Too much 80’s, I had to throwback to 1971, with Grand Funk Railroads heart thumping, chord scraping, backbeat, in E Pluribus Funk. The vocals just cut like a jagged bottle swung in a dark alley. Nasty!

1977, Heart, Little Queen. You can just hear the Led Zeppelin influence all over this one. Grungy hard folk rock, with a little of that goddess magic goin’ on.
Probably due to splitting up with girlfriends over the years, I ended up with three of these albums in my collection, ha ha.

My recent listening choices: Callas singing Carmen, and although I have a few versions of this, Maria Callas has the best voice for it in my opinion. Cat Stevens, Tea For The Tillerman, some of his best songs on an unbelievably good recording of them. Stand out sound from 1970 no less!
I’ve got that Cat Steven’s album too. Good tunes.
I had no idea who Heart was until I saw them in concert in 1976. Loved their stuff and bought a few of their albums, especially liked Dog and Butterfly.
Now I have the song Big Country stuck in my head. This made me remember these guys who brought the didgeridoo into a new genre.
That's another one that will transport you right back to the '70s.
Very cool. That's a great incorporation of the didge into that genre.
I have a collection of about 20 didgeridoos. I used to import them from Australia back when the exchange rate was really good in the early 2000s.
It's been a bluegrass filled afternoon. One of the most underrated albums in the genre in my opinion. Fantastic work from all the Rice brothers- Tony, Larry and Wyatt. 
One of the greatest living drummers in my opinion, right there behind Larnell Lewis from Snarky Puppy. Some awesome jazz compositions on this 2019 release
Such a fun band to see live. Only seen em as a group twice, but man it was awesome. I see Larry Keel at least 3 times a year though - one of my favorites. Surprised to see this posted haha
Amazing stuff. All 3 are phenomenal musicians.
John Scofield isn't too shabby of a guitar player either.
1975, recorded in the summer in some Canadian studio called Mushroom, Heart recorded this mellow, folkrock countryesque rock hibrids till she stomps on your chest with Crazy on you… definitely a bipolar psychedelic pop rollercoaster. This one is better listening side 2-1, IMO.
Here's a blues tune from the great Charlie Musselwhite, suitable for my mood today...
Now playing Steely Dan - Everything Must Go
Or was that "Netherworld"?
If you grew up in Amsterdam
Well then, I'm the Duke of Earl
These tabs look iffy, but you say they're good
Let's roll with the homeys and knock on wood
