James Morrison with a composition called "Snappy Too". James plays every instrument and every part in this piece except for the drums (but he could probably also swing that in a pinch)

Code's eclectic music pick of the day:

Yeah, OK, I've probably picked too many Jeff Lynne/ELO songs lately, but I feel like this short Dylanesque piece is largely unknown, and it contains a timely message.

So here is "Save me Now" by Jeff Lynne.

Code's eclectic music pick of the day:

48 years ago (!), this group released an album that fused baroque music with synth rock (and had nothing to do with Christmas). Initially the album was marketed to high-end audio stores, as the recording was a great test for amps and speakers, and provided a very dynamic experience for audiophiles. I'll never forget how it sounded on Klipschorns and 800 watt amps.

Here Mannheim Steamroller's "Toccata"

Code's eclectic music pick of the day:

Time to close your eyes for 2 minutes and 45 seconds, take some deep breaths and just chill. Unless you are, ya' know, driving or something.

And hey, while you're at it, maybe listen to Sinj Clarke's "Unas Horas", which happens to fit into that time slot perfectly.

One of my favorite guitarists. If you ever get a chance to see him live, take it. His playing is mesmerizing. And each time I've heard him live, the audience is silent, unlike so many other shows these days.

Not the most pristine recording, but here is Adrian Legg live playing "Midwest Sunday"

Listening now: If you dig prog with a tinge of metal, this whole album is a treat.

"As the Waters Cover the Sea" by Umpfel.

Lately I feel that my "eclectic" picks have been not very eclectic (I've been on a bit of a power pop jag) so will ask Spotify for some random choices from my personal playlists. 🙂

Here is "Pardon Me, I have to Go Now" by HANABIE 【花冷え。】 - お先に失礼します。

Guess I'm in a goofy song mood today. Probably has something to do with feeling nervously, cautiously happy, I'm sure.

Here is Brad Brooks with "Juliette Lewis Day Off"

Day 6 of music week.

Here is the song "Poor Little Fool" by Helen Reddy (!).

Written/composed by... well, by now you already know who I'm gonna say, and yes, you can tell just by listening.

Sermon created one of my fave albums of 2019. A one-man band (who remains anonymous) this is melancholic metal that can also hit hard, with deep and brave lyrics. Their latest release came out (in full) today, and - WOW. If you dig metal that also has some lyrical depth, check out the album "Of Golden Verse." I've already posted one track today, here's another that I had to play three times in a row just now.

The song "Let It Run" from the movie Electric Dreams, by Jeff Lynne. Great 80's cheese for a wonderfully bright day.

Also check "Video" from that same soundtrack.

Here is Zoila Augusta Emperatriz Chavarri del Castillo, also known as Yma Sumac with Gopher Mambo. Nobody had a voice (or vocal command) quite like hers.
