3573. Midnight Oil - Warakurna

Image
From: Diesel and Dust ; Year: 1987; Genre: Alternative Rock I had some of the 'Oils on my mind today; one of my favourite bands I think I've mentioned before, thought I'd pick another one from them. This is an a-typical one with their signature sound and subject matter; a great track. Hear Warakurna on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Outfield - Your Love My song pick two years ago today: Jefferson Starship - Jane My song pick three years ago today: Deep Purple - My Woman From Tokyo My song pick four years ago today: The Allman Brothers Band - Ramblin' Man My song pick five years ago today: Van der Graaf Generator - Pioneers Over c. My song pick six years ago today: Al Di Meola - Race With Devil on Spanish Highway My song pick seven years ago today: Falco - Titanic My song pick eight years ago today: The Guess Who - Undun My song pick nine years ago today: Lynyrd Skynyrd - The Ballad of Curtis Loew

3572. Stuart Hamm - Radio Free Albemuth

Image
From: Radio Free Albemuth ; Year: 1988; Genre: Progressive Rock/Jazz Fusion As odd happenstance would have it I was already going to pick this song, which features both Joe Satriani and Allan Holdsworth on guitar only to find out that the legendary guitarist Holdsworth passed away a few days ago... dang; he was a major musician who played all over the place and influenced many guitarists. Even if you do not know of him by name there's a pretty good chance you've heard him play at one time or another. Anywho, about the song: Radio Free Albemuth changes up grooves and time signatures throughout with contrasting and well-defined sections that are expertly pieced together with amazing musical mastery throughout. Hear Radio Free Albemuth on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Central Line - Walking Into Sunshine My song pick two years ago today: Zakk Wylde - Way Beyond Empty My song pick three years ago today: XTC - Travels in Nihilon My song pick four year...

3571. Rose Royce - Car Wash

Image
From: Car Wash ; Year: 1976; Genre: Funk/Soul/Disco If my numbers are correct this is my 190th consecutive Funky Friday pick; almost to 200. Anyway, last night I had another Rose Royce track come on my phone and I enjoyed it so much that I felt like picking another one of their songs today. As you probably already know, this thumping disco/funk song is the title track from the classic film Car Wash 's soundtrack and was also the band's debut album; and wot a way to debut. I'd hazard to guess that most everybody alive has heard Car Wash or at least parts of it at some time. Hear Car Wash on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Camel - Never Let Go My song pick two years ago today: Jerry Reed - The Legend My song pick three years ago today: Curved Air - Heaven (Never Seemed So Far Away) My song pick four years ago today: Alestorm - Rum My song pick five years ago today: Bachman & Turner - Slave to the Rhythm My song pick six years ago today:...

3570. Roxy Music - Out of the Blue

Image
From: Country Life ; Year: 1974; Genre: Rock/Glam Rock In the mood for another one from Roxy Music; this rather interesting one. The violin solo with all the wild effects present really is something to hear. Hear Out of the Blue on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - Heavy Metal: The Black and Silver My song pick two years ago today: Primus - Shake Hands With Beef My song pick three years ago today: Cher - Dark Lady My song pick four years ago today: Curved Air - U.H.F.

3569. For Squirrels - Disenchanted

Image
From: Example ; Year: 1995; Genre: Alternative Rock For Squirrels is a band that I haven't thought of in a while; I guess it's kind of a rediscovery of sorts. This was one of my favourites from their second album; I love the melancholy feel of this one, which is only made all that more interesting by the waltz beat. Hear Disenchanted on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: AC/DC - Jailbreak My song pick two years ago today: R.E.O. Speedwagon - Roll With the Changes My song pick three years ago today: Alan O'Day - Undercover Angel My song pick four years ago today: Mudhoney - Something So Clear My song pick five years ago today: Sylvia - The Matador My song pick six years ago today: Rush - By-Tor & the Snow Dog My song pick seven years ago today: Uriah Heep - Stealin' My song pick eight years ago today: Fleetwood Mac - Go Your Own Way My song pick nine years ago today: Ludwig van Beethoven - WoO59 - Fur Elise

3568. Iain Matthews - Gimme An Inch Girl

Image
From: Stealin' Home ; Year: 1978; Genre: Rock Today some of his music was going through my mind, so I thought I'd pick another one. Gimme An Inch Girl is one that has a lot of the late '70s/early '80s sound throughout, but not quite dated either. Hear Gimme An Inch Girl on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Marmalade - I See the Rain My song pick two years ago today: Maddy Prior - Long Shadows My song pick three years ago today: Béla Fleck and the Flecktones - Let Me Be the One My song pick four years ago today: Finntroll - Ett Norrskensdåd My song pick five years ago today: Johann Sebastian Bach - BWV Anh. 117a, 117b - Polonause in F Major (from Anna Magdalena Notebook II ) My song pick six years ago today: Exist†Trace - Requiem My song pick seven years ago today: Meat Loaf - Two out of Three Ain't Bad My song pick eight years ago today: Christian Pezold - BWV Anh. 115 - Minuet in G Minor (Anna Magdalena Notebook II) My son...

3567. Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains the Same

Image
From: Houses of the Holy ; Year: 1973; Genre: Hard Rock The past few days I've had Led Zeppelin come on; figured it was a sign I should choose another one. Hear The Song Remains the Same on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Argent - Trapeze My song pick two years ago today: Stanley Clarke - Play the Bass My song pick three years ago today: Weather Report - Orange Lady My song pick four years ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Wild Spirit My song pick five years ago today: Wings - Jet My song pick six years ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Welcome Home My song pick seven years ago today: Puhdys - Alt Wie Ein Baum My song pick eight years ago today: Christian Pezold - Minuet in G Major (Anna Magdalena Notebook II), BWV Anh. 114 My song pick nine years ago today: Berlin - The Metro

3566. Hot Butter - Telstar

Image
From: Popcorn ; Year: 1972; Genre: Electronic Rock Whilst the original Tornadoes version was featured a lot of electronic sounds, this interesting cover really takes it to the next level with a wall of synth. A total joy to listen to if you are a fan of big synth and electronic pop. Hear Hot Butter's version of Telstar on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Nazareth - Hair of the Dog My song pick two years ago today: The Allman Brothers Band - Pony Boy My song pick three years ago today: The Alan Parsons Project - Games People Play My song pick four years ago today: Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4 My song pick five years ago today: Rush - A Farewell to Kings My song pick six years ago today: Steeleye Span - Robbery With Violins My song pick seven year ago today: Jethro Tull - Dark Ages My song pick eight years ago today: The Blind Boys of Alabama - Amazing Grace   My song pick nine years ago today: Emerson, Lake & Palmer - From The Beginning

3565. Queen - Keep Yourself Alive

Image
From: Queen ; Year: 1974; Genre: Hard Rock Since yesterday I had this entire album on my mind. I might've said this before, but it's astounding to think this was a band's debut album with the material, the arranging, and the production value. Anyway, this is probably one of the most popular songs from the record and is an exposé of Brian May's musicianship on the guitar as well as Freddy's vocals. Hear Keep Yourself Alive on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Brass Construction - Changin' My song pick two years ago today: Stealers Wheel - Right or Wrong My song pick three years ago today: Rush - Before and After My song pick four years ago today: Stratovarius - Atlantis My song pick five years ago today: Alestorm - Pirate Song My song pick six years ago today: Steve Vai - The Attitude Song My song pick seven year ago today: Richard O'Brien & Richard Hartley (from The Rocky Horror Picture Show) - Science Fiction/Double...

3564. The Headhunters - Actual Proof

Image
From: Thrust ; Year: 1974; Genre: Funk/Jazz Fusion I love to revisit Herbie Hancock's Headhunters' records; perfect for this Funky Friday pick. This is a great 9-plus minute musical journey of epic proportions. Really though, if you think about it this album only has 4 songs on it and not one song less than 7 minutes in length. About the only genre outside of progressive rock/metal to make such large and interesting pieces of music. Hear Actual Proof on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Jethro Tull - Old Ghosts My song pick two years ago today: Rush - The Wreckers My song pick three years ago today: Ian Anderson - After These Wars My song pick four years ago today: Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal My song pick five years ago today: Paper Lace - The Night Chicago Died My song pick six years ago today: Muse - Starlight My song pick seven years ago today: Styx - Lorelei My song pick eight years ago today: Three Dog Night - Never Been To Spain...

3563. Savatage - Summer's Rain

Image
From: Gutter Ballet ; Year: 1989; Genre: Progressive Metal Yet another song I thought for sure I had picked before; one of my favourites from the Savatage/JOP/TSO family of bands. The music combined with the haunting and deep lyrics make for one awesome, epic track. Hear Summer's Rain on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: John Denver - Everyday My song pick two years ago today: Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker My song pick three years ago today: Carmen - I've Been Crying My song pick four years ago today: Banchee - 38 My song pick five years ago today: Xerath - Unite to Defy My song pick six years ago today: John Fogerty - Centerfield My song pick seven years ago today: The Chambers Brothers - Time Has Come Today My song pick eight years ago today: John Denver - Take Me Home, Country Road My song pick nine years ago today: Nirvana - Lithium

3562. Soundgarden - By Crooked Steps

Image
From: King Animal ; Year: 2012; Genre: Alternative Metal Got in the mood for some Soundgarden today, so, yeah I'm picking one of their songs. This was one of the lead singles from King Animal and shows why throughout. With how great this album was I cannot wait to hear the next one they're working on. Hear By Crooked Steps on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Brave Belt - Never Comin' Home My song pick two years ago today: Marillion - The Uninvited Guest My song pick three years ago today: Rammstein - Nebel My song pick four years ago today: Rush - The Necromancer My song pick five years ago today: Les Elgart - Bandstand Boogie My song pick six years ago today: Oomph! featuring Nina Hagen - Feiber My song pick seven years ago today: The Guess Who - Minstrel Boy My song pick eight years ago today: Metallica - Nothing Else Matters My song pick nine years ago today: Steely Day - Rikki Don't Lose That Number

3561. Counting Crows - Round Here

Image
From: August and Everything After ; Year: 1993; Genre: Alternative Rock Was revisiting this album yesterday; it's one that holds a lot of sentimentality mostly because of the time period it came out. Hear Round Here on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Devo - Through Being Cool My song pick two years ago today: Depeche Mode - Personal Jesus My song pick three years ago today: Larry Graham and Graham Central Station - G.C.S. My song pick four years ago today: Rush - Big Money My song pick five years ago today: Jethro Tull - Lifebeats/Prelude/The Silver Cord/Re-Assuring Tune My song pick six years ago today: The Doors - When the Music's Over My song pick seven years ago today: Emerson, Lake and Palmer - Tank My song pick eight years ago today: Emerson, Lake and Palmer - Karn Evil 9 My song pick nine years ago today: Kenny Rogers & the First Edition - Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)

3560. Jethro Tull - The Pine Martin's Jig

Image
From: A ; Year: 1980; Genre: Folk Rock/Hard Rock Feeling really sick today, so I'm making a quick pick. This is one of my favourites from the album, which is a great mix of the older hard folk rock era and the newer electronic music they were moving into. Hear The Pine Martin's Jig on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Rush - Making Memories My song pick two years ago today: Dayton Sidewinders - Let’s Go Down to Funksville My song pick three years ago today: The Saxons - The Saxon War Cry My song pick four years ago today: Queen - Princes of the Universe My song pick five years ago today: Supertramp - Rudy My song pick six years ago today: Louis Armstrong & His Orchestra - Alexander's Ragtime Band My song pick seven years ago today: Tears For Fears - Break It Down Again My song pick eight years ago today: Dream Theater - 6:00   My song pick nine years ago today: The Rolling Stones - Street Fighting Man

3559. The Charlie Daniels Band - Long Haired Country Boy

Image
From: Fire On The Mountain ; Year: 1974; Genre: Country After yesterday's pick I decided to go back deep into my queue of songs and see what I missed. This is one I thought for sure I'd picked it, but I guess I was in error. Even people who don't particularly like country music would like this one; mostly because of the message of someone livin' his life as he sees fit. Hear Long Haired Country Boy on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) - Lodi My song pick two years ago today: Lynyrd Skynyrd - All I Can Do Is Write About It My song pick three years ago today: Frank Zappa - Montana My song pick four years ago today: Boston - Don't Look Back My song pick five years ago today: Beat Crusaders - Hit in the USA My song pick six years ago today: ABBA - Thank You for the Music My song pick seven years ago today: Genesis - Home By The Sea My song pick eight years ago today: Alannah Myles - Black Velvet My ...

3558. Fletcher Henderson and Louis Armstrong - Money Blues

Image
From: Timeless Historical Presents Fletcher Henderson and Louis Armstrong 1924-1925 ; Year: 1924/25; Genre: New Orleans Jazz/Dixieland Back some six years ago or so I was really wanting to pick this song, but could never find it on YouTube or another streaming service, so I just made a note of it in my queue of unpicked songs and checked every now and then for it, but eventually gave up. Today, on a lark I decided to check, and sure enough, not only was it there, but from an official source too. It's amazing how much things have changed with music and YouTube since I first started this blog over nine years ago. Because companies and artists would take down and go after people the choices I could make back then were very restricted, but now... it's really night and day difference. Anyway, this is one of those feel good pieces of jazz you'd expect to hear playing behind an old silent film or during a Vaudeville act. Of course hearing Pops in his earlier years is a treat...

3557. Kool & The Gang - Jungle Boogie

Image
From: Wild and Peaceful ; Year: 1973; Genre: Funk These Funky Fridays are coming faster at me, or at least it seems that way for me. Anyway, here's a mondo popular anthemic funk track from Kool & The Gang; sure to get your feet and butt movin'. Hear Jungle Boogie on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Beatles - For You Blue My song pick two years ago today: Boston - I Had a Good Time My song pick three years ago today: Sky - FIFO (suite) My song pick four years ago today: Faith No More - Easy My song pick five years ago today: Pallas - Rise and Fall, Part 1 My song pick six years ago today: Counting Crows - Mr. Jones My song pick seven years ago today: Creedence Clearwater Revival - Lookin Out My Back Door My song pick eight years ago today: The Grass Roots - Midnight Confessions My song pick nine years ago today: The Tornadoes - Telstar

3556. Pallas - Falling Down

Image
From: XXV ; Year: 2011; Genre: Progressive Rock/Hard Rock Both a busy day and not feeling well, which is not a good combination when looking for inspiration for a song to pick. So, I went to one of my "go to bands" and chose this, the opening track to their 2011 XXV album. To my ear it is almost like a mix between one of Dream Theater's more recent tracks and late '80s Rush... maybe I'm just crazy. But whatever the case I love the hard, progressive rock goodness throughout this one. Hear Falling Down on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Gordon Lightfoot - Carefree Highway My song pick two years ago today: Molly Hatchet - Whiskey Man My song pick three years ago today: Alphaville - Forever Young My song pick four years ago today: Metallica - For Whom the Bell Tolls My song pick five years ago today: Sly and the Family Stone - Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin) My song pick six years ago today: Iron Maiden - Flight of Icarus ...

3555. The J. Geils Band - Love Stinks

Image
From: Love Stinks ; Year: 1980; Genre: Rock Yesterday I learned that band leader of The J Geils Band, John Geils, was found dead ; I thought I would pick one of their songs today. While they've never been one of my favourite bands, I still like their music; Love Stinks is probably my favourite of their song if I had to pick one. Hear Love Stinks on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Savatage - Of Rage and War My song pick two years ago today: Frank Black - Headache My song pick three years ago today: Jethro Tull - Two Fingers My song pick four years ago today: Paul Simon - Hobo's Blues My song pick five years ago today: Megadeth - Sweating Bullets My song pick six years ago today: Kristoph Klover - Fire in the Sky My song pick seven years ago today: David Bowie - The Supermen My song pick eight years ago today: The Rolling Stones - 2000 Light Years From Home   My song pick nine years ago today: Garbage - Push It

3554. Steely Dan - Don't Take Me Alive

Image
From: The Royal Scam ; Year: 1976; Genre: Rock/Jazz Fusion Today is one of those days that seem to be happening a lot lately where I binge on an album and pick a song from it. Don't Take Me Alive is not one of my biggest favourites from the record, but still one I like a lot. I really love the guitar throughout in particular. Hear Don't Take Me Alive on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Jethro Tull - Black Mamba My song pick two years ago today: Michael Martin Murphey - Medicine Man My song pick three years ago today: The Jimmy Castor Bunch - It's Just Begun My song pick four years ago today: Marillion - Script for a Jester's Tear My song pick five years ago today: Carmen - Purple Flowers My song pick six years ago today: Rammstein - Keine Lust My song pick seven years ago today: Big Brother and the Holding Company (Janis Joplin) - Piece Of My Heart My song pick eight years ago today: Nightwish - The Kinslayer My song pick nine y...

3553. Al Di Meola - The Wizard

Image
From: Land of the Midnight Sun ; Year: 1976; Genre: Jazz Fusion/Rock I've been meaning to pick one from Al Di Meola lately; finally getting around to it. This is more or less an exposition of his and his guest musicians' prowess, but is still very listenable to those who want to rock out. The Wizard is one of the more hard rock based instrumentals on the album with a good dose of jazz in there for good measure. Hear The Wizard on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Rhapsody of Fire - Dark Wings of Steel My song pick two years ago today: Parliament - Flash Light My song pick three years ago today: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Breakdown My song pick four years ago today: Marillion - Garden Party My song pick five years ago today: Alestorm - Heavy Metal Pirates My song pick six years ago today: Guns N' Roses - Sympathy for the Devil My song pick seven years ago today: Bon Jovi - Bounce My song pick eight years ago today: The Platters - ...

3552. Billy Joel - Uptown Girl

Image
From: An Innocent Man ; Year: 1983; Genre: Rock/Pop The other day my wife was listening to one of her cell phone radio stations and this track came on; it's been with me ever since. Uptown Girl is another one of those songs that is both extremely catchy and very interesting musically. From wot I understand, Billy Joel wanted to make this song in the style of The Four Seasons , which he did pretty good in that endeavour. Hear Uptown Girl on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Aerosmith - What it Takes My song pick two years ago today: Queen - Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy My song pick three years ago today: Rush - The Trees My song pick four years ago today: Jethro Tull - Orion My song pick five years ago today: Genesis - The Return of the Giant Hogweed My song pick six years ago today: Rush - The Seeker My song pick seven years ago today: Queen - The Show Must Go On My song pick eight years ago today: Sammy Hagar - I Can't Drive 55   My song ...

3551. Alice in Chains - Dirt

Image
From: Dirt ; Year: 1992; Genre: Alternative Metal/Grunge I noted over the last few weeks that songs from Alice in Chains' Dirt album have been playing a lot on my phone's playlist, so I thought I should pick one, and wot better one than the title track. While some might say Dirt is very depressing, it's a very heavy, deep, and powerful song. Hear Dirt on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Kool & the Gang - Funky Man My song pick two years ago today: Jethro Tull - Too Many Too My song pick three years ago today: Metallica - (Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth My song pick four years ago today: Guns 'N Roses - Welcome to the Jungle My song pick five years ago today: Jerry Goldsmith - Star Trek: The Motion Picture Main Title/Klingon Battle My song pick six years ago today: Queensrÿche - Welcome to the Machine My song pick seven years ago today: Sheena Easton - For Your Eyes Only My song pick eight years ago today: John Denver - Season Suite...

3550. Bootsy's Rubber Band - Under the Influence of a Groove

Image
From: This Boot is Made for Fonk-N ; Year: 1979; Genre: Funk Another Funky Friday is here; was in the mood for some P-Funk and chose this funky track from Bootsy Collins' band, which should get ya up and moving to that funky groove. Hear Under the Influence of a Groove on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Redbone - Come and Get Your Love My song pick two years ago today: Petula Clark - A Sign of the Times My song pick three years ago today: Iron Maiden - Wrathchild My song pick four years ago today: Guns N' Roses - Paradise City My song pick five years ago today: Ian Anderson - Shunt and Shuffle My song pick six years ago today: Def Leppard - Waterloo Sunset My song pick seven years ago today: John Denver - Spirit My song pick eight years ago today: Sly and the Family Stone - Everyday People My song pick nine years ago today: David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust

3549. Carmen - Dedicated to Lydia

Image
From: The Gypsies ; Year: 1975; Genre: Progressive Rock/Flamenco Rock Sadly, I will not be able to pick another song from this album again unless I start picking songs already on chosen, which probably won't happen. I cannot believe that I've picked every other song off Carmen's The Gypsies album; it is one of my favourites, so yeah. At least they have two other records to pick from. Anyway, this one has a beautifully contrasting sounds between the great acoustic flamenco picking and heavy bass/beat. Hear Dedicated to Lydia on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Toccata My song pick two years ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll My song pick three years ago today: Queen - Invisible Man My song pick four years ago today: Journey - Stone in Love My song pick five years ago today: Ian Anderson - Banker Bets, Banker Wins My song pick six years ago today: Ugly Kid Joe - Cat's in the Cradl...

3548. Duran Duran - Out of my Mind

Image
From: Medazzaland ; Year: 1997; Genre: Rock/Pop/New Wave Was just in the mood for some Duran Duran today; thought I'd pick this one from their Medazzaland album. Hear Out of my Mind on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Kansas - Journey from Mariabronn My song pick two years ago today: Jimi Hendrix Experience - Hey Joe My song pick three years ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Takin' Care of Business My song pick four years ago today: Return to Forever - Jungle Waterfall My song pick five years ago today: Midnight Oil - Best of Both Worlds My song pick six years ago today: Northern Kings - Don't Stop Believin' My song pick seven years ago today: King Crimson - Thela Hun Ginjeet My song pick eight years ago today: Jaco Pastorius - Slang My song pick nine years ago today: Falco - Der Kommissar

3547. The Psychedelic Furs - Pretty in Pink

Image
From: Talk Talk Talk ; Year: 1981; Genre: New Wave/Pop I was a victim of an earworming or so it would seem; I like the song, which brings back a lot of great memories, so it's not bad. It's hard for me to believe that The Psychedelic Furs did this song over 35 years ago; it just can't be. Oh well, I guess songs like this, which enable you to enjoy some good old nostalgia, are the closest things to time travel we have. Hear Pretty in Pink on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Cesar 830 - Bridges My song pick two years ago today: Ugly Kid Joe - So Damn Cool My song pick three years ago today: Rage Against the Machine - Renegades of Funk My song pick four years ago today: Triumph - Fight the Good Fight My song pick five years ago today: Rammstein - Dalai Lama My song pick six years ago today: Savatage - Day After Day My song pick seven years ago today: ? and the Mysterians - 96 Tears My song pick eight years ago today: Pink Floyd - Goodbye Bl...

3546. The Doobie Brothers - Black Water

Image
From: What Were Once Vices are Now Habits ; Year: 1974; Genre: Rock/Country For some unknown reason I have had The Doobie Brothers' Black Water running through my mind; and since I have not picked one from them in a while I thought I'd go ahead and picking. The overall slow, lazy, laid back feeling of this track and all of the influences make for a song that has a certain wide appeal. Hear Black Water on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Moontrekkers - Dance Legless, Russian My song pick two years ago today: Larry Graham and Graham Central Station - Groove On My song pick three years ago today: Primus - Tommy the Cat My song pick four years ago today: Bon Jovi - Livin' on a Prayer My song pick five years ago today: Fleetwood Mac - Dragonfly My song pick six years ago today: Queen - Good Company My song pick seven years ago today: Wolfsheim - Über's Jahr My song pick eight years ago today: Alice in Chains - Man In The Box My son...

3545. Pink Floyd - Coming Back to Life

Image
From: The Division Bell ; Year: 1994; Genre: Progressive Rock After binging on Pink Floyd's The Division Bell album I had this rather interesting and deep track on my mind. Hear Coming Back to Life on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Aerosmith - Livin' on the Edge My song pick two years ago today: Black Sabbath - Tomorrow's Dream My song pick three years ago today: King Crimson - One More Red Nightmare My song pick four years ago today: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here My song pick five years ago today: Dudley Moore Trio - Yesterdays My song pick six years ago today: Jethro Tull - With You There To Help Me My song pick seven years ago today: Dizzy Gillespie and His Orchestra - Things to Come My song pick eight years ago today: Simon & Garfunkel - Hazy Shade of Winter My song pick nine years ago today: Lita Ford feat. Ozzy Osbourne - Close My Eyes Forever

3544. Roxy Music - Sentimental Fool

Image
From: Siren ; Year: 1975; Genre: Progressive Rock/Glam Rock It's the first of April, so happy April Fools' Day ! I'm again picking an aptly titled song for the occasion; this one from the art-rock pioneers Roxy Music just felt perfect. I thought I'd picked a song from them prior, but I guess I haven't, so at least that's remedied. Hear Sentimental Fool on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Azteca - A New Day on the Rise My song pick two years ago today: Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) - Evil Woman My song pick three years ago today: The Main Ingredient - Everybody Plays the Fool My song pick four years ago today: Bee Gees - I Started a Joke My song pick five years ago today: Nocturnal Rites - Fools Never Die My song pick six years ago today: Larry Graham & Graham Central Station - Can You Handle It? My song pick seven years ago today: Led Zeppelin - Fool in the Rain My song pick eight years ago today: Styx - Fooling Yourse...
