Tommi Aura's cover of "Tainted Love" has been this month's obsession.

Lucius - Old Tape

And I just saw Ginger Root open for Japanese Breakfast, and OH MY GWAD! I'd never heard of them, and they were probably the most exciting openers I've ever seen. Check out their album Shinbangumi

Total surprise for me that I love Jelly Roll's "Liar"... not my usual vibe at all, but it's really sticking with me.

Seems like, indeed 😊 Maybe less scary and groovier, thanks to its good and funky vives. Really perfect to start the day, or to end it.

Unfortunately, I only know the sunglasses' scene from "They Live". Never seen the entire film. But maybe one day, who knows... 😉 😎

The new album from Young Gun Silver Fox, 'Pleasure'. Released May 2nd. If I had to pick one song I'd be screwed. You can't go wrong with the first 3: "Stevie and Sly", "Born To Dream", "Late Night Last Train"

It sounds like YGSF have lots of fans in the world 🙂 I also love "Stevie & Sly", I wrote here about this song before seeing your comment.

Not heard the whole record yet, but it won’t be long...

This is a great song! I’m also blown away by Standing on the Fault Line. Harmonies at end of the track left me speechless.

That is a good one, too. I haven’t listened to the entire album yet. It’s on my list. I heard that one song on my favorite radio station l, WWOZ out of New Orleans. They have a new music show on Sunday nights.

Last night I saw a startling performance by Carolina Eyck and The Australian Chamber Orchestra - Carolina has been playing the THEREMIN since she was 7 years old and is one of the world's most accomplished performers on this astounding instrument. I'm only now beginning to discover more of her work...

As an introduction I recommend listening to this solo version of 'The Ecstasy of Gold', Ennio Morricone's climactic piece from 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly'.

(Last night's full rendition had me in tears!)

Electra - Dio

Somehow missed this song by Dio only to discover it now. Still, never to late!

I'm mostly old school but it's a tie between Broken Man by St Vincent or Anthem by YONAKA for me

Both have a modern vibrancy from the current generation and rocked me.
