Dirty Angels - Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye. This song was a hit back in the mid-70's. My buddy Charlie Karp was in the band although I wouldn't get to know him for many years. I still remember hearing "Tell Me" on the radio while sitting in traffic on the Tappan Zee Bridge. I dug it then, too!

I've been listening to a lot of newer bands and performers, including Local Natives, Sam Fender, The Weeks, The National, Tame Impala, etc.
Rock is very much alive--this kind ain't SRV or hair guitar. I guess what I'm listening to would be considered indie? I don't know. It's good music.
Good ones!
Willie, have you checked out Rival Sons, Orchid and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club? Pretty good ones too.
Whoa, I didn't know those guys! Listening right away!Quote:

Oh there was a Guitar World forum? Cool, I never knew that. I wish I had enrolled too. I loved that magazine back in the 90s.Quote:

Marc Cohn and the Blind Boys of Alabama - "Work to Do" - a really cool live album. More keyboards than guitar, but hey....
Eric Gales! Wow!

Joe Walsh "The smoker you drink, the player you get" Haven't listened to that since I had it on vinyl, I think.

I was testing a new set of headphones (Bose 700s) and put this album on. One of my all-time favorites but I hadn't listened for a long time. Awesome recording - great songs. https://scontent.fbed1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...73&oe=5E0261B5
Inspired by a Facebook post, I'm re-visiting one of my all-time favorite bands of the 60s and 70s: Steppenwolf. To my surprise, still going strong today.
And check out the Ric!

Been revisiting Ravi Shankar's Ragas these last couple of days. Soothing and epic at the same time, I especially recommend his "Living Room sessions".

I rediscovered this album this morning. Saw this band at a free concert in in Baltimore Inner Harbor a number of years ago and they RAWKED! Good tunes!
Learning and practicing Robert Johnson's Crossroads today so I was listened to this a good bit.

I've been listening to a lot of indie pop rock lately. Tonight I was digging Creature Comfort's "Am I Dreaming," Illiterate Light's "Better Than I Used To," Wilco's "Love is Everywhere"--great melodic songs. Good arrangements, well-written and -produced stuff.
