I know this might sound right out there, but with the upcoming holiday season around the corner, i put on some random Christmas tunes through the Sonos system of our ripped cd collection.
On came the Boney M Christmas album which included a cover of Bob Marley.
Odd for Christmas, but hey, it's Boney M!!

There's nothing like hearing a whole new and decent version of Christmas music.

Mark, c'mon, his name is Zappa and it's 2015! Yeah, it is fun to take in all the sounds happening all over the place. He was smart enough NOT to also be the engineer, nor did he do the mastering.

Just to add, the new remaster of Fleetwood Mac's "Tusk" isn't awesome , but it IS an improvement. It wasn't the 25 million seller that "Rumors" was, but it's a more sophisticated record, where everyone can stretch with even more confidence.
The high school marching band on the title track was and will always be uber cool. I also don't recall the original having 20 tracks.

I saw them in a dive when they still had Peter Green and they were strictly a blues band. "Rattlesnake Shake" was worth the price of admission.

Was watching John Wick the other night and one of the songs playing caught my attention. The girlfriend used her phone app and the artist is Kaleida. The song is Think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkhSZyYmpO4

Looks like they have an EP out with only six songs, but no CD yet, and I do not buy songs on Itunes. Not real sure what this genre is. I like their music though. It's kinda soothing.

Fleet Foxes are kinda old news now. I think they are done now actually. But their music is new-ish to me. Here is a great one I'd like to share. I dont know what to call it but uplifting new wave folk music. smile Digging them.

Yeah, I need to put it back into my rotation. Great stuff. In related news, I bought Classics on vinyl for a friend, and she said she liked it. I just watched the movie, Coffee Town, the other day, and it opens with a Ratatat song.

I'm on a Neko Case / New Pornographers kick lately. I highly recommend getting lost in the awesomeness.

Emmy the Great - Second Love

So her new album is pretty good. I'll have to give it a few more listens to see which songs stick to me the most, but I'm happy with the advancement of her sound.

Here's one of my favorite tracks. This is the version from the S EP. I'm not sure if it was changed for the album or not without doing a direct comparison, but it's close enough that this is a fair representation.
