Okay, I could have sworn one of you posted this here recently ...
First listen for me and it's AMAZING!
The story behind the making of the actual recording is amazing as well!

I haven’t listened to that recently, so doubt I’ve posted it, but it is AMAZING! One of my favorite records of all time. And yes, the story behind it is really something!Okay, I could have sworn one of you posted this here recently ...

Pharaoh Sanders collabs
(Talk about an insane pairing...Sonny Sharrock plus Sanders!)
(Sharrock with Sanders and Elvin Jones!)
(this sounds a little dated now but the tracks featuring Jah Wobble's dub bass with Sanders layered on top are still interesting)
(Sanders always kept moving forward. Floating Points is a DJ and electronic music artist.)

EweTube just served up this from one of my favorite rock bands, Heart. Its a performance on "Midnight Special", which normally featured popular band miming to their own records, but I'm pretty sure this one is completely live. Crack band (in more ways than one), outstanding vocalists, and three talented guitarists who knew how to play as a band, and not step all over each other (as, say, LS (I won't spell that out just yet)). Enjoy!
So I joined, "1001 Albums You Must Hear before You Die" yesterday.
The first LP, which I shared on here, was by Keith Jarrett - The Köln Concert

The second was by The Pixies -Surfer RosaAt first I thought you meant this...
...but when I saw in my copy that Moon recommends Doolittle, not Surfer Rosa, I searched and found (cue Nigel Tufnel) yours goes to 1,001.

BTW if you like these sorts of books, I strongly recommend This is Uncool and Fear of Music by Garry Mulholland, both for the musical selections and for Mulholland's writing. He has very good taste—well, of course I would say that because I agree with him most of the time, ha ha—and, unlike a lot of rock music writers, has a highly personal and emotional style that steers clear of fanboi/fangrrrl-ism.

There is an actual website...
Back 'atcha...looks like this one is really live too.
And funny because maybe 70s FM-radio rock is "trending" now (are bands like Styx, Nazareth, Kansas, and Black Oak Arkansas going to make a comeback? Time for Levis to start making bell bottoms again and fringed vest manufacturers to gear back up!).
I need something atmospheric and relaxing. So I have opted for Jon Hopkins, Music For Psychedelic Therapy.
I felt in the mood for some Unknown Mortal Orchestra this morning, and I am enjoying Multi-Love.
Spent some of today listening to Dire Straits, Jethro Tull, and the Moody Blues among others.
Lots of baseball for Darby, with Billy Idol or Elvis lip, and I to watch while listening to records. Neil Diamond is up, more to follow.

My nightly routine of putting “Ari’s Funhouse” on. In LUJE today (and Monday) we worked on Bert’s Playground and Green Spleen. Tomorrow, we’re going to finish putting together Green Spleen, and for next Monday, practicing Lines of Oppression on our own. By next week we will have all of them except Arrows and Loops.
