I just can't seem to get bored of listening to G n R's Appetite for Destruction. An absoulutely timeless album as far as I'm concerned.
Ausum guitar work and schaweet guitar tones all round.
This will be in the player for a while still.

Doing work and listening to The Gaslight Anthem. Give them a whirl if you like Bruce Springsteen's style of rock.

Robert Plant and Alison Krauss Raising Sand
It's taken me a while to get into this one, but I am enjoying it very much at present. Marc Ribot plays well and to great effect. I could have done with more instrumental work from Alison Krauss (she's a very fine fiddler) but when she does play the part has real authority.
The unlikely combination of voices works well IMO.
Plant seems to be on an Americana trip of late. His forthcoming album has Darrell Scott and Buddy Miller in the band. I have it on order.
Oh... great thing of me forgot with relevance to a recent discussion here. They do a fab rendition of a Townes van Zandt song - "Nothin'".

Listening to Mr Miles Davis doing his thing..... 8)

The soundtrack to Into the Wild - Eddie Vedder. Loved the movie and the soundtrack did it justice, so I jumped when I saw this in the musica sale-bin. Bit of a letdown though. In the less than ten minutes it takes me to drive home, I listened to the first 6 songs. All of them only about a minute long. There's 11 songs in total, so I'm hoping the other 5 have a bit more meat to them.

I bought this a while ago. Really wanted to like it, but it just doesn't seem to move me ☹

Listening to myself sing guide vocals on 6 tracks that I'm trying to lay down.
After all these years, nothing sounds quite as foreign to my ear as my own voice. Crazy hey? :?

LOL!
I'm kind of used to the rest of the world not being on my wavelength.
When we had pass-out parade in the army my mummy told me I was the only one in step.

listening to the person in the office next to mine who's in turn listening to Celine Dion totally destroy "you shook me all night long" and she has the nerve to sing along.

Animals As Leaders.
Tosin Abisi is a pretty impressive guitarist. 8-string too, woohoo. My only criticism would be the music seems circular, songs swirl around and around and eventually come to an end, no real sense of hook or progression.
Anyway. Anyone else here listen to them? Anyone??

Richard Thompson Dream Attic
His very latest. Just arrived today (the day after US release, so Amazon did a good job here).
An interesting concept. He has a bunch of new songs, but he doesn't take them into the studio. He makes demos, sends them to the guys in his band, then takes them on the road for about a dozen dates, records all the gigs and bingo! There's the new album.
I ordered the deluxe edition, with the acoustic demos on a seperate disc which I will get around to at some point.
First impressions are that there's been quite a lot of care taken on the recording, Thompson's guitar playing is still in very good shape, and the band stretches out more than they would do in the studio (fair enough, it was recorded in front of an audience) but are also very tight. It's an interesting trade off between studio sheen and live spark.

Nile - Those Whom The Gods Detest. Man the new album is awesome. I also got the new Cannibal Corpse just for the heck of it, never listened to them before. But every time I put it on I think 'why am I listening to this when I can listen to Nile some more?'
lindsmuse
My thoughts exactly!
Jericho
Jimi Hendrix - An Illustrated Experience
Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
Excellent stuff...
dee
Groove Armada...
Seeing as I am currently without a (working) electric guitar, I figured I might as well listen to a band that has none as well ?

Lee Ritenour
A jumble of stuff, the strange thing is that I get a lot more work done listening to Lee.
Going through some of the earlier 'Fourplay' stuff, I love his tone!
This afternoon I am going to go the metal route again, enjoyed the bit of In Flames I heard on Tuks FM, so will be exploring.
