I was jamming out to Frank Sinatra last night. Tonight it's the Johnny Carlton Band. Good Blues.

Celtic Woman "At the Ceilli"

Moreno Valley is about 60% Latino, so the first thing I did when I moved out here two years ago was find the best Mexican restaurant in town, and as soon as the regular customers and waitresses found out that I'm a musician, they started recommending all this cool stuff to me. Check out:

Mana. Saw them play live at Staples. Don't be fooled by the MTV Unplugged show; these guys rock.
Elefante. Latin-flavored rock and pop.
Camila. Almost too close to chick-pop, but still excellent.
Catupecu Machu. Think Argentinian grunge.
Allison. Pop-punk in Espanol.
Wisin y Yandel. Reggaeton? Whatever, one guy sings, the other guy raps. I don't even like rap, but these guys are pretty cool.
Marco Antonio Solis. Pop ballads.
Ana Gabriel. Pop ballads and ranchera (Mariachi with a guitar army.)
Ricardo Arjona. Pop ballads.
Prince Royce. Bachata.
Romeo Santos. Bachata.

Raphael Saadiq - Stone Rollin

Morning talk radio streamed from So Cal. Interview with Frankie Valli about the 'early days' and how the Jersey Boys project came about. Very kool.

the ringing in my head....

Pearl Jam- Live at the Gorge.. killer 5 disc-er

keep'n it old skool

An old, old oldie

Johann Sebastian Bach, Toccata and Fugue in D Minor

Seasick Steve - Can't Teach An Old Dog New Tricks

the recent VH disc. Liked it at first, but the real test is if I ever listen to it a few months after getting it. Nope. thumbs down.

Hope Slash's new one is good.

give Martin Grubinger a listen. Drums 'n' Chant.

More old school - Root Boy Slim and the Sex Change Band on the way in to work this morning. In keeping with the "skinny" theme, I'll probably listen to Watermelon Slim on the way home.
