Image
From: Joe Cocker ; Year: 1972; Genre: Blues Rock/Soul I've had music from Joe Cocker running through my mind this morning; took it as that I needed to pick another one of his songs.

4528. Earth, Wind & Fire - Tee Nine Chee Bit

Image
From: Open Our Eyes ; Year: 1974; Genre: Funk/Soul Had Earth, Wind & Fire on my mind today; I thought this would make an incredible Funky Friday pick.

4526. "Weird Al" Yankovic - Bohemian Polka

Image
From: Alapalooza ; Year: 1993; Genre: Comedy/Parody For no reason whatsoever, as far as I could tell, I felt like picking this cover/parody of Queen's epic Bohemian Rhapsody by the one and only "Weird Al." As with most of his polkas this one is quite complex and not just a quick funny song. Hear Bohemian Polka on YouTube.

4525. Blue Öyster Cult - Let Go

Image
From: Revölution By Night ; Year: 1983; Genre: Hard Rock Picking another song from Blue Öyster Cult today; it's been in my mind for a while now.

4524. The Steve Miller Band - My Own Space

Image
From: Book of Dreams ; Year: 1977; Genre: Blues Rock I've already chosen a lot of songs from this great album, so I'm going a bit deeper with this pick. As with most of the band's records from the '70s, this one is recorded and produced to be played in its entirety; I think they call it now " Album Oriented Rock " or something like that. Because of this track is quite digestible to all listeners if they like the singles from the record. Hear My Own Space on YouTube.

4523. Pallas - The Executioner (Bernie Goetz a Gun)

Image
From: The Wedge ; Year: 1986; Genre: Progressive Rock Here's some more neo-prog/rock; this one being my favourite band of the type. I like the heavier sound of this song; it really launches into the choruses quite nicely. Hear The Executioner (Bernie Goetz a Gun) on YouTube.

4522. Twelfth Night - Fact and Fiction

Image
From: Fact and Fiction ; Year: 1982; Genre: Progressive Rock In the mood for some Neo-Prog/Rock today; I have not picked one from Twelfth Night in a while, so I will now.

4521. Funkadelic - Butt to Buttresusitation

Image
From: Tales of Kidd Funkadelic ; Year: 1976; Genre: Funk Another Friday has come to pass so it would seem.

4520. James Gang - Walk Away

Image
From: Thirds ; Year: 1971; Genre: Hard Rock Woke up the other day with this song playing in my head; I was lucky enough to remember it when making today's pick. This is a song that probably most who listen to classic rock radio will immediately recognize. Joe Walsh's unmistakable guitar playing and the solid riff based backing by bass and drums really make this song wot it is. Hear Walk Away on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Carmen - Looking Outside (My Window) My song pick 2 years ago today: The Guess Who - Cardboard Empire My song pick 3 years ago today: Jigsaw - I've Seen The Film, I've Read The Book My song pick 4 years ago today: Dio - Holy Diver My song pick 5 years ago today: Dazz Band - Joystick My song pick 6 years ago today: Black Sabbath - Iron Man My song pick 7 years ago today: Ella Fitzgerald - Stormy Weather My song pick 8 years ago today: Dead Meadow - Greensky Greenlake My song pick 9 years ago today: Yes - Owner o

4518. Mastodon - Steambreather

Image

4517. Hall & Oates - Head Above Water

Image
From: Private Eyes ; Year: 1981; Genre: Pop/Rock I had this song come on whilst driving yesterday and I thought it'd make a real good for today. This one's slightly heavier and more rock oriented than their normal sound. Hear Head Above Water on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Vince Guaraldi Trio - Alma-Ville My song pick 2 years ago today: INXS - New Sensation My song pick 3 years ago today: Amii Stewart - Knock on Wood My song pick 4 years ago today: Link Wray - Comanche My song pick 5 years ago today: Foo Fighters - Everlong My song pick 6 years ago today: Rush - The Analog Kid My song pick 7 years ago today: The Alan Parsons Project - The Tell-Tale Heart My song pick 8 years ago today: Red Hot Chili Peppers - Ethiopia My song pick 9 years ago today: Bass Extremes - Glorious Pastorius My song pick 10 years ago today: Alexander Courage - Where No Man Has Gone Before (Theme From Star Trek ) My song pick 11 years ago today: The Temptati

4516. Jigsaw - Come With Me

Image
From: Aurora Borealis ; Year: 1972; Genre: Rock Was drawing a blank today for my pick, so I went to one of my many standbys, which happened this time to be the band Jigsaw.

4515. Alestorm - Alestorm

Image
From: No Grave But The Sea ; Year: 2017; Genre: Power Metal/Pirate Metal A lot of Alestorm's newest album has been coming up whilst driving, so I'm gonna pick one from it; it must be a sign, right?

4514. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Jungle Man

Image
From: Freaky Styley ; Year: 1985; Genre: Funk Rock It's another Funky Friday unless I'm mistaken.

4513. Grand Funk Railroad - Sin's a Good Man's Brother

Image
From: Closer to Home ; Year: 1970; Genre: Hard Rock Been hearing a lot of Grand Funk Railroad today, so I thought I'd pick another one.

4512. Fairport Convention - Reynardine

Image
From: Liege & Lief ; Year: 1969; Genre: Folk Rock This is a very pretty and chilling rendition of the traditional folk piece by Sandy Denny when she was with Fairport Convention. As with a lot of songs of this type, Reynardine has a moral/warning in the story with this one of being for young women to beware of crafty men. Hear Reynardine on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: The Kinks - Introduction to a Solution My song pick 2 years ago today: Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - Mary Jane's Last Dance My song pick 3 years ago today: ABBA - Head Over Heels My song pick 4 years ago today: Dr. John - Right Place Wrong Time My song pick 5 years ago today: Billy Joel - All for Leyna My song pick 6 years ago today: Santo & Johnny - Adventures in Paradise My song pick 7 years ago today: Megadeth - Blackmail the Universe My song pick 8 years ago today: Black 47 - Fire of Freedom My song pick 9 years ago today: Aerosmith - Amazing My song pick 10 ye

4511. Duran Duran - The Universe Alone

Image
From: Paper Gods ; Year: 2015; Genre: New Wave/Pop I felt like picking some newer Duran Duran today; I cannot say it's my favourite album from the band, but it's pretty good in its own right.

4510. Emerson, Lake & Palmer - The Only Way (Hymn)

Image
From: Tarkus ; Year: 1971; Genre: Progressive Rock/classical In the mood for some EL&P today; for the music is the main draw in this song.

4509. Boston - Sail Away

Image
From: Life, Love & Hope ; Year: 2013; Genre: Rock I heard this song for the first time the other day and I found it interesting, a lot of mixing of sounds. You can tell that Tom Scholz was us to his normal duty of over engineering his work, which almost always equals a very good product as a rule. This track has a very modern feel to it with some of the aspect he put into it. It's of course quite nice to hear the vocals of Brad Delp once again. Hear Sail Away on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: The Coasters - Searchin' My song pick 2 years ago today: Wooten, Chambers, Franceschini - Funky D My song pick 3 years ago today: Elton John - Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding My song pick 4 years ago today: Paco de Lucía - La Barrosa (alegrías) My song pick 5 years ago today: Jon Oliva's Pain - I Fear You My song pick 6 years ago today: Soundgarden - Blow Up the Outside World My song pick 7 years ago today: Genesis - For Absent Friends My

4507. Amnesty - Can I Help You?

Image
From: Free Your Mind ; Year: 1973; Genre: Soul/Funk An almost 8 minute epic track full of soul and funk for this Friday. I absolutely like the vocals throughout this one; a truly great track.

4506. John Oliva's Pain - Looking for Nothing

Image
From: Festival ; Year: 2010; Genre: Rock You can certainly hear the Beatles influence in this song; Paul McCartney's style in particular. There is more than enough of Jon Oliva and his own writing style in this one to keep it very much his own in my opinion though. Hear Looking for Nothing on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Pallas - Arrive Alive My song pick 2 years ago today: Devo - Are U X-perienced? My song pick 3 years ago today: Nena - ? (Fragezeichen) My song pick 4 years ago today: Rush - Mission My song pick 5 years ago today: Amnesty - Love Fades My song pick 6 years ago today: Gerry Rafferty - Days Gone Down (Still Got The Light In Your Eyes) My song pick 7 years ago today: Tommy James - Mirage My song pick 8 years ago today: The Rolling Stones - In Another Land My song pick 9 years ago today: Iron Maiden - Satellite 15... The Final Frontier My song pick 10 years ago today: Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) - Hold on Tight / Epilogue

4505. Genesis - The Fountain of Salmacis

Image
From: Nursery Cryme ; Year: 1971; Genre: Progressive Rock The Fountain of Salmacis really does make a good ending song for this album; an excellent book-end for the opening track: The Musical Box . I love the layers of music and vocals on this track, so much to listen to. Hear The Fountain of Salmacis on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Klaatu - Doctor Marvello My song pick 2 years ago today: Olivia Newton-John - Have You Never Been Mellow My song pick 3 years ago today: America - Man's Road My song pick 4 years ago today: Bernard Wright – Haboglabotribin’ My song pick 5 years ago today: Meat Loaf - I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That) My song pick 6 years ago today: The Beach Boys - I Get Around My song pick 7 years ago today: Dick Dale - Nitro My song pick 8 years ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - Astronomy My song pick 9 years ago today: Yoshiki Fukuyama - Angel's Voice My song pick 10 years ago today: The Kinks - (Wish I C

4504. Rush - The Big Wheel

Image
From: Roll the Bones ; Year: 1991; Genre: Hard Rock I've always been a fan of the '80s/late '90s sound of Rush, just not my favourite era of the band, but still love the music from that era. This song doesn't have the big sound most think of from Rush and may not be a "cup of tea" for most fans of the band, however it has its place and is a good track on its own merits. Hear The Big Wheel on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Genesis - Invisible Touch My song pick 2 years ago today: Jim Croce - One Less Set of Footsteps My song pick 3 years ago today: Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Jeremy Bender My song pick 4 years ago today: Peter, Paul & Mary - I Dig Rock And Roll Music My song pick 5 years ago today: Ozzy Osbourne - So Tired My song pick 6 years ago today: Mastodon - Iron Tusk My song pick 7 years ago today: Rammstein - Rammlied My song pick 8 years ago today: Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400 My song pick 9 years ago today:

4503. Ozric Tentacles - Dissolution (The Clouds Disperse)

Image
From: Pungent Effulgent ; Year: 1989; Genre: Psychedelic Rock/Space Rock/Progressive Rock I'm in the mood for something off the wall today; can't go wrong with some Ozric Tentacles then. This really neat piece of music comes from one of their earlier albums that got, I guess, a proper release; they had quite a few albums prior, but were only released on cassette and such. Hear Dissolution (The Clouds Disperse) on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Bob Dylan - Main Title Theme (Billy) My song pick 2 years ago today: Pat Metheny - Bright Size Life My song pick 3 years ago today: Earth, Wind & Fire - Back on the Road My song pick 4 years ago today: Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Cinnamon Girl My song pick 5 years ago today: Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) - Another Heart Breaks My song pick 6 years ago today: Jethro Tull - Critique Oblique My song pick 7 years ago today: Hawkwind - Adjust Me My song pick 8 years ago today: Frank Zappa - Treacherou

4502. U2 - Seconds

Image
From: War ; Year: 1983; Genre: Rock A bit ago I was meaning to pick this song from U2, but another song just seemed like a better choice for that day. Now I'm finally able to get around to adding this one to my blog. Hear Seconds on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Rammstein, featuring Viktoria Fersh - Moskau My song pick 2 years ago today: Led Zeppelin - Black Dog My song pick 3 years ago today: Guns N' Roses - Patience My song pick 4 years ago today: Yes - It Was All We Knew My song pick 5 years ago today: Billy Joel - Worse Comes to Worse My song pick 6 years ago today: Marillion - Assassing My song pick 7 years ago today: Ian Anderson - Kismet in Suburbia My song pick 8 years ago today: Hawkwind - Fable of a Failed Race My song pick 9 years ago today: Billy Joel - It's Still Rock and Roll to Me My song pick 10 years ago today: Daft Punk - One More Time My song pick 11 years ago today: Al Stewart - Time Passages My song pick 12 ye

4501. Rare Earth - Ma

Image
From: Ma ; Year: 1973; Genre: Hard Rock/Psychedelic Rock/Funk Heard some Rare Earth yesterday and it got me in the mood to make one my pick today.
