I'm still listing to and enjoying the older music video performed by Kate Bush that was posted by elija in the music thread from last year:

Kate Bush - Wuthering Heights - Official Music Video - Version 1 - YouTube

She's really quite talented, so I can see why this video and music made her very popular so quickly.

You know how kids rebel against Dad growing up. Having a biker Dad listening to Don't fear the Reaper and ZZTOP pushed him into rap music and sports cars.

Sound Grammar by Ornette Coleman. Was given it for Christmas - fantastic!

It's a bit of an oldie... I heard it on the radio and I remembered loving the song.

I was just listening to Old & In the Way in my car on the way to/from my bluegrass band practice tonight. A great couple of albums by what may possibly be the best "pickup" bluegrass band ever: Jerry "Spuds" Garcia (banjo), David "The Dawg" Grisman (mandolin), Vassar Clements (fiddle), John Kahn (bass), and Peter Rowan (guitar).

FWIW, I play mandolin, and was able to participate in a workshop at the Chicago Old Town School with Grisman earlier this year. Truly a treat! Best $40 I ever spent, considering that there were only about 15-20 people (or less) attending.

Although Garcia is most famous as "Captain Trips" of the Grateful Dead, he started out on the banjo way back in the dark ages of the early 60's.

It might be a bit repetitious, but that's an interesting band, song, and video, nonetheless. Those hula dancers were pretty good, too!
