Be Cool - Johnny Moore’s Three Blazers

I like this much better than the existing Bond theme for Spectre. Radiohead's Spectre:

Right now watching a classic Queen concert, I think at Wembley. There is a reason they were so huge. Brian May's musicianship combined with Freddie's voice and showmanship made for an authentic, flawless, and moving experience for any music lover. Truly one of the GOAT bands, one of a kind...

Oliver Cheatham - Get Down Saturday Night

George Benson - Give Me The Night

PJ Harvey

Buckcherry - Riding

I don't like a lot of Larry Carlton's music, but for some reason I can listen to this song over and over again.

I love the work he did with Steely Dan. Didn't he cover the leads in 'My Old School'? Impeccable.

Yes @dak4n6. He did a lot of work with Steely Dan - My Old School, Reelin' In the Years, Don't Take Me Alive, Aja... I like his stuff when he uses just a bit of distortion/overdrive (I'm unsure of the right term). 

I watched a documentary (rockumentary?) on Fagen and Becker of Steely Dan. They didn't seem like they were easy to work with. Studio musicians had to be thick-skinned. They would record hours of tracks and often none of it would be used on the album.

Let's not forget Kid Charlemagne. The guitar work on all of those songs is just on the edge of my ability to play. He has this way of picking just the right notes without being either obvious or strange.

Yes Becker and Fagan were perfectionists. It's what made their sound so polished. They were widely criticized for that, but they couldn't care less what the critics said, and that perfection is what they strived for. Like there is something wrong with musical perfection...

I think Aja is one of the greatest compositions/performances ever. Steve Gadd's drumming is amazing. As you said earlier, I could listen to that one over and over and over (and I have).

Maybe I have not watched or heard it enough but not really a fan of the song Blackstar, however, this one, Lazarus is very good!
