How about some good music links?

[Doug D]

From 1994. Grunge had killed hair metal, and was now consuming most of the record companies' resources. Electric blues was trying to survive the loss of SRV, in the form of artists like KWS, Jeff Healey and others. This band from England, The Hoax, by all rights should have knocked it out of the park with this debut album. But it just didn't happen for them. I bought the CD off a strong music magazine review. It's well-produced, with the ambience of a small club. No new ground broken, really, but the execution and musicianship is remarkable. The first half is full steam ahead, then dialed down for an epic 10 minute slow jam before resuming. Playlists can't be embedded, so here's the link to the full album:

The Harp Twins are classically trained harpists with a delightful range of musical tastes. While I do quite enjoy their covers (hard rock & metal, their rendition of the Immigrant Song is wonderful,) their original music is even better, IMO. They've combined forces with the Volfgang Twins both in the studio and on tour. All 4 of them are outstanding musicians, and will certainly be picking up some of their albums. At first glance, their niches will appear to be rather silly. After their first performance, I completely revised my opinion. Edit: They are highly accomplished and talented people.

They have stuff on Youtube, and pretty much all of the streaming services.

Full disclosure: I helped out with tech at their shows this last weekend. Great people to work with and listen to.

Had Boz in the background last night, but this song got cranked up when it came on

Oooooh, and it'll be all right...

Somehow rock 'n' roll always comes back to a Telecaster and some Marshall stacks.

This is one of my newer vinyls in my collection.
Collection is close to hitting a " round " number.......getting close.......
Found it sealed in an antique retailer........Album was released in 1972.
My copy may have been from 72 or 73...,,it is irrevelevant of course.
Turned out to be a really good bit of tunes cover to cover.

A little ZZ. I like the lyrics. I like the way the lyrics are only in the first minute of the song, and then the guitar gets loose and just goes. That's rare. It's impossible not to tap your foot or nod your head. And then the last 50 secs, it's the same rhythm over and over and over, and yet it still works.

Anything Duane is always a treat

I always think about Gordon Lightfoot this time of year, probably because the SS Edmund Fitzgerald sank 11/10/75 and his song always brings me back to that day

Gordy is one of our fav's.....I think I have 5 or so of his records but he has a boat load available.

Just rocking out to this one now.....how dare they put commercials in the middle of this song!

It’s good but I would put a bunch of other albums by Floyd ahead….
I am old school Floyd….Syd was a different guy but the old stuff is where it is at for me.
