[awg]

more for the guitarists.

The late great Stevie Ray Vaughan

Live at "el macumbo"....described as one of the greatest live concerts ever.

The tone SRV gets out of his simple set-up is indescribable.

To keep the guitar stuff together.

Tommy Emmanuel...the best there is IMO

An Aussie, who plays Oz made Maton guitars, what a great ambassador for them he is.

Natural talent...I dont care if you practice 10,000 hours x 10, you will never be as good as him.

take your pick

Guitar boogie, Over the rainbow, Imagine

Oh the stuff of SRV. Have two DVD's associated with SRV. "Live from Austin Texas" which is a retrospective of his 1983 and 1989 concerts as well as "A tribute to SRV" with Eric Clapton, Bonnie Rait, Jimmy Vaughan (SRV's brother who is no slouch) BB King, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, Dr John, Art Neville and members of Double Trouble. Total bliss.

And the DVD of Tommy at the Ballarat Theatre is worthwhile buying.

Also look out for stuff by Fiona Byrne. Great Australian guitarist/vocalist based in the US. Hard to get her albums as the Oz distributor doesn't seem all that interested. She does play at a number of Oz gigs - Thredbo and stuff like that. Don't miss a chance if she is in your neck of the woods.

Aaah good ole blues -- love it : )

http://www.fionaboyes.com/Excellent choices there Judd..totally agree about SRV.

Just a wee correction on Fiona's name there,in case anyone is googling for her website..it's Boyes. I remember her days with the all girl combo,the Mojos.Fantastic stuff.

I am listening to songs from the 80's or earlier thanks to the woman I sit next to at work. She has a radio that only picks up 2CA in Canberra and they just play old stuff.

Kinda makes me feel young again listing to the songs from when I was in my 20's.

Arrrrrrgh! What was I thinking? Thank you for the correction, Boyou, and apologies to Ms Boyes for stuffing up your surname.

Freddy King. And now you know from where SRV got some of his influences.

By the way, this is a mean, mean piece of work and arguably one of the best versions I have ever heard.

 

[trainspotter]

Jim Morrison - The Doors Album. "Light my Fire"

 

[Fishbulb]

I play sax in an improvised jazz thing here in Melbourne, so for me it's mostly guys like Coleman Hawkins, John Coltrane, some Ornette.....

But if it's called for, I will go spaz and listen to Ministry or some hip hop.

One of my favourite Aussie songs of all time - :

RIP George Burarrwanga

Two of the songs that I listen to while driving to play hockey, they start off slow and then start to thump along. Gets me in the mood to get out there and go hard
