Massiv Attack - Angel

Had that album in college, great stuff. Teardrop would go on to be the theme for House MD.

Sunday night in UK, BBC Radio 2: A musical celebration of one of the world's greatest rock bands 'Queen'. 2 hours and not a bad song. PS please bring back the Queen musical 'We Will Rock You'. I saw it a few times in London, it ran for over 10 years I recall. One time i sat near to an American family, the Father was introducing his teenage kids to British culture: theatre and classic rock; they were very impressed!

Still being drawn back to the past: 1970's and Boney M.Suppose they could be described as Disco, Pop, huge in their time, in UK and Mainland Europe. Never had much 'Street Cred' as they were created by a German music producer Frank Farian, who was their main song writer and male vocalist, with Bobby Farrell miming on stage. Amazing videos on YouTube, music videos, TV shows and concert performances, some I've never seen before. A fantastic 1979 concert with full band has lots of hits, with a 4 minute + version of 'Rasputin' the extra long intro is wonderful, the costums and Bobby's dancing are simply just joyous.

1960's Folk / Rock classic: 'Different Drum' written by Michael Nesmith (who would later be a member of The Monkees). The most popular recording was in 1967 by The Stone Poneys with Linda Ronstadt on lead vocals.Just a fantastic song which Linda fused with emotion.Good old YouTube has the superb Carrie Underwood Live version, sung in tribute to Linda at the 2014 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The 2014 version has a more modern arrangement and supporting band, but Carrie's vocals come very close to Linda's, a mere 47 years apart. Wonderful.

I found this old classic Jazz record by Wes Montgomery recently, Movin' Wes that has quite moved me recently.

Recorded in 1964 and released on Verve Records. This album almost has a pop sound to it, similar to all those "Wes with strings" albums that would come out soon after, but it's due to him having a big band backing him instead of a small quartet.

I've quite enjoyed it. There's some strong soulful playing on this record. Wes always knew how to play smooth ballad tracks.

Zeke - Hellbender

These guys sure have a thing for fast cars and V12 engines! When it comes to hardcore punk rock of this sort I prefer it to be as simple and ferocious as possible. I mean, there's something absolutely brilliant with a whole album clocking in on about the same time as a single Pink Floyd song!
