I find his voice very relaxing.  He really has a wide vocal range.
I've been listening to his different songs on YT, one is as great as the next!-

It's hard to find his original 60's recordings on youtube, he re-recorded everything in the 80's and youtube is full of those remakes.  his original versions are always a little better.

Her guitarist is her husband... foiled again!!! I did some reading up on her and she's performed with a ton of notable acts Beck included.  Where was that show held?

They made  a Les Paul tribute CD/DVD with a bunch of folks, Imelda and her husband/guitarist, lets see... Trombone Shorty, Brian Setzer, etc, and later took the show on a fairly short tour but without most of the bigger names that were on the DVD.  I saw their show at The Fillmore in San Francisco, and just her band several months earlier at The Independent in SF.  The Jeff Beck show was something like $85, just her and her band was around $20.

I'm too big and played too much hockey to be moved - people just bounce off.

She stopped touring for awhile to have a baby.  Heh, people can be so selfish ;D

Snorge plays 1979 from time to time which itself is a great song that brings me back and gives me sentimental butterflies but its nothing compared to this:
Mayonaise - The Smashing Pumpkins

Ah, the Pumpkins. There was a time in my late teens where literally the only thing I listened to was the Pumpkins. I had all the albums, plus all sorts of deep cuts, outtakes, live material, etc.

The closest song I can think of that would really fit as Art Bell era C2C bumper music is this:

I can imagine the first minute or so leading out of a segment late at night or early in the morning.

After a prog and classic rock weekend, I was in a power pop mood today.  The Posies did the trick nicely.

Ronnie Hawkins & The Hawks "Mary Lou"


Here's one of my all time favorite oldies. No this isnt the Ricky Nelson song you are all probably thinking either.
On a good night of drinking I can work my way up the entire rock spectrum from 50s gritty rock n roll all the way up to Slayer to Jewel. I'm an all around music lover. If its good, chances are I own it.

While I think I can make out Ronnie Hawkins - who even less than 20 years later at the filming of The Last Waltz looked like he'd stopped a Mack truck face on, proving Robbie Robertson's and Levon Helm's cautionary tales in that simply wonderful rockcumentary about the lethality of The Road - I can't recognize any of the future Band members on the cover of the 45. IIRC by that time Levon Helm at least should have been a part of the band. To your knowledge was he? Is Helm in fact on the cover (or someone else I missed)? And can you imagine what The Hawk looks like today? Lord have mercy....

I'm not really familiar with the history of that particular group. Funny story about that song though. I was at a flea market about 6 years ago and I came across a guy selling vhs tapes dirt cheap. I collect cheesy horror films and I found Prom Night 2. For 50 cents I was like, why the hell not? I had never seen it and that song was on the soundtrack. It drove me nuts trying to find that song for years. I was surprised I had never heard it before, I grew up listening to that era because of my parents. I'm glad I did though. Its a great song.

whatsup

I like most music, but the stuff I don't like is most of the pop rock for the past 20yrs. hiphop and gangster rap. Last month I downloaded some music from my friend and it took 7hrs.

Queen - Who Wants To Live Forever (Lyrics)
I really love the drum in this, has a sort of echoing ethereal quality, the entire piece does, it seems to enter and move throughout my entire being.  It's funny how certain pieces of music can do that.
It's better when you close your eyes and just listen....

I was surprised that "Mary Lou" by Ronnie Hawkins and The Hawks was put up completely on its own, without any knowledge of how Hawkins tied in to Dylan and what became The Band. Hawkins is the main figure in the jacket pic, but the only other Band member I recognize is Levon Helm on our far left. I don't recognize any other future Band-ers, so I assume this is right before Robertson, Danko, Manuel and Hudson joined. Hawkins is probably more widely known to aficionados of rock documentaries from the 1978 Martin Scorcese film, The Last Waltz, made at the Band's last concert on Thanksgiving Night of 1976, in which he was invited to perform some songs with the guys who used to back him up. IMO Hawkins looked awful in the movie, and I have to say I'm astounded he survived the 28 years to have this picture taken in 2004.


As far as I know The Hawk is still alive at age 78. So far he's outlived Richard Manuel, Rich Danko and Levon Helm. It's now down to The Hawk, Robertson, 69, and Garth Hudson, 75. Hmmm. It's almost like he has a deal with the the devil or something. If there's anyone who has a Death Pool on these guys, I wouldn't bet against the wily old Hawk.

Soon to be reunited with the guitar love of my life... should be here in the next few days... she sits so nice on my knee held up straight or to the side... this is the guitar that made me the musician I was in my "youth."  My original was quite basterized electronically by me and its previous owners... in fact wherever she is now I'm pretty sure there is at least an 8th of mary tucked into her electronics panel.  I really can't explain the utter love I have for this guitar... it weighed so much that when I switched to it from a lighter epi-strat I found jumping around on stage to be something more than a mere exercise of movement.... I can't even explain the feeling I get from gripping it's neck.  I loved my seven string when I had it and I loved how fat it's fretboard was...  but I always loved coming back to a thin six string neck.... especially coming from the seven it was like running with weights for a while then taking them off... anyways... sorry for my wall

MERYLAND - Barracuda

What makes this better than Heart's version? I think it is well done, I am just not sure what the point is. I go through a lot of my life like that. Also, I posted in another thread, I am curious about your handle. Anyhoo just askin.

Whatever.  Survive through ten seconds of the following steaming pile and tell me that. (And from what I understand Eddie Vedder is actually a pretty genuine guy, but that's beside the point.)

Chris Cornell doing this was the worst idea ever. Soooo incredibly bad.

Yorkshire pud


Three different songs, all of them great for different reasons..The last one comes up in quizzes along the lines of "Which Austrian band reached the UK and USA number one spot"


Felt: this might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's seen as an under appreciated classic in music in the UK. The guitar work is subtle and noot overdone but makes this song.


Running down a dream? I can hear this a dozen times a day and it will still make the hairs on my neck stand up, as will Aretha Franklin's  'Say a little prayer.'
Mike Chapmans solo is arguably the best ever.
