeowner of the house, police said.

Geils' death is under investigation because he was alone at the time of his death, but a preliminary investigation indicates that Geils died of natural causes, according to authorities. Foul play is not suspected at this time.

Further information on the incident was not immediately available.

Geils was the frontman for the J. Geils band, best known for the No. 1 single "Centerfold" from its 1981 album "Freeze Frame." The band is a nominee for the 2017 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.


Rest in Peace.
