I am having a music mid-life crisis or something. I can\'t find any music I get off on and it is terrible. I grew up in a very musical family. My dad had ancient Spike Jones records and all kinds of cool stuff; I went thru my Jr High years listening to the Beatles. Then on to Hendrix, Zeplin, Cream etc. Got very into European traditional music and became a professional musician myself. Went to Berklee College of Music and studied Jazz. Got into a lot of fusion players: John Mcglaughlin, Jean Luc Ponty etc. After I got married and had kids we started listening to New Age (Andreas Vollenveider, Kitaro...). Now my oldest boy likes Country Western and that is on the radio in the car a lot. My wife loves U2, which I can\'t connect with.

I\'m in crisis. I need music. Even something mellow I could listen to while answering email.

I can\'t claim to relate (or even to have heard of) a lot of those.

Personally:

-Radiohead
-Supergrass
-FooFighters (Everlong... please tell me you know it!)
-Greenday (Basket case)
-Feeder
-Ash (Girl From Mars)
-Incubus (current fav., cant get enough of the \"Make Yourself\" album!)
-Oasis

And some curious cross genre ones:
-Robbie Williams
-Erm...ok so that dried up.

There are sooooo many good artists around. Back years ago my absolute favourite was Dire Straits for YEARS. But now I just like so much variety. Went through a stage like what Bruce describes too. /ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif But a bit of a rest from listening to anything helped heaps. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif

I lost my virginity to that Santana album. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif Those are great picks, Seadove. I love the Dixie Chicks. But I\'ve got a country streak a mile wide. Everybody in my family plays guitar, at least all the men do, and we can all sing, both sides of the family. Country music\'s good for singing, always has a strong melody line and usually has good simple harmonies. I saw a thing on tv with the Dixie Chicks in concert and I\'d have given my right arm to be there. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif I love bluegrass and I love some plain old cryin\' in your beer country, too, and the cross-over stuff, a lot of it. But I like any music that\'s done well. I\'ll crank up hip-hop too when I hit something good on the radio. I love old Motown.

I love older pop 60\'s-70\'s, but have heard little in pop music with a few exception since then.

We have some good \'community\' stations over here that are good for getting decent variety and hearing new songs befor the general public knows about them. One station \'Triple J\' even stays away from Britney Spears and way tooo poppy tunes. Better than the commercial stations which are only really good for their \'drive time\' programs first thing in the morning and after work if you ask me.

I guess I\'d like to ramble a bit about this, as I never get the chance any more...Most of the bands people are naming are good and I like them too. My appreciation for the Beatles was always there, but has grown over the years. The weird thing is I really don\'t even own anything to play recorded music on these days.

Leonard Cohen is good, for more recent stuff. Being in the NW I am surrounded by alternative bands, but there is nothing truly new that I\'ve heard. I could play it myself, but what\'s the point? Sometimes I think I\'d have better luck with women (not that it\'s bad now) if I knew more currently popular bands. I\'m not sure it\'s a worthy investment. Maybe I\'ve just heard it all. I think any kind of traditional folk (or classical) music is wonderful, as it\'s all deep, musically accomplished, soulful, and unique; having developed in isolated circumstance. Despite all that, peasants have always enjoyed it. Nowadays there is the crossover aspect that makes it exciting, too. I do know that trad folk music has enough subtleties in it to require a lifetime to decipher. So I\'m OK for now playing Irish music.

I\'ve heard so much music, nothing knocks me off my feet any more. So I more appreciate quiet little subtleties and heart. Whatever\'s happening in the moment I appreciate.

I used to be in a punk band, but am not real excited about punk either.

Bruce, I was into the fusion thing too. I could even play sort of like a typical Jean Luc Ponty guitarist, a tad bit like Jeff Beck. But fusion kind of dried up. Mahavishnu was good enough to take it elsewhere. Miles died. King Crimson was always great, and the Discipline/Fripp/Belew period was particularly brilliant. I liked Philip Glass.

In high school I liked Yes, Genesis, ELP, Zeppelin, Gabreil, UK, Floyd, and various underground progressive bands and spinoffs. Steve Hackett (who was brilliant at expressing plaintive emotion) was my biggest influence on guitar (he and Page) through undergraduate college. Some of my own compositions are related to Hackett. After that I remember listening to Olatunji (african drummer). As far as mother f*cker technical guitarists/musicians go, Allan Holdsworth sort of topped them all; and Steve Morse was no slouch. I miss the days when your friends would turn you on to a blowaway new band full of brilliant musicians who would take you on a journey somewhere. Still, some of that fascination can be chalked up to youth and marijuana -- just the literal sound of it all was enough.

<<You like Britney Spears?>>
Her songs are \'listenable\'. I admire the effort she puts into her live shows, that parts amazing. I\'ve even had her songs in my head. But, generally NO I\'m not really into her. She has talent. Just not to the extent of some others. I tend to put her in the same class as the \'Spice Girls\' etc. Maybe a bit further up. /ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif

<<Doesn\'t she sound commercial like Madona?>>
Madonna is a frikken legend /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif. That women has consistently brought out great tunes since day dot. When I say poppy tunes, Madonna is \'Popular\' and yeah commercial, i spose. It doesn\'t change the fact that her songs are great. /ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif Maybe Britney will surprise one day. But till then Madonna is waaaaaay ahead of her in my opinion. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif

<<Also, do you think that Bob Dylen is also a legend?>>
I\'ve never had an opinion on Bob Dylan. Never been interested. But, to be honest, I\'ve never given his music a chance. One day I\'ll sit down and listen to what he has done. Maybe if I was a generation older things would be different there (???). Dunno.

That\'s got to be Bob Dylan, as his mama named him.

I was a Beatles/Hendrix/etc fan - the 60\'s did produce some exceptional music but Disco pretty much put that to rest.

Classic is where it\'s at for me now. The richness and depth of classical is so much beyond popular music which is increasingly about sex. That\'s fine but there\'s more to human emotions. Love string quartets especially now. Funny how what was once dinner background music costs $50 a ticket.

One underlooked classical composer, an ancestor of mine, is Stephen Foster. A nice combination of American folk with the quality of German Leider.

One thing about living in San Francisco area is that KFOG is back in close to it\'s original format. KFOG and KSAN were the stations for the Summer of Love and still play some serious current music.

One recent find was an album called \"Rasa: Union\" - a takeoff on East Indian music by a Western couple - great bonking music in the spirit of the Kama Sutra.

Did some research for me about Willie Nelson, and inspired by FTR :

FULL NAME: Willie Hugh Nelson
BIRHTDATE: April 30, 1933
BIRTHPLACE: Abbot, Texas
PARENTS: Ira & Myrle Nelson
SIBLINGS: Bobbie Lee (sister)
RAISED BY: Ira’s Parents
MUSICAL INFLUENCES: Willie and Bobbie learned music through mail-order courses taught to them by their grand-parents. \"Daddy\" Nelson bought Willie a Stella guitar when he was 6 years old. The family was deeply involved with the church and gospel music. Willie was obsessed with the radio, listening to the Grand Ole Opry, New Orleans jazz, Big Band singers, black blues from the South, and Western Swing- especially Bob Wills.
RESIDENCE: Texas
SPOUSE: Ann Marie D’Angelo
CHILDREN: Lana (born 1953)
Susie (born 1956)
Paula (born 1969)
Amy (born 1973)
Lukas (born 1989)
Jacob (born 1990)
FIRST PERFORMANCE: Age 5. He recited a poem he had written, at a church picnic.
FIRST GROUP: John Raycjeck’s Bohemian Polka Band, when Willie was 10 years old.
EARLY EMPLOYMENT: Mainly as a disc jockey, but also selling encyclopedia and other door-to-door items.
FIRST RECORDING: \"No Place For Me,\" self financed and sold to his radio listeners in Vancouver, WA in 1956.
EARLY SONGWRITING: In the late 50’s Willie returned to Texas, this time to Houston, where he worked as a disc jockey and performed at the Esquire Club. Here he wrote some of his most memorable work, including \"Night Life\" and \"Family Bible.\" Because of his financial situation, he sold both songs for $200.
MOVE TO NASHVILLE: In 1960, when Willie was hanging out at Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge with other songwriters such as Hank Cochran, Mel Tillis, Roger Miller and Kris Kristofferson.
FIRST SUCCESS: Patsy Cline recorded Willie’s \"Crazy\" in August, 1961. Faron Young followed with \"Hello Walls.\" Both songs reached number one.
FIRST SINGING SUCCESS: \"Willingly\" and \"Touch Me.\" Both were duets with second wife Shirley Collie, and both reached the Top 10 in 1962.
OPRY DEBUT: November 28, 1964.
LEFT NASHVILLE: December 23, 1970, Willie’s house in Ridgetop, TN, burned down. He had just written a song called \"What Can They Do To Me Now.\" After the fire, Willie, family and band returned to Texas.
BREAKTHROUGH ALBUM: Shotgun Willie, in 1973, for Atlantic Records.
MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH: The 1975 album, Red Headed Stranger, with the runaway hit \"Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain,\" that helped establish Willie as one of the top artists in country music. A concept album, the simple instrumentation and spare production ran against Nashville’s thinking at the time.

I also like to take all my favorites from several of a band\'s cd\'s and put them all on one--like Big Head Todd or Me First.
If you haven\'t gotten them though, I\'d recommend the Chili Peppers\' \"By The Way\" and \"Closer\" by Better Than Ezra. Those I can play anywhere.

Ooh, another all-time fave: Super Sexy Swingin\' Sounds by White Zombie. Puts me in a trance.

Turkish music, that could be good.

I heard some quasi-salsa music on the radio driving home. Sometimes I really like Spanish music of any kind, because it\'s so passionate and our culture is SO dry and analytical to me sometimes. The lyric was something about \"you\'re a butterfly and I\'m never going back to you, I\'m a mouse in your mousetrap, dying while living, made a prisoner by your love.\" All of which would be considered a little excessive probably in any kind of English but pretty routine for Spanish. I love flamenco.

Yes, I do, too. Don\'t you think that kind of thing would be considered \"over the top\" or too dramatic in a song in English? To me, Spanish is much better for love songs or songs about love. Closer to the truth, more passionate.

Did you know that Ravi Shankar is Nora Jones\' daddy?

Any one been to Woodstock?

Or at least see the Movie?

Back home, when we talk about music, we landmark the subject as \"pre Woodstock\" or \"After Woodstock\"

Not *necessarily* true. They brought it back for a few years until about 2 years ago when the crowds were so bad. So he could technically be 20-ish. /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif

No, they ran a commercial enterprise with the same name.
Unfortunately, I missed it-was invited to go but couldn\'t. Then again, I\'m an old fart.

Pet Shop Boys. They had a couple of good songs. That \"Go West\" song gave me the sh!ts though.

Is that good or bad? I kinda liked that song actually.

I\'m into oldies in a deep way and I respect quality.

How about Bill Haley with his \"Rock around the clock\"?

And Creedance Clearwater Revival with \"Bad moon rising\"

Hendrix.... Hail the great one. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif Nuthing wrong with him.

Seadove,

Credence, yep! ...a pity that guy was ripped off.
Bill Haley. That\'s a legendary song,but our music teacher used to play him all the time back in 7th or 8th grade. Got soooo sic of the song. I don\'t mind hearing it every now and then though.
\"Always On My Mind\", I like the PSBs version too. I prefer the U2 version of \"Where the Streets Have No Name\" though.

This queen song is in memory of Freddy Mercury.
\"The Show Must Go On\" by Queen at their best. Sadly, this would turn out to be Queen\'s last release before Freddie Mercury\'s death




Empty spaces - what are we living for
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for...
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

Whatever happens, I\'ll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for ?
I guess I\'m learning (I\'m learning learning learning)
I must be warmer now
I\'ll soon be turning (turning turning turning)
Round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I\'m aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah yeah
Ooh, inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

Yeah yeah, whoa wo oh oh

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on) yeah yeah
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on)
I\'ll face it with a grin
I\'m never giving in
On - with the show

Ooh, I\'ll top the bill, I\'ll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the show
On with the show
The show - the show must go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on

Everyone (especially FTR) has to hear Porcupine Tree immediately. Although Lightbulb Sun--one of their greatest albums--is inexplicably hard to find or sometimes entirely unavailable in the U.S., you can still get 1999\'s Stupid Dream CD for about $11. I\'d describe it as prog rock with an excellent sense of melody; it\'ll remind you of Pink Floyd, Nine Inch Nails, George Harrison (primarily in its use of slide guitar), and Radiohead. In fact, FTR and all the other Radiohead fans, they\'ve got a lyric that goes something like: \"you keep me alone in a room full of friends... you keep me listening to The Bends.\"

USE HEADPHONES!

Mother, do you think they\'ll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they\'ll like this song?
Mother, do you think they\'ll try to break my balls?
Ooooowaa , should I build a wall?

Mother, should I run for President?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mother, will they put me in the firing line?
Ooooowaa Is it just a waste of time?

Hush, my baby. Baby, don\'t you cry.
Momma\'s gonna make all of your nightmares come true.
Momma\'s gonna put all of her fears into you.
Momma\'s gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She won\'t let you fly, but she might let you sing.
Momma\'s gonna keep Baby cozy and warm.
Oooo Babe.
Oooo Babe.
Ooo Babe, of course Momma\'s gonna help build a wall.

Mother, do you think she\'s good enough,
For me?
Mother, do you think she\'s dangerous,
To me?
Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
Ooooowaa , will she break my heart?

Hush, my baby. Baby, don\'t you cry.
Momma\'s gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
Momma won\'t let anyone dirty get through.
Momma\'s gonna wait up until you get in.
Momma will always find out where you\'ve been.
Momma\'s gonna keep Baby healthy and clean.
Oooo Babe.
Oooo Babe.
Ooo Babe, you\'ll always be Baby to me.

Oh my God! A Porcupine Tree fan! I am a totall prog fan (since 1974, boy does that date me!) and PTree, although on the more commercial side of my tastes, are amazing! I\'ve seen them 4 times and they a great. I still like The Sky Moves Sideways the best, but you can\'t go wrong with any of their CD\'s.

Pain of Salvation is probably my favorite band right now. They are considered Prog-Metal, but unlike most Prog-Metal bands, they don\'t constantly show off their chops (like Dream Theater and Symphony X). Everything they play, no matter how technical, always serves the music.

Dude! I was replying to HB_88\'s post about Porcupine Tree. Like I don\'t know Pink Floyd\'s lyrics? I saw them 3 times, including The Wall tour at the Sports Arena in Los Angeles n 1980.

Honestly, I wish Porcupine Tree were more commercial--especially since their major label debut, In Absentia, sounds more than a little like Dream Theater. Good, but not their very best. I don\'t hate Dream Theater (although I haven\'t heard quite enough to have an informed opinion); I just like the Pink Floyd/ Beatles/ Radiohead sound much more.
