Time for a "What are you listening to" 2021

When I found this song and it kind of sums up my feeling about life now that I'm older...

"All my life I've been over the top
I don't know what I'm doing
All I know is I don't wanna stop
All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop
You're either in or in the way
Don't make me, I don't wanna stop"

 


Robert Conti, the jazz guitarist has a very good book/DVD set on advanced jazz harmony for guitar that makes the subject very practical and accessible. On one of the DVDs, he talks about what the intent of manipulating harmony under the melody is all about. He suggests listening to Singers Unlimited as a prime example of what he aims for when playing solo instrumental guitar. I have a 7 CD set of this vocal group and am really enjoying their music. Some of it is A Capella (i.e. vocals with no instruments accompanying) and much of it is with very interesting instrumentation. They performed a decent range of music from pop to jazz, all of it superb.

A fun, short little song with somewhat of a 60's psychedelic pop vibe.


I saw them in London in 2019 for a 25th anniversary of the band show and they were wonderful.
