William's Song a Day Blog - est. September 2007

From: Exile ; Year: 1973; Genre: Rock The other day I heard a song from Exile; I've only picked one other track from the band, so I figured it was a good time to do so. This track has somewhat of a dated sound, which is that of early '70s rock/power pop, but is still quite good and has aged pretty well. Hear Please Be There on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Hank Williams - Hey Good Lookin' My song pick two years ago today: Queensrÿche - Speak My song pick three years ago today: The Beach Boys - God Only Knows My song pick four years ago today: Hawkwind - Living on a Knife Edge My song pick five years ago today: Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) - Graveyard Train My song pick six years ago today: Sethian - Blood Calling My song pick seven years ago today: Azteca - You Can't Take The Funk Out Of Me My song pick eight years ago today: Bryan Adams - Run To You

From: No Guts... No Glory ; Year: 1983; Genre: Southern Rock Felt like some southern-fried hard rock after hearing a song from this band yesterday. This is hard rock instrumental closes out this great album perfectly; a guitarist/musicians dream personified. Hear Both Sides on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Egg - I Will Be Absorbed My song pick two years ago today: Megadeth - Into the Lungs of Hell My song pick three years ago today: Soundgarden - Bones of Birds My song pick four years ago today: Nightwish - Know Why the Nightingale Sings My song pick five years ago today: Stuart Hamm - Black Ice My song pick six years ago today: Waylander - Brú Na Bóinne My song pick seven years ago today: Rammstein - Klavier My song pick eight years ago today: Johnny Rivers - Summer Rain

From: Hunting High and Low ; Year: 1985; Genre: Synthpop/New Wave When in Seattle over the weekend I heard a bunch of a -h a 's music playing at an arcade; their music has been on my mind ever since. Anyway, this is one of their more pop-oriented tracks on the album and one that I like to hear when in such a mood. Hear Love is Reason on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Bob Seger - Turn the Page My song pick two years ago today: Rage Against the Machine - The Ghost of Tom Joad My song pick three years ago today: Dire Straits - Walk of Life My song pick four years ago today: The Foggy Mountain Boys (Flatt & Scruggs) - Cripple Creek My song pick five years ago today: Queensrÿche - Fear City Slide My song pick six years ago today: Dream Theater - Light Fuse and Get Away My song pick seven years ago today: The Doors - Ghost Song My song pick eight years ago today: Badfinger - Day After Day

From: The Loreli ; Year: 1989; Genre: Progressive Rock Back home and resting up; needing to choose one in my tired state, I'm picking one from my old queue today. This is one that I've been meaning to pick for some time now, the title track to 1980s progressive rock band Quasar's 1989 studio album; a pretty track. Watch a live performance of The Loreli on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Def Leppard - Rock On My song pick two years ago today: The Cosmic Sound Orchestra - Fly Some Funk Up to the Moon My song pick three years ago today: Laura Branigan - Self Control My song pick four years ago today: Yes - Starship Trooper My song pick five years ago today: Buffalo Springfield - Mr. Soul My song pick six years ago today: Chuck Berry - Johnny B.

From: X ; Year: 1990; Genre: Alternative Rock Still out of town, but still getting today's pick in. I remember hearing this track a lot in the 1990s; it seemed to get a lot of air play. Both the highly danceable smooth rhythm and the harmonica solos are probably what helps to make it as memorable as it is. Hear Suicide Blonde on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Pleasure - Bouncy Lady My song pick two years ago today: Pearl Jam - Once My song pick three years ago today: Rush - Lock and Key My song pick four years ago today: Porcupine Tree - Time Flies My song pick five years ago today: David Bowie - Life on Mars?

From: Discipline ; Year: 1981; Genre: Progressive Rock I've been thinking about picking something from King Crimson for about a week now and am finally getting around to doing so whilst on my trip out of town. Anyway, Matte Kudasai , (Japanese for "Please Wait"), is a mellower track with a great amount of musicality in every respect; a great song. Hear Matte Kudasai on YouTube.

From: The Midnight Mover ; Year: 1968; Genre: Soul/Funk Out of town in Seattle for this Funky Friday. I've been itching to pick another one from the late-great Wilson Pickett.

From: Recall the Beginning... A Journey From Eden ; Year: 1972; Genre: Rock/Psychedelic Rock This rather deep and haunting song that closes out this album was on my mind this morning; I especially adore the production quality throughout. The mix of both acoustic and electronic elements as well as the wall of sound echoing vocals combined with the heavy lyrics make for an excellent track. Hear Journey From Eden on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Kansas - Dust in the Wind My song pick two years ago today: King Crimson - Red My song pick three years ago today: Sky - March to the Scaffold My song pick four years ago today: Rhapsody of Fire - Holy Thunderforce My song pick five years ago today: Guided by Voices - Everybody Thinks I’m a Raincloud (When I'm Not Looking) My song pick six years ago today: Gorō Yamaguchi - Tsuru No Sugomori (Crane's Nest) My song pick seven years ago today: M83 - Don't Save Us From The Flames My song pick eight y...

From: The Fabulous Miracles ; Year: 1963; Genre: Motown/Soul/R&B This is one of those tracks that will always put me in a good mood and a smile on my face. Smokey Robinson and company along with the Funk Brothers really kill it here; an amazing song. Hear You Really Got a Hold on Me on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Fleetwood Mac - Think About Me My song pick two years ago today: Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Jerusalem My song pick three years ago today: Marillion - Kayleigh My song pick four years ago today: Johann Sebastian Bach - BWV 1062 - Concerto in C-Minor For Two Harpsichords My song pick five years ago today: Rammstein - Feuerräder My song pick six year ago today: Igor Stravinsky - Rite of Spring - Sacrificial Dance My song pick seven years ago today: KISS - Detroit Rock City My song pick eight years ago today: Johann Sebastian Bach - BWV 645 - Wachet auf ruft uns die Stimme

From: The Presidents of the United States of America ; Year: 1995; Genre: Alternative Rock I hadn't heard this song for at least 16 years or so, but yesterday evening I happened to see the music video, and I knew I had to pick it. It's a cute, light-hearted song; certainly brings back memories. Hear Peaches on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Rolling Stones - Midnight Rambler My song pick two years ago today: The Five Stairsteps - O-o-o Child My song pick three years ago today: The Delgados - Mr. Blue Sky My song pick four years ago today: Muse - Citizen Erased My song pick five years ago today: The Darkness - Is It Just Me My song pick six years ago today: Blind Willie Johnson - Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground My song pick seven years ago today: Devo - Come Back Jonee My song pick eight years ago today: Weather Report - A Remark You Made

From: Telephantasm ; Year: 2010, (1987); Genre: Alternative Metal I thought, since they've been on my mind a lot lately, I would pick another Soundgarden track today. This is one that was a bonus track on their compilation album of this song's namesake. All the way back in 1987 they began recording this track, but it never was finished until later; it's great to hear something this old and new from the band at the same time. Hear The Telephantasm on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Mr. Big - Mr. Never in a Million Years My song pick two years ago today: Dayton Sidewinders - Funky in Here My song pick three years ago today: Heart - Fanatic My song pick four years ago today: Led Zeppelin - Whole Lotta Love My song pick five years ago today: Queensrÿche - Roads to Madness My song pick six years ago today: Jethro Tull - Roll Yer Own My song pick seven years ago today: Naturally 7 - Wall of Sound My song pick eight years ago today: Nightwish -...

From: Woman In The Wings ; Year: 1978; Genre: Progressive Rock/Folk Rock I had this great album on my mind this morning and wanted to make a song from it as my pick. Rollercoaster is mostly driven by the bass with both simple and intricate lines. The signature heavy British progressive folk rock found on the Chrysalis label is every apparent throughout the piece; and of course Maddy Prior's vocals are as great as ever. Hear Rollercoaster with the song I Told You So on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Bootsy's Rubber Band - Stretchin' Out (In a Rubber Band) My song pick two years ago today: Led Zeppelin - When the Levee Breaks My song pick three years ago today: Hawkwind - Wind of Change My song pick four years ago today: Alestorm - Set Sail to Conquer My song pick five years ago today: Pee Wee King and his Golden West Cowboys - The Ghost and Honest Joe My song pick six years ago today: Jerry Reed - Amos Moses My song pick seven years ago t...

From: Information ; Year: 1983; Genre: Rock Last night I heard this one on the television; it was one that I was planning on picking a while ago, but for many reasons it did not happen. Anyway, Slipping Away is one that brings back memories of that early 1980s rock sound; I love it a lot. Hear Slipping Away on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Mountain - Mississippi Queen My song pick two years ago today: Rod Stewart - You Wear it Well My song pick three years ago today: Steeleye Span - The Twelve Witches My song pick four years ago today: Georg Philipp Telemann - TWV 55:C3 - Wassermusik - Hamburger Ebbe und Flut My song pick five years ago today: Steve Winwood - The Finer Things My song pick six years ago today: Tarja Turunen - I Walk Alone My song pick seven years ago today: Link Wray - Rumble My song pick eight years ago today: The Carter Family - Wildwood Flower

From: Mahavishnu ; Year: 1984; Genre: Jazz Fusion Wasn't sure about the song I was going to pick on this Funky Friday , however, after I happened to have one of their songs come on this morning I knew I had a pick. The funky rhythm section is definitely what drives this song and makes a great platform for the synth and other lead instruments to do their job. Hear Radio-Activity on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Toto - Stranger in Town My song pick two years ago today: Dream Theater - Hell's Kitchen My song pick three years ago today: Styx - Come Sail Away My song pick four years ago today: Alestorm - You Are a Pirate My song pick five years ago today: Bill Evans Trio - Waltz for Debbie My song pick six years ago today: The Box Tops - The Letter My song pick seven years ago today: Azteca - Mazatlan My song pick eight years ago today: Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) - Have You Ever Seen the Rain?

From: The Morrigan's Call ; Year: 2006; Genre: Celtic Folk Rock I thought I should pick something that might be loosely considered apropos for this St. Patrick's Day. Cruachan came to mind for some reason and I think it fits well. Hear The Morrigan's Call on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Flogging Molly - (No More) Paddy's Lament My song pick two years ago today: Black 47 - The Big Fella My song pick three years ago today: Frank Mackey & the Keltic Cowboys - Kiss My Irish Ass My song pick four years ago today: Dropkick Murphys - Black Velvet Band My song pick five years ago today: Black 47 - Green Suede Shoes My song pick six years ago today: Savatage - St. Patricks My song pick seven years ago today: Mose Allison - Your Mind is on Vacation My song pick eight years ago today: Thin Lizzy - Whiskey in the Jar

From: Gimme Back My Bullets ; Year: 1976; Genre: Southern Rock Not really in the mood to listen to music today, but I still want to get my pick in. Gimme Back My Bullets is one of their heavier songs, and one that I like from the album. Hear Gimme Back My Bullets on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Castaways - Liar, Liar My song pick two years ago today: AC/DC - Back in Black My song pick three years ago today: Porcupine Tree - Mother & Child Divided My song pick four years ago today: The Jimmy Castor Bunch - Space Age My song pick five years ago today: Bass Extremes - Mocha Soca My song pick six years ago today: Rush - Fly By Night My song pick seven years ago today: Jon Hendricks - I'll Bet You Thought I'd Never Find You My song pick eight years ago today: Tom Petty - Free Fallin'

From: Drones ; Year: 2015; Genre: Alternative Rock/Progressive Rock I was thinking about this band today; I realized that I had not chosen something from their newest record, Drones , which is another concept album. I like how this one is done and really picks up the pace and makes it much more upbeat musically. Hear Revolt on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Vixen - Edge of a Broken Heart My song pick two years ago today: Rush - Mystic Rhythms My song pick three years ago today: The Moody Blues - Dr. Livingstone, I Presume My song pick four years ago today: Django Reinhardt & Stéphane Grappelli (Quintette du Hot Club de France) - Chasing Shadows My song pick five years ago today: The Dave Brubeck Quartet - Take Five My song pick six years ago today: Rammstein - Ich Tu Dir Weh My song pick seven years ago today: Damn Yankees - Coming of Age My song pick eight years ago today: Bread - Mother Freedom

From: Works, Volume 2 ; Year: 1977 (1973); Genre: Progressive Rock/Jazz Fusion/Funk Since hearing about Keith Emerson's passing I've been revisiting a lot of his work; especially with EL&P. This is one of the tracks from their recording sessions for their hugely successful Brain Salad Surgery album, but didn't make the cut. Instead, was released as a B-Side single and was later included on Works, Volume 2. It's one of their tracks that mixes quite a few musical styles, chiefly Prog Rock, Funk, and Jazz with others there as well. Hear When the Apple Blossoms Bloom in the Windmills of Your Mind, I'll Be Your Valentine on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Yello - Oh Yeah My song pick two years ago today: Wilson Pickett - Take That Pollution Out Your Throat My song pick three years ago today: Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody My song pick four years ago today: The Doobie Brothers - Listen to the Music My song pick five years ago today: Queen - B...

From: Emerson, Lake & Palmer ; Year: 1970; Genre: Progressive Rock/classical Last night I learned that Keith Emerson took his own life a couple days ago after struggling with physical ailments. It's sad on so many levels to lose such a monumental keyboardist/musician/writer/arranger of his talent; he will surely be missed without a doubt; may he rest in peace. Anyway, whilst thinking about a good track to choose I came across this suite from Emerson, Lake & Palmer's first album based on the Three Fates of Greek Myth: Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos. It's mostly Keith Emerson's keyboard work on both a grand pipe organ and piano all over the place stylistically all the way from classical to jazz, hard rock, and everything in between; almost 8 minutes of getting to hear a master musician play on his chosen instrument. Hear The Three Fates on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Dayton Sidewinders - Slippin' Into Darkness My song pick two years...

From: Us ; Year: 1992; Genre: Rock After hearing song from his Us album the other day, I wanted to pick another from the album. I love the funky groove and the vocal work in particular; an excellent track. Hear Digging in the Dirt on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Slaughter - Up All Night My song pick two years ago today: The Steve Miller Band - Wide River My song pick three years ago today: Stratovarius - Fire Dance My song pick four years ago today: Jethro Tull - Aeroplane My song pick five years ago today: Styx - Renegade My song pick six years ago today: The Jaggerz - The Rapper My song pick seven years ago today: Sha Na Na - Blue Moon My song pick eight years ago today: The Moody Blues - Your Wildest Dreams

From: Small Talk ; Year: 1974; Genre: Soul/Funk This is a busy Funky Friday, but I didn't have to think hard for my pick; I was really wanting to choose one from Sly and the Family Stone. It's more of a soul piece, although there's a lot of funk throughout the song. Hear Can't Strain My Brain on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Paris - 1 in 10 My song pick two years ago today: Jethro Tull - Look Into the Sun My song pick three years ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Free Wheelin' My song pick four years ago today: Rush - Limbo My song pick five years ago today: Stevie Wonder - Superstition My song pick six years ago today: Red Hot Chili Peppers - Soul To Squeeze My song pick seven years ago today: Electric Light Orchestra - Fire On High My song pick eight years ago today: The Polyphonic Spree - It's The Sun

From: Clutching at Straws ; Year: 1987; Genre: Progressive Rock Having a busy day, so I'm making a pick from a band that I am very well acquainted with and like a lot. This is a song that is very soulful and heavy; the music and lyrics are melded together very well to make a very emotionally heavy song that makes a comparison of people who are unemployed to the confectionery treat Sugar Mice melting in the rain. Almost 30 years since its release and is still all too relevant. Hear Sugar Mice on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Pink Floyd - Money My song pick two years ago today: American Breed - Bend Me, Shape Me My song pick three years ago today: Jethro Tull - Cat's Squirrel My song pick four years ago today: Amon Amarth - A Beast Am I My song pick five years ago today: Steve Vai - Little Green Men My song pick six years ago today: Fairport Convention - Maddy Groves My song pick seven years ago today: Billy Joel - Allentown My song pick e...

From: Lightning Strikes ; Year: 1986; Genre: Metal/Hard Rock I had not heard anything from the band Loudness in a while until last night; I thought I'd go ahead and pick one of their songs. It's definitely a mid 80s metal track in every way, but still awesome. Hear Let It Go on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Carmen - She Flew Across the Room My song pick two years ago today: California Guitar Trio - Ghost Riders on the Storm My song pick three years ago today: Al Di Meola and Steve Vai - Race with the Devil on Turkish Highway My song pick four years ago today: Nightwish - Beauty of the Beast My song pick five years ago today: L'Arc~en~Ciel - Spirit Dreams Inside My song pick six years ago today: Led Zeppelin - The Battle Of Evermore My song pick seven years ago today: Jethro Tull - Black Satin Dancer My song pick eight years ago today: Rush - Limelight

From: On the Threshold of a Dream ; Year: 1969; Genre: Progressive Rock It's another day that I heard a song the day prior and it's still in my mind; as I always do, I'm picking it. In the Beginning , which is mostly spoken word with electronic background music/sounds, is often used as an intro to both Lovely to See You Again and the album as well, the same as with all of their records from the time. The smooth rhythm and memorable riff that drives it makes this track the hit that it is. Hear In the Beginning/Lovely to See You Again on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Ian Anderson - Tripudium Ad Bellum My song pick two years ago today: Alice in Chains - Rooster My song pick three years ago today: Steve Vai - For the Love of God My song pick four years ago today: Mastodon - Seabeast My song pick five years ago today: Vangelis - Blade Runner (End Titles) My song pick six years ago today: Karussell - Wer Die Rose Ehrt My song pick seven year...

From: Reise, Reise ; Year: 2004; Genre: Neue Deutsche Härte/Industrial Metal I haven't been listening to much Rammstein for a while now, but this morning I was in the mood for some of their music. Kind of surprised that I haven't picked this one yet; it's one of my favourites off of this album. Hear Stein um Stein on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Porcupine Tree - Start of Something Beautiful My song pick two years ago today: Parliament - Funkentelechy My song pick three years ago today: Aerosmith - Make It My song pick four years ago today: The Rolling Stones - Beast of Burden My song pick five years ago today: Modest Mouse - Float On My song pick six years ago today: Eric Burdon & The Animals - When I Was Young My song pick seven years ago today: Stevie Nicks - Edge of Seventeen My song pick eight years ago today: Alexander Porfiryevich Borodin - Polovtsian Dances

From: Fly High, Fall Far ; Year: 1984; Genre: Progressive Rock/Hard Rock I had this second prog/rock wave band on my mind this morning, and since I had not picked from them in some time, it seems like a good time as ever. Fly High, Fall Far is the first song off of their debut EP of the song's namesake. Definitely mid 1980s progressive rock in almost every way, however, their sound definitely hearkens back to the previous generation prog greats, especially Genesis and Pink Floyd; you can definitely hear their influences on this track in particular. Hear Fly High, Fall Far on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Luther Davis Group - Keep On Dancing My song pick two years ago today: Tarot - Wings of Darkness My song pick three years ago today: John Denver - Shanghai Breezes My song pick four years ago today: Aphrodite's Child - The Beast My song pick five years ago today: Duran Duran - Lonely In Your Nightmare My song pick six years ago today: Jethro T...

From: Stormwatch ; Year; 1979; Genre: Progressive Rock I heard this rather long and epic song the other day and it was in my mind whilst I was contemplating which song I should pick, so I am. This one is put together quite interestingly with the verses that are rather intricate and mournful but contrast to the upbeat sound when it launches into the chorus with full-blown majors and then back again. But for me the instrumental section which is full-blown Scottish jig with all the bombasticness of their signature style of progressive rock. As you can probably discern by the title, this song is mostly about the legendary ship of the same name and fits in at the end of this loose concept album as a metaphor and warning for the arrival of the end of the world; the Flying Dutchman can finally end its voyage and come back to port, just as the seafaring legend states. Hear Flying Dutchman on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Stone Temple Pilots - Vasoline My song pick tw...

From: The Man With The Horn ; Year: 1981; Genre: Jazz Fusion/Funk If my numbers are correct, today marks my 130th consecutive Funky Friday; 130 weeks straight of picking something funk or funk related to mark the end of the workweeks. Anyway, the funky latinesque groove is what really catches my attention every time I hear it; Marcus Miller's bass in particular. With this tight and complex rhythm it gives an excellent platform for Miles Davis to work his magic he's so known for. Hear Aïda on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: James Blunt - So Long, Jimmy My song pick two years ago today: Alestorm - Death Throes of the Terrorsquid My song pick three years ago today: Of Monsters and Men - Mountain Sound My song pick four years ago today: Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast My song pick five years ago today: Larry Graham & Graham Central Station - The Jam My song pick six years ago today: Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli (Quintett...

From: The Sentinel ; Year: 1984; Genre: Progressive Rock Just needed something from earlier Pallas this morning. I've almost exhausted their epic concept album The Sentinel and am now down to the tracks that were added because of their label's pressure. Despite this fact Cut and Run is not a bad track by any measurement; everything from the odd time signatures to the complex instrumentation/arrangements. This song in particular reminds just a wee bit of Queensrÿche of the same time period. Hear Cut and Run on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Sky - Dies Irae My song pick two years ago today: Buddy Holly - Crying, Waiting, Hoping My song pick three years ago today: Waylander - Erdath My song pick four years ago today: Jim Croce - Workin' at the Car Wash Blues My song pick five years ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - Flaming Telepaths My song pick six years ago today: AC/DC - Carry Me Home My song pick seven years ago today: The Eagles - Get Ove...

From: Facelift ; Year: 1990; Genre: Alternative Metal/Grunge I have been meaning to pick one from Alice in Chains for a few days now. This single off of their debut album is very much what would be expected from early 1990s Alternative Metal and one of my personal favourites. Hear Sea of Sorrow on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Big Brother and the Holding Company (Janis Joplin) - Summertime My song pick two years ago today: Genesis - Seven Stones My song pick three years ago today: Stuart Hamm - Call of the Wild My song pick four years ago today: Wilson Pickett - Funk Factory My song pick five years ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Life Still Goes On (I'm Lonely) My song pick six years ago today: Nirvana - In Bloom My song pick seven years ago today: Static X - I'm With Stupid My song pick eight years ago today: Ian Anderson - Eurology

From: Metal Jukebox ; Year: 1999; Genre: Power Metal/Synthpop While out and about I heard the original version of this song; ever since I had it and many of the cover versions on my mind; mostly this power metal interpretation by the band Helloween. Definitely a unique take on the dance hall synthpop classic, but it's definitely a fitting track all the way around. Hear Lay All Your Love On Me on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Drifters - There Goes My Baby My song pick two years ago today: Soundgarden - Spoonman My song pick three years ago today: Jethro Tull - Heavy Horses My song pick four years ago today: The Monkees - Daydream Believer My song pick five years ago today: Muse - Resistance My song pick six years ago today: Jethro Tull - From A Deadbeat To An Old Greaser My song pick seven years ago today: Fleetwood Mac - Oh Well My song pick eight years ago today: Aerosmith - Janie's Got A Gun
