What are you listening to Part the Third

Retro revivalist prog -- this album is instrumental, but not all of them are -- absolutely sublime pseudo-classical album

https://nickjohnstonmusic.bandcamp.com/album/young-language

Instrumental rock -- about 50% vocals, loved this album -- really strong song- and melody-writing, not just another shred artist

https://negura-bunget.bandcamp.com/album/z-u

Alternating between ambient and black metal, I adored this album, the ambient portions were just beautiful, and the black metal portions just made my internal goth/metalhead very happy

First track is fusion, the rest of it is a party -- funk/synthwave/R&B...and one spoken word thingy -- just fun from beginning to end

Also-rans:

Cynic, Ascension Codes -- not gonna lie, this is their weakest effort, just not as good without the Seans, still a strong album, something weird about the production, though

Voices, Breaking the Trauma Bond -- varying between full-on harshes black/death metal, and gothy rock/metal, very much liked

I've never heard of Randy Crawford but Wikipedia says she has been more popular in Europe than the US even though she is American. 

You can hear a younger Randy Crawford on this.

If you listen very carefully you might be able to hear me in the audience (true story).

Raise The Roof

Raise The Roof
Robert Plant, Alison Krauss
2021 

Example:

 

I prefer the Alison centric tunes

This. It's pretty terrible IMO and not because of Alison Krauss. The highlight was hearing Robert plant sing Lucinda William's, Can't Let Go:

It's over, I know it but I can't let go
It's over, I know it but I can't let go
It's over, I know it but I can't
let go

...yes Mr. Plant, it is.

Listening to a playlist I put together of my favorite album closing tracks.  I've found myself really drawn to a lot of these songs lately and I don't know what it is, but artists really have a knack for closing out albums with some amazing songs.

This playlist on shuffle rarely disappoints.

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. Going through the takes. It’s… amazing. 24/192 on Apple Music. 

Take 6 of “Love” is, wow: this should have gone on the album. I also just realized that the intro is essentially the same as that for “Yesterday:” I instinctively started singing “Yesterday.”

Anyway. 

I understand why this is an out-take: it is slow and jangly and a little out of tune. But wow.
