Song of the day..........Screaming Trees with "Black Rose Way"

One of the most underrated, and unappreciated bands from the grunge era was Screaming Trees. They just never caught on. Mark Lanegans vocals remind me of so many of those vocalists from the '70's rock era. The music is pretty straight ahead rock and I think was very comparable to some of the early Pearl Jam material. In 2011 the Screaming Trees released the album "Last Words: The Final Recordings." The album included material that had been recorded in '98-99', but had never been released. One of the gems on that album is the song of the day, "Black Rose Way."

Song of the day...........Def Leppard with "Photograph"

I've always really liked this song. Especially the chorus riff. Who really dislikes Def Leppard anyways? I think everyone's got a favorite Def Leppard song. It's hard to believe that this one came out when I was 10 years old.

Song of the day.........Brooks & Dunn with "Boot Scootin' Boogie"

Boy I feel old..........watching this video. It seems like this song came out yesterday, and this video looks like something from an old episode of "Soul Train." Maybe it's how ancient the stage looks. Not a big fan of Brooks & Dunn honestly, but if you listen to the song once it will become stuck in your brain for at least 24 hours. For better or worse......

Song of the day........Splitsville with "Ponce de Leon"

Do you like Ben Kweller, or Ben Folds? Chances are if you do that you might also enjoy Splitsville. Quirky, pop, piano rock is how I would describe it. See what you think.

Song of the day.........Traffic with "Walking in the Wind"

Listening to Wilco has definitely given me a fonder appreciation of Traffic's material. I've always liked Steve Winwood's great song's from the '80's but never listened to his stuff with Traffic. This song is a great introduction to the band that is Traffic. Piano based rock that has a lot of beautiful things going on with it. Give it a listen.
