Have alook at this - acoustic version of a 80's song - different - but pretty good

Gary I thought that was great - just tried to get the tab to have a go at playing it...

That'll keep me busy for the next month.

I have this somewhere - If I find it I will ping you with it -

the album (first one ) is great the second one is really very good but over priced -(UK price at £23.00)

check out his live versions of the 80's classics- if you like acoustics then have at look at this (no singing just acoustic)

you can actual hear the song

 

[GaryPanic]

another good cover is

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-wHb-StkUQ

get to the site and check the other covers he does
a bit upbeat and a nice interpretation of a classic song - decent vocals for the song

at the moment I am into people doing decent covers of orginals -
they range from 60-now male/female - but mainly acoustic

there are a lot of crap songs out there at the moment - but some of the covers done in my opinion are better than the orginal - I am listening to some crazy dutch guy at the moment - super talented - but very Dutch

I actually think there's a lot of good contemporary stuff out there...

The method of making money from music seems to be subtely changing and a lot of people seem to making there money from the actual performances rather than selling the music so much. Its difficult to tell how this will affect things..

But some good stuff that I've discovered...

Punk ain't dead either(Long live the HIVES)

and finally something probably less likely to appeal to possible the more mainstream some scottish electronica - Unicorn Kid ( a 17 year old from Leith) I think they call this chip electronica - made from sounds you get sampled out of those little casio keyboards and old video games

Here are some suggestions not all are available to listen:

A little diversion on a lighter note:

Wagner's Ring

Don't worry you won't have to sit through 21 hours or so, Anna Russell has conveniently condensed it to under 25 minutes in 3 Parts

I'm guessing that not everyone maybe had a trance period but...

I had a car nicked and when I got it back it had all these birthday cards in it to randoms. A special two tone paint colour and no wheels..

But I had gained some trance... not least
