Deep Cuts Tunes

[Donoroto]

If you like energetic music, look up The Monks. A couple of US Army buddies stationed in Germany played in the 1960s. Very advanced for their time.

Pink Floyd - Free Four

That is such a cool, underrated album. Truly a hidden gem.

Listened to Eloy this morning - Whatever Spotify played. Cool stuff.

I recently watched this episode from The Professor of Rock on 99 Luftballons. I started watching his stuff recently. Tons of behind-the-scenes info.

The concept of that song is just awesome. O.k lets float a balloon over the wall and start a nuclear war
Speaking of that and the earlier Greg Lake post. "Nuclear Attack" is a wonderful on his solo album.

I always dug '39 by Queen for a great concept. A folksy song about the relativistic effects of space travel. The line where it hits the narrator what's going on...gets me every time

My college aged daughter is a Queen fan, into the big arena hits and Freddie Mercury bombast. She can’t understand why I don’t like those songs and I tell her it’s mostly because I’ve heard them all at least a gajillion times and I’m just tired of them. One night she asked me, “Don’t you like any Queen songs?” and I replied that indeed I do, exactly one. I played her ‘39 and she couldn’t believe that that was Queen. She loved it too.

I mean, how could you not be drawn in by the bombast? But the guy was a crazy talented singer/songwriter, so thankfully there's a lot of steak under all the sizzle

does a slow blues number from ZZ Top - Duguello album 1979 qualify as a deep cut?

I was watching a documentary on them on AXS some time back. After watching it, I went back and listened to some of their 70s albums. They are great. I got really burnt out on some of the 80s songs because any of the horrible, Cox rock radio stations around here would play the same 3 or 4 about 50 times a day.

ya, they kinda went pop a bit with the eliminator album, it was good and fun, but not true to their bluesy origins in my opinion

I was almost going to call it a night, well until Spotify decided to play my beloved "Grendel" by Marillion. So, I guess I am drinking another beer.

 

[Sandy Feet]

Oh, shit, and then it decided to play some Joy Division. I guess I am not done yet.

 

[Sandy Feet]

And Ultravox? Im screwed lol.

[Sandy Feet]

That was for the Depeche Mode fans, and plus the fact that it almost brought me to tears today comparing it to and making it work for the crap I am going through.
