[NEforceUConn]

No idea where this wonderful pre season went, but anyway. If you don’t like this song you’re probably 6 feet below ground.

I like all the classics but I like the UConn dedication track.

Maybe the greatest theme song in music history. RIP Richard Roundtree.

 

[Scud49]

I can't overlook these guys - the Airplane. Back when it was all about the music.

Grace and Marty's interweaving vocals are something:

 

[Scud49]

Oh yeah, these guys, they carved out a bit of a niche for themselves in music history.

Okay, I've resisted posting again to this thread, but I can't resist. For some time I've been fascinated and in love with the long rock song suites. These take different forms; the best known is probably Paul's series of songs on the second side of Abbey Road. My favorite till a year or so ago was Scheherazade by Renaissance. (A close second was In Held Twas In I by Procol Harum.)

 

[Bigboote]

These have been supplanted in the not-too-distant past by a three-song series by Epica. These are called "Kingdom of Heaven," and they appear on three different albums over, I think 13-14 years. Each song stands on its own, but the three together are just so powerful -- the series is about the afterlife, but also about the intersection between physics and spirituality. "Quantum physics leads us to Answers to the great taboo"

 

[Scud49]

Rolling Stones - Moonlight Mile:

 

[Scud49]

Pink Floyd's amazing song "Us and Them":

 

[YoDore]

Last one for today. Seven Spires are an American band who met as students at the Berklee College of Music. Their vocalist/keys player/composer/lyricist is my favorite young singer out there. I've never heard a voice like hers.

Bigboote, you often seem to come up with bands/singers/acts that are new to me, and I consider myself to be fairly knowledgable about music. I have to say I never fail to enjoy your selections. Well done.

 

[YoDore]

Bigboote: here's another tour de force from Berklee College. Posted before, but worth a listen if you missed it.

I remember this from the last time it was posted, and I fell in love with this group. Thanks for posting it again.
