This room brought back memories of dance halls of an other era. The Rug Factory, Serenity Hill, Presumpscot Grange and Frye Hall were all regular venues that pulled me in for one reason or another. Some for the good and a couple for the... well, let's leave it at that.
The last couple weeks here's my playlist: Lou Reed, Talking Heads, Grateful Dead, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Rosanne Cash, Steely Dan, Classical, Lucinda Williams, Queen, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beck, Beatles, Bob Marley, Radiohead, The Four Seasons, Springsteen, Brad Paisley, Buckwheat Zydeco, Jimmy Cliff, British Invasion music, Steve Miller Band, Dave Clark Five, Hall and Oats, Dropkick Murphys, Dwight Yoakum, Saw Doctors, Moody Blues, Cher, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Pretenders, Four Tops, Warren Zevon, Dylan, Oscar Peterson, Patsy Cline, Miles Davis, Chris Isaak, Dire Straits, Dusty Springfield, Dean Martin, Clapton, Allman Brothers, BB King, Van Morrison, Stones, Kinks and a few more.
As you can see, my musical tastes run all over the place.
Music plays in my world.
Who have I left out that needs to be on my rotation?
Handel, Mozart, Vivaldi, to mention only a few. ;-)
ReplyDeleteIsn't Revrunner funny? :))
ReplyDeleteI'd throw a little Sting in there too!
ReplyDeletechicago?
ReplyDeleteI always like a bit of Merle Haggard thrown in! And where are the Kinks?
ReplyDeleteHow did I forget them? I'll add Ray Davies and the boys now. Long Live the KINKS!
DeleteHow about The Wailin' Jennys? Blood, Sweat and Tears. Phil Collins. Ray Charles. Chet Atkins. (Please, stop me before I get obsessive and design a playlist for you!)
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, yes! I'll take early B,S&T. Thanks
DeleteQuite an eclectic playlist!
ReplyDeleteLet's see... Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, U2, Great Big Sea, Beethoven, Emilie Claire Barlow, Jane Monheit....
U2 for sure. It's the Irish in me. Ellington is in rotation but not in the last few weeks.
DeleteYou've got to squeeze Don McLean's American Pie in there. And Harry Chapin. And Leonard Cohen's Suzanne and Hallelujah, even if you want to use K. D. Lang's cover for Hallelujah. And Jack Johnson. And Adele?
ReplyDeleteLove Cohen.
DeleteI think you have covered quite a bit of ground. I take it you are an affectionado of music! -- barbara

ReplyDeleteShe's on my rotation too.
DeleteI might throw in a little Emmylou Harris or K.D Lang.
ReplyDeleteLike her a lot.
DeleteI still am holding on to many records from that list! How about Chubby Checkers, the Four Freshman, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez,??and I could go on and on . . .
