Judith, what happened to all the great singers? Current music sucks...or I was born too late.

Joe Cocker - Unchain My Heart live 2002

I'm too out of touch to know...Although I bet there are new ones out there, Rion...I think we need to find the ones that are in it for the love of music not the love of money. Sometimes even the most wonderful musicians have been corrupted when their record company gets ahold of them and they lose their freedom of expression.

I just put on "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" ....'unchain my heart' is not on it but you got me wanting to hear that voice:)

You have a point but...I kind of like being out of touch! Lol. I love the 60s & 70s! The golden age of music. At least in my book it is.

This is one of my favorite recordings of 2012.

John Luther Adams - Four Thousand Holes (2012) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbm8Mgmox1s

John Luther Adams - http://www.johnlutheradams.com/biography/index.html

I always liked a good blues album on hot summer afternoons in front of the fan...just finished outside...now for some Jimmy Reed:)
Vee Jay 2LP-1035 "Jimmy Reed at Carnegie Hall"(record A) and "The Best of Jimmy Reed" (record B)

edit to add..."Leadbelly Sings Ballads of Beautiful Women and Bad Men" Sutton SU 278 (not the best record label)
see if you can find 'Where did you sleep last night' by Leadbelly and then the Kurt Cobain version on Unplugged quite a few years back...really, really nice. Kinda like Eddie Vedder singing Dylan's 'Masters of War' for Bob Fest awhile back...it just gets better.

Sorry, running in and out. Here is...

The Jimmy Reed @ Carnegie Hall playlist on Youtube. Includes, I'm Mr. Luck, Baby What's Wrong, I Found Joy, Kind of Lonesome, Aw Shucks, Hush Your Mouth, & Tell Me You Love Me


Where Did You Sleep Last Night Nirvana Unplugged
