Default 16 Horsepower Live March 2001

So in 2010 I took my son to see Tool in Oklahoma City. This band called Wovenhand was the opening act. So we walk in and hear this incredibly unique, dark almost gothic, slightly native americanish music blaring from this Tom Petty looking dude on a stool contorting as he's playing the song "Dirty Blue". I was mesmerized and immediately hooked. David Eugene Edwards is Wovenhand and that music is great and all, but his previous band 16 Horsepower has one of my all time favorite catalogs. I am back to listening to their live album on repeat lately. His lyrics are overtly Christian and I am about as far from religion as I have ever been, but it absolutely does not matter. I love this album

^ Great band! I saw them open for Steve Earle (I think) years ago.

I've been listening to a lot of Spirit of the West today after hearing about John Mann's passing. Such a great and underrated band.

Do you remember Rockline?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockline

Quote:
Rockline was a nationally syndicated radio interview program hosted by Bob Coburn that was broadcast live via satellite every Monday and Wednesday night from 8:30pm-10pm PT to radio stations in the United States. Founded in 1981, it was considered to be the longest running, uninterrupted program in rock history. The main guests interviewed on the program were various musical artists of the rock genre, including both active rock artists (on Mondays) and classic rock artists (on Wednesdays). The primary feature of the program was the ability for listeners to call live and ask questions to the guests. Several of the shows were also live performances.

In late 2016, KLOS and the whole rock and roll world lost a legend, friend, brother and father. KLOS is honored to be able to keep the legacy of the late, great Bob Coburn alive. Each weekday, re-live memories from the Rockline archives with The Godfather of Rock & Roll. As BC used to say, with over 3,000 shows in the vault, the Rockline archives chronicled the full history of rock and roll, as told by the artist themselves.

Each weekday, hear a Rockline Replay at 11:30am, 3:30pm and 7:30pm
Every Monday night at 9pm, KLOS presents a special one hour Rockline Encore. One hour that features two iconic artists and amazing stories you can’t hear anywhere else in the world.
You can find episodes on YouTube.

Haven't heard this in a long time, but it stopped me in my tracks. The emotion is palpable, and the lyrics are great. I might have to go and re-watch this film again.

Ichika Nito is a japanese guitarist with a style so unique it makes me feel like I've been playing guitar wrong my whole life. His songs are usually 0:30 - 1:30 long and he usually puts out 2-4 songs per week. It's crazy that a musician can make a legitimate career out of recording videos in their home (without being a young woman in a tank top).



Some times people remix him and he'll repost it:


Or his audience will challenge him to write a song in a stupid tuning and he'll create magic

There were some terrible Jump Blues and jazz bands that giged around in the wake of Joe Jackson and a few others opening up the genre to the hipsters in London in late '79 (Sade couldn't sing a note in tune to save her soul, she was karaoke bad live then) but Working Week were just jaw droopingly good to my 19 year old ears

You can tell on her albums that she's not the greatest singer. I don't think she has a lot of range.
Supposedly she is the most successful British solo female artist ever, mostly because of her popularity with African-Americans. Though it looks like Adele has passed her in "units sold".

I saw her second ever gig in the Wag Club back in 79 or so, her real talent was she was shagging the editor of the New Musical Express so some A&R man thought a sultery looking lass singing jazz would be a no brainer, god she was bad, clear the room off tune bad, they hid her away for months after with a singing coach but she still basically whispers her songs as anytime she increases the volume it all goes pear shaped

I haven't heard this song in years, and I laughed so hard I gave myself an asthma attack.
