Share a Favorite Song or Music Artist

I listen to all types of music, and since we have such a diverse community I thought it would be fun to share a favorite album or artist with others.

My pick today is Ziggy Marley.

He is the son of reggae legend Bob Marley, and in my opinion he sounds very much like him.

His latest release is on iTunes from a live performance at SoHo.  Any fan of his should check this out.

Amazon also has a single of his for free, so it's a great opportunity for others to check out.

I haven't seen Robin Trower since 'The Old Grey Whistle Test'. Thanks for that.
End of quote

I saw Trower back in the days when he was with Procul Harum in the late 60's... thought he was a good guitarist then, but he went from strength to strength once he'd launched his solo career.  I've heard it said that Trower is no more than a Hendrix wannabe, but that is far from truth as he has his own writing and playing style... he took the music beyond where he'd found it.

Another guitarist who was very much under-rated.... Alvin Lee of Ten Years After.  The selected clip is 'Help Me' from  TYA's first album, performed live at the Marqee Club.

Probably the most technically awesome guitarist who ever walked the planet is Roy Buchanan I saw him live twice in Brisbane (Oz), both concerts were exceptional displays of absolutely superb axe playing.  Sadly, Buchanan was arrested for drunkeness and in shame hung himself in his cell.

One of my all time favorite songs. I didn't post it earlier because I didn't know it was available anywhere to download..for FREE!

WMMR in philadelphia used to have a graveyard show on Saturdays nights and it was the only station I ever heard play this. It's a pleasure to be able to share this with anyone.

Another feel good tune: Zebra, from Aussie band The John Butler Trio.  This was a must have tune the first time I heard it, so ended up buying the DVD, John Butler Trio: Live at Federation Square.... the rest of which is pretty ace, too.

Saw them live quite a few years ago. Great performance, but I felt a bit out of place - the next oldest person to me there was less than half my age...

Promising girl rock band of the same era who didn't last five minutes... shame.
