Huge fan until after "In the Land of Grey and Pink"... they split up and it was never the same. I had wondered where some of this stuff had gone from youtube but someone put this together... 1st 2 songs are pretty legit.

Today I did a teaching peer review for one of our younger faculty members (this is where senior faculty observes a lecture and gives constructive criticism). In general, the lecture was well-done. However, every time a slide contained some written text, the young assistant professor read it (which is fine), but also accompanied his words by following the slide text with a pointer. Of course, this is completely unnecessary, but I also remembered I had seen that before...

(You have to be a bit patient; the first occurrence is around 1:45)

Dunno if I was ever binked enough to proffer this one. Deeeeeeeep prog rock track. 4 band members, stitching contribs into one big track. Particularly favor the Guy Manning middle sections around 8:30 up to "running round in circles".

Rock/Jazz from England, from 1970 (thanks to German public TV). Sadly, Dick Heckstall-Smith (sax) and John Hiseman (dr) are no longer with us.

 

 

Was never impressed by them but they fall into the category I love the best, the one or two off bands of the late 60/early 70's. Try this for a one off..

Ever heard of The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger? If not, can you guess the identity of the lead guitarist/vocalist?

Here we have them in a band set-up...

 

 

And here as an acoustic duo...

 

 

I don't have a single clue who the singer is. But I like it a lot. Im texting my son and asking if he knows them. One of their songs reminded me of Cults. So if they are new maybe they were an influence.  The band name is witchy.

 

EDIT: I googled. Oh My No I'd have never caught that. Interesting thanks for posting!

 

no reply to text yet

 

EDIT: son replied he did know them. He said that his prior band played a festival with them In Mexico City years ago. @DrW

I think that Steve Stevens plays a mean guitar, and is underrated.  I went deep into my CD-turned-digital collection recently, and revisited Billy Idol's stuff.  Cool tunes, great player.

 

Also, during our QBR (quarterly business review) in Orlando last week, I got re-acquainted with Beastie Boys' "Ill Communication" whilst listening on the plane.  Forgot how great of an album that one was.

Robert Wyatt's "Rock Bottom" is one of my favorite albums. IMHO, the best track is "Sea Song". I just learned very recently that a live version exists.

 

 

Here is the original studio recording; it is so beautiful...

This song, written by Warren Zevon when he was dying of lung cancer, is absolutely heartbreaking.

 

 

I completely agree. It reminds me of an other case of cancer which took a life much too early. In 2017, the front woman of Those Darlins, Jessi Zazu, died of ovarian cancer at the age of 28. A couple of years earlier, she had written a song "Ain't Afraid". It is not clear if she knew about her cancer diagnosis when she wrote this song.
