You're listening to your bank account?

Sorry, just being silly.

I'm listening to the guitarist ROBERTO MORÓN. What does that imply?

That you look beyond superficial details, such as a guy’s name?

The Horseflies- Human Fly (1988)



Progressive folk. Highly recommended to @Ojai Sam , @axolotl , and @Old Uncle Toe .

As Axo noted, Human Fly wasn't on Spotify, but this was...

The Horse Flies - Until The Ocean



Based on the video you posted and half of the first track of Until The Ocean, it's nifty music. I like it.

SFJazz Collective - Live 2006: 3rd Annual Concert Tour: The Music of Herbie Hancock

Like all living things, jazz needs to breathe, or it will die. SFJazz Collective is pumping serious amounts of fresh air into the mix. Live 2006 combines welcome blasts from jazz's past with the creative spirit of a new generation. Take a deep breath. You'll feel better.

The Motels - Apocalypso (recorded 1981, released 2011 )

Here's a disc that answers the burning question "why did The Motels wait two years to release their third album?" Short answer: they didn't wait. They recorded Apocalypso but Capitol Records rejected it, saying "too strange, too dark, and where's the single?" So, the following year lead singer Martha Davis kicked her abusive guitarist boyfriend to the curb (served him right ) and the band rerecorded the same songs in a more commercial vein. The resulting album All Four One proved to be their commercial breakthrough.

Omnivore Recordings gives us the chance to play "what if" by releasing the whole album plus 5 bonus demos and an alternate. Speaking as a devoted fan of X, I'm really sorry The 'Tels didn't released this edgy, guitar-fueled romp. Exene could have used the competition in the quirky dark-haired rocker sweepstakes.

on the Sam-O-Meter but not on Spotify .
