  1. The best live Blues album I've ever heard and one of the best life any-kind-of albums I've ever heard. James had the audience in the palm of his hand. Listen to him tease them with song titles woven into sentences or short lines only go into another song so that later when he dies those same songs the crowd goes wild. Listening this one over and over again, not just for the music (which is great) but for the way James controls the audience is school for musicians. Live At The Apollo 1962 - James Brown & The Famous Flames
  2. We males are too easy for that kind of a scam. The same thing can happen in New York or Los Angeles.
  3. Lachto Drom (Safe Journey) - various artists Very different and entertaining "Gypsy" music from India to Spain I especially like the Romanian (Taraf de Haidouks) and French segments
  4. Acid Rain - Lorn This is one weird video (can't say much for the music though)
  5. Just don't leave any pieces laying around on the floor. Sorry dad, my synth just dropped a plug-in.
  6. Don't wake me up: I Wanna Be Sedated - Ramones
  7. I like this thread, it exposes me to music I didn't know existed, some of which I enjoyed immensely. Some more variety. Putumayo puts out some unusual stuff, always well produced. Here is one of my favorites. An Afro-Portuguese Oddyssey - various artists
  8. Why are bagpipe players always marching? To get away from the noise.
  9. Handkerchief? What's that? Nobody I know uses those anymore, instead they throw away dead tree membranes. That's snot nice.
  10. One silly Christmas song deserves another: Spike Jones But a better Spike Jones song is:
  11. Not to forget some good guitar. This show convinced me that Jeff Beck is the most technically accomplished rock guitarist alive. The camera operators and editors must be guitarists, because whenever Jeff does something super-human, they zero in on the hands. And Tal Wilkenfeld is too cute and young looking to be the monster bass player that she is. Live At Ronnie Scott's - Jeff Beck
  12. Back On The Chain Gang - The Pretenders
  13. When you're normal, you tend to have normal friends, and that's twice as boring.
  14. One of my very favorite Stan Getz albums. And that leads to another favorite sax player, Stanley Turrentine. Salt Song - Stanley Turrentine
