Found this gem on my computer today. Hadn’t heard it since college. As awesome today as was back then. Complements of CMC of Action as a Second Laugage.
One of the greats. Etta James.
This one is a slow burn but Billy Preston et. al bring down the house in this classic.
If you can’t get excited about this, then there’s not much I can do for you.
It’s no secret to anyone that has spoken to me in the last 5 years that I love Josh Ritter. Ever since being introduced to the Idaho troubadour by my friend Lisa he’s been one artist that stays in heavy rotation on my music playlists. He’s new and relevant and yet every time I play him around my Dad he asks if he’s listening to various artist from years past (Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan).
I’ve seen him in concert twice and I’m going to catch him again this weekend. So to commemorate that I’m going to give you my list of my favorite Josh Ritter songs. I had a tough time making this list having to leave off dozens of great songs and if you ask me tomorrow I may give you 10 different songs. I especially had trouble ordering the top three but life’s tough and I did it anyways.
So, whether this is the first time you’re hearing these songs or they’re old favorites I hope that they mean something to you like the mean to me.
A pretty good Beatles cover for the first three and a half minutes… then my jaw dropped.
Oh, and this video is undoubtedly meant to be played LOUD.
For those who claim Clapton is overrated…
