the new Regina Spektor cd "far"

**WannaBe_80z** · 07-26-2009, 06:58 PM

That cd is decent. My gf has it.

Who would have thought that Mandy Moore could have made a decent record? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMg-HrZR78Q

"Far" by Regina Spektor is good (no surprise here) and Jenny Owen Youngs "Transmitter Failure" is also kind of nice.

Few music lovers here...

No, just few posters. Everyone loves music.

Listening to OTT's latest release of his live show. Very good.

What kinda blues?

F**ked up bluesy stuff...

Left Lane Cruiser, Scott H Biram, Bob Log III, The Immortal Lee Country Killers, Quadrajets, Black Diamond Heavies.

More traditional blues...

Skip James, Mississippi John Hurt, I'll get back to you on that front...

Matters on what kind of sound you're looking for. Some blues is so old school, you'd have to be in love with the genre to like it. I mean, it' old, old school; analogous to Hank Williams Sr. (the yodeling, et al) to Hank Williams Jr. (more progressive).

I've always been a fan of John Lee Hooker - go find "Boom Boom". If anything, that's a bit uptempo. But his voice, ability to play... he's great.

I'm also a fan BB King - seen him a ton of times. Again, more uptempo usually. Thrill is Gone is very well known... you've invariably heard this.

For old, old, old school... Robert Johnson. His whole background is around his deal with the devil. Wicked slide guitarist though.

This is where I usually get in trouble. I truly didn't like Muddy Waters. Yes, he's good, but something about his more well known music turned me off when I was first introduced to blues as a kid. Mannish Boy - EVERYBODY knows this song. Then I heard a version he had done live in a club from a bootleg cassette... yeah, he played the LIVING **** out of a guitar. A solo like no other. And I went backwards. Got My Mojo Working, Rolling Stone... the earlier recordings are better.

If you want down home... non-Pop blues, don't look for ZZ Hill. Way more pop than anything else. But look for Mississippi Delta Blues. I can't name one dude at all though that sticks out. Perhaps Howlin' Wolf.
