What are you listening to?

I'm not good with genres... would you consider this funk?

Yes, that is Funk but the top side of it leading to Popular Soul and Popular R&B.

 

 

Edited to add: and Popular R&B

Nice music but I didn't have any of those experiences you spoke of.

 

Yeah I totally exagerated, I just wanted to make a commentary. Don't even like that music anymore.

 

But this, on the other hand, is trully excellent:

Hehehe. I can deal with the first one better than I can this second one. Too long hair for me. It would drive me up the wall.

 

Right now I am listening to (actually, I have been editing) old Blues from the 1930's and 1940's.

I haven't listened to those guys for a long time. Actually, I don't even have their LPs that I have digitized yet. I've still got more work to do.

That's the entire album.

 

I have it.

 

I also have their very first album. They don't sound much like the "real" Jethro Tull though. They were still developing their own thing.

That reminds me of being surprised by some of Willie Nelson's early work...

He sounded nothing like the artist I know, he didn't look like him either.

Back then, before coming into himself, he was parroting the 30's and 40's sound and had the clean cut, short republican hair cut...

 

All the really influential artists, eventually find their unique voice, or they don't become great, they have their dance and fade away.

Yeah, Willie is another one. Strange career start for him. The first time I heard him sing (mid-1950s) he had a nasal condition that caused me to think that he was of French culture, perhaps Cajun.

 

His start failed because for whatever the reason Grand Ole Opery ignored him and he couldn't get a recording contract. He then cut a few Gospel albums so he would have enough money to buy food and a place to flop.

 

And then he developed his own style somewhere in the early 1960s that got him a recording contract and the beginning of his career.

 

 

Oh, and BTW, I am listening to Traditional Cajun music this morning.

That was an unexpected sound. Something out of the late 1960s but most of the band members were still wearing diapers during the late 1960s.

 

A nice sound, actually.

Our high school symphony played that. That piece was a really difficult POS to orchestrate :wacko: But especially fun to play!

 

Mambo!

"NOTHIN' YOU CAN DO ABOUT I" - lyrics by Manhattan Transfer (oh yes, those where the happy 80´s)

 

It has begun

Nothin' in the world can stop it now.

It's in control,

We might as well just try to stop the wind.

Give up!

Give in!

You lose!

Love will always win.

Start surrendering:

Stop resisting!

 

Nothin' you can do about it

It's too strong to be denied

Nothin' you can do about it,

Relax enjoy the ride.

 

Destiny!

We are what fate intended us to be.

Can't you see?

We're all a part of some eternal plan

So give up!

Give in!

You lose!

Love will always win.

Start surrendering, oh!

Stop resisting!

 

Nothin' you can do about it

It's too strong to be denied

Nothin' you can do about it,

Relax enjoy the ride.

 

Don't you try to understand it.

Leave it as a mystery.

It's bigger than the both of us,

We're each other's history!
