The Outpost Cafe / Re: So, what have you been listening to lately?

I can’t stand her!
Her so-called first reactions are totally fake. She pretends to never have heard songs before. And her facial expressions are so studied it’s almost an insult to her audience and to the artists she analyses.
The only good thing is she has a good knowledge of singing techniques..

Agree to disagree, but thanks for commenting.

I've discovered reaction videos on YouTube, and there's one "reactor" who is a professional opera singer, Elizabeth Zharoff. She focuses more than most on analyzing the vocal technique of singers. She does like popular music, she's interesting to listen to, and I've gotten a kick out of her analysis of SRV, the Moody Blues, Chicago and other artists.  Evidently her background is stronger in classical and popular, so there's a lot of older popular stuff she isn't familiar with.

This one is her reaction to You've Lost That Loving Feeling, and IMO it's a good listen.



And another band some of us know...



Here's one of my favorites - her first time hearing SRV:

He has always been an ass. This just formalizes it.

I am a fan of The Raven with Karloff, Vincent Price and Peter Lorre (and a young Jack Nicholson).  Great movie with odd period special effects, and lots of portentous dialog spoken in foreboding tones of doom. It could easily be a two-beer movie.

 If, by some chance I have managed to drag you, of all people, down just a little  ;)

Well, it's a pretty short trip....

I remember reading some time ago that one (1) tree of the Sherwood forest had been preserved alive.  I can't recall the source.

I like it!

I like ZZ TOp, including most of their newer stuff. They simply are what they are, and have been for years.

Three hours was always a long gig, and it gets more so as we age.

Regardless, long may the Thunderqueen play!!

A man who created a distinctive sound that people fell in love with. Also closely linked by reverb to surf and artists like Link Wray.

R.I.P., Duane.
