What are you listening to/fav type of music

Streaming Charlietown Blues station from St. Charles, Missouri.

They played an artist named Angel Forrest, a Canadian. http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDAQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.angelforrest.ca%2F&ei=5JcTU_KtFsWG2wWCioCgDQ&usg=AFQjCNFXgtK0WcOdAVzikIjvSsM9D42B3g&sig2=7bYvO7ohbw8JZHgqPZVSMQ&bvm=bv.62286460,d.b2I

I'm big on Blues, old and new school and can't believe I've never heard her (that I can recall). 

Nice smoky whisky voice, matched with a great lead guitar from her band, great stage presence, excellent covers and original songs. Listen to her cover of Cry Baby by Joplin. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=angel%20forrest&sm=3

She covers, Joplin, Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, and others. Does a fantastic job no matter who she's singing. I'll be heading to the music store tomorrow for some CD's. Right now, I'm just clicking one after another on YouTube.
 
Thinking of summer, mixing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyEByZEuCa4 with some http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7HNJVnn9Ms mixed in.

Waiting for Sabbath in April!
 
On an old Judas Priest kick lately.  Updated my catalog with downloads of some of their 1970's albums I last had (ok, still have) on cassette.

I'd forgotten how solid Stained Class is.  Halford did a pretty mean live version of the title track with his solo band.

New album and tour in the works apparently...  ;D

In German, adding the indefinite article to "Berliner" means that you are speaking about a pastry named for Berlin, where if you leave it out, you are speaking of a person from Berlin.  So, instead of saying "Ich bin Berliner", which would have meanr "I am a Berliner", instead Kennedy said "Ich bin ein Berliner", which means "I am a jelly-doughnut".

I very maturely moved this comment as I was at risk of derailing the useful and informative Ukraine thread. 

I can't pass up this "Ich bin ein Berliner" reference which is a lyrical link to to one of my favourite songs by one of the strangest bands to come out of the UK in the 1980s.  At the link is Blurt with Ted Milton singing "Bullets For You" with the line "I am a doughnut, there's a hole in my head, 'Ich bin ein Berliner', that is what Jack said"

I believe it must have been 1983 or 1984 that I saw these guys play "The Underground" club in Ottawa.  I might have been underage.

Just finished watching "Manhunter", and the soundtrack is one of the best parts of the movie. Since trying to get it is probably going to be impossible these days, the best bet is to look up the individual songs on YouTube. Very atmospheric stuff:

1.    "Strong as I Am"        The Prime Movers
2. "Coelocanth"                  Shriekback                
3. "This Big Hush"          Shriekback              
4. "Graham's Theme"          Michel Rubini      
5. "Evaporation"                  Shriekback
6. "Heartbeat"                  Red 7
7. "Lector's Cell"                  The Reds
8. "Jogger's Stakeout"          The Reds
9. "Leed's House"                  The Reds
10. "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida"  Iron Butterfly
11. "Freeze"                          Klaus Schulze
12. "Seiun + Hikari No Sono"  Kitarō
 
'80s from the '00s.
Power Glove - Motorcycle Cop

Not too many '80s music here in 2013/2014. But Power Glove delivers.

Also check out Power Glove - Streets of 2043
 
After listing to Lindsey Stirling, I came across the "Piano Guys", who did some songs with her. Interesting stuff, their channel on Youtube is here:

"Andrew Jackson Jihad" People That Can Eat People Are the Luckiest People in the World  Folk punk band out of Phoenix, Arizona.

A lot like early "Against Me!" . Great stuff....my son is keeping me up to date with music now...I must be getting close to 50.

Good news is when "Andrew Jackson Jihad" tours this summer, i will be able to see them in a bar and he won't :)

Some really out there music: Insane Clown Posse playing the radio edit of Miracles. The lyrics and underlying message of the song is quite the opposite of what you would expect for most rap music. Enjoy:

You probably heard this great song before.
He does this one with all the feeling really well.
Hope you all like it as much as I do
