Today while working out, Alice in Chains

[smoker]

In the rotation today:
Nightwish
Soundgarden
Jinjer
Zepplin
Foo Fighters
etc, etc

[chornbe]

I'm currently shuffling through whatever Triumph is in my library. I don't have all (10?) albums, but a bunch. I do, however, have like 4 different versions of Magic Power, a song I freaking love.

I had the entirety of Foo Fighters playing in my earphones overnight the other night while I was working during an all-nighter to help the caffeine keep me going. Walk from Wasting Light continues to be a total anthem song, and a song that helped get me through some rough shit a few years back.

[Vulcanbill]

In the rotation today:
Nightwish
Soundgarden
Jinjer
Zepplin
Foo Fighters
etc, etc

You forgot Nickleback.

[Vulcanbill]

On the rare occasion that I get to choose, it's from a small library on my phone.  My go to selections are:

Metallica
NIN - Pretty Hate Machine
Linkin Park
Evanescence
Depeche Mode
3 Doors Down

If I'm somewhere with connectivity and I get to choose, I'm recently smitten with Home Free covers. 

If I'm in a mood, I like Blood and Whore by In This Moment.  But don't tell anyone. 

[viffergyrl]

Goodness. Right now nothing is playing, but when it is, it could be anything from Glenn Gould to Joe Pass to Chet Atkins to the Cars to Led Zeppelin to Korn to Dethclok.

With some Zappa and Primus thrown in for balance.....

PRIMUS SUCKS!

Note: because it's going to happen - SOMEONE, somewhere on this site is going to come down on me for saying it, and suggesting I shouldn't disparage anyone else's taste in music (which is totally fair given my eclectic choices), "primus sucks" is a thing.

"I doona thin' it means what you thin' it means."

Good friend Johnny wrote and recorded this song, and put the go-pro clip to it.
He plays the drums and guitar. (IMO not bad for a part timer)

At the very end it's me he is chasing.

Lots and lots of 3rd wave of Ska bands (Goldfinger, Reel Big Fish in the lead). Also lots of heavy EDM recently. Pendulum, Deadmau5, Adventure Club, Dillon Francis. Changeup is Huey Lewis and the News. I love those guys from back in the day.

OH! recent addition is a couple alboms of Morris Day and the (MF'in) Time! Funky junkies!

I really need to clean up my phone library though, or at least make some playlists. I'm getting to the point that the chaff is beginning to surface on my random plays, and I find myself skipping a lot. Currently at 4287 tracks to random through (306 albums and folder mixes). May be overkill.

So jealous. What I’d give for a high capacity player loaded with music. Downside of country life. Download means something very different out here.

I love Winona's Big Brown Beaver.

I didn't know your door swung both ways.

That's hawt.

Adding 20$ of SD memory card to a smart phone finally convinced me away from my stand alone mp3 players. An extra 128gb can accommodate a buttload of tunes.

I have been diggin on the 70's music as of late. I am I front of the wood stove now  with my 80's vintage Sony speakers on either side of it listening to the 70's channel on satellite enjoying a two hearted ale. Doesn't get much better. I love for the most part the simplicity of (actual musicians playing music that is not overly produced) and lyrics you can actually understand that usually tell a story.

I absolutely can get you.  I used to think of the 70's as depressing.  But now that I am in my early 50's I totally agree.  I love the singer songwriters of the 70's especially. But I always loved Joni.  With Jaco on bass you will never go wrong.

[Skee]

I loved being five, but I’m right with you Gary  Classically inspired harmonies on “pure” instrumental tracks and a good dubbel.  Most of you would not recognize what’s on my CD player this morning.  Mostly British acid jazz, like Incognito, although one could argue they’re French.

I can't tell you how many times someone mentions Primus and I reflexively say "Primus sucks" and it turns into a whole thing. 

I'm glad younger people listen to the "older" stuff, just like we did when we were younger, but man... no one's immersed in the music any more (it seems, other than the super radio proper audiophile). It all feels so drive by. I love that all the information you could ever want is at your finger tips, rather than having to wait up 'til like 11pm to hear an interview with John Wetton or Rick Emmett or John Entwistle on terrestrial radio.

It was good for me because that's the year I graduated HS and began the process of unassing that town.

Today it's back to the mid sixties. West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band doing Zappa's "Help, I'm a Rock", some early "underground"(as it was at the time) Steppenwolf, and  Eric Burden and the Animals album stuff....remember albums?

After shampooing the basement carpet, I'm now in the comfy chair in my study listening to Pandora's Celtic Holidays while drinking a Deschutes Obsidian Stout.  My wife is baking Christmas cookies.  The dog is snoozing close to the kitchen just in case something good were to somehow fall on the floor.

Life is good.

I'm really liking Pandora.  It seems that they can find the more obscure, or at least atypical, music that I'm interested in.  There's just not that many people who are interested in Renaissance lute music, for example.

Not QUITE the same, but it would have done your heart good a couple years ago... I bundled up all my old CD collection for yard sale (5 per bundle, 2 good on the outside, 2 ok, and 1 CRAP) and the younguns were FLOCKING to my old metal albums. All the original big 4, Priest, Annihilator, Death Angel, Savatage, Uriah Heep, Sabbath, Def Leppard etc. they were literally salivating. 

Not so much the Floyd, Rush, Fleetwood Mac and such... Their parents were grabbing those though. I was pretty surprised actually... I would have figured those going away quicker.

But it was terribly gratifying that the younger set had the fire for the old metal I was fired up about back in the day. I guess it still speaks to the teenage angst.

 Streaming don't work for me since I spend a lot of time in places with no connection to the WWW. I've been buying CDs for pennies on the dollar on Amazon, and ripping them at full quality. Automatic backup. Good thing storage is cheap these days. The old iPod is getting pretty full though. May have to look at an alternative player soon.

 Now playing: Metallica - S&M
