Today I decided to listen to two of my favorite rock guitar heros and one great vocalist. Guitarist' Robin Trower, Ronnie Montrose and vocalist Davey Pattison.
I listened to Trower songs: Bridge of sighs, Stitch in time, The fool and me, my personal favorite- Too rolling stoned and others.....
Then I pulled out "Gamma". I listened to: Razor King, Wish I was and Skin and bone and others.....
Davey Pattison hooked has also up with Michael Shenker also. I really enjoyed my day so far. Anybody else heard anything good?
Nirvana In Utero. The cassette kills. Grado headphones sounding good. Canned Heat live at Woodstock on YouTube, didn't make the cut for the movie. Who can explain that?
Hey Nutty - Thought the Tidal commentary pasted below was informative. I did enjoy their radio hits but probably suffer from over exposure to them. Will try to check out some of the less well known "deep tracks" later today. Anybody who "gets" Cuby & The Blizzards deserves the courtesy. There's a bit of a connection in that Eelco Gelling, Golden Earring guitarist during the late '70s, was co-founder along w/Harry Muskee of C. & the B.
"The Continuing Story of Radar Love is a 12-song hits collection from Dutch rock bandGolden Earring, containing both the chug-a-long rock staple "Radar Love" and the full eight-minute version of "Twilight Zone." These two songs are the most renowned on this compilation and both cracked the Top 20, with "Radar Love" hitting number 13 in 1974 and "Twilight Zone" peaking at number ten nine years later. The other ten songs on the album consist of long, heavy guitar-filled runs that surround obscure lyrics, sometimes sounding like modern psychedelia. Some of the songs, like "The Vanilla Queen" and "Mad Love's Comin'" harbor a distinguishable progressive edge, thanks to woven keyboard and guitar interplay. A mild blues and rock feel creep into such tunes as "Candy's Going Bad" and "Lost and Found" but fail to ignite any type of serious musical flare compared to their two singles. Much ofGolden Earring's music consists of average rock riffs that are either sped up or slowed down by accompanying synthesizer, helped along by the mysteriousness ofBarry Hay's voice. Even though this compilation is a dozen songs deep, it still holds as a worthy best-of. ~ Mike DeGagne"
