No particular reason, but after digging through some old non-IDM tunes in an
effort to listen to some music that had been shelved for awhile I came
across some great stuff that I almost had forgotten about. Almost...
DJ Spooky - "Riddim Warfare" - a very pivotal album for me a few years back.
Can't really explain just why, but damn this stuff is good. Just like the
title suggests.
Sade - "Love Deluxe" - good shit, just damn good. If you have a significant
other and you are quarreling, this should set it straight. Saw Sade this
past summer and her voice was simply mesmerizing. Melting, really. And she
carries herself as the epitome of a strong, sensual, confident woman. Sexy
as hell.
Al Green - "Live in Tokyo" - I swear, if you haven't heard this album then
you are really missing out. Just the shit old Reverend Al says to the crowd
between sets is priceless. This album's version of "Love and Happiness" is
one of the most pimp tracks I think I have ever heard, and that's a bold
statement.
A Tribe Called Quest - "Low End Theory" - quite possibly the best hip-hop
album of all time? Enough said.
Led Zeppelin - "Tangerine" - not a big fan of the group at all, but this
track was the essence of growing up with my mother's record collection
available.
Jim Croce - "Time in a Bottle" - Sounds cheesy, I know - BUT, this shit
touches a nerve somehow.
Smashing Pumpkins - "Mayonnaise" - Epic. One of those tracks that I have no
qualms about blazing at top decibel levels and jamming to with my sweetride
imaginary electric guitar. It's red and shiny.
Sorry if this might be a tad off topic, but just thought I would share in
the hopes that maybe a few folks might dig one of these gems up and give it
a listen again and maybe get the same feeling from it that I did. Would
like to hear similar findings from others. Everyone has roots in something
that led to them being on this list, so I am always curious as to others'
influences. Sorry again, hope this wasn't too off topic. Rediscovery is a
wonderful thing, ya dig?
