Kudos to Adele for making Spotify remove the "shuffle" album default (which stung me more times than I care to admit).  I meant to listen to her to reward her efforts.

Now if Spotify would just pay the artists more, that would be better.

Centipede steps.

Me:  Organ Freeman (LOL)

Isobel Campbell, Mark Lanegan

It was Sheena Ringo's birthday Wednesday (11/24), and I've been on a Tokyo Incidents kick, so I celebrated her birthday by listening to メートル法のたわごとトン of her solo music, not unlike 

I realize no-one cares, but I got her birthday wrong, it was the 25th.

Prepping for the second night of Get Back.

https://hostsonaten.bandcamp.com/album/symphony-n-1-cupid-psyche

Retro revivalist prog -- this album is instrumental, but not all of them are -- absolutely sublime pseudo-classical album

https://nickjohnstonmusic.bandcamp.com/album/young-language

Instrumental rock -- about 50% vocals, loved this album -- really strong song- and melody-writing, not just another shred artist

https://negura-bunget.bandcamp.com/album/z-u

Alternating between ambient and black metal, I adored this album, the ambient portions were just beautiful, and the black metal portions just made my internal goth/metalhead very happy

https://twrp.bandcamp.com/album/new-improved

First track is fusion, the rest of it is a party -- funk/synthwave/R&B...and one spoken word thingy -- just fun from beginning to end

Also-rans:

Cynic, Ascension Codes -- not gonna lie, this is their weakest effort, just not as good without the Seans, still a strong album, something weird about the production, though

Voices, Breaking the Trauma Bond -- varying between full-on harshes black/death metal, and gothy rock/metal, very much liked

Oasis - Knebworth 1996

Great live set! Hard to believe it would be all downhill from here.

I've probably posted this before, but I love Presuntos Implicados, Randy Crawford and this tune

 

[Voltron]

I've never heard of Randy Crawford but Wikipedia says she has been more popular in Europe than the US even though she is American.

You can hear a younger Randy Crawford on this.

If you listen very carefully you might be able to hear me in the audience (true story).

This. It's pretty terrible IMO and not because of Alison Krauss. The highlight was hearing Robert plant sing Lucinda William's, Can't Let Go:

It's over, I know it but I can't let go
It's over, I know it but I can't let go
It's over, I know it but I can't let go

...yes Mr. Plant, it is.

Listening to a playlist I put together of my favorite album closing tracks.  I've found myself really drawn to a lot of these songs lately and I don't know what it is, but artists really have a knack for closing out albums with some amazing songs.

This playlist on shuffle rarely disappoints.

Listened on and off for hours today. Only moment of confusion was some guy growling for seemingly ever. Otherwise, it was fun listening!

Jenny Lewis – Acid Tongue

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. Going through the takes. It’s… amazing. 24/192 on Apple Music.

Take 6 of “Love” is, wow: this should have gone on the album. I also just realized that the intro is essentially the same as that for “Yesterday:” I instinctively started singing “Yesterday.”

Anyway. 

I understand why this is an out-take: it is slow and jangly and a little out of tune. But wow.
