Flobots - Handlebars

Flobots again! I guess I listen to them a lot.

Thanks Dan!

Allman Brothers - Whipping Post

Blues? Meet Rock. I think you two will get along great!

Yonder Mountain String Band - New Speedway Boogie

Bluegrass is about as country as I get.

I first was introduced to bluegrass from Lucas. He said, "Joe we gotta go to this concert."

Sure enough, YMSB blew me away. This is their rendition of The Greatful Dead's New Speedway Boogie.

Light em up!

Mastodon - Sleeping Giant

When Darrell first told me I should check out Mastodon, I was hesitant. Darrell likes metal. Darrell likes Slayer. Darrell likes a lot harder metal than Joe does.

However, I love Mastodon's Blood Mountain album... especially this track.

Flobots - Same Thing

"Saying the same thing over again..." The harmonies were on repeat in my brain this morning.

Blank

No earworm today. I was up late last night and woke up in a rush. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Taj Mahal - That's how strong my love is

This song was written in 1964 by Roosevelt Jamison. It's been covered by Otis Redding, The Rolling Stones and by, my favorite, Taj Mahal.

Today's earworm is this verse:

I'll be the weeping willow drowning in my tears
You can go swimming when you're here
I'll be the rainbow when the sun is gone
Wrap you in my colors and keep you warm
