Astronomy by Blue Oyster Cult. Specifically the live version on 'Some Enchanted Evening' with the extended guitar solo. Fantastic.

Great band !

 

IMO the greatest American rock band ever 1022.gif

Testament - True American Hate

Pink Floyd - Echoes.

 

By no means a new discovery; I've been listening to if for 20 years. But I've recently reconnected with it. Of all things, you know what I've been most impressed by on recent listens? Waters's bass part. He's typically dismissed as a hack, and to be sure, I've lodged that accusation a few times myself. But his basswork on Echoes is so fluid, smooth, and warm--just perfect for the song.

Thorn In My Pride - The Black Crowes

Right on! When push comes to shove that might be my favorite Crowes tune. I am an absolute diehard, obsessive BC fan. I assumed I was the only member of the forum who would identify as such.

And I was not familiar with this Donovan tune, but I REALLY like it (listening now)! I might have to dig deeper into his catalog, this is cool...

His playing may not be considered great or complicated or whatever but he had a natural feel and instinct that was a key element of the unique Pink Floyd sound and magic, which is even more evident in the live recordings I've heard from around then. He certainly had an individual style of his own that fit the music like a glove.

 

Oh yes and edited to add Queens of the Stone Age - In the Fade
