She really has a talent for bringing together great groups for her compositions.

Definitely in Trevor Horn’s top 10 best tracks…
I had never seen it before, and just watched it as part of my David Lynch chronological movie viewing bonanza. What I learned (and didn’t know @howard) was EON’s Spice is THAT spice. I had no clue.

The movie - and Sting - definitely…made an impression on me.

The production on that Peter Gabriel concert though! You go to some concerts and the performances sound so wildly different than the albums (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing). But Gabriel & and his band sound pitch perfect.

If I want to cheer myself up, I like to listen to Babymetal, or Nanowar of Steel. Today, Nanowar
The Spotify playlist titled ‘Blues Focus’.
Enough going on to be interesting, plenty of soul to it, but mellow enough to allow me to beaver away writing scripts (I’m a Data Analyst)
When working I tend to listen to pretty laid back stuff as to not be distracting, often listening to Lo-Fi and Chillstep type stuff, but step it up with some old school Blues, Country Rock, or one of the BassBuss playlists if I need to up tempo
Juna, with really good shots of how she uses her thumb on her fret hand
last week was the 40th anniversary of REM’s first EP ‘chronic town.’ their first 6 albums (thru ‘green’) were just exceptional.

Need cheering up? Listen to Babymetal, it works for me.
This is Su’s first group, and for many reasons the song that launched Babymetal. Kei Kobayashi saw this and dreamed up the Babymetal project, thinking Su was wasted on pop and needed something that would not limit her. It would take a few years before he had a chance to work with her.
Su was maybe 10 here, the other two are older, and starts on the left, and she is front and center when singing “Yes change the World”. The song is a theme song for a kids anime.
One of Yui’s family got very ill and almost died, and this is the song that got her through and made her want to become a singer, and when she went to the audition for Babymetal she brought her friend Moa.
When Yui got injured and couldn’t make it to the stage, instead of singing with the band Su sang this during soundcheck.
Su was so young when she started. No wonder she chose to take a break in 22. She’s been at it non-stop for 14 years.
Rex Brown’s band. It’s just good old southern rock that he did guitar, bass, and vocals on. Given the genre and the fact that he is a bass player himself, you know you can hear that bass.
Yeah, so I just became aware tonight about the (spoof) Al Yankovic film, “Weird,” so had to go down the Weird Al spiral:

The original “Beat It” by Michael Jackson had Steve Lukather on lead guitar and bass guitar.
