mostly i listen edm songs and some time i listen pop songs it all depends on my mood, music is best remedy to relax yourself and stay calm.

Any calmer and I would be in a coma.

I have been listening to the Pogo Joe Theme.

I was in grad school when they put this together. The guy who did the music was in med school. I remember him cranking it out on a little electric piano he had in his apartment. I tried to get him to explain how he wrote it. He, like so many other musicians, couldn't get me to understand.

 

Smooth Jazz and R&B baby

Very pretty.

The lady screen left is Emmylou Harris. I saw her once many years ago and it was completely serendipitous. I was listening to a blues band and went upstairs for a bit where they had a country band - Good Company, I think (@shortbus, this was at the Water St Saloon, which you may remember). The country band was a good solid "house band" with a good following. On this night, there was a guest with them and it was EmmyLou Harris - she was just sitting in on some numbers. You could instantly tell that her voice was something special. With all the TV and Media and recording industry hype and Autotune etc... I sometimes forget that there is a very good reason why some of them are successful and have longevity...it is because they are very talented.

So, for S&G, I went to go search if there were any tapes of Good Company and what do I find, but an article about that very EmmyLou Harris appearance in 1975 - wild https://patch.com/ohio/kent/country...her-1975-north-water-street-surprise_6f88bf32. Apparently I am not the only one who noticed. [BTW: I don't know about all that other stuff in the article, I remember only that she played with Good Company...but then, again, it was 1975).

Sirens indeed!

 

Hello,

Do you remember the group Flairck?

Wiki describes their music as "a blend of folk music, jazz and classical chamber music, with touches of blues". Unusual.

Never heard them before, but didn't find much I would call jazz in there.
Max.

 

I was very fortunate to be around so much great music during the formative years. Not just the works of all the classical musicians, but also great NEW music, pretty much as it was happening..Motown, British Invasion, Psychedelic Rock and the first reincarnation of blues...and Electrified Jazz.

This was one set from a series over a couple of days played at a nightclub. The talent here is pretty darn impressive in my view.


Michael Henderson - He is 19 years old here and playing with these greats and he carries the bottom throughout - very impressive.
John McLaughlin - plays as well as ever here and much more creative, I think, than the Mahavishnu era. Check out thye solo at 34:15.
Gary Bartz - nobody sounds like him. He goes into these long rolling melodies that end up blowing up before calming down for the hand off to the next musician, hear @ 47:26.
Keith Jarrett - consummate classical and Jazz pianist and one of my long time favorites. Check out the solo at 19:03 - beautiful.
Jack DeJohnette - extraordinary drummer by all standards but he sometimes has this great style where he seems to be playing in all the holes - hear 45:11, for example.

...and then there is Miles Davis.


Really good stuff.

 

These two women have incredibly high voices.

This one, not so much, but all three have something in common...anyone care to guess?

BTW: I like all three of them.

Spoiler

All three were featured in Budweiser Beer commercials singing those songs.

 

 

 

 

 

I mostly listen to pop and edm music from a decade now, by the passage of time the taste and sense of music has developed among people.

 

"When I Need You"


When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so wanna give you
It's only a heartbeat away

When I need love
I hold out my hands and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day
Miles and miles of empty space in between us
The telephone can't take the place of your smile
But you know I won't be travelin' forever
It's cold out, but hold out, and do I like I do

I believe this was "Leo Sayer"

your probably too young to remember but a lot of songs nowadays are remakes and you just don't know the original author.
posted these before but in another thread..... AND I'm sure my music is way different from you all's, so are my movies
Avenged Sevenfold: It's not easy

Looking back and being young and foolish I got into drugs "Just saying" I learnt my lesson and have since changed but this reminds me every time I hear it what I went through and what it took to get out of it. I've tried to better my life everyday and reach for something else and help others.

After losing all the people you think are your friends cause you no longer will do what they consider "NORMAL" and are forced to change the world you once lived in and are shunned by the same people you once called family.
Now my motto is.....

I have grown to really like Avicii. His suicide was a sad event as he was a talented composer. His songs took in a new much sadder meaning... Watching the documentary about him and his work made me reconsider that music style.

 

My kids gave me the Amazon Echo a couple of Christmas ago and about the only thing I use it for is music. Wife subscribes to Amazon Prime so I ask Alexa for all kinds of things. Today was BB King. For something smooth classical or Spanish guitar. Symphonies. An enormous amount of Jerry Garcia with and without the Grateful Dead. Just about anything you can imagine Amazon Prime has to listen to for basically free once you subscribe to Prime.

 

Tool has a new album out! Their music has some kind of almost mathematical precision that really draws me in.
