Music I have never got bored of

When you say old time lets start with some Mississippi Delta Blues... where it all began.

Muddy " Mississippi" Waters

Thanks ! Muddy waters and koko Taylor I knew already but will try the others. One time when I was a kid I took the greyhound from Memphis to New Orleans and said that would go back to that place again for a road trip with a car - need to do those kind of things now before it's too late

The name of that train is "City of New Orleans". A route taken my many travelers over the years made famous by Arlo Guthrie

What a great song, thanks for reminding me!

Its more like a national anthem in the US

This was a bus ! But was great fun all the same

Made a bit of a dent in these now - good stuff though not so keen on the Son Seals.

I'm not very keen about Frenchie today or their revolution but they have a good stuff like that:

Song from early 18th century. Nice....

Zdravko Colic - Zar se nismo shvatili - (Official Video) HD

youtube.com/watch?v=443PQnPiIpk&list=RD443PQnPiIpk&start_radio=1

Probably not too many here will appreciate my choices, but they are all by a music legend and one of my all-time favourite artists.
This first track is also one of my all-time favourite songs.

Ry Cooder - The Very Thing That Makes You Rich (Makes Me Poor)

youtu.be/SvTb9UQJNJw

Ry Cooder - The Prodigal Son

youtu.be/HEUIZWyieAk

Ry Cooder - Dark Was the Night

youtu.be/de3xz1AV8HA

Ry Cooder - See you in hell, blind boy

youtu.be/8Km1gSuDzN8

I was wondering why after all these years of knowing about Ry Cooder I never real got into him.
Your videos explained it for me.
I enjoyed them all, he is obviously very talented.
But, for me, he is a bit bland.......not enough "Oomph" for me.....I prefer my music with more emotion or more power.
Sorry Pam, but he just doesn''t light my fire.

Did you ever see the guitar duel between Ry Cooder and Steve Vai in the movie Crossroads? Ry cooder wrote the soundtrack, its an awesome flick if you haven't seen it before.

youtu.be/TD4o3VDnftI

This should bring back some memories!

Its funny watching Vai get all upset and walk off the stage.... Like that would really happen..lol opps they cut it short, check out the movie...

@Joker

Believe it or not I have never seen that clip before.
Excellent stuff.

So tonight I have just three posts.
All by American artists, that I think link well to these apocalyptic times.
This is a guy that I have only recently disovered.
Jonathan Wilson with '69 Corvette.......listen to the lyrics......pure Americana and gorgeous.

youtu.be/EGyg7pvkhOw

This is quite an old tune now, but very American and with poignant lyrics.
This is Temple of the Dog with Hunger Strike.

youtu.be/VUb450Alpps

My third and last post tonight.
This is Jonathan Wilson again, but with a vey different tune.
This is called Desert Raven.
Again a post apocalyptic American view but with heavy Floydian undertones.....
I think it is superb.
Look after yourselves in these difficult times.

youtu.be/-hYiY1vOOVw

I bought this CD when it came out, its Cris Cornell ( Soundgarden) and Eddie Vedder ( Pearl Jam) effort. Theres a 5:00 grunge guitar solo on it...

youtu.be/Wp-KrJGb5Sk


You never seen the movie " Crossroads" before? Hahaha.. Its a classic! All about Blues..


Im listening to it right now, sounds good. Its making me feel like rolling up a joint:)


Heres a Blues night cap for you.....

Charlie Musslewhite and Ben Harper......Nightclub

youtu.be/N7-xaal8qkI

Buy a Night club and right it off own your income tax!

@Joker
It's just gone 11.30 at night here, time to hit the sack.
That tune was a great way to end the day.
Brilliant.

Hey Crow, Have you heard of this chick?
Katarina Pejak is a singer/songwriter and piano player based in Nashville, TN. She was born in Belgrade, Serbia. Katarina is blues influenced, both as a writer and pianist

youtu.be/q9o9F_Bsfds

She's really talented.


Com` on its Saturday night old man!

Damn Milo did you take me back to some serious nostalgia with those three tunes.
Thank you man as I sure did enjoy them tonight as I sit here in my toasty house with a fire going in the fireplace.

Raining out, windy and cold as I sat here listening to those tunes sipping some Jagermeister.

Glad to be of service mate :-)

Here it is sunny, clear blue skies without a cloud and quite warm.... too hot for a winter coat....

This band are from Leicester.
Pronounced Lester and not Lestirshire.
This is a town thar morons like Dirk Diggler insist are overun by Asians or especially by "neckbeards"( whatever they are)
But, as usual, he is talking bo $$ocks....hey, just enjoy the music....

youtu.be/KekiupIKEWo

I am only posting songs by Skam tonight.
A very good Hard Rock band from Leicester that take their music seriously but not themselves.
This is called "Massacre".

youtu.be/vbHP8LuWDDk

More from Skam.

youtu.be/15VF32tOrck

My last post from Skam tonight.
This is called "No Lies" which I think is very apt right now.

youtu.be/byolF3k-8nk

Good band Milo!

Seldom hear a heavy metal band with good vocals....

Heres Norways best kept secret!

Christina Skjolberg

She is good..... very good..... new name for me as well.

Oh well, can't win 'em all!


The soundtrack is the reason I watched the film, but I did enjoy it, and yes, the guitar duel is great. Seems a lifetime ago now. I also really liked the soundtrack he did for the film Paris, Texas.


I really liked this tune! Not sure why but something aboit it reminded me of the band America. I also like this one by him:

Jonathan Wilson - "The Way I Feel"

youtu.be/lNCxDOHwRlY

A few more slightly diverse choices of mine:

Muddy Waters - Mannish Boy

youtu.be/bSfqNEvykv0

Muddy Waters - Hoochie Coochie Man

youtu.be/e_l6A7krjrQ

Steve Earle - Copperhead Road

youtu.be/xvaEJzoaYZk

Ok, I'm gonna butt in.

Just when you read 'light my fire', you just need to think of the Doors. At least I do.

Pretty much everyone heard of them so nothing unusual but I listened to them a lot when I was living at a certain place. Every time I listen to them now, I just go back to that place. Music sometimes does it, doesn't it.

It kind of brings back memories, images and even smells.

So here we start with a song I really didn't know was about drugs; )
The Crystal Ship

youtu.be/imcHmSUVEvk

Alabama Song

youtu.be/PAK5blgfKWM

People are strange

If you like that, you may like this which follows it in the original Mahagonny-Songspiel (and the bigger opera they made it into).

Grreat posts, loved them all.

@Chemikiem
Wow!
From Robert Johnson to Led Zeppelin..... a great choice of tunes from two of my favourites as well.
The Zep tunes are amongst my favourites too.
I got bored of "Stairway to Heaven" many years ago (I have read that Robert Plant hates it now) and "Battle of Evermore" has replaced that for me now.

@NoToForeigners

I enjoyed that remix.
Worked for me.

Most of the British Hard Rock bands that emerged in the late sixties and early seventies had their chief influences from the Blues.
Led Zeppelin were no exception.

@Chemikiem

This is one you missed.... ;-)

The odds of anyone else enjoying this are minimal, but here goes:

Xeic! - Som! - it's unashamedly pro-Catalonia, pro-independence.

And for the hell of it, my favourite Bruce Springsteen song, Badlands:

You are spot on there mate...... ;-)

And I hate Bruce Springsteen as well.... sorry...... :-(
