Mr.TaterSalad Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 There is a world of great music out there if you just know where to look. This one came up on one of my Spotify alt-country radio playlists. What a song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who says there isn't good music anymore just isn't open minded or they aren't trying to find it. It's everywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.TaterSalad Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) The opening couple of lines of 10x10 smack you right in the face and the rest of the song keeps you feeling. Pony Bradshaw is one of many great lyricists out there in the alt-country space today. Hiding from that suicide Painting houses, getting by I read that book just like they said Tried my best to raise the dead There's cracks in the walls in every room Sweating and bleeding just like a wound Just like a wound Edited January 25 by Mr.TaterSalad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a less charismatic INXS covering a James Brown song to my ears. I like it and it's catchy but I'd be surprised if this blew up nationally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro sounds make comeback all the time and there are quite a few rock/soul artists that are getting attention. A hook is a hook. Black Crowes still sell tickets. But it doesn't matter. Their keyboard player got a arrested today (on the day of their album release) for some very perverted behavior with non-adults. It's so bad it probably ends them. I doubt the other guys even knew. This sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Our station plays a couple of songs by Elle King. I don't really like her that much. Then the drunken tirade at the Dolly show at the Grand Ole Opry - embarrassing herself. I guess it's not her first drunken rant on stage. Has a reputation for being very difficult and obnoxious and missing shows. Her dad is Rob Schneider. The apple IS the tree. I will always love South Park for this - especially for it's accuracy.

Biff Mayhem Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 If anyone is into ambient music, I messed around with this about a year ago. Took me a few days and I am sure with some effort it could have turned out better. Still, here it is as it was and most likely forever will be unless the ambient bug bites again.

Something similar for me. I call it my coma playlist. If I am ever in a coma I want this played. I also call it my “I don’t do drugs but if you turn the lights off and have a good set of headphones this could simulate it” playlist.

Biff Mayhem Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I play volleyball a couple of times a week and put together a playlist of songs with a high BPM to keep the energy level going. I included "Subdivisions" by Rush and, about twenty seconds into the song, a woman in her 30's asked if it was the theme to Chips. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sucks. Sounds like they had just hired this guy for their upcoming tour. Opening band refused to play with them and now the tour has been cancelled. I listened to several songs of theirs and enjoyed them. Hopefully they can get through this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, he was with the band before that, he's on the cover of the new album, so he was a full time band member. There are some other things in the wind about them that, if true, means they're finished. Shame, they had a fun sound, and no, it's not original, but what is anymore? Everything old makes a comeback at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My former boss and I drove from Baumholder army post in Germany to Sembach Air Base at 120miles per hour listening to La Villa Strangiato air guitaring and air drumming the entire time. Heck of a memory. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.TaterSalad Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I could usually give a crap about the Grammy awards. But to see Jason Isbell and Brandy Clark be recognized and win awards was cool. Isbell won a grammy for the Americana Album of the Year. Also cool to see Tyler Childers up for Country Album of the Year award. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMRivdogs Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I didn't catch much of the show but viewing the clip of 80 year old Joni Mitchell doing Both Sides Now and me reflecting on how the meaning of the song changes as we age was something special. Cudos to Brandi Carlisle for befriending her and introducing Ms Mitchell to a new audience. In fact I think I prefer the older almost tenor Ms Mitchell to the younger soprano version. The Luke Combs/Tracy Chapman duet was also pretty special 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Not sure if this was brought up in another thread, don't remember... but you have to watch the We Are the World Doc on Netflix. It's very good. One of the best things I've watched in a long time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Luke Combs/Tracy Chapman duet was also pretty special I’ve never been a Joni Mitchell fan apart from Blue, but that’s an incredible song. It was played at the Closing Ceremonies of the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver and also appears in Love Actually, so a couple of other places young people were exposed to it. Why did I think Tracy Chapman died last year? Edited February 5 by lordstanley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
