Anyone into Tori Amos might take Emma Ruth Rundle out for a spin. I hear a lot of Amos in Rundle's music.

 

[Spidernova]

Got my ticket to see these guys tomorrow, going to be an awesome show. Bits of sludge, doom, and thrash metal.

Interesting band which I properly miss for not seeing them live on stage which is odd as I don't particularly like their music but the performances are excellent.

Katzenjammer - Live in Hamburg

Chrom - Loneliness

"Walk Away Renee" (1966) by The Left Banke is a classic of the 'flower power' generation. It was written by the band's keyboardist, who had become infatuated with the bassist's girlfriend. The composition was partly inspired by one of the seminal songs of the era, "California Dreamin'" by The Mamas and the Papas, released just a few months before. While strongly associated with the counter-culture of the 1960s, neither song is psychedelia. Rather, they're part of a short-lived niche genre called "baroque pop", blending classical instruments such as strings and flutes into folky, soft-rock. Y'know, I've been listening to this song off-and-on for decades, and I've only just noticed the band spells its name with an 'e.'

The real Renee Fladen, c. 1966? Today, age 75, she's the vocal coach for Bay Area medieval music group The Sherwood Consort.

And for comparison's sake, the aforementioned "California Dreamin'" (1965)

Felt like a little classic rock this afternoon.

"Separate Ways" (1983) by Journey

"Gimme Shelter" (1969) by The Rolling Stones

 

[Moff Jerjerrod]

Well, why can't we have a bit of classic rock and classic car mixed mit moderne technologie? Unkreatief!!

Angra - Stand Away

 

[Grendeldef]

I was looking for who remembers what but ran into this

Stevie Nicks - Landslide

and then remembered another landslide from the memory lane

Transvision Vamp - Landslide of Love

so I started browsing oldies & goldies - 80s was great

Classix Nouveaux - Never Again

and even some Finns made decent stuff though the vocalist is British and this was made after ~30y hiatus. Thinking now of all the (c)rap we could've avoided if they'd continued making music during those years. There're very few simpler & better tunes than this.

Paul Oxley's Unit - The Prisoner

 

[Kyriakos]

 

[Kaitzilla]

Tate McRae - Greedy (Acoustic Version)

I think I like this less confident sounding version of this pop song.
