Songs you can get lost in and you don't want to find your way out

Gillian Welch - I Dream a Highway

 

Arvo Pärt - Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten

 

He Loved Him Madly

 

Any song off talk talk laughing stock or the mark hollis solo album.

1983 Hendrix.

 

“Out In the Country” - Three Dog Night

 

In a lot of ways - my favorite Santana song. That song always moves me.

For me right now - I am hung up on Total Control - The Motels.

 

Poco
Nobody's Fool/ El Tonto De Nadie, Regressa

 

The Stone Roses - "I Wanna Be Adored"

 

"When" by Grahan Moncur, featuring Archie Shepp performing one of the greatest tenor sax solos in history. An intoxicating 12 minutes, peaking in sessionability.

 

A few songs that have loved me:

Tim Story "Map of the Warm Night"


King Crimson "Islands"
Talk Talk "Wealth"
Ryuichi Sakamoto "Amore"
XTC "Jason and the Argonauts"
Holger Czukay "Ode to Perfume"
Steve Hillage and Miquette Giraudy "Garden of Paradise"
eno, moebius, roedelius "The Belldog"
Buggles "Astroboy and the Proles on Parade"
Vangelis "Blade Runner Blues"

 

Wichita Falls-Pat Metheny
Cabinessence-Beach Boys

 

They don't come any more hypnotic than Never Known by the Durutti Column:

 

This.

 

Absolutely. Great choice.

 

Low Spark

A Love Supreme

 

Most of pink floyds catalog...

 

One right now is "Heroes and Villains" by The Beach Boys. The version from the Smile Sessions box. Basically all of CD 2 I guess. The song is so quirky and complex, I love it.

 

There are many but this is definitely the one for me - 18 minutes of sheer beauty with Marion Brown - for whom the piece was written - on alto sax.
