SRV is so good.
That made me remember an old performance from Danny Gatton’s Redneck Jazz Explosion band, a name that could not better describe their sound.

SRV’s story is so tragic. Just as he was reaching his peak after quitting coke, he dies in a helicopter crash 
Insane player

Ever since watching Koyaanisqatsi I’ve been a big enjoyer of some of Glass’s music. It’s a bit of a shame that those who got inspired by him (Hans Zimmer), never really hit the spot quite right.

Glass’ music can be mesmerizing.
I was fortunate to hear him a number of years ago accompanying the 1931 film “Dracula.” The old film had limited dialog/sound and was a perfect fit for the score.
Glass and his ensemble were behind a semi-opaque screen. When the backstage lights were brought up you could see the band, when darkened the movie was all you could see.

Listening to Boris’ Pink album while debating if I want to go see them on Friday (I do, in fact, want to, but I have been so insanely busy on the weekends lately and this weekend is no exception)

PG grows on you. A few decades back, when I first heard one of Glass’ compositions, I didn’t really like the repetitive nature of his motifs, but since, I’ve purchased a few of his CDs over the years. This was one of the first pieces of his that I’ve listened to back then by the way and I still like it. Thanks for sharing.

Neil Young is probably my favorite musician and a personal hero of mine. I don’t love all of his music, I don’t agree with everything he’s done, and the PONO was a stupid looking.
But I hope when I’m his age I’m equally as uncompromising about things. From the man who quickly wrote “Ohio” in response to the Kent State shootings over 50 years ago, l can’t imagine how tiring it must be to be feeling those same things today.

Definitely Neil Young’s protest songs are among the ones that have stood the test of time. Unfortunately, they are becoming increasingly relevant in recent years.

If you’re into Philip Glass, give Steve Reich a listen - especially Music for 18 Musicians. I had the chance to see it live once, and it was an incredible experience.

Heard of Steve Roach but not Steve Reich; will search for him when I get back from work (since I’m about to get ready for work now).

I have a Halloween playlist that I’ve put together for a while now. I try to add one or two pieces each year, but it’s getting hard to find more songs with the right mood and aren’t novelty or overplayed songs. Here are a few selections:

I’ve always maintained Mystery to Me is one of Fleetwood Mac’s three best albums, with Future Games and Bare Trees. Danny Kirwan and Bob Welch were much better than Buckingham and Christie McView’s voice was vastly more interesting than Nicks. Miles Away, Sands of Time, Bare Trees, The Ghost… all killer tunes (and Hypnotized).

I think its interesting that so many people don’t know anything about Fleetwood Mac before the albums with Lindsey and Stevie. They were pretty much two groups with a large rotation of players, held together with a common thread of a lot of interpersonal drama. It sure worked for them.

It’s actually the other way around for me! I only know Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac. Not really interested about what they did after. Unless they wrote another Green Manalishi or Oh Well?
Got to know them thanks to The Melvins and Tom Petty
