One more thing on the list of things we have in common. I could listen to that all day....

Gov't Mule - Dose

Love & Rockets - Express

Kepler Ten, a relatively "new" band that started life some years ago as a RUSH tribute act. Their new album "Delta V" is awesome. Here's one song off that album, it is titled "Time and Tide". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InadeS8RLSg

My wife and I listened to Jumpin' Jive tonight during dinner. Thanks for the reminder, DoktaP.

Charles Bradley - Victim of Love

OPM - Menace to Sobriety

Adrian Belew- Pretty Pink Rose

Just seemed perfect to pair with a glass of rose and the setting sun over the pool

Never heard of them...you can obviously tell the influence of Rush on the sound. Great music...don't really lie the vocals.

Tinariwen's Elwan. Amazing group from Mali. This is their latest release, but anything in their catalog is great. Mali desert Tuareg blues. Sounds strange, but there is no way to describe them that does them justice.

Think you nailed it, haggis. Through 2 cuts so far. Who knew landlocked African folk could play the blues like this... Can't sit still.

WTF? Seriously....?

Thanks, haggis.

LOVE the juxtapositioning: traditional desert garb of turbans and flowing robes, sand dunes, camels...and rockin' electric blues guitars. Pretty catchy stuff.

Jamiroquai

Joni, Clouds

Man, this is nostalgic for me. It reminds me of autum afternoons and evenings in high school. (I was one of them "artsy" kids, obvi.)

The Cardigans, Long Gone Before Daylight

I never tire of this album. Just keep it on repeat...

haggis - if you're not already a fan, you might like Ali Farka Toure - King of the subsaharan blues (possibly self-proclaimed, but nonetheless)

I have not listened to much of his music, but I have heard is excellent. I need to acquire some. Thanks!

Really fun stuff. I wonder if you (or anyone else) noticed anything interesting about the left handed guitarists...

Best of Joe Pass

Pixies, Surfer Rosa

Ryan Adams - Gold

Neil Young - Time Fades Away

My new meze 99 classics headphones. Bloody brilliant. Looks amazing as well.

Man, does THAT take me back!

I first saw them at the first major concert in Vancouver's new Pacific Coliseum (previous home to the Canucks) in the late 1960s-- Heir Apparent, Soft Machine, Vanilla Fudge, Jimi Hendrix, appearing in that order. The Fudge's organ sound and vocals blew everyone away (they kept us hangin' on ) .

About a year later, they returned as headliners, with a pretty amazing opening act: Led Zeppelin! And a year after that, Fudge returned again, this time as the opening act for... yup, Led Zeppelin, who by now had established their great rep. It was pretty interesting to see the tables turned that way.

I have not listened to Vanilla Fudge in years (decades?), but still have a soft spot for them.

The Monks - Black Monk Time

Flaco

Zep III
