What artist/band are you currently addicted to?

Skip James

 

Listening to a ton of The Hold Steady. I really am looking forward to seeing them again. I used to despise this band.

 

Continuing the TC frenzy, postman dropped off Thievery Corporation's Abductions and Reconstructions today ... absolutely love it!

 

Talk Talk. Took me a couple of listens. Now I'm completely hooked.

 

Tim Buckley
Freddie King (recently acquired both Bear Family box sets)
13th Floor Elevators and post 13th Floor Roky Erickson albums

 

Excellent. You might want to give his other stuff as Mark Hollis a listen too. Cheers,

 

I plan to.

 

Willie Nelson

 

This week....Little Feat..was 1st tempted on getting the box set but took out my early copies of the 1st 8 cd's and glad I am listening to them repeatably.

 

It's summer time.

The Beach Boys and some "Weird Al" just to break it up.

Currently spinning the "All Summer Long" LP.

Jeff

 

Coldplay

 

Mirah, what a voice/song writer and through my time watching live youtube videos I'm thinking with very few exceptions she doesn't really clean up the vocals in the studio sounds exactly like on the record

 

Currently it's Jerry Garcia - and specifically all incarnations of the Jerry Garcia Band.

 

All four solo Beatles.........again.


The reason being I am in the middle of a friendly email list of my top 250 solo Beatles tunes. I send out five at a time with a history, personal experience, album/45 artwork and MP3's. Fun.

 

Mostly this week I am listening to The Swell Season.

 

Dion

Del Shannon (Home & Away and Further Adventures of Charles Westover)

 

+1

 

Dolly Parton

 

This era of Queen

 

lotsa stuff I've ignored for too many years.

Spooky Tooth
Fairport Convention
Nick Drake
The Grassroots
Spirit
"A" through Dot.Com era of Jethro Tull
Marshall Tucker Band
Allman's solo efforts (especially GA and Great Southern)

 

Hmm... 6 months since my last post here and I'm back listening to "All Summer Long" (from the Beach Boys 1964 Copyright sessions thing).

But the wife has me on full-time Bobby Darin. Not a day goes by when she says, "Wouldn't it be nice to put on Bobby Darin about now?"

Me: "What album or style?"

She: "Anything! Along as it's Bobby!"

The past few days I've been on a wild Mark Wirtz kick: The Matchmakers, Philwit & Pegasus, "A Teenage Opera"...

Thanks Mark F. (how do you tag a Forum Member?)!

d'angelo: black messiah
miles davis electric
wynton marsalis septet era

 

Wishbone Ash -Live Dates

 

Sarah McLachlan - I've always been a fan, but never owned any of her albums on vinyl until this year. I was lucky enough to procure 5 of the OOP Classic Records reissues and I couldn't be happier. I started to appreciate her music more than ever before. She truly is one of the most gifted artists out there. Her lyrics, her voice and her delivery captivate me and I can't seem to get enough. I think I might even be smitten with her. .
