I remember the day he died. His death seems to be clouded in mystery. His family wouldn't divulge the details, although (I'm not trying to be funny here) considering his condition at the time, I guess suicide can be ruled out.Originally Posted by R_of_G
I have a 3 CD boxset of his work from The Impressions days up to the last album before his accident.

Yeah, it was an odd story for sure.Originally Posted by Suhnton
I do treasure his music from The Impressions through to his solo stuff. The guy was the epitome of soul.

Awesome. I love Explosions In the Sky, and that album in particular is quite good. They definitely make me think about guitar in a different way.Originally Posted by Ro3b

The second of two great albums from these guys.
I just pre-ordered their upcoming EP due out on the 23rd.

The Band

If there was a tighter live band than this, I haven't heard them.

Listening to "Sun is Coming," by Matt Wilson (a solo track from the front man of long-defunct Minneapolis band "Trip Shakespeare.") It's got a very cool acoustic guitar riff that I'm digging.

I think this one's been mentioned here before, but here it is anyway:
Played it about 10 times since I got it last week. New addition to my list of favourite albums.
Been listening to this one a lot as well:

The reissue of Chomp by Pylon, who were simply one of the greatest bands that ever existed, was released this past weekend. It's in heavy rotation and will be for quite some time, I think.

T-Rex Electric warrior... some minutes before that i was on the White Stripes hour.
For some time now, this guys are constantly on my Fake-pod (Creative Zen player):
Elvis
Oasis
Bob Dylan
The White Stripes
Gretsch Corvette
Parker P-38
Yamaha APX500
Vox Pathfinder 15R
Vox Tonelab ST
Blackheart LG
... That's it.
A couple of excellent choices there Tig, particularly Sketches of Spain, one of the most beautiful albums ever recorded of any kind of music.
I am still in a very Miles-heavy rotation myself (which happens when I play a lot).
