Couple new CD's on the way, any thoughts?
I ordered Blackfield II and the latest Stanley Clarke, Toys Of Men.
I really liked the Blackfield samples, reminded me of the acoustic and melodic side of Porcupine Tree. Looking forward to hearing it.
Clarke's samples show his new offering may have a variety of stuff on it from his signature Funkified bass attack to straight up Jazz and I even think there was a song with a female vocalist.
More to come if I think either of these are worthy of their own thread. Or, maybe I'll get lucky enough to get them, hear them and post before this thread disappears. Anyone have these albums already I'd be interested in hearing your impressions.
I almost bought an album by the Sateliters. They are called "Garage" but they just sounded like a really cool current band playing 60's Rock complete with the old organ. It was just tough making up my mind listening to short samples. One listen I was into it and another just so so. I really wasn't a big fan of that type of 60's sound but the songs were very catchy. Most of the stuff I like from the 60's like the Zombies, early Hollies and the like, I like certain songs but not whole albums. Maybe I should have dropped a couple bucks and tried some mp3's. It would have been a first.
