Townes Van Zandt and The Band are some great ones, definitely some of my most played. Currently listening to a new band I recently discovered called Highly Suspect. A little different from the classic rock and outlaw country I usually listen to but I've been hooked recently. Enjoying this one along with some C&D Bayou Morning and a glass of whiskey.
Highly Suspect - My Name is Human

Ending the evening...with the 2 closing tracks from Kansas' POKR:
The haunting Nobody's Home and the majestic Hopelessly Human

Listening to the album 11:11 by Rodrigo y Gabriela. Here's their performance of "Hanuman" in an incredible video.

Crank it up to 11.

Just finished a load of Vintage Syrian in the Stanwell 185. Now, some housework to the soothing sounds of Metallica's "And Justice For All".

Currently listening to Reverend Horton Heat ~ Smoke Em' If You Got 'Em and I am indeed doing just that, with Exotique in a Rad Davis squashed tomato.

 

[philobeddoe]

Switching gears and listening to the Beastie Boys ~ The In Sound From Way Out, this is a compilation of their instrumental tracks, very chill and easy. I'm smoking my second bowl of Stonehenge in a smooth Marxman deLuxe Canadian.

John Cale: Slow Dazzle.
Hyde Park in a Danish Skater.

 

[philobeddoe]

Currently listening to Miles Davis ~ Bitches Brew and smoking Blackhouse in a Bill Shalosky sandblasted Dublin.

 

[jefff]

Friday Night in San Francisco. Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin and Paco de Lucia.

Listening to The Sugarcubes ~ Stick Around For Joy and smoking the first pipe of the day, L.J. Peretti's Royal in a Custombilt pot.

Mayfair, I love SNZ! Thanks for reminding me; I have to get out my CDs. And, they have clever YouTube clips.

Agreed........ I sort of glossed over them back in the day, revisiting now, what a GREAT BAND!!!

Thanks!!................. ::
Off topic- Dino, I just ordered a set of those Sennheiser HD650's............ I haven't had a decent pair of headphones for ages. I had a Irish Terrier puppy that destroyed my previous set!... (Pioneer Monitor 10's)..........

 

[beefeater33]

The wonderful album----The Kinks, "Face to Face"......... I really love this track- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOSe53DzLP4

Beef, you're gonna love them. If you can find this CD, in my opinion one of the finest recordings ever made, in terms of sonic reproduction (the performance is amazing, too), clap on your new headphones and prepare to be blown away.

Ravel's "Alborada del Gradioso" with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jean Martinon, on a "High Performance" RCA CD. (I think Amazon might have a copy)
