From: Blind Melon; Year: 1992; Genre: Alternative Rock
Had this album on my mind today for some reason; as per usual I'm picking a song from it. Whilst not as catchy as other songs on the record this one is just as excellent in my opinion; it's a nice song to hear on days such as this.

6993. Mannheim Steamroller - All Hallows Eve

-
Image
From: Halloween ; Year: 2003; Genre: Neoclassical/Symphonic Rock Happy Halloween! Strange that I have not added one from the famous and venerable neoclassical outfit Mannheim Steamroller yet. But it is such a perfect occasion for one of their Halloween albums; I believe that this is one of the songs that was completely original, written by Chip Davis. Great atmosphere that would fit any party or just if you want to sit back, and relax in a spooky mood.   Hear All Hallows Eve on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: Whodini - Haunted House of Rock     My song pick 2 years ago today: Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party     My song pick 3 years ago today: Coven - Black Sabbath   My song pick 4 years ago today: Muse - You Make Me Feel Like It's Halloween   My song pick 5 years ago today: Black Sabbath - When Death Calls   My song pick 6 years ago today: Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath   My song pick 7 years ago ...

6994. ZZ Top - I Heard It On the X

-
Image
From: Fandango! ; Year: 1975; Genre: Southern Rock/Blues Rock Wow, a whole new, fresh, and unused month starts today; let's start it in style. Actually had this short, but sweet tune from the 'Tres Hombres' from Texas on my mind the last couple of days; of course, you know wot that means.... The "X" they are referring to on this track is the now silent " Border Blaster " radio station out of Mexico: XEROK-AM, aka X-Rock 80. From wot I understand, the station was actually quite popular north of the border and on favourable nights could be heard across the Southwest U.S.. A little trivia: here in the U.S., unless the radio/television station is older than the law and thus grandfathered in, all broadcast stations east of the Mississippi River have their call letters start with a "W", and those west of the river have theirs start with a "K." As far as I am aware Mexican broadcast stations' call letters, as with XEROK start with an ...

6989. C.W. McCall - Classified

-
Image
From: Wolf Creek Pass ; Year: 1975; Genre: Country When I was really, really young I used to listen to this song and record. This song in particular has been on my mind a wee bit as of late due to me beginning restoration on my old, classic truck. It is interesting though when you consider the time of its recording, the rough 1957 Chevrolet half-ton truck would've been only an 18 year old vehicle, which was not quite that old and classic. This is somewhat similar with mine, although mine is a bit older, a Dodge, and a full 1 ton. There is something magical about getting a really old vehicle back on the road. This is a typical C.W. McCall song with the fast country music played behind a country and western rap in which he regales you with the relatable and comedic story.   Hear Classified on YouTube.         My song pick 1 year ago today: John Denver - The Wings That Fly Us Home     My song pick 2 years ago today: Phil Lesh & Friends - Celebration ...
