April 28, 20233 yr When Steve gives a suggestion on country music, I listen. Edited April 28, 20233 yr by robm321
April 29, 20233 yr Blessings and Miracles Santana 2021 https://album.link/i/1580765405 Example: Santana colab 2021. Overall I really liked it. There is the Example, which is just a bop. To some lovely things with Steve Winwood and the late Chick Corea. Warm Friday evening music.
April 30, 20233 yr Pittsburgh Matthew Stevens 2021 https://album.link/i/1616942712 Example: A Short set of complex tunes from Matthew. I will have to explore, but these were engaging.
May 1, 20233 yr Idle Moments Grant Green 1965 https://album.link/i/724724533 Example: Frikin' Blue Note. How were you so consistently good at making recordings? Just a wonderful recording capturing the magic of Grant Green. You know, the usual.
May 2, 20233 yr Heavy Metal Soundtrack Various Artists 1981 https://album.link/i/320264810 Example: Truly still one of the great movie soundtracks made, with only 3 of the 16 tracks not being directly written for the movie. Had to share the Felder track with one the great bass lines by Abraham Laboriel. And just for fun I found the score. I didn't see it on the streaming platforms.

For complicated reasons, "Vengeance (The Pact)" was written for the film, but not used, because it kind of ruined the vignette by telling the story in the lyrics and would've been impossible to write an animation to. So I presume #1 is "Veteran of the Psychic Wars". The other two? Me: a bunch of underground shoegaze: Momentary, Distressor Darker Days, Pale Shade In the Interim, No Sun For Ever Six Times (Vinyl Version), Another Heaven Solace, Hex
May 3, 20233 yr Correct on the BÖC - the other Info: Sammy Hagar - Heavy Metal - From Standing Hampton (Released as Single) Blue Öyster Cult - Veteran Of The Psychic Wars - From Fire Of Unknown Origin Journey - Open Arms - From Escape The rest were created exclusively for the Soundtrack, with two exceptions: - Black Sabbath's "Mob Rules" as present on the album, is an early demo (which I like better). It was later Re-recorded on "Mob Rules". - Trust's "Prefabricated" is English-Language version of "Prefabriques", which appeared on "Trust" (a.k.a. "L'Élite"). Tracks that appeared in the movie, but not in OST: - "Through Being Cool" (from "New Traditionalists" by Devo) - "E5150" (from "Mob Rules" by Black Sabbath)
May 7, 20233 yr Wake Me When It's Over I’m With Her 2023 https://song.link/i/1682394335 The one song: It is just a single, but I am hopeful from the image that there is an upcoming 'live at the Troubadour' release or something like that. Until then I have this on repeat for the afternoon. "I'm With Her covering the Willie Nelson song "Wake Me When It's Over", recorded live as a voice memo in January 2020."
May 7, 20233 yr Okay I could not help myself. Build Me Up From Bones Sarah Jarosz 2013 https://album.link/i/1440726347 Example: I just marvel at the talent of the three members of I'm With Her. Together and as individual artists.

May 14, 20233 yr Age of Apathy Solo Sessions Aoife O'Donovan 2022 https://album.link/i/1676379525 Example: Finally listening to the solo sessions of Aoife's Apathy album. It took me too long to get to it, but was very well rewarded with a superbly recorded set that allows me to just fall in love with her voice once again. It will become my go to over the full band sessions. Her and Sarah (above) just hit me in a way that very few others do.
May 17, 20233 yr Leftovers Le Ren 2021 https://album.link/i/1577419184 Example: Some more female vocals. I seem to be on a kick. Unknown to me but really was lovely. It gave me a Trinity Sessions vibe from Cowboy Junkies, with touches of Simon and Garfunkel. I know those are all really big shoes, but just to say I really did enjoy this set.
May 17, 20233 yr I¨m changing the pulley on my Perspex6 and doing some adjustments,: Jimi Hendrix: People, Hell & Angels,

May 20, 20233 yr Killers Iron Maiden 1981 https://album.link/i/1147158978 Example: Nothing like sleeping on an album for 42 years before giving it a good listen. It kicks Ass. The title track is a standout - but the example hooked me hard. I have to admit, if I had not already, I was a little turned off from maiden back in the day, mainly from the cover art, t-shirts and fans at the time. I was in the meat of highschool during their starting albums. So with all that, I never really gave them a chance until much later, and I was into different things (mostly jazz and classical) in the 90s. So to be able to come back to this and pretty much 'discover' these albums with 'fresh' ears, is pretty refreshing. No recommendations needed - I am pre-sold on the catalog. Things added to queue.
May 20, 20233 yr Lucky you to be hearing one of the most epic bands of all time for the first time. Enjoy!

You know, she listens to a lot of silly stuff (considering her background), and then delivers. She also just did Child in Time and the number of time she stops it, and...just hilarious.
