The water running in the shower. I've got a Motley Crue song going through my head though (Ten Seconds To Love). Does that count??


Joel

 

Miles Davis: Agarta

 

A cheap Made in Korea acoustic guitar...

that I keep near the computer and sometimes play as I read email and TDPRI posts. (Yes, I am indeed multitasking.)

What I've been listening to in the car is a new CD by a SoCal group called Goldspot. Excellent stuff. (I hear George Harrison influences in their tracks, both in the lead singer's vocal style and in some of the melodies.)

Danny Gatton/Joey DeFrancesco "Relentless"
David Mullin Band "Revival"

This exact moment is Wake Up Dead by Megadeth.

 

Live 8 from Berlin and Rome.....

Led Zepplin - how the west was won (live)
The Cramps - bad music for bad people

 

Will Smith talking about how a child in Africa dies evey three seconds.

 

At this moment, it's the sound of the fan in the bathroom. I'll not go any further...

While I was cooking breakfast, though, I was playing a CD by a guitar player named Mark May. I think that's his name anyway. I'll have to check. I was at a CD store last week and picked up a bunch of stuff for 50 cents each and this was one of them. I bought it because of the Tele on the cover and I figured I couldn't go wrong for 50 cents. Turns out to be pretty good, if derivitave, blues. Plenty of standard shuffles and slow blues as well as a trip to Santanaland. But it's mostly Gibson guitars. I haven't heard much that sounds like a Tele.

 

Continuing the 'actual sounds' theme, it's a 2nd brood of hungry starlings outside my window & down the street calling out for their Mom.

Music wise, I've been enjoying the 'Fly Jefferson Airplane' DVD. Some great live footage and also some cool promo clips for things like 'Martha' and 'We Can Be Together'. I always knew Grace Slick was a fine looking woman in her prime but, until seeing live footage of her, I had no idea just how stunningly beautiful she actually was. Sigh.

 

The Lascivious Biddies

 

What's moving me right now is...

Donovan's Greatest Hits

&

Nick Drake's "Pink Moon" album

Go FUZZY!

Lately I've been listening to ME. I've got my producer hat on, trying to do some home recording. Go to the "Twanger" section to hear my latest embarassments.

Other than that, it's still been Count Basie/Joe Williams in the car, and also this big boxed set titled "Hillbilly Boogie" with 5 CD's of various artists from the 40's-50's. GREAT stuff!
