Quote from: NICU on December 9, 2011, 10:51 AM^Sweet. Really like Vetiver. Did you like Errant Charm? I think Tight Knit is still my favorite of the albums, but Wonder Why was one of the catchiest tunes of the year.I'm actually not all that familiar with Vetiver. I know some of their stuff (really like Wonder Why) but I haven't really tracked the majority of their stuff down. The only reason I even knew them is because I was watching a documentary (180 South - it's about a free spirit that goes on a journey blah blah) and I heard Rolling Sea during one of the scenes and I instantly liked it so I Shazaam'd it. It's funny but that's how I find the majority of the stuff I listen to.....an odd commercial or a background song in a bar and chase it from there.

Just bought it on iTunes.The song cycle that is the heart of the CD was commissioned by the North Carolina symphony and scored. Laurelyn and her bandmates performed it with the symphony over Thanksgiving weekend:Song #2 - Lights in the Lowlands - Laurelyn Dossett's The Gathering:A Winter's Tale in Six Songs

Saw ZZTop as a "warm up" band in '71, also saw Deep Purple, Sabbath, Humble Pie (twice), Uriah Heep, Alice Cooper, and Jethro Tull in the early 70's. Pretty familiar with Jethro Tull and Deep Purple. Tull way too profound for me, and that flute. Oy. Smoke on the Water one of all time greats. Fits my wife's idea of what makes a great song, a great bass. Remember the Police's "Every Step You Take"? Same thing, great bass. That song made that band and Sting. 1 year before that song became a hit, The Police played in Poughkeepsie, and less than 100 people attended. Amazing.

Do any of you guys use Spotify? I just signed up and it's pretty cool. I'd recommend it if you're a music person.
Talk about getting a lot of music out of one guitar. This video fascinated me - it's starting to go viral.http://youtu.be/d9NF2edxy-M
