I didn't realize you and many others were overwhelmed. My apologies. I own 5,000+ records,tapes and CD's of varied artists. One a day. Love the thread regardless.

Road thing, you are such a rebel!! Here's a band from the state that I wish would have had representation in today's superbowl: Minnesota. Little cheesy for some, but like Prince, this guy is a huge guilty listening pleasure of mine. I was underage in the early/mid 80's when they were blowing up the Mpls music scene, so never caught them live then, but listened to their music (Vinyl) all the time back then. Finally saw Prince in hotlanta in 2004, this dude was a special guest. Great to see that the great purple artist as well as the following performer have both aged extremely well.  Ladies and gents, Mr. Morris Day and the Time. "The Bird" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZZHK73iwTk "Jungle Love" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szlejykEhQ4 "777-9311" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAIldz08JzA&feature =related | ||

When I saw you list Tab Benoit, it put my mind in motion back to New Orleans. Geaux Saints! rt | ||

Fl girl- don't forget Jesse Johnson, he slung a mean axe for Prince and Morris Day and the Time. I think I still have a cassette of his. My $.02 for today: Robinella. A local vocal chanteuse, started singing at a bar in Knoxville called The Union Jack several years ago- she just recorded a new album with one of the best dobro players alive, Rob Ickes. Her voice is as unique and listenable as Allison Krause's. Great singer, good friend- check her out youn's!! | ||

+1 Janiva Magness. That's a new one to me and why this thread is awesome. Here's one of my fav. "outlaw country" artists, Steve Earle. It's funny how this genre and the traditional country stuff (Haggard, Johnny Cash, Waylon and Willie) has grown on me since I disliked country when I was growing up. If you have heard anything by him, chances are it is the first song here. I love the mandolin in it. "Copperhead Road"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvaEJzoaYZk "I Feel Alright" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhj5Y4gG1Ss "Guitar town" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AINUPFbFpqg&feature =channel | ||

+1, David Lindley- he gets some play on my fave station, WDVX. +1, Steve Earle- youn's need to listen to his newer stuff. "Sparkle and Shine" is ab fab. Don't forget about Justin Townes Earle- a chip off the old block... OK, now this guy aint too obscure, but mebbe- Robert Earl Keen. Check out "The Jackal and the Armadillo" for a whupass song, also "The Road Goes On Forever". Both are good ear candy for us bike nuts... Oh yeah, can't forget "Feelin Good Again"- Keen's got some great stuff. | ||

Today I'd like to share with you a killer 70's band from across the pond that was much more popular over there than here.Awesome twin leads.

Wow, nice pants on that guitarist, S3ters in that "Jailbait" video! The 70s sure had some rockin' fashions. Feelin' like a little bluegrass today. Trying to figure out what to do on next weeks vacation-projects around the house or maybe a ride to GA to break the Uly in properly. While we ponder, here's some mountain music by Nickel Creek. Awesome mandolin playing. I think they've played the "corporate" venues in Orlando, and as much as I like the band couldn't stomach seeing another show there. "Smoothie song" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1evjlMpiV4&NR=1 "This side" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1l5O8ZLg4Y "Reasons why" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lyZQB1H_Zw | ||

Guitar Shorty The stuff on youtube is poor quality, but check him out on Pandora or itunes. "Let My Guitar Do the Talking" or "The Right Tool for the Job" are my favorites of his. +1 on Robert Earl Keen. "Copenhagen" rt | ||
| 86129squids |
+1, good bluegrass or REAL (not Nashville) country. Once again, give WDVX a listen- they webcast, most computers should let you catch their ear candy. How bout Susan Tedeschi? Great blues from this woman, plus she's married to Derek Trucks. rt- IIRC, Guitar Shorty came and played a blues bar real close to home- I missed the show, darn it. Got the too damn much crappy weather winter blues... | ||
| Fltwistygirl |
Wow 86129, haven't heard Susan Tedeschi's name in a long time. Folks in my former company's Midwest offices (IN, OH and WI) worshipped her. I didn't realize she was Mrs. Derek Trucks. I'm right there with you on the crappy weather. Winters in FL are the best part of living here and this one has been ugly by FL standards. It seems we have a cold front then a washout, every 3-4 days. Gotta 10 year old climbing walls with cabin fever. EL NINO sucks!!! | ||

Belinda, I've been a Steve Earle fan for many years, if you like his mandolin work check out his acoustic album, "Train a Comin" also the live version of "Galway Girl" with Sharon Shannon is sublime. Sticking with the Celtic folk/rock feel, here's Sonerien Du, I've seen them live a good number of times always a good show. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3ur22_sonerien-d u-1_music | ||

Was at my favorite bar last nite for happy hour- later in the evening they had Larry McCray and his band playing some serious blues. I'd seen him a few years ago when I bartended there- should've stayed, but with the GF at home and few $$$ to spend, I passed. The guy can PLAY! | ||

Today I'm throwing out the band SPOOKY TOOTH. Formed in England in the late 60's it's lineup was constantly changing.Some members cams from or went on to play w/ Joe Cocker,Humble Pie,Mott the Hoople and Foreigner and of course Gary Wright whose hit "Dreamweaver" is a staple on FM classic rock.One of the first rock bands with dual lead keyboards. That was only yesterday http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGxRstWAZBc I'm Alive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqMhw60aKjw Hell or High Water http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPxCEauVKT0 The Mirror http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcVXYXg5fyQ | ||

Thanks, y'all, for giving me new suggestions for my mp3 play list. Here's another Minneapolis based band with a unique jazzy twist on a couple favorite songs, The New Standards. This band formed after "The Suburbs" were no longer. Big props to my MPLS-based ex-B-I-L for introducing me to music outside the stuff you hear on the classic rock stations. I guess he facilitated a kind of a music-intervention for me back in h.s. He was good friends with the Suburbs in their hey-day, and got me to expand my horizons musically and put down that can of aquanet. Had that not happened, I'd probably still be hanging only with my same old h.s. buddies, listening to Poison, and instead of armour, be wearing studded pink chaps with matching fingerless gloves, and riding a blinged out softtail. Guess that's ok for some, just not for me. I recognized the last song on Minneapolis local TV when I was up there over the holidays. My first reaction was "WTH are they doing?" but as I listened to more of their work, it grew on me. Love the xylophone! Hope to catch them live this summer. Unique take on "London Calling"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_U78YNzXYtI&feature =related "Hey Ya" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3JRIo3NWJ4 "Snow Days" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-o3MR67h2MY | ||

Anyone else watching the winter Olympics? We watched the opening ceremonies last night, so I thought I'd post a couple bands from my favorite non-U.S. countries, starting with SWEDEN. Look forward to visiting my relatives there there someday. The cold I've been fighting for the past 2 weeks finally caught up to me. But no matter how crappy I feel, these guys always lift my mood. From Sweden, THE HIVES "Try It Again"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9JFZUo7ZiI "Won't be Long" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMGAiF7T4wA&feature =related "Dead Quote Olympics"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0voFdZHmBY0&feature =related | ||

I stumbled across these guys in an obscure thread in "jomama" on advrider featuring a video of the restoration of the lead guitarist's guitar. The band is "Dr. Feelgood" who were part of the "pub rock" scene in England in the early 70's, apparently sort of pre-punk. The lead guitarist Wilko Johnson (real name John Wilkinson) has a very interesting strumming/picking technique: "She Does It Right" "Roxette" "Riot in Cell Block #9" |
