What song are you listening to now.....

[chickenhunter]

Thought I start a thread to get some music discussion going. Reply with songs or groups you just found out about. Maybe we can give each other some new (to some posters) music to listen.

I'm posting a song by a group my nephew told me about.

Turnpike Troubadours:

 

[BillyL]

Been listening to a few oldies ever since True Detective went off air . .

I'm currently listening to Ambrosia's Holding On To Yesterday, its certainly nothing new, but, it is some fantastic music . .

 

[BillyL]

I'm more of an oldies guy than anything new . . love to listen to the classics.

 

[BillyL]

Because I'm an old guy, there are songs from long ago yesterday that the younger generation have never heard . . . iffin you didn't live way back when, its likely you haven't heard some of the best stuff around.

 

[uncboy10]

The Brown Eyed Women from this Phil & Friends show, starting at around 56:00 is one of the best I've ever heard. John Mayer's solo at around 58:45 is straight fire

 

[strummingram]

I managed to score a sweet 1961 Gibson SG/Les Paul Junior last week and it is ideal for slide guitar. The only down side to this piece is Berry Oakley comes in too early before Duane's slide solo and kinda throws it off for a few seconds till they find the rhythm again.

 

[gunslingerdick]

This is the song I listened to on the way to work. One of my Dylan favorites.

 

[Louigi]

Sitting in dental office waiting room listening to their unknown musac.......

 

[grillheel]

"Choctaw Bingo", both the Ray Wylie Hubbard and James McMurtry versions.

Very cool. I've been wanting to get a vintage 335 but it will take awhile to save up the cash unfortunately

For our anniversary one of the things I got my wife was a coupon for any concert. She picks it and I'll get tickets for us. She choose this band called The Neighbourhood that is playing in Nashville in September. So I downloaded their album and it is actually quite good. I also kind of like this Cage the Elephant band she has gotten me into as well.

 

[HookUNC75]

I pretty decent rendition of Simon and Garfunkel's "The Boxer."

Both good bands Cory. Also really like Awlonation's new song "I am"

 

[chickenhunter]

I'm on a bluegrass binge. This group is from Raleigh/Durham area.

This song has deep meaning. Check out the lyrics along with the music.

I just heard that for the first time about two hours ago actually. I like it.

 

[coryfly]

I forgot to post videos so I'll pick out one from each band.

Cage the Elephant



The Neighbourhood

 

[tazki]

This is one of my fav's from The Neighborhood. Believe it is the first track on the CD.

 

[tazki]

Love this from Pearl Jam

It is. I like about everything on their full album. The EP stuff I'm not as thrilled about. Wires and A Little Death I like but most of the other stuff is just ok.

Been telling everyone who will listen about this band for a couple years now. Excellent stuff. New album coming out in September. I wish they'd come back anywhere near me....they almost exclusively tour throughout the small towns of Texas and Oklahoma.

If you mean the 1700s, then I agree.

By the way, Grandpa, all the songs I linked were released within the last two years so

You forgot to say "I told you so" about Cage the Elephant, though.

Did I rec them to you? Honestly can't remember.

ETA: Oh, Cory posted a song by them. I see now! Their first album was still their best.

I've still only listened to Melophobia. I'll have to check out their other albums (but I already know I'm not a fan of "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked.")

 

[TarHeelNation11]

I've still only listened to Melophobia. I'll have to check out their other albums (but I already know I'm not a fan of "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked.")

From their first album, you will like:
"Lotus"
"Judas"
"Back Against the Wall"
"Tiny Little Robots"
and possibly "In One Ear" (but probably not).

If you don't like those songs then wellllll I don't know what to tell you. Their first album is very rock and blues influenced with a southern twang.

They've progressively gotten more indie and since then. Their second album Thank You Happy Birthday was indie meets punk, kinda like the Pixies....which is fine, I like the Pixies. But that style doesn't suit CtE in my opinion. And then Melophobia is just sorta bland in my opinion. All their stuff since their first album has sounded forced and bland. They've even admitted they have struggled to write songs since their first album.

 

[chickenhunter]

One of my favorites bands ever. There guys blew up so damn quick. Im gonna post 2 video's.
First is a house party they did in 92 in front of maybe 200 people. The next is a concert they did barely a year later on front of 50k+ people. Dont care much for their political leanings but I love the music.

 

[HookUNC75]

Tom Morello is one of my favorite guitarists @chickenhunter Great choices

 

[chickenhunter]

This cat is from Garner. I just heard about him a few months ago. Great video and lyrics are fantastic too. He is all over Dr. Dre's new album coming out later this week.

Reel Big Fish -- "Beer"

Impossible to listen to this song and not instantly be in a good mood.

 

[ElizabethtownHeel]

Everyday i write the book elvis costello

 

[chickenhunter]

Not really a song but this is pretty cool.

 

[chickenhunter]

This is one of my favorite songs ever!! Video is very cheesy but song kicks ass!
