Now I have to get back to my R&B roots, lol.. The Commodores and Lionel Ritchie definitely are an underrated band.. Lionel is one of the great songwriters of all time..I love both of these songs, Easy being my favorite...

Saw Lionel Ritchie back in about 84 in Charleston. I was more in to classic rock type music at the time and my wife wanted to go. It was a great concert and I really enjoyed it. Very talented guy.

This collab/project of Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden) and Ritchie Kotzen is fantastic. Just released a few months ago and not many folks no about it. It's old school straight rock with a little 70s vibe. Both share lead vocal and lead guitar roles as well as writing. There mutual roles and contributions and how they deliver their lines and leads remind me of DBII and Charlie Sexton from Arc Angels one and only album. The entire album is fantastic from start to finish.

Another band I recently got into is Dead Daisies with their latest album Holy Ground. Been a long time fan of NC native guitarist Doug Aldrich. They recently brought in legendary singer/bassist Glenn Hughes and took the band to the next level. Like my last post, this album is fantastic from start to finish. It's really rare that I find a complete album so good anymore, or for many decades. Every song kicks butt and then the last song "Far Away" is a refreshing change at a slower pace with symphonic and atmospheric elements. It's really a departure for Hughes as far as singing style and that's what makes it so good. Here's a sampling below of some of the songs.

Would love for this type of music to make a comeback. People with actual talent on instruments and can sing without computers.

The Ohio Players were a bad ass group.. I agree, I miss the super groups..I worry about there being any groups 10-15 years from now..

He left Fleetwood Mac and Mick Fleetwood found a guitar player and singer named Buckingham and Nicks to replace him, Nicks was brought along only because Buckingham, the guitarist he needed, wouldn't join if his GF wasn't invited to join too!

I'm like you, I can handle just about anything except any vulgar music...

I've have to do a good bit of driving out in the country with my job and I have a subscription to Sirius XM in my car, and I love it, I can listen to just about any kind of radio or music that I want anytime. I'd go crazy listening to top 40 radio, I just can't relate to it anymore.

Right now channel 54 on Sirius is ABBA 24/7 for a limited time, because ABBA has an album out for the first time in about 40 years. I've found that people either love ABBA or hate them, I grew up with them and I like them, and its nostalgia for me to hear this. I think that they along with the Platters and some of the old doo-wop bands are the best vocal groups ever to record. Anyhow they are playing tracks from this new album and from what I have heard it is really excellent, as good as anything that they put out in the 70s/early 80s, but I doubt that any of it gets any airplay. Nonetheless it is a nice thing to hear music from musicians that made it because they had good songs and talent, it seems that is the exception rather than the rule anymore.

?Honey Don?t? was the B side of that record, which was also recorded later by The Beatles.

It?s funny to hear Red Foley introduce Carl and trying to describe his music back in those days.
