Re: What are you listening to? SANTANA - SHAPE SHIFTER - out today!!! Classical Music of the next millenium. Aspire to his playing.
Re: What are you listening to? ^^^^^^^^^^ Intesting. Just came here to say I am listening to Santana's new Album right now too. Very interesting arrange of sounds. Almost all instrumental!
Re: What are you listening to? Brazil's own O Rappa (pronounced "Oh Hoppa") Even if you don't speak Portuguese, they are still an entertaining band and PRS lovers! [youtube:hsnldcp4]qvKT4IS6gRI[/youtube:hsnldcp4]
Re: What are you listening to? I love this band. If my copy of 7 Vezes were analog, I'd have worn it out! I can't even see the album cover without singing the opening lines to Meu Santo Tá Cansado... "oh na na na, oh, na na na..." Once upon a time in on an island FAR away, I would rock an O Rappa DVD for some very special customers.
Re: What are you listening to? Somehow I've been listening to new bands that sound like they belong in the 70s a lot and I'm pretty sure most of their audience weren't around then. Mumford and Sons just isn't getting tired for me - more refined than the real 70s Sheepdogs might get stale, but you have to like a band that would record in Saskatchewan and they've been good fun so far - much better vocabulary than the real 70s
Going through some 7 inchers - MIke Watt/Chuck Dukowski Sextet from this year's Record Store Day - Eddy Current Suppression Ring - You Let Me Be Honest With You/We'll Be Turned On (AWESOME) - Wand - Haunting The Stagecoach - Broken Water - Normal Never Happened/Faux King Vogue - Zu - Observing The Armies In The Battlefield - Bardo Pond - Just Once/Don't Know About You
Today at work: Django Reinhardt: JSP post-war recordings, disc b Wes Montgomery: Road Song Black Crowes: Twice as Hard Now: Barney Kessel: Let's Cook! (my favorite of his recordings)
Steve Earle and Del McCoury Band "I laid my last ten dollars down, though I didn't need a thing Just to touch sweet Carrie Brown as she handed me my change"
Texas Troubadour Joe Ely accompanied by the great David Grissom playing a Standard 24. The sound quality is not great, but still a fantastic performance by David and Joe. I've always wanted to learn to play these two solos, but I'm too embarrassed to ask David for a lesson.
