The Black Keys have very quickly become one of my favorite bands.
I'm extremely happy I've found these guys, they are wonderful :D

Was in the mood for a Fleetwood Mac album.


A lot of great tracks on this album, especially:
  • Don't Stop
  • Silver Springs
  • The Chain
  • Oh Daddy
  • Gold Dust Woman

Some 'easy' listening King Crimson.
King Crimson does a lot of improv and experimental stuff and so many of their tracks are ridiculously cacophonic, but once in a while they hit some unique lovely melody that just takes you places.

I really like the free-spirited style of The Who tracks.

Currently exploring Chicago

I've listened to their first 2 albums now: Chicago Transit Authority and Chicago II.
It's not quite the usual stuff I listen to, but I think I'll learn to like it a lot.
My impression is that pretty much everything they produce is good, but simultaneously it's bit hard to pick highlights because I'm not that attuned to it yet. They're a little bit hard to put down as they seem to produce anything from rock to almost classical :?
I guess a bit like a less experimental King Crimson...

Here are some of the tracks I've like the most.

Introduction
First track on Chicago Transit Authority. This kind Jazz Rock seems to be their bread and butter.


Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?
This feels a bit familiar for some reason. Is it used frequently in movies?


Listen
Bread and butter stuff.


Poem for the People
First track on Chicago II to catch my attention.


25 or 6 to 4 (25 or 26 minutes to 4 o'clock)
Coming off the classic rock train right now, this is the only real highlight for me so far. I don't remember where I heard it, but this is what introduced me to Chicago in the first place. It's part of the Chicago II album. It's mainly due to the very similar guitar riff, but it feels like a 'Big Band' take on Led Zeppelin's Babe I'm gonna leave you.


Memories of Love
A little mini classical/jazz/blues/opera thing (Is that a thing??). One of 3 'operas' on the album.
In reality this piece is credited as 4 separate tracks: Prelude, A.M. Mourning, P.M. Mourning, Memories of Love.
It fits kind of nicely next to King Crimson's Bolero :)

For some reason I'm binging some non-English tracks.

Bulgarian:



German:



Dutch:



Spanish:




I wish Nena - Irgenwie,irgendwo,irgenwann would get a proper remaster/remake. The audio quality just isn't there and I feel like it would benefit from a little bit of modernization. I basically want something like that version with Kim Wilde, but without the Kim Wilde...

edit:
Bonus German:

Pearl Jam - Yield
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udI4v7uRIGU

Great Album, Awesome Energy!
I don't think there's a single bad song on there :D

Biggest highlights for me:

Brain of J.
Awesome energetic catchy start to the album. That "Whole world will be different soon" loop is just such an earworm.


Faithfull
Not too much to say here. It's simply a well-rounded track.


No Way
I like that guitar riff.


Do the Evolution
The centerpiece of the album. Surely this has to be one of the most legendary music videos out there, right?
The song is so angry, but it's with the accompanying clip that it truly shines!
Also Death is hot :drool:

Low Light
A bit of softer rock, to balance out the album after all the angrier tracks that preceded it.


All Those Yesterdays + Hummus
A 'two for one' deal. first a bit more of the 'soft' rock (relatively speaking), and then hidden bonus track in the form of Hummus: A weird little out of place medley, but not unpleasant at all.
