623 ( Megadeth - À Tout le Monde )

-
Youthanasia cover

Oi! I am picking late on Sunday again... Anyway, I was listening to this song today while out and about and I knew that this was my pick. I love the power that is behind this song; Dave Mustaine is such an excellent songwriter and he shows it here in spades.

Here is the music video on YouTube.
Here is another music video on YouTube featuring Cristina Scabbia.
Here is a live performance of the song on YouTube.

6802. Rare Earth - Tobacco Road

-
Image
From: Get Ready ; Year: 1969; Genre: Blues Rock Kind of felt like going for one of Rare Earth's extended tracks, of which I have already picked a lot. This is, of course, the modern classic standard originally written by John D. Loudermilk and has been covered and recorded many times. I'll always love this heavy blues version that I heard a lot over the years; all the instruments are incredible, but especially that organwork; and those guitars are spectacular.   Hear Tobacco Road on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: Devo - Jocko Homo     My song pick 2 years ago today: Three Dog Night - Pieces of April   My song pick 3 years ago today: Alice in Chains - Hate to Feel   My song pick 4 years ago today: Midnight Oil - Sell My Soul   My song pick 5 years ago today: Ohio Players - Love Rollercoaster   My song pick 6 years ago today: Fairport Convention - Expletive Delighted   My song pick 7 years ago today: The Holli...

6805. Dr. John - Pots on Fiyo (Filé Gumbo) / Who I Got to Fall On (If the Pot Get Heavy)

-
Image
From: The Sun, Moon & Herbs ; Year: 1971; Genre: Jazz Fusion It always puts me in a good mood when I play one of Dr. John's albums. This one mixes Dr. John's signature New Orleans sound with some jazz and rock. I have to agree with the artist: it is best to listen to this one at night with the lights off; just adds to the mystique.   Hear Pots on Fiyo (Filé Gumbo) / Who I Got to Fall On (If the Pot Get Heavy) on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: Rahsaan Roland Kirk - Slow Groove     My song pick 2 years ago today: Sly Stone - His Eye Is on the Sparrow   My song pick 3 years ago today: Roy Eldridge and Benny Carter - Close Your Eyes   My song pick 4 years ago today: Jigsaw - One Way Street   My song pick 5 years ago today: Red Hot Chili Peppers - Goodbye Angels   My song pick 6 years ago today: Triumph - Somebody's Out There   My song pick 7 years ago today: Primus - DMV My song pick 8 years ago today: Al ...

6801. America - In the Sea

-
Image
From: Das Letzte Einhorn "The Last Unicorn" Original Soundtrack ; Year: 1982; Genre: Soft Rock/Soundtrack Was talking about America's songs from this classic movie soundtrack and just a little later it came on while driving; quite a coincidence, right? Just seemed like a sign that it should be chosen today. Anyway, this was one of three tracks recorded by the band America for The Last Unicorn , but from wot I understand they also had a hand in the orchestral pieces as well. Gerry Beckley performs the lead vocals on this one and the title-track and, even though all pieces of music were written/arranged/produced by Jimmy Webb, this track and their others on the soundtrack sit perfectly with any compilation of songs from the band, which are actually included on some of their Greatest Hits albums.   Hear In the Sea on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - City's Still Growing     My song pick 2 years ago today: ...

6806. The J. Geils Band - Centerfold

-
Image
From: Freeze Frame ; Year: 1981; Genre: Rock/New Wave For the last couple of weeks I've had some of J. Geils Band's music on the brain; this track is one in particular. Inside this rather catchy and fun song is an interesting tale that on the surface seems a bit racy, but it is really about the ruining of static memories from your past. In this case the man is regaling the listener about a dream girl from high school he had a serious crush on; in his mind she was still the innocent schoolgirl. However, after seeing her in the centerfold of an adult magazine, she is no longer that innocent girl from his memories, but has continued her life and is now a woman. Much of the song is about him coming to terms with it and accepting this new reality about someone special from his past.   Hear Centerfold on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: Michael Jackson - Ben   My song pick 2 years ago today: John Williams - The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme) ...

6804. The Winery Dogs - Regret

-
Image
From: The Winery Dogs ; Year: 2012; Genre: Blues Rock I really hope these great musicians make some new material; I am aware that each of them have many projects and/or primary bands they are in, but I absolutely love them in this trio. Anyway, this is the final track on their debut album, which is a gorgeous bluesy ballad that shows that they can play mellower and still be the virtuosos that they are.   Hear Regret on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: George Clinton - Pleasures Of Exhaustion (Do It Till I Drop)     My song pick 2 years ago today: Richie Kotzen - Dream of a New Day   My song pick 3 years ago today: Gordon Lightfoot - Rainy Day People   My song pick 4 years ago today: The Thermals - I Might Need You To Kill   My song pick 5 years ago today: IQ - Passing Strangers   My song pick 6 years ago today: Melissa Manchester - Don't Cry Out Loud   My song pick 7 years ago today: Lighthouse - Magic's in th...

6803. Dennis the Fox - Piledriver

-
Image
From: Mother Trucker ; Year: 1972; Genre: Country Funk/Rock Here's another country funk track to end the workweek and to also start a new month. Dennis Caldirola, aka. Dennis the Fox , is probably not a well-known artist, but has been active in the business for quite a while. As far as I am aware, Mother Trucker is his only studio album, but is well worth a good listen.   Hear Piledriver on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: Thomas Dolby - She Blinded Me With Science     My song pick 2 years ago today: The Strawberry Alarm Clock - Incense and Peppermints   My song pick 3 years ago today: Bee Gees - First of May   My song pick 4 years ago today: Artie Shaw and His Orchestra - Nightmare   My song pick 5 years ago today: The Easybeats - Heaven and Hell   My song pick 6 years ago today: The Who - Ball and Chain   My song pick 7 years ago today: The Rolling Stones - Saint of Me My song pick 8 years ago today: Ste...
