What are you listening to today?

I know there's a thread around here somewhere (created by Bubba), but I wanted to start a fresh one.

Toss up a couple of album, CD or MP3 covers and show us what's on your iPod, desktop, walkman, discman, hi-fi, turntable, standard or satellite radio.

Some of today's highlights:

For me though, it's time to get funky with the Queen of Soul, straight from Augusta, GA.

Her band kicks major a$$. A real live album treat.

Esperanza Spalding and Vampire Weekend. Other than this, it's all old stuff.

+1 Excellent Choice.

I am listening to me. Im no Tony Rice but I can keep a tune goin. If you know who Tony Rice is you know what I like.

Tony Rice is a Rounder Records bluegrass artist. I remember hearing the cut "Manzanita" back in the 80s.

This guy is a SERIOUS guitarist. :thumb

Man, your living room looks like my shop! I love it. I'm an hour from the ovation factory and usually visit once a year. Fender bought them last January and they have moved Guild and Tacoma from the west coast into the old mill here in CT where they build the Ovations. Can't wait till the next visit...

Most are fairly modern guitars the lighter ovation I bought new in 1970 a nice Gold tone Banjo and the little mandolin is a 1914 Gibson A model nice old piece. Also Winchester 73 on mantel in case things get out of hand.

Trying to figure out how to post the pics .. .. Seems I can only do one?? Well, it's part of what I've been listening to today.

The other cd I was jammin to was their new one - Snakes and Arrows. For some reason, I could only post one jpeg [in my earlier post]. But I note others have had 2-5. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Seen Rush eight times back in my youth.
Before they were successful and definitely took some flack.
Geddy's voice is, after all, an acquired taste.
Is it just me or is he starting to look like a kitchen witch?
The latest show on cable (Palladium) was cool.
Anyone else have the B&W Ricky 4001 and the Ampeg SVT?
I was rockin' back then.

Fred Frith, Tom Cora and Zeena Parkins. Say no more.

Today? Arcade Fire - Neon Bible. Nothing short of sublime.

Tomorrow it could be Miles Davis, Radiohead, The Beatles, Willie Nelson, Kings of Leon (old-not the new crap), Mozart, Cash, Sonic Youth, etc., etc.

Nope. I've been down with Opeth since they released Blackwater Park. Even met the guys. They're cool.

Mayhem? Man, I'll bet we're some of the only ones in the MOA that know about bands like that. Haha. Can't say I really care for them, though. But, if you want some siiiiiick Scandinavian metal, check out Emperor, or specifically;
