First track of the day for 2013 comes from the era when LWFS boogied on down the dancefloor of your local club......she has such a sweet voice.

I was watching Later with Jools Holland last night and a young singer named Rumer came on. All of a sudden I was in the back of my dad's car in 1972 listening to WABC. Very Karen Carpentery and just lovely.

Indeed marvelous, like Jools said. I'm guessing that's not "Daughter of Bruno."

I'm not sure if i ever put up a Felice Brothers track before, but I saw them as the one of the opening acts for Mumford & Sons on Wednesday and was inspired to do so. If I could find a decent video for "Cooperstown" I would have put that up, but this is a good one as well.

|
| Edgy MD Mar 18 2013 03:32 PM Re: Track of the Day - Fonzie Edition - This thread needs YO |

Mostly yea. The guitar sounds like the tone from "I Will Dare," which I can barely resist on its own, but Paul is barely playing it, going down for a strum every four beats (kind of reminiscent to the opening of "Make a Circuit with Me") for large chunks of the song. It's an appropriate track from a collection called Songs for Slim, because that's kind of what it ultimately is --- a pretty good song arranged on a pretty good skeleton of a mix, waiting for the lead guitarist to come in and define its character.

You got it. Incidentally, the DJ of the radio station it's played on, Tommy "The Nightmare" Smith is played by Axl Rose, and he is effectively a parody of Axl Rose. I wonder if Axl got it.

Nonsense. It's a quasi-religious experience because "Patti" in the video is played by a 19-year-old Elizabeth Daily. And you, Second Spit, are a closet member of the Church of Elizabeth Daily.

I always believed "Patti" was the same chick from "Don't Stop Believin'"; don't ask me why. Maybe because there was similarity in the stories. Last time I drove around California, I put on the entire K-DST playlist (Axl's station) on by iPhone. I should point out that I probably sunk over 30 hours into GTA:San Andreas and K-DST is the only radio station I listen to, hence my spiritual experience. It's a kickass playlist:

This thing is stuck to my brain like bubblegum to a PF Flyer. If someone told me it was a Gillian Welch cover I'd probably nod my head and say 'of course it is.' Elsewhere they sound a bit more Simon and Garfunkely, but this is the standout track for me.

I really fell for that album last year. Sought out the band a couple times to see if it held up live (the music or my crush) and it mostly did. This is their first full-length and they have 2 EP's before this where they introduced some Caribbean vibes with steel drums and stuff. Some OK material there, but those songs changed the live vibe a little bit from the thematic 'Lonesome Dreams'. 'The Man Who Lives Forever' from the full-length has some of that feel, and that was my least fav track on the album. [youtube]gsAMmWj3J3I[/youtube]

I know Lana Del Rey has been a hot topic, pro and con, but I never gave her much thought until I went to see The Great Gatsby. Her song "Young and Beautiful" was used wonderfully in the movie, and appears twice on the soundtrack in different but equally fine versions. The whole soundtrack, for that matter, is excellent with only one or two (Fergie) exceptions.

I had never heard of this band until this morning when I saw this video on Palladia. They are three sisters from California plus a drummer, and their band is called Haim (rhymes with time), which is their family name. They used to play in a cover band with their parents, and now are out on their own and getting a bit of buzz. This song is catchy as hell.

Iron + Wine is basically one guy. His more recent albums are bigger, full on productions with background singers, percussion, the whole shebang. His first few albums are very sparse, vocals, guitar, banjo, overdubs of harmonies. Simple and beautiful. Relatively easy chord structure, for those of you guitar slingers out there.

Hippy trippy pop, 2013 style. I have no idea why there's an apostrophe in their name, and I wish I would have posted this on Monday. A recent staple on Palladia's morning video playlist.

Somebody described the Mowgli's as aping a Christian Rock style. They are lively for sure, about 6 songs into their rekkid I had to see a dentist.

I saw a guy named Jon Paul open a house concert last year, and about halfway through his first song I realized what it reminded me of - Dennen's "Darlin', Do Not Fear." Dennen's voice is definitely an acquired taste, but I like him as well.

A few of you know of Dave Carter, who died eleven years ago today. He kicked around in all sorts of bands before he hit his stride in his mid-forties, partnering with violin player and singer Tracy Grammer to form a duo that was rising in the folk community. Dave went out for a run the morning of a show, had a heart attack when he got back to his hotel, and was gone.

JCL is spending the day on Rdio reminding me of how much I loved Trevor Rabin during that one summer in my high school years.

Coolio, I like how it kinda straddles the line between hot summer nights late-70s classick rock of BOC and jangly early-80s pop nu wave of maybe the Paul Collins Beat.

I'm in a weird mood today. I rejected 90125-era Yes pretty swiftly -- I realize now I was instinctively defending the hit-free classic "prog-era" Yes, who didn't need my defense in the first place and I can't say I ever loved much to begin with -- but I've been warming to some of that stuff only recently. It started when my local Klassik Rawk station played "Leave It" instead of "Owner of A Lonely Heart" for a billionth time. The production was all really 80s on that stuff but some of it is pretty good! I really like "I'm Running" from BIG GENERATOR and the first 5 or 6 cuts on that Rabin solo album are real fun.

I'm having trouble figuring out where Trevor Rabin ends and where Trevor Horn begins.
|
| TransMonk Aug 02 2013 05:42 PM Re: Track of the Day - Fonzie Edition - This thread needs YO |

Horn began while Steve Howe was still around...just after the radio star bit the dust. His production did provide the gleam to Rabin's songs that made Yes commercially successful in the '80s.

| Edgy MD Aug 02 2013 09:50 PM Re: Track of the Day - Fonzie Edition - This thread needs YO |

I read something saying that Horn has been called "The Man Who Invented the Eighties." There are worse things to be. Suck it, Clive Lnger and Alan Winstanley.

There are a small handful of bands that I get completely fanboi irrational about. Dream Theater is one of those bands. New record next month.

Early eighties Irish rockers. As a three-piece with an Arrow guitar, kinda presents like Triumph. But it's more like early Petty/Heartbreakers (or pre-explosion ZZ Top) as a snapshot of the industry transitioning from the old sound and look (bluesy, blue jeans, hippy) to the nu (detached, sophisticated, quirky, voice filter).

What was up with those t-shirts? And looked like a waistband tape-measure thingy in the background. They kind of come off a little Atlanta Rhythym Sectiony.

I agree.

As a coming band from Fermanagh, achieving Atlanta Rhythm Sectionness and getting an endorsement deal with Lee was no small achievement.

The isolated vocal track from "Under Pressure." I only hear one edit in it, with a couple of Freddie harmony overdubs missing, so the final cut seems to have come largely from an edit of two takes.

I'm a guitar player and a riff guy. This is a damn riff. Heard it on my 16 mile run yesterday at about ten past 7 in the AM and in my head it resides.

"Tenderness" by General Public meets mid-90's Yo La Tengo. Good find!

I was vibing on "Push" by the Cure until that chimey keyboard thing happened.

Rest of the album is more straightforward power pop, less falsetto. Turns out the singer/bandleader (Rich Hill) is actually better known for comedy.

Meet the new Marshall Crenshaw. For some reason I think I've linked to one of his songs before. Anyway, new album is swell, lots of Marshall and Chris Isaak and Buddy Holly. John Paul Keith and the One Four Fives:

How long has he been at it? I figure you have to have taken a few trips around the block before you write a song about death as a career move.

The legendary DC indie/punk band The Dismemberment Plan have reunited after a 10-year seperation and have a new album Uncanney Valley. The first track released "Daddy Was A Real Good Dancer" is an upbeat power pop song with depressing lyrics. The link goes to Soundcloud because it ain't available on YouTube.

So, apparently, Smashing Pumpkins put out an album last year and I missed it entirely. I stumbled across a live concert film on Palladia a week ago and heard some catchy stuff so I downloaded the entire Oceania record and it's quite good.
