Whatcha Listening To?

I've been on a Talking Heads binge. We had a summer intern at work, and she and I had to share a long ride to a field work site. I told her I'd drive and she could play whatever music she liked. First up was Stop Making Sense--the entire album. Been looking up old favorites from that album ever since.

And the movie is out on HBO right now
 
It's been a long summer. Watching friends go through difficult times makes one very aware of those who you can count on. I'm happy to have a few. I hope I am one of those to these friends.
Maybe I've posted this song before, if I have I apologize, but it captures the mood well.

Don't stop there. Blondie, and the Ramones and ya got the CBGB's trifecta. To have lived during those times was one helluva experience and oh my the memories. Some of which are clearer than others...
 
Any Better Than Ezra fans? The song was inspired by the true story of Gram Parson's body being stolen by his friend and disposed of per Gram's wishes. A movie was made about it called Grand Theft Parsons starring Johnny Knoxville. To anyone that lost a good friend or family member in their teens or 20s this song is a real tear jerker.

 
St Karloff just remixed their LP
Interstellar Voodoo.

If you like heavy blues inspired Rock with a psychadelic twist. You will enjoy it. I think it is my favorite act these days. They are from scandanavia and recorded this session in an old Communications station from the early cold war era out in the wilderness. They have a previous version of the album that gives a rundown of their entire recording session with a history of all of the instruments and equipment and the interesting location they recorded at. Really interesting videos and music too.

I am uncertain why i can not post the youtube links here, but if you look them up they should work

When I was in high I didn't know a single person that was into April Wine. Sure, some knew "Just Between You and Me" but that was about it. I ate them up and to this day I still place them in the mix of the biggest rock bands of the 70s and 80s. When you go back and look over their music they really were a force in the industry. This song was by Elton John but I thought they did it better and I'm in the minority that Elton John did Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds better than the Beatles, so that ought to tell you something.
