Mazzy Star is great. Nice choice.

I'm listening to the Pixies -- "Where is my Mind?"

Pixies is one of my favorite bands, Surfer Rosa and Doolittle are masterpieces.

Mazzy Star and Hope Sandoval are new to me. :thumbs-UP:


My latest find is vocalist Julieta Venegas and the group La Sonora Santanera: La Sonora Santanera - El Ladrón ft. Julieta Venegas

La Sonora Santanera is a tight excellent Mexican group that features a variety of vocalists. Below are some samples.

La Sonora Santanera featuring Charlie Zaa (Carlos Alberto Sánchez) and Yuri (Yuridia Valenzuela Canseco): La Sonora Santanera - La Pollera Colorá

La Sonora Santanera featuring Roco: La Sonora Santanera - La Boa ft. Roco

La Sonora Santanera featuring Diego Moran: La Sonora Santanera - El Muñeco de la Ciudad ft. Diego Moran

La Sonora Santanera featuring María León: La Sonora Santanera - Mi Caprichito ft. María León

Female singers...

Robert Plant called her "the best female voice ever to come out of England" and I would agree...

Thanks George,
Remember her from her Fairport Convention days, I'd completely forgotten about her!
I think I actually still have a record of her in my collection.
Been listening to her (again) since I found your post, about 3 hours ago. Fabulous indeed.

I really like this song too much :banana:

Every generation is going to say the current state of music is horrible...I think that is basically a human requirement.

Yeah, that sounds about right, at least to a degree. I hated 80s altogether, not just the music. On the other hand, 90s brought a lot of stuff that I did like. Go figure.

Didn't like the 80s....but liked the 90s? That's not something I hear everyday. But interesting nonetheless.

I'm a generation behind mostly in my taste....but for me anything from about '78-'92 excluding most ballads are good by me. Some stuff in the later 90s is fine too... but 2004-2006 is the REAL END of the road.

Heh...I can't tell you how many people went through my LP collection back in the day and ended up shaking their heads. My taste in music is pretty widespread

I love Bach, am a *huge* Beatles fan but it was Alice In Chains that brought me back from the dead in the early 90s...

Yes, generational preferences almost always have some impact on one's taste. However, there is stuff that is timeless...like this:

I'll listen to that a bit later and respond back...probably should fire up the Altec Speakers if you want me to play it loudly.....not sure if my T450 would do it justice even with Dolby Advanced Audio on.

ok....ok....Bach, Beatles, and Alice in the Chains?!? :lol: :lol: :lol:
That....that is just something from out of this world. I guess we all have a little strangeness in us all...am I right? I never in a million years would hear those three names together...well mostly the third one with the other two.
That just made my day . :mrgreen:

So let me guess... you like Laurel and Hardy...Monty Python...and South Park :lol:
