Q-Tip is on point, Phife.

Oh my goodness, yes he is! Much more talented than these mumble rappers these days.

A little musical history lesson.

"After Midnight"

J J wrote the song(s) and watching Clapton refuse to take center stage is refreshing. Paying homage to an old master.

Here's another where Clapton plays behind another master at his trade. Winwood is one of those writers/singers/instrumentalists whose songs everyone's heard but never knew who originally performed/wrote the music.

"Can't Find My Way Home."

It's time for an alteration in my musical universe. I'm rebuilding my car stick this weekend. I want upbeat music - nothing maudlin and nothing with a freakin' broken heart.

I am a fan of classic rock, 80s alternative Britpop, some pop (not too bubblegummy), old timey music from the 40s and 50s, jazz, some classic. I'm not a particular fan of harsh sounding music - harder rock, punk etc. For country, it depends.

I don't keep track of the newest and latest so I really don't know all what is out there. I'd love to get some suggestions. I'll take a listen to everything... even if it's not my normal, I'll at least give it a try.

Help?

All things Led Zeppelin is on the top of my list. Classic Rock stuff:
Floyd
Rush
Who
Bowie
Chicago

More modern:
Tedeshi Trucks are very good

For upbeat energy:
James Brown
Herbie Hancock

Jazz:
Joe Pass

Cool little upbeat jazzy romp.

 

[LukSkyFokker]

People In Planes - Pretty Buildings

These guys are amazing and this song has one of the coolest "build-ups".

Nightwish - Human Nature


The whole album is a must listen.

OMG, I love them! We had all of their music back in the 90's and took my now 32 yr old son to see them in concert. Perfect music for road trips, they are great. My son loved The Window.

KEXP pops up on my dash most days. I started out not really listening, then stayed to the end
Social Dance - Grand Depart

The Album Leaf, 'Lost In The Fog'. Mellow, ambience, peaceful, instrumental ... but good drums.

Whether I've said it before or not ....

Noel Pointer (master Jazz violinist), Mirabella, Wayfaring Stranger, Noel's Song, Phantazia, Night Song, Rainstorm, Drive Time, Make It Real ....


All outstanding pieces. Relaxing, mellow, peaceful.
