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?

Hindemith's Mathis der Maler (Blomstedt/San Francisco Symphony).  Good audition track, ranging from full range lush string sounds to dense horn and woodwind orchestration.

Previously the Mozart Violin Concerto #5. Listen for the bows hitting strings as substitute percussion in the Rondo.
Thanks n80, I'll check them out. 

Badly Drawn Boy / The hour of bewilderbeast 
Knopfler - Get Lucky. Like Tracker and Privateering it is a lush album, well produced, heavy Celtic influence. It is probably my second favorite after Tracker but very close to CD #1 on Privateering.

Knopfler's VERY restrained but superb and understated guitar work on these albums marks him as a true master in my opinion. I consider him one of if not the very best.
Going Down To The River by Doug Seegers. Closest singer to Hank Williams I believe I have ever heard. No boyish Alt-Country folks, Doug is the real deal, sings like a man who has done some livin’. Emmylou Harris duets with Doug on "She" (written by Gram Parsons and Chris Ethridge). Magnificent. Buddy Miller joins Doug on Hanks’ "There’ll Be No Teardrops Tonight", and wrote the albums’ liner notes. Great, gen-u-ine Country music.
