Whats playing on your system today?

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?

ghosthouse, 

I did dig into Ian a bit. Listened to Meat and potatoes. I liked it, and I saw some YouTube links. He's quite a comedic entertainer and stage presence as well as a talented musician. 

Gov't mule has some great music. Basically a side project the Alman abrothers band. They have a large discography. "Shout" is a great starting place. As I mentioned above it has a bunch of great talent on it.

arcamm88 has mentioned City Boy in another post. Have you had the pleasure of hearing their stuff? Dinner at the Ritz is fantastic.

I've been checking that "Obscure Bands" thread Nutty but haven't yet tried to find or listen to City Boy yet.  There is just so MUCH to listen to...it's incredible.  Thank goodness for Spotify and YouTube.  If I can't find it on the Spot, I check YouTube.  

By the way, impressed with the breadth of your listening.  Apart from Gary Moore, don't know The Flower Kings or Haken.  

Later.

ghosthouse, 

Thanks for the kind words. I try to keep an open mind about music of all kinds. I'll listen to any recommendation regardless of style.

Just finished Golden Earing, "Moontan". Candy's going bad" and "Are you receiving me" are killer.  We'll , "Radar Love" is ok too.

Hello Nutty - Found City Boy on Spotify. Listening to Dinner at the Ritz right now. They remind me of Queen quite a bit (vocal harmonies and something about one of the guitars).

Your Radar Love comment reminded me of a related Netherlands band, that being Cuby & The Blizzards (also found as Cuby + Blizzards). They go back quite a ways...check out some of their old albums on YouTube.

That dynamite blues guitar is Eelco Gelling, later in Golden Earring.

Later.

N- man, check this out. Dunno if you will like. Almost 50 years old but it still works (at least for me). Back in the day before MTV and fashion poisoned things.

Another good one from Cuby and the boys (Go Down Sunshine)
