What are you listening to right now?

Ian Dury and the Blockheads 'Hit Me (with your rhythm stick) '
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHQItmEunOM

One of the best bass riffs around, on a par with Entwistle.
BTW, this is the group that made the rock and roll anthem 'Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll' a big hit.

i keep playing the ending of november rain..

i.. cannot.. STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am hip hop - deep puddle dynamics

the first hip hop song i ever heard, underground anyway..

deep puddle dynamics- self titled theme song

Love Jedi Mind. Vinnie Paz is ridiculous:

I get a bloodlust when I see a slug bust
Hit your mug with a .38 snub and watch the blood rush
Nothings above us, ya’ll better back off
Cos you a devil like the Canaanite in Sackcloth
We busting Gats off
It’s a clean kill
It doesn’t seem real when your spleen spill
So listen to what im spittin at y’all
La illaha, il Allah il Allah

Loose Fit Mix - 1989-1990

Hard to believe this stuff is now 17-18 years old, most of it still sounds as fresh now as it did back then. Of course The Stone Roses, Happy Mondays and Charlatans need no introduction. I have included some bands that seemed to adopt a similiar sound to the music coming out of NW England at that time - i.e. Soup Dragons, Primal Scream, Trash Can Sinatra's even World Party and the genuis that was The Hollow Men. Also included are the lesser known gems such as the brilliant Spinnning Jenny's, My Jealous God and the brilliant wah-wah of 35 Summers. The mix while not strictly "baggy" is a good snap shot of what some of the best bands in Britain were doing around this era. Hope you enjoy!

nice mix of jangly pop excess

Cool DJ.

Is that the same Northside that did 'Take 5' - I bought that single, probably the only copy that ever sold in Australia. Good to see Inspiral Carpets get a mention, I've got a lot of their stuff - and World Party and James are also objects of my affection.

I'm currently suffering through AC/DC's 'Who Made Who'. Windows Media Player is a harsh mistress.

I heard this song on the radio the other day - hadn't thought of it or this album in years. Great vide0- great vocals
Santana - well alright

then that one made me think of this one which I was listening to alot at about the same time by Dave Mason - but I couldn't find it by him, I found it by these guys though and they do pretty amazing close harmonies - all the way through to the second to last note (yikes) but it makes you realize how many talented normal people there are out there:

and then I found this - kind of a mess- but look at the people on that stage- and I do love Dave Mason's voice:

but no one does that song better by the man himself and one of my all time favorite live performers (along with bb king)
Joe Cocker - Feeling Alright

Hi Aidan I'm in tune with you, your choice of music is exc ellent, really enjoying it.

Thanks Dutchy - it seems to me we like the same sort of energy in music - as well as the spanish influence.

Yes it would appear so. See what you think of my other favourite guitar man Ottmar Liebert playing Barcelona Nights.
