Great Unknown Music
Sorry but I have a relatively new iPod and so I'm interested in music right now. Name a song (and the band/artist that performs it) that is not widely known but is really good.
Again, I'll start. Tremolo, Evil Twin. |
Don't pay the Ferry Man by Chris DeBerg
also gotta add.... Run Runaway by Slade |
"Jockey full of Bourbon" & "Tango 'til They're Sore" by Tom Waits
Also there's quite a few songs off his album "Real Gone" that I enjoyed. --Aric |
Homocide - 999 (might be too punk for you)
Nazi Punks Fuck off - Dead Kennedys Every time I eat Vegetables, it makes me think of you - Ramones The KKK took my Baby Away - Ramones 21 Guitar Salute - Dropkick Murphys anything you can find by Asleep at the Wheel (yes, I'm following punk with country) best album IMHO, Collision Course. That's enough oddity for this morning:munchin |
song
"We're Leaving" - Devotchka
|
I don't know what you consider "unknown."
Eels - Mr. E's Beautiful Blues |
Don't know about how unknown they are, but here's a few I get stuck in my head:
If you're in an aggressive type mood (and don't mind "Cookie Monster" vocals): "Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste" - Norma Jean "Through Struggle" - As I Lay Dying "Walk" - Pantera (known, but a classic) "Burn" - Throwdown "Pillars of Eternity" - Down If you're in a more mellow mood: "Wiser Time" - The Black Crowes "Change" - Blind Melon "Echoes" - Pink Floyd (16 minutes and 30 seconds of sit back and relax) "Say Goodbye" - Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds If you're in a spiritual mood: "King of Glory" - Third Day "Jesus" - Rich Mullins "Mothership" - Glisten How's that for "one end of the spectrum to the other"?

What! No big band sounds??????

Jim-
Just because I can..... Best of Ellington - all vocals by Rosemary Clooney - any tune on it Anything by Nina Simone Coltraine ('nuff said) Parker Muddy Waters (blues, but killer) Robert Johnson Les Paul Willie Nelson's jazz Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys (yup, big band swing and country in one place) Count Basie I hope this is a 40 Gb iPod - you're gonna need it RL [OPSEC, dude, OPSEC!!!] |
Warrior's Code, Dropkick Murphy's
Shipping Up to Boston, Dropkick Murphy's The Foggy Dew, The Chieftans and Sinead O'Connor Big Band Anything Glenn Miller |
Anything by Government Mule

+1
Warren Haynes is outstanding. |
Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick and Aqualung (whole album) - one song off Aqualung would have to be Hymn 43 or Locomotive Breath
Epic - Faith No More |

Juan Trip- Dirty Party
Ray LaMontagne - Barfly Richard Buckner-Ariel Ramirez zz Top- Mescalero Bellrays- Change The World The Black Keys- Thick Freakness Constantines- Lizavetta Dengue Fever - Sui Bong Hem- We'll Meet Along the Way Marc Ribot y Los Cubanos Postizos- Aurora en Pekin Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds- Get Ready For Love Brad Mehldau- Exit Music For a Film |
"Belle Starr" by Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris. I don't know how to categorize the music, but the two voices sound great together. This song is my favorite on a pretty good album, All the Roadrunning.
"Two Shots of Happy, One Shot of Sad" by Matt Dusk. Bono originally wrote this song for Frank Sinatra. It was the theme song for the short-lived reality show, "The Casino," which also featured Dusk. Dusk is a classically-trained Canadian singer turned crooner. Michael Bublé is a bigger star, but I like Dusk more - he has more of an edge to his voice and music. Dusk's debut album, Two Shots, is pretty good. Track 6, "Don't Go Looking," was recorded with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and is a great song. |
Anything by The Mad Capsule Markets.

Antonio Salieri: Concerto for Flute and Oboe

Damn, RL - your theme song - Warren Zevon - Lawyers , Guns and Money - with an encore of Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner and Veracruz.

Sunset Rubdown - They took a vote and said No. (This song always reminds me of my Iraq experience, and anyone who has been there will know why.)
I'd also recommend the first 2 Slowdive albums (Just for a Day, and Soulvaki), and I cant isolate it to one song, because, their best listened to as whole albums. regards, George |

Loretta Lynn - The entire Van Lear Rose disc, particularly Portland, Oregon It's a collaboration with a guy Jack White, from White Stripes - very gritty marriage of garage band and honky tonk. The woman rocks! I hope I'm like her when I hit my 70's. This led me to exploring White Stripes' work. I'd recommend Blue Orchid, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground, and their cover of Jolene. Yo Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, Mark O'Connor - Appalachia Waltz disc LL |
Bach, Toccatta and Fugue - "the Rollerball theme" this one will test your speakers.

To mellow back out, from the really obscure category, Ukrainian pop star (and soloist of the Ukrainian Army chorus) Tina Karol' singing Ноченька ("Sweet Night") - video (content warning: although no naughty bits are shown, she is pretty much naked throughout this video). |
