I grew up loving rap. Tupac was my generation the best R.I.P.
Low key over the years I always wanted to see if an Italian could break through the rap scene. I finally heard him and I cant believe how good he is and the production is superb.
He goes by Rondodasosa. He grew up ion the projects in Italy. They rap drill rap . Lots of violence.

Not my favorite genre but it's damn good. (I never forgave Rod Stewart for leaving blues, perfect blues voice (see Jeff Beck Truth album).Anyhow...

I recall his Behind the Music, and someone said that he's got a great voice for singing great songs, but it's not necessarily going to make bad songs better, or something like that. The context was his career renaissance with Downtown Train, when he hadn't done anything good in a long time. Maybe something to it that might explain the success of the Great American Songbook series.
Every Picture Tells a Story is kind of undeniable as a great album.

A long long time ago, I had a copy of an audience cassette (digitized/crap quality) from the night Stewart and Jeff Beck split up. They had an argument over microphone volume and Stewart walked off the stage. That was Madison Sq Garden and Jeff Beck then did a 45 minute jam that was awesome. It wasn't until 1985 that they "made up" and did the song 'People Get Ready' together. They official version symbolically tells the story Jeff Beck Truth album featured Rod Stewart as the vocalist. Every song... perfection. Although Beck was already a star (Yardbirds) and found Stewart, several of the songs on Truth were cowritten by them. The song 'Morning Dew' from that album is pretty much the perfect blend of guitar and voice.

If anyone is into Ska and punk Reggae I’ve been hooked on a new band (new to me) called Bumpin Uglies. They’re native to Maryland and not very well known. I also have a lot of recommendations within that genre of music.

Just saw gary clark jr at treehouse brewery in MA. I've long been a fan and after seeing that show last night he is most definitely one of the best guitar players in the world. He was on fire last night. One of the favorite shows I've seen. Highly recommended checking out gary clark jr if you like blues and guitar.

I would have loved to see Gary Clark Jr. play, 'when my train pulls in'.

I would have loved to see Gary Clark Jr. play, 'when my train pulls in'. The venue was awesome in my opinion. It was a smaller place and I'd say there were maybe 1500-2000 people there. I was able to get pretty close and it was just a good mellow show with great vibes. The only negative I had was I honestly didn't like the Treehouse beer that much. It was okay but not my cup of tea which that may sound blasphemous to people who enjoy craft beer since their reputation is as one of the best in NE if not the country/world. That is coming from someone who does enjoy themselves a craft beer but being a Vermonter, give me a Hill Farmstead any day of the week over what I had at Treehouse. I would say I only tried one IPA and one lager at the show so I'm sure they have other ones that I would have liked more.

Seeing Jason Isbell tomorrow at an apple orchard. I feel like the rest of that profile should ready "and I am a 43-year-old dad who likes baseball and wears flannel all winter and whose attempts to get into woodworking have been inconsistent and" OH GOD I'VE BECOME A CLICHE. Anyway, Jason Isbell is good and I'm going to see him at an apple orchard tomorrow.

Here's another odd one. More along the line of Gunship. I always forget this artist and then absolutely fall in with the music only to forget about them again lol. Maybe Depeche Mode would be more accurate. Ooh yes I know this one! It's a cool vibe. I should check out their other stuff! Just found a new band you might be interested in. Mugshot. The song "Good People" features the lead from Kanoshi.

Anyone have any experience with concerts at Fenway and the MLB Ballpark app? Just got an email from Ticketmaster today in regards to tickets I bought through them will evidently transfer to the MLB Ballpark app for my entry to the show(s)? I'm sure there's nothing of concern but I can be a bit of a worry wart at times so figured I'd see if anyone has any insight on that and when I should hopefully see them in my MLB app?

The new Gillian Welch release is great - as is the Cassandra Jenkins album. I've also discovered Big Thief - great band.
