There are spooky people in this world.

Muse - Knights of Cydonia
(Jun 07, 2013 - 07:11)
Is this a Republican anthem?

Muse - Knights of Cydonia

Why am I envisioning a horse galloping across the plains?

Rusted Root - Ecstasy
(Jun 07, 2013 - 06:04)
I saw these guys at warp tour when they were a little side stage show. The Allman Brothers were headlining and Dickie Betts got on stage with them.

Sarah Blasko - God-Fearing

This happened before when it was called Edie Brickelle (SP?) and the New Bohemians.

Fever Ray - Keep The Streets Empty For Me

Who is this "we," kemosabe?  Speak for yourself.

 

I agree. RP is one guy and his wife sharing the music they love with the world. Of course they have favorites. So do I. If I were spinning the discs you'd hear Kings of Leon everyday. If you don't like it hit the PSD button and appreciate this awesome station! Thank for sharing Bill!

Sivert Høyem - Blown Away
(Jun 07, 2013 - 05:21)
I wish this song would get blown away. I assume people play something like this to inspire their suicides.

Chris Isaak - Go Walking Down There
(Jun 07, 2013 - 05:06)
Does anyone else hear a hint of Fogerty in his voice?

Bon Iver - Minnesota, WI
(Jun 06, 2013 - 08:50)
I am usually a fan of "different" and while this is different, I'm not a fan.

DeVotchKa - Till the End of Time

Arrgh maties, A grand singin siren she be!

Pearl Jam - Black (Live)
(May 30, 2013 - 07:59)
If Eddie Vedder farts into the microphone that would be a 9. Everything else is a 10!

Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run
(May 22, 2013 - 11:16)
Springsteen always sounds like he trying to force his emotions. It comes off as a rock n' roll act to me. I never bought it or liked it.

Family Of The Year - Hero
(May 14, 2013 - 07:29)
Simple, clean, and catchy with a unique point of view. I like it...a lot.

A Fine Frenzy - Redribbon Foxes
(Apr 29, 2013 - 07:21)
“The poet's eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, doth glance from heaven to Earth, from Earth to heaven; and as imagination bodies forth the forms of things unknown, the poet's pen turns them to shape, and gives to airy nothing a local habitation and a name; such tricks hath strong imagination.”

Massive Attack - Teardrop
(Oct 19, 2012 - 08:42)
Love, love me do.

Love is a "do" word.

Tom Waits - Get Behind The Mule
(Oct 19, 2012 - 08:41)
I wonder how many times he actually says, "Get behind the mule" in this song. Wow...

Coldplay - Clocks
(Aug 23, 2012 - 10:21)

As far as universal appeal and a timeless theme, this is one of the best songs written in the past 30 years. IMHO.



James - Laid
(Aug 22, 2012 - 08:32)

This band is seriously under-rated in America. Huge in England. I wish I could have experienced their music before they broke up.



Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World
(Aug 22, 2012 - 05:55)
I always liked this version better than Bowie's. Cobain really puts himself into it. I think he really connected to the song on a personal level.

Genesis - Mad Man Moon
(Jun 11, 2012 - 12:35)
I've never been a Collins fan...and I'm from the 80's! This is no different.

Josh Joplin Group - Camera One

Great run! Keep it up Bill. {#Dancingbanana}



Megafaun - Real Slow
(Jun 07, 2012 - 04:49)
The beginning sounds like Floyd at Pompei.

Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)

I think it's a perfect contrast. We live in a materialistic "dumbed-downed" society where very few of the young people are willing to do anything about the condition of the world politically or environmentally. They are aware of what is happening, they just accept it and keep on shopping.

Arcade Fire - Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)
(Jun 07, 2012 - 04:36)
One of my favorite albums of all time. These guys are wise beyond their years.

Cab Calloway - Minnie The Moocher
(Jun 06, 2012 - 07:26)

Jake and Elwood's opening act! Always a good time.

Muddy Waters - Got My Mojo Workin'

Great picks this morning! Keep it up...{#Cheers}

Coldplay - Charlie Brown
(May 10, 2012 - 11:40)
I'm a fan. I say give them a chance. They have a long career ahead. The Beatles early stuff all sounded the same. Coldplay has a distinctive sound, I don't see the problem.

Velvet Underground - Sweet Jane
(May 08, 2012 - 11:54)
Wow, compared to the Cowboy Junkies, this sucks.

The Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
(May 04, 2012 - 10:19)
The "Love" album made me realize just how awesome Harrison was. He was a great guitar player.

Jefferson Airplane - Somebody to Love

Jefferson Airplane - Somebody to Love

So far ahead of their time.

Sinéad O'Connor - You Made Me The Thief Of Your Heart
(May 01, 2012 - 12:18)
I love Sinead. If some guy told my sister that it was better to get AIDS from her husband instead of using protection, I'd tear his picture up too.

Vampire Weekend - A-Punk
(May 01, 2012 - 12:06)

"She took the ring from his lilly white hand. She showed no fear. She'd seen the thing before at Sloan-Kettering." Lyrics like that deserve a little attention...just sayin



Traveling Wilburys - End Of The Line
(May 01, 2012 - 12:02)
I think I wore this album out when it was first released.

Beck - Loser
(Apr 30, 2012 - 07:51)
The random absurdity of life. Nothing like this before and nothing like it since.

Eddie Vedder - Society
(Apr 27, 2012 - 07:59)
If you want to know the truth read the following link. I was in Alaska a couple of years ago and this is pretty much the shared sentitment about Alexander Supertramp.

Don't get the greatness of the movie, though.

 

     I saw The Crow when it was in the theatres. What impacted me the most was the bad guys. It was the first movie I saw where the bad guys weren't just bad they were evil in a rather postmodern way. As "The Crow" hunted them down, one by one, he utiized their own individual evil devices againt them to extract justice. Combine that with a head—banging soundtrack and you have an instant cult classic. Of course there is much much more to the movie than warrents discussion at this point.

Jack White - On And On And On
(Apr 23, 2012 - 12:51)

I've heard a couple of tracks from this album. It sounds really promising. I can't believe his range.



Sandy Denny - Listen, Listen
(Apr 19, 2012 - 07:56)

At first glance, I thought the album cover was Paul McCartney.



Coldplay - Us Against the World
(Apr 17, 2012 - 11:50)
I really don't understand the Coldplay haters. They appeal to such a large cross-section of socieity that their music is unifying. How is that a bad thing? {#High-five}

Carbon Leaf - The War Was In Color
(Apr 17, 2012 - 08:19)
Awesome tune. More bads should strive to use their talent to bring awareness to political situations.

Peter Rowan - The Free Mexican Airforce
(Apr 16, 2012 - 12:19)
I get the allusion, but the song still stinks.

John Lee Hooker - Boom Boom

I'm liking them more and more, maybe a purchase in the near future...



Dire Straits - Ride Across The River
(Mar 30, 2012 - 11:47)
This entire album is a time machine that takes me back to my senior year in high school. If I only knew then...

Til Tuesday - Voices Carry

Great 80s tune, could get enough of it on "Night Tracks"

Til Tuesday - Voices Carry

Love this song!

I remember I was in a cover band once and we had a list of tunes we planned on learning to add to our repertoire. I was the lead singer and we just systematically used to just check off the songs we've learned. We had so many one week that I just learned all the lyrics and bass part. We played this song for the first time in rehearsal...and all of a sudden we were at the middle-8 part...where she belts out "He wants me...but only part of the time". After all I was on auto pilot when doing this song....after singing that part...I busted up laughing and couldn't get thru the rest of it seriously. Not changing the gender in the song....since I was so used to just learning the lyrics and just running with it. Everytime we played that song in performance I had to muster up as much as I could to just sing the part and replace the word 'he' with 'she' without laughing. I managed...but I always think of that whenever I hear this song. 
 



Tinariwen - Tenere Taqqim Tossam
(Mar 20, 2012 - 11:18)
I give it a 2 because it has a little something going for it....but I don't care for the other 8.

Sinéad O'Connor - 4th and Vine
(Mar 12, 2012 - 12:37)
Great tune, love it. Cool

She tore up a picture of the Pope after he decreed that women should continue to have unprotected sex with their husbands even if their husband has been diagnosed with the the HIV virus. 

I agree with her and I have always liked her music.

Pink Floyd - Fearless
(Mar 07, 2012 - 11:39)

One of my favorites. If this was Floyds only noteable song. I would still be a fan.



Mazzy Star - Fade Into You
(Mar 07, 2012 - 08:51)
Desperation with an undying glimmer of hope. Like so many loves lost. Love it!

Air - La Femme D'Argent
(Mar 06, 2012 - 12:20)

This is awesome. I'm in emotional turmoil. I don't know if I should get it on or put it out!



Amadou & Mariam - Masiteladi
(Mar 06, 2012 - 11:36)
Songs like this really make me appreciate the new PSD button!Smile

Suzanne Vega - Cassidy
(Mar 06, 2012 - 11:24)
I really like this version. I bought Deadicated after hearing it.

Rolling Stones - Wild Horses
(Feb 17, 2012 - 08:51)
I wonder what the public response was to this album cover in 1971? {#Whisper}

Maya Isacowitz - Is It Alright
(Feb 17, 2012 - 08:43)
She's pretty good (6) but this genre of music is so flooded that singers really need to have something special that sets them apart from the rest. I just don't hear it.

Cloud Cult - When Water Comes to Life
(Feb 13, 2012 - 08:50)
This song has really grown on me. Of course, if you've never had to stare down that hooded figure bearing a scythe, you won't get it.



Arcade Fire - Half Light II (No Celebration)
(Jan 11, 2012 - 12:18)
This is one of my favorite albums of all time! It is a concept album and to get the full effect you have to listen to the whole thing. I can't get enough of it. It's brilliant! They encompass the entire spectrum of what makes up rock and roll in one album and the changes are amazing.

Band of Horses - Factory
(Jan 11, 2012 - 11:42)
8 -> 9 !

Coldplay - Daylight
(Jan 11, 2012 - 08:00)
Love them or hate them, they are one of the few bands, around today, that can fill a stadium. They have a universal appeal that draws in all ages and types of people. Their music unifies. That is a major accomplishment. I happen to be a fan.


Cloud Cult - Journey Of The Featherless
(Jan 05, 2012 - 08:18)

It's good to hear you playing some Cloud Cult again! Bring it.



Steely Dan - Bodhisattva
(Jan 05, 2012 - 07:51)
This was the first "CD" that I ever purchased!

Band of Horses - On My Way Back Home
(Dec 22, 2011 - 06:50)

I really enjoy this group. Thanks for playing it.



Rolling Stones - No Expectations

While it might surprise them, the statement would be no less true.  What we call blues music draws heavily from European folk music (swiss, irish and english influences are easy to detect), as well as Africa.  These sources converged and were blended with the slave and jim crow experiences of the descendants to produce what we call the blues.  Even the instruments show this international heritage.  The harmonica comes from the old hapsburg empire (germany/austria/switzerland — where it is called the mundharmonica, which translates as mouth-accordian).  The guitar and banjo seem to evolve directly from an African instrument whos name escapes me.  The washboard, washboard base are products of the inequality and poverty whose dickensian nature is a direct product of European economic and social models.  The blues use European musical scales and rythms, while adding syncopation, 'blue notes', and an improvisational character  typical from Africa.  It's no wonder that the blues are enjoyed internationally.

Truly, the blues is international music — both in its sources and its audience.

 
Is jazz world music because those instruments were also developed in other countries? I'm also sure that jazz shares similarities with other pre-existing forms of music. To follow your logic, all music would be African since the oldest found human remains were discovered there. Surely Lucy was the first to bang a stick on a stone. 

The Blues belong to America.

Manu Chao - Bongo Bong
(Dec 20, 2011 - 07:53)
There's a place for this song somewhere in a Disney movie.

Eddie Vedder - Without You
(Dec 19, 2011 - 07:52)
I love Pearl Jam, I love Eddie, I really wanted to love this album. However, it just isn't happening. If you really want to hear what a Ukulele can do, play some Yonder Mountain String Band!

Joe Henry - Go With God (Topless Shoeshine)
(Dec 16, 2011 - 07:46)
It makes me think of when Kramer modeled for Calvin Klien.

Joe Henry - Go With God (Topless Shoeshine)
(Dec 16, 2011 - 07:45)

What is the theme here? Terrible cover art? The last 3 covers are the worst I've ever seen.



Goldfrapp - A&E
(Dec 16, 2011 - 07:38)
Beware of the female pirate with segmented eyes!

Kenny Wayne Shepherd - Blue On Black
(Dec 15, 2011 - 07:57)
Solid 9 here! {#Notworthy}

Neil Young - After The Garden
(Dec 14, 2011 - 12:24)
There needs to be more protest music and less bubble gum hip hop that is distracting youth from the future they are doomed to inherit.

Keep it up Neil!

Ray Charles - I'm Busted
(Dec 14, 2011 - 12:01)
Perfect theme for this time of year. Man I'm broke!

Morphine - Scratch
(Dec 14, 2011 - 11:59)
Groovy {#Motor}

Dead Can Dance - The Ubiquitous Mr. Lovegrove
(Dec 12, 2011 - 12:20)

The voice sounds a little Bowie.



The Who - Who Are You
(Dec 12, 2011 - 08:13)
Love it {#Dancingbanana}. I remember hearing a story once about a time when The Who played a mind blowing set and The Rolling Stones refused to follow them on stage and didn't perform. I love the Stones too, but can you imagine that set?

Elvis Costello - Radio, Radio
(Dec 12, 2011 - 08:10)
I try to keep an open mind, but I've never been able to connect with Costello. I guess we are just on totally different wavelengths. This just sounds like noise with really bad vocals. 1

The Pretenders - Back on the Chain Gang (live)
(Dec 08, 2011 - 12:49)
First time I ever this version. I like it better than the album cut.

Mudcrutch - Crystal River
(Dec 07, 2011 - 07:52)

Evidentaly, crystal river never stops flowing.



The Tragically Hip - Nautical Disaster
(Dec 05, 2011 - 12:46)
I've been listening to the Hip since the 80's. Unique sound, great lyrics, lots of energy. {#Bananajam}

Yes - I've Seen All Good People
(Dec 05, 2011 - 12:32)
Yes is one of the groups that I really respect but have never been able to make a personal connection with. Owner of a Lonely Heart and Love Will Find a Way might be the exceptions. I've never spent a cent on Yes but they can groove.

Josh Joplin Group - Camera One
(Dec 01, 2011 - 12:25)
Sure, it doesn't sound unique; but, I still like it!


Billy Idol - Rebel Yell

The Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm

Dire Straits - On Every Street

To the one that got away....


Pearl Jam - Man Of The Hour
(Nov 10, 2011 - 08:05)

I love Eddie and Pearl Jam for creating paths through the places where I thought I would surely journey alone.



The Grapes Of Wrath - All The Things I Wasn't
(Nov 09, 2011 - 11:46)
What a surprise. I thought this was some obscure 60's band; then, I saw the release date.



Grateful Dead - Jack-A-Roe

Holy Grateful Dead day Batman! Robert Hunter sure can right lyrics. Did Hunter write this one?

I love RP! Having the opportunity to listen to great little tunes that no one will hear anywhere else makes me feel so fortunate. Thanks Bill.

Los Lobos - Bertha

I never heard this song before. After hearing it, I now know why. Yuck.



Alison Krauss & Union Station - Lie Awake

She is a Muse. Her voice is captivating.

Sigur Rós - Með Suð í Eyrum

The translation is actually in the album cover art. It means a bunch of assholes running from an angry crowd of listeners.

Michael Nyman - Drowning By Number 3

Very nice, now follow it with Cloud Cult. Please. {#Yes}

U2 - The Fly
(Oct 27, 2011 - 08:33)
U2 was just voted the best band of the past 25 years by Q magazine. I agree!

Tom Waits - Little Drop of Poison
(Oct 26, 2011 - 05:46)
I guess you either love this or hate it. I have not made up my mind yet.

Mary Gauthier - Mercy Now
(Oct 25, 2011 - 12:39)
I find this to be quite likeable



Pink Floyd - Us And Them -> Eclipse (live)
(Oct 25, 2011 - 11:42)

At the end of a trying day...Perfect.



Bruce Springsteen - Thunder Road
(Oct 19, 2011 - 08:37)

 

I've never been a Springsteen fan. I don't know why I just can't get into his music. Maybe it was because I discovered him in the 80's dancing on stage with Courtney Cox. His vocals always seem melodramatic to me. It's seems like he's forcing his emotions to surface. It doesn't seem natural at all. However, I respect him and his contributions. He  is to music what John Wayne was to acting.



Pink Floyd - Pigs (Three Different Ones)
(Oct 18, 2011 - 05:23)
Nothing like it before, nothing like it since.


Toad The Wet Sprocket - Walk on the Ocean
(Oct 17, 2011 - 09:04)
Great tune. Dedicated to the one that got away....


Nik Kershaw - Wounded
(Oct 11, 2011 - 08:40)
I know where you are coming from. Whenever I listen to "Another brick in the wall" I'm pretty sure that at one point Waters proclaims, "All in all you're just another prick in the hole." I guess that's pretty much how we all get our start.

This has me wondering whether or not, at least once in the song—e.g. around the 70-second mark—he substitutes the word "cunt-struck" for the expected "dumb-struck". I'm pretty sure I'm not reading into the song's lyrics (hearing what I want to hear, or what hasn't been sung), as I'd never heard the word before it spun my ear around. If the word is present—even once—then that's pretty brassy.

James is a great band that should not be under rated or fogotten. Play more!



The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night
(Oct 03, 2011 - 08:29)
I love the Beatles, but I could never understand how they could preach peace and not forgive each other.

Steve Forbert - Good Planets Are Hard To Find
(Sep 20, 2011 - 08:41)

I love this take on Robert Hunter's lyrics. It more the way I always imagined they should be played.

Pearl Jam - Just Breathe
(May 26, 2011 - 05:44)

Whoever said this guy is a sheep in grunge clothing obviously didn't experiece the 80's. Pearl Jam and few other bands were the founders of Grunge. If it wasn't for Eddie and the boys, we'd all be wearing neon colored parachute pants, have wierd hair, and listen to Cindi Lauper.

Blastphemous to say that Eddie is anything less than the heart of grunge!

No one puts more soul and personal investment into their music.




Syntax - Pride
(May 25, 2011 - 12:08)

I guess I'm one of those different listeners, because I love this.



Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill (live)
(May 20, 2011 - 07:11)

This is something I rarely say, but this is no where near as good as the studio version. I agree that he AND the band just seem to be going through the motions of an overplayed song. It's just not well done at all. 4



Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - Something Good Coming
(May 19, 2011 - 05:32)
Incredible


The Boxer Rebellion - No Harm

After this set of songs, I'm starting to think there might be trouble in Paradise!

Til Tuesday - Voices Carry
(May 17, 2011 - 07:48)
This came out my junior year of high school. What a great song. I remember the discussions about the bands name. It wasn't something concrete and if opened the door for whole new concept in group names. One of my favorite videos on TBS's Night Tracks! Any other Pre-MTV folks out there remember Night Tracks?

Iggy Pop - The Passenger
(May 17, 2011 - 05:53)
I think that's the worst lip sync ever seen

I always get this cartoon image of big fat gangster in a zoot suit pimp strolling with his cane when I hear this.

I saw an extended interview with the band. I really don't think that there is more down to earth, humble band out there right now. Even the lead singer said, "we probably won't go down in history for our lyrics, maybe some of our chords, but not the lyrics." I don't know, I think the lyrics to "Clocks" are pretty cool. I like these guys. One of the last stadium bands out there.

James McMurtry - We Can't Make It Here
(Apr 23, 2011 - 16:18)
Scary thing is that there are a lot of movies and video games about the apocalypse. It's almost like people want it to happen because that would completely flip the balance of power. Basic survival skills would far outweigh money which would turn into highly decorated toilet paper. It doesn't seem too far off.

Tom Petty - Something Big
(Apr 15, 2011 - 08:01)

When Tom Petty was in high school, he was trying to impress a girl he liked by telling her he was in a band. Of course, he wasn't. She promptly asked him if his band would play at their prom. He happily agreed. Between then and prom, he got a band together and learned how play some cover songs. He played the prom: the rest is history. I don't know what happened to the girl. I hope he at least got a kiss.

At least that's the story I heard.



Nik Kershaw - Wounded

To those of you who are arty-farty - go and live your lives of "oh, the tune is off-key" or "The lyrics are so maudlin.". This song is about something you'll probably never understand. I pity you, if a song like this makes you bored or disgusted. We're all entitled to our opinions, and mine is that this song covers so much emotional territory in such a short space that it's astonishing to me. I love it.

I love this song. It pulls my focus back to where it should be, and puts a silly grin on my face in the process.

Nine,for now, but I'm betting that the way things are going, it'll escalate to a 10 soon. Why does life have to be so hard?

I expect to take A LOT of heat for this but....

Ok, I like the Beatles. I think they made some great music. But, I just don't understand the magnitude of the hype.

1. Boy band from England makes it big doing teeny bopper bubble gum rock.
2. Boy band discovers drugs.
3. Boy band gets experimental and goes off the deep end.
4. Boy band falls apart.
5. The longevity of the entire band was only 7 years. (even New Kids on the Block was together for 10 years)

The same thing happens today. Except when it happens today, the band dries up and blows away, Then is quickly replaced by another money generating act. Also the fact that they had so many opportunities to get together for a reunion and never did, makes me question the purity of their "we are all one", "come together" facade. They tried to teach the world to forgive but couldn't do it for each other?

Her voice just seems to be a mismatch for the music. I love her voice but the music doesn't support what she is capable of.



Lucho Bermudez - Fiesta de Negritos

Makes me wanna grab a six-shooter, jump on my horse, and plug the speakers full of lead.

Radar - Sirocco

It got me moving around in my seat and I didn't even realize it.

The Cure - The Love Cats
(Sep 30, 2010 - 16:18)
This is the first day that I've listened to RP and couldn't get into it. If today was my first experience, I probably wouldn't put it back on. Just seems to be a really strange day.


Mark Knopfler - Get Lucky
(Sep 30, 2010 - 11:32)
Rag Pickers Dream is another great Knofler CD.

Alexi Murdoch - Some Day Soon
(Sep 30, 2010 - 05:30)
If you've lost your father and have faced the reality of your own death, this song really hits home.


Rodrigo Y Gabriela - Hanuman
(Sep 29, 2010 - 08:18)
Alright already. I feel like I should just put on a mexican radio station.

Steve Earle - Copperhead Road
(Sep 29, 2010 - 07:26)
I love the Scotish Appalachin sound. Great story and great song! They even work a short surf guitar rift into the song. Listen for it.


Pearl Jam - Just Breathe

Fine wine never gets old and neither does Eddie Vedder.

Buena Vista Social Club - De Camino a La Vereda
(Sep 28, 2010 - 05:54)
What boring world it would be without Corona, Mexican Food, Selma Hyack, and Spanish Guitars!

Harry Belafonte - Banana Boat Song
(Sep 27, 2010 - 12:14)
The last of the students has left, and I'm winding down the day...perfect song!

Ludovico Einaudi - Primavera

settles into the dark places and fills the void

The Dandy Warhols - And Then I Dreamt of Yes

Friday, end of a long day, perfect song for my mood.



Ween - Flutes of The Chi

Incredible transition, All hail Bill the blend master!

LOVE her voice!

The Beatles - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
(Sep 23, 2010 - 14:32)

I was a party (long ago) when this song came on and a friend of mines journey turned south, all because of this song...Here Comes the Sun picked him right back up!



Tori Amos - Smells Like Teen Spirit
(Sep 23, 2010 - 14:03)
Playing with my cursor's pointer finger and her nose is more entertaining that this song...

Amanda Palmer - Astronaut (A Short History Of Nearly Nothing)
(Sep 23, 2010 - 14:00)
The Chinese have a word for this type of music...they call it...CRAP!

Pearl Jam - Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town
(Sep 23, 2010 - 12:54)
If Eddie Vedder farted into a microphone I would still rate it a 9!

Rolling Stones - Jig-Saw Puzzle
(Sep 23, 2010 - 12:31)
Love the lyrics

Big Head Todd & The Monsters - Bittersweet

This sucks

Chris Isaak - Please
(Sep 22, 2010 - 07:38)
Forever Blue is another great album of his. "Baby did a bad bad thing..."

John Lennon - Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)
(Sep 21, 2010 - 10:25)
Liked John. Not Yoko. Anyone ever listen to Roger Waters' Pros and Cons of Hitch-hiking? He has some pretty harsh words for Yoko on there.

Joe Satriani - Oriental Melody
(Sep 21, 2010 - 07:34)
Just doesn't belong here...

Allman Brothers - Jessica
(Sep 21, 2010 - 07:25)
5 beacuse it's good but overplayed.

Pearl Jam - Given To Fly
(Sep 21, 2010 - 07:18)
Best band of all time! If it wasn't for PJ we would all still be wearing bright colored parachute pants and listening to Cindy Lauper!


Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - Something Good Coming
(Sep 14, 2010 - 07:24)
This group is aging like a fine wine...

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
(Sep 11, 2010 - 19:07)
I like Pink Floyd. I think he's great! {#Lol}  On a more serious note, no guitarist has anything on Gilmour.


Delerium - Silence (Featuring Sarah McLachlan)
(Sep 11, 2010 - 19:03)
Beautiful American voice, Spanish guitar, Franciscan chanting, tech-no beat, and it WORKS! What a treat to the senses.

I Monster - Heaven
(Sep 11, 2010 - 18:49)
I think I saw the album cover monsters on an old Dr. Who episode.

The Cars - Dangerous Type
(Sep 11, 2010 - 18:47)
From a time when album artwork served a purpose. I remember picking up "The Wall" just because of the cover. Little did I know what was inside would change my life. This cover could easily serve more than one purpose. {#Bananajam}

The Idan Raichel Project - She'eriot Shel Ha'Chaim (Scraps Of Life)
(Sep 10, 2010 - 11:53)
This would be great without vocals! I can't get past the harsh throat clearing vocals.

Alexi Murdoch - Some Day Soon
(Sep 08, 2010 - 18:10)
Best song I've heard tonight!
