Good Music

[ab8ro]

Just a little something to break up the waste-o-time wanking about politics.

Here's a nice video.
Rolling in my sweet baby's arms - Earl Scruggs, Ricky Scaggs, Doc Watson (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH7Dz6mBjO8)


Ok, next...

[ab8ro]

Ok, nobody liked that one, how about this one?

Rolling in my sweet baby's arms - Johnny Cash and June Carter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8TbHmmEIvY)

...or...

at the other end of the tempo scale

Rollling in my sweet baby's arms - Lester Flatt (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stngsjVnsNg)

[n0jaa]

I prefer "Man of Constant Sorrow" myself. Particularly the version used in the movie, "O Brother, Where Art Thou?".

[ac3p]

There's a Peter Paul and Mary version of "Man of Constant Sorrow". Totally different melody.

I like the "Union Station" version better too.

[kf6rdn]

Checking out some new (to me) symphonic metal:
Rhapsody - Emerald Sword
Theatre Of Tragedy - Lorelei
Ayreon - to the solar system
Leave's Eyes - New Found Land

Pretty good stuff. Unfortunalty it seems the USA and the UK are falling behind when it comes to some musical creativity. These are bands from Norway, Finnland and Germany (I think) but they sing in English.

[wa4brl]

Not to mention Siguros of Iceland.


Can't get past the word Rhapsody without thinking of Lou Christy's melodramatic song "Rhapsody in the Rain" of 1966. That had rather sparse but very 'forward' lyrics for the era.

[wv6z]

Ahhh, there's nothing like the classics..... now turn this up!

Word Up ~ Woof Woof! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IxZQG-d3OQ)

[ve6wtf]

Turn up some Infected Mushrooms,
Or MSI?

[w3bny]

I prefer California Uber Alles The new version. Or some relaxing King Diamond.

I like it all...'cept rap! #If it takes talent, passion for the art, and a little discipline, I like it! #Rap doesn't even come close. #My opinion...I'll be watching for the hate mail. http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

AB8RO,

Wow - thanks for the Earl Scruggs & Lester Flatt - two of my favorites!

Don't have any links to share right now, but a few of my favorites are:

The Dixie Dregs, Yes, Little Feat, Bob Dylan, Allman Brothers, Tower of Power, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Emerson Lake & Palmer, ZZ Top, Rush, Robin Trower, Oak Ridge Boys, The Bobs, The Who, Bela Fleck & the Flecktones, Maynard Ferguson, Billy Joel....and so many more I can't name them all.....

There is really only one type of music that I don't really care for - rap. Other than that - if it's well done, I will appreciate it.

I'm not a rap fan for the most part, but, I disagree with you. People are quick to criticize rap, however, I suspect that most who criticize aren't able to even re-create rap, let alone create it. By definition, it implies that some have the "talent" to create rap, while others don't.

Here ya go, some better quality "rap", well "hip-hop."

Hate Mail? I'd rather send you a quarton of single malt!

Bad doggeral heavily laced with hate, violence and obscenity chanted monotonously against dull repetitious riffs in a barely comprehensible accent. Its anti-music. An evening of that and I would be emulating Renoir!

"And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in"
Lyrics from "Dogs", on Pink Floyd's album "Animals"

Oh, yeah. #Good stuff, that. #Reducing all of mankind to three kinds of animals; dogs, pigs, and sheep. #Cynical, to be sure, but an amazingly poignant simplification. #

So much of their music has tremendous depth to it. #Who would've guessed that Waters or Gilmour had such in them before Barrett went 'over the moon'? (deliberate misuse of phrase)

FYI, I did give rap a fair shake years ago...I tried, just couldn't do it. #To each their own I suppose. #I have listened to several of your links before, some aren't too bad. #Personally I prefer any "real" country/bluegrass, some new country, southern rock, most classic rock, and alot of the new stuff (3 doors down, Stone Sour, Papa Roach is a bit "screamy" for me, but they do have some good tunes, and a few other new groups.) #The list goes on and on...

Dire Straits
Trick Pony
Reckless Kelly
Jim Nabors (that's right, 'ol Gomer Pyle himself!)
Sara McLaughlin
Pearl Jam
Nickleback
Roy Clark
Trans Siberia Orchestra
David Allen Coe
And of course Skynard...listening to "Call Me The Breeze" right now....
As I stated before, I like almost everything.

It drives my friends nuts when I play a mix CD in the car! They never know what to expect!

True.

For me the tipping point was "Astronomy Domine" on "Piper at the Gates of Dawn", even now those pendulum chords make my back hairs rise!

"Dogs"...... That is one very deep, and haunting song. Back in the day, I used to listen to a lot of Floyd with killer headphones on. Makes me want to put my "Animals" CD in...

I believe I'll do just that! http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

I actually like some of Eminim's stuff. In small doses. That along with the Beastie Boys, (more "hip hop" I suppose)

Some of the antipathy comes from being stuck at a light with BOOOMMM rattle rattle BOOOM going on from the punk in the car next door. Granted, I like my metal loud, but mainly on the freeway, once off I turn it down to a comfortable level.

I'm thankful you turn it down, because, the way I see it, if I wanted to hear your music, I'd sit in your car.
