hey, fatdaddycool...Ten Years After has some great stuff. I especially like the discs Cricklewood Green and A Space in Time. Good recommendation for anyone into the rock/blues fusion.
I survived Thursday. Gambling, that is.
Took the points with Air Farce but also had a piece of the moneyline so that finish was kind of a drag. BC points and moneyline miraculously came in. Doing better in the NCAA than the NHL so maybe I should post. Mostly square picks for me there, though I did it doggie-style tonight.
...moving right along...
C
*CCR - Ramble Tamble (7:13)...these guys really don't have a single BAD tune, but this is probably my fave (along with Run Through the Jungle, Have You Ever Seen the Rain?, and a few others); good rocker with a solid instrumental stretch within; off the disc Cosmo's Factory
*Cream - Tales of Brave Ulysses (2:48)...these guys also produced nothing but great tunes; this track (a rather psychedelic rocker) and White Room would be my faves; the disc Disraeli Gears
is their best and contains both this track and Sunshine of Your Love, along with many other goodies
*Crosby,Stills,Nash & Young - Woodstock (3:56)...off the fabulous disc Deja Vu, this track was actually written by Joni Mitchell; classic rock as are all 3 I've listed so far; other fave CSN&Y tunes include Carry On, Almost Cut My Hair, Ohio and Suite Judy Blue Eyes
*Cactus - Guiltless Glider (8:37)...this early 70's supergroup put out a couple of fabulous albums before going their seperate ways; heavy blues akin to Led Zeppelin and Cream; the whole disc (Restrictions) and their self-titled disc are both worth persuing
Cressida - Let Them Come When They Will (11:44)...a little more psychedelic than LZ or Cactus, this early 70's group is more of the blues/rock fusion that I really dig; tough find but their self-titled disc and the disc Asylum are both, so I've read, quite sought after by collectors
*Cry of Love - Peace Pipe (4:03)...had to include at least something a little more recent; from the 1993 disc Brother, which is the only one that they released with lead singer Kelly Holland--another rocker that was taken from us too early; sounds a little like Bad Company or Aerosmith; guitarist Audley Freed also played with the Black Crowes; this track and Bad Thing apparently got some radio play
instrumental:
Eric Clapton - Classical Gas (2:36)...Eric really shows off his talent with the acoustical on this track; for a more psychedelic instrumental by Clapton, check out Will Gaines (3:48) off the disc Rush
---MY CLAPTON COLLECTION IS FAR FROM COMPLETE...IN PARTICULAR, I'D LOVE TO SEE SOME INSTRUMENTAL PICKS IF ANYBODY CAN HELP OUT THERE...MENTION REALLY ANY (preferably older) SOLO STUFF THAT YOU DIG AND I WILL DO SOME DIGGING MYSELF
*Buckethead - Soothsayer (9:04)...off the 2006 disc Crime Slunk Scene, this piece is a cool, fairly progressive rocker that contains several mood shifts; a little more appealing than some of his other tracks, a lot of which use electronic drumming instead of the standard kind (which I prefer); not a bad place to start for Buckethead if you can't find the mind-blowing Mrs. Beasley
D's are going to be a lot of fun tomorrow. Going to be hard to pick just 6+1.
If things work out right then I'll be getting restocked tomorrow, meaning that I might be ready to get a good downloading session going. Will be the calm before the storm, gambling-wise, so I'm going to see if I can't score me up some of these recommendations.
Thanks again and KEEP 'EM COMIN'!
