My iPod just keeps on hummin...

Strawberry Letter 23 - Brothers Johnson

I love the Brothers Johnson...highly underrated....and I used to have this song on 45 single back in the day. Yeah, I'm old. :2wave:

(now playing) Call Me - Blondie

I like this one a lot, too. I listen to it all the time. Blondie's one of those nostalgia bands for me. They remind me of a really great period in my life.


You have a varied taste in music and like listening to it all at once. That's awesome. So do I! It's not unusual for Black Sabbath to follow Loretta Lynn in this house. :mrgreen:

Plus I play numerous musical instruments and many are connected to MID/MP3 interface software... :3oops: I need four huge rack cabinets and a dedicated computer to manage all of it lol...

That's pretty awesome. I have about 1000 or so songs on my computer and somewhere in the range of 300 cds or so....used to have a lot more, but parted with about half of them - left with my ex - when I moved back to Florida. Much to my chagrin....left all the Beatles, Charlie Mingus and Steely Dan there. There's not a week that goes by that I don't feel like kicking myself for that one. I can't sing (even though I do anyway:mrgreen: ), can't play an instrument, but I could not live without music. Can't even imagine it. Would be like a world without sunshine. :2wave:

About the last artist, Imani Coppola.... I love this chick. She puts out some amazing music and her website just popped up with 5 semi-unreleased albums. I bought 'em all as she's just amazing. Quirky, sassy, fun, intelligent, and funky. I can't say enough good stuff about her. Check it out at ImaniCoppola.net.

I must admit, I've only ever heard of Letters To Cleo, Ani DiFranco, and of course Blues Traveler.

Oh my, you need to acquaint yourself with Phil Ochs for sure.

Phil Ochs was a singer/songwriter during the 1960's (variously categorized as ``topical'', ``protest'' and ``folk''). He was a contemporary (and friend) of Bob Dylan. (who said: ``I just can't keep up with Phil. And he's getting better and better and better.'') He was a prolific writer of protest songs such as Draft Dodger Rag, I Ain't Marchin' Anymore and Outside Of A Small Circle Of Friends. His output diminished at the end of the 60's after putting out 7 albums. He wrote little in the 70's and, sadly, took his own life in 1976.

He wrote a lot of songs that are amazingly (or sadly) still relevent today.
Songs like The Cannons of Christianity"

Oh the children will be sent to schools
Minds of clay are molded to their rules
Learn to fear all of eternity
Warn the cannons of Christianity

Outside of a Small Circle of Friends

Smoking marihuana is more fun than drinking beer,
But a friend of ours was captured and they gave him thirty years
Maybe we should raise our voices, ask somebody why
But demonstrations are a drag, besides we're much too high
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
Outside of a small circle of friends

The sad and silent song of a soldier

With a hero's greeting we will welcome him,
With hero's speeches we will honor him,
With a hero's ending we will bury him,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

And comfort his family with a telegram,
We regret to inform you we have lost a man,
But we gave him the highest medal of the land,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

We know what an awful price he had to pay,
But the enemy was contained for another day,
We trained him well, but he would have wanted it that way,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

John Denver, Capenters? That's nothing I've got everything from Jim Reeves and Burl Ives to AC/DC and the Sex Pistols.

Well, hell, I can run the gamut. From Tammy Wynette to NWA to Jim Croce to Rage Against the Machine to Dusty Springfield to King Crimson to Ravi Shankar to Black Uhuru to Judy Garland to Lords of Acid to Louis Armstrong to Paliament Funkadelic. I got's it all.

Sex Pistols? I never figured you for a Sex Pistols kind of guy, that's for sure. Interesting......

 

[cnredd]

I trump...

Abbott & Costello's original "Who's On First" complete radio show...

Howard Stern's show during 911...

And some Dead Milkmen...:2wave:

I've got some really odd stuff on here. Sounds like you have a lot of variety as well. Someone sends or gives me a song and I put in and forget about it. Until I hit search or random. Strange things happen when I do that. I went into the shower the other day and Areosmith was on, when I came out Walter Brennan was playing. My daughter used to load it up with stuff like Backstreet Boy's and N'Sync. I've managed to get rid of most of those, but some do show up now and then.


I've never heard of Ravi Shankar?

He's an Indian sitar player. He was good friends with George Harrison. And is Norah Jones' father. Great music. I can send you a song to sample if you like Indian music.

Sure send it, I'll try anything. If I don't like it I can always put it in the N'sync file.

I have a tendency to play shuffle the entire library, too. It's fun, though, you never know what you're gonna get next! But I really gotta get that Christmas music outta there. :roll:
