Music that makes you feel good....

[mano]

Double Shot of My Baby's Love by the Swingin' Medallions was just on the radio and I couldn't help but smile.

 

[stereo.pete]

I just discovered this band called Punch Brothers. They are a cross between indie/blue grass, check them out and see if you like them.

http://www.punchbrothers.com/ In their media section you can watch some videos of them playing live.

 

[El Pescador]

Queens of the Stone Age.

 

[ecchef]

Not so! For classical feel good music, there's ANY Mozart Horn concerto, as long as it's a recording of Dennis Brain. Also:

Wagner--Introduction to the 3rd act of Lohengrin, Ride of the Valkyries (aka "Kill the Wabbit!")

Rossini's "Barber of Seville" (also well covered by Bugs Bunny)

Saint Saens "The Swan", esp. as played by Yo-yo Ma

Johan Strauss "Die Fledermaus" Overture

Nice selection, although I prefer "The Flying Dutchman". Rossini is always fun. How about Holst's "The Planets"? Or my favorite from first note to last, "The Magic Flute"!

Love the BB links!!! :doublethumbsup:

Astronautalis might just be the best damn musician ever born.

 

[dav]

Too many bands/artists to mention and depends on how I feel, but at the moment Symphonic Metal such as Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, Epica etc...

 

[Dave Martell]

[Taz575]

I gotta check out those bands Dav, lovin Nightwish! Picked up the new cd/dvd couple weeks ago!

 

[Lefty]

Jack Johnson, Donovan Frankenreiter, Jason Mraz and Marianna's Trench, but Stevie Ray Vaughn and Clapton never get turned off if they come on the radio.

 

[dav]

Taz if you liked the Nightwish album then you'll most likely enjoy the new Epica album a little heavier and more "gothic" but great none the less, Sonarta Arctica again a slightly different take on the genre but very melodic with some folk/metal influence. Lots of great bands coming from the Scandinavian country's at the moment.

[Still-edo]

Hair metal head here... Jamming to Skid Row, Warrant, and Whitesnake. Lots and lots of Whitesnake.

 

[Candlejack]

I used to be a big metal-head, but then i found some underground hiphop which i loved. I found more meaning in these texts, of the artists i like most. (But some i just like the sound of, even though their lyrics are meaningless)
Many of the ones i listen to could be called poetry with a beat in my opinion

BOC's "Fire of Unknown Origin" is an album I listen to regularly.

 

[Vertigo]

For you classy old-timers. Too much talent on one stage, including George Harrison's freaking clone and Prince doing unspeakable things to his guitar:

Gustavo Santaolalla doing what he does best:

Bonus track for you with some hair on your balls. Can't all be weeping guitars:

They don't make music like this anymore.
He was kind of weird in a really weird way, but entertaining.

Frank Zappa was a misunderstood and underrated musical genius, not to mention one fine guitarist.

The really frightening thing about this one is that I started playing it and suddenly hubby appeared in the room, singing along and playing air guitar...:guitarist:
