Who gets you through life / what music do you listen to?

Man, great post! Music gets me through the day and is the only thing that makes commuting tolerable.

Here's a few that I am into.

Dave Rawlings Machine
Gillian Welch
Townes Van Zandt
Mother Hips (local and awesome live)
Old Crow Medicine Show
Todd Snider
John Prine
Flying Burrito Brothers
Kasey Chambers
Ryan Bingham


Check out Dave Rawlings. He could be one of the best guitar players out there right now. IMHO.

Green Onions and the Dave&Sam vids. I know very well and are rare. most of the old footage is bands lip syncing and dead mics.(i seen me sum white girl legs in them vids!)

WHO?!....i just cant bare that stuff,,,,,,dont take offense, there is alot i cant take(see Chadrock & amphibion)

How about this?  It's country, but GOOD country...

we opened for this guy a few weeks ago, his band is fantastic:

the link got lost in the communication.....and i want to hear what GOOD country sounds like....darn it!

Dood,that was like a movie!!!!  too bad all country songs cant come packaged like that!  i needed the visuals, like my favorite books, lots of big pictures.


have you ever played this one?  it's old country(according to Ytube)

WHO?!....i just cant bare that stuff,,,,,,

Fair enough. I used to fell exactly the same way.


Give this one a try. Not country.

I should have known better than to group all those as country....dood, those Mother Hips guys can stroke it!!   I LIKE IT!!   Grinding Bass and good riffs make my head go up and down. Thanks for openning my mind even further.

Jazz, since it's broadcast radio to get the mind off everyday routine thing but when I get a chance classical is good too.

Newage is also up there with classical. 

Coolest music?  I'm on the John Coaltrain, Chris Cornell, Chet Baker voyage this month.
I found a site called "itunes" or somthing like that and I spend most my tackle money there now.
This ipod shuffel is crack.  My girly gots me eet for Christmas and now I am ruined!  I can't wait to kayak with it and be run over buy a boat to put me out of my misery!

That's awesome! I think I saw them a half dozen times in the 90'

Check this.

BHS is a bit on the Thrash Metal side for me......but that vid was nice.

Wht.Stripe rocks, but i just cant see me headbanging to a chick on drums

...........but i can nod my head to this old salsa music I was exposed to in my teens(hanging with the wrong crowd).......the native sounds of the Congas Timbales and Bongos, combined with Bass and Piano, throw in a horn section and opps! i almost forgot!
WE NEED MORE COWBELL!!!!!!

Fania was a record label...they put the best of the best together and called it TheFaniaAll-Stars and they were from the Bronx NewYork.American born PuertoRicans and a few good ol' white guys (that got caught up hanging with the wrong crowd)



there were many orquestras back then, i'll throw a few more into the mix(even if you don't understand it) niether do i, i just listen to the music.

HectorLavoe and WillieColon dominated!!!!  (until that heroin got Hector)


Sonora Poncena........it will put you in an island, covered in green, latin girls surrounding you, just close your eyes&you'll see.

not trash i said THRASH as in, "it was a Thrashing, repetative beat"

that second one was way a different style than the first song....but i need more bass and swear words.
