OT: ABC's of Music

Anthony Phillips -- Um and Aargh . Ant Phillips was a founding member of Genesis. He left after, I think, the second album. His solo albums were almost all instrumental and largely solo (no guest/studio musicians). This is from one with vocals and other musicians. The whole album is fantastic; this is the first cut and a great way to start an album.

 
J. J. Quantz -- Flute Concerto in E Minor. Quantz was an instructor of Frederick the Great and a buddy of CPE Bach. He wrote the classic book on baroque/rococo flute playing.

 
Riki Lee Jones - the exquisite Traces of the Western Slopes:

Fleetwood Mac - Hypnotized



Still pissed that Bob Welch was the only significant member of Fleetwood Mac not to be inducted into the R&R HoF. It makes the HoF that much less respectable and significant.
 
Richie Havens - Handsome Johnny
This seems timely as it was 50 years ago tomorrow that Richie Havens went on stage as the opening act at Woodstock.


I saw a show in probably the mid-late 90's during a PBS beg-a-thon -- Possibly 25th anniversary of Woodstock? It had Richie Havens, Joni Mitchell, a couple others. Richie Havens was introduced by Louis Gossett, Jr. Lou was talking about how he was a starving actor in New York and was tight with Richie Havens. Lou was about ready to call it quits and go back home when he opened an envelope from a music publishing company. It was a royalty check from this song, which he co-wrote, and allowed him to keep acting till he made it.

I read once that Mick Fleetwood was behind it....very irritating though, a snub of this magnitude. Bob Welch was a great, great, contributor to Fleetwood mac.
 
I keep missing this when F comes around, so I'll use it for S. I think that's where we are at.

 
Orange Crush - R.E.M.


Great version. Love that song.

A few years ago there was a local cover band doing 80/90's music called "Orange Crush". They were playing one night and were taking requests, soooo I requested "Orange Crush".

"Oh, we don't really know that one."
