Music- What are you listening to?

**Pam** · March-08-10, 12:33 PM

My cousin gave me a copy of this and it's actually good. I never was a fan of his comedy. Maybe he should have just done music all along.

Since I heard a review on NPR of the band Galactic from New Orleans Ive been into them.

I came across this album cover that I just love.

Been listening to a lot of Peter Green/Danny Kirwan-era Fleetwood Mac lately - Then Play On, Live at the Boston Tea Party, Kiln House, Mr Wonderful, BBC Sessions. Great stuff - they became a COMPLETELY different band after Buckingham/Nicks joined, even the last couple of albums before that were quite a bit different from the earlier stuff. Most people don't even know there WAS a Fleetwood Mac before Buckingham/Nicks! Or aren't familiar with the music anyway.

Thunder On The Mountain, the first cut from Bob Dylan's Modern Times CD of a coupla years ago.
I love Dylan, although I should stress that I'm not a Dylan fanatic. There is a difference.
I bought the CD when it came out. I liked that cut, immediately, but it was only when I pulled out the CD, recently, to re-acquaint myself with it, that I fell totally in love with that song.
If anyone wants to check it out, I have two suggestions;
1) Print out a copy of the lyrics. Trying to follow them, as Bob "sings" them, is nearly impossible, and they are worth the trouble.
2) If you use YouTube, don't select a "live" performance of the song. The cut from the CD features a more focussed vocal by Bob, and the over-all musical performance is just outstanding.

Dylan is a lot of fun, these days, as he seems to have elected to forget about being Bob Dylan and has become that which he may have always wanted to be: just a guy who sings songs, a son of Woody Guthrie and other American folk artists who played relatively simple songs by the people & for the people.

Thunder on the Mountain features a cute "shout-out" to Alicia Keys, who, it seems, Bob must have some admiration for.

I recently became a spacebook fan of CKLW and they keep linking old Swingin' Time clips that are just catching me off-guard. I was 10 or 11 yrs old when the song in the link below was out. Though I could not ID the song by its title, so help me God, after hearing two notes, I was able to sing along with it almost word-for-word... even though I am sure I have not heard this specific song since the 60s. I could sit and just cry. They just don't make music like this anymore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHEXB8fkix0

I met Robin Seymour a few years back at a Detroit Memories re-union where he was a guest of honor . He looks the same but older of course . He also brought his 2 grown grandaughters , and Robin lives in California and runs some kind of production company there .

Exploration #6 - London Pirate Radio

Pirate radio is everywhere in London, born in the 60’s from rusting anti-aircraft towers in the mouth of the Thames. Today’s broadcasts are hidden in plain sight, transmitting from secret tower block studios via homemade rooftop antennas. We put our boots on and went exploring.

It's an interesting behind-the-scenes documentary about clandestine radio operators. There's a bit of urban exploration involved. At one point they blindfold the commentator while driving him to their secret studio. I wonder if he thought to bring along a GPS?
