crazyfingers Full Audioholic Apr 17, 2023 454 0 16 Massachusetts Mar 26, 2024 #1 I'm trying to find some new-to-me bands to expand the variety of my library My favorite bands are Grateful Dead and Dead and Company Dire Straits Crosby, Stills, Nash including or excluding Young The Moody Blues Later Beatles Jefferson Airplane The Kinks I also like singer/songwriters like James Taylor Gordon Lightfoot Al Stewart I have some greatest hits from Elton John, Lynyrd Skynyrd , Steve Miller, but don't think I'd go beyond that. I have some vinyls of Fleetwood Mac, Supertramp, ELO but never bothered to get the CDs I don't really like Led Zeppelin too much. Never much liked the Rolling Stones. I've tried some Phish and Goose but they are a bit too edgy for me. Given my tastes any suggestions on bands or musicians I should look at to expand my library? Any suggestions I'd sample on YouTube so any suggestions appreciated. Reactions: Tankini

Bobby Bass Audioholic General May 20, 2023 1,491 0 36 Mar 27, 2024 #2 How about Cat Stevens as another singer/songwriter. America has great songs. Paul Simon With or without Garfunkel. Jimmy Buffet. Looks like you’re not into prog rock or the blues or heavy metal. As a Dead fan there are a lot of jam bands that follow in their footsteps like the Dave Matthews Band. I love Little Feat too. I know you’re not into steaming but these older bands have a lot of used CDs you can checkout. Good listening! Reactions: Tankini and crazyfingers

Very well recorded. My oldest Son turned me on to them. I believe you'll like them. Their a "Norwegian" group, Very talented I love her voice. She'd put Taylor Swift to shame for sure. They are "Gothic metal" but umm think, "Symphonic metal" check'um out. SIRENIA - Nine Destinies and a Downfall (Full Album, with Music Videos and Timestamps) (youtube.com) Last edited: May 23, 2024

I like Dave’s cover of “watchtower”. If you can get the BD of Dave and Tim Reynolds’s live at radio city, I don’t think you’d be disappointed at all. It is acoustic without the band, but it’s very well played and recorded. I like some of these versions better than with the band. Reactions: Mark E. Long and adk highlander

I've sampled some Phish on Youtube and what I've sampled didn't really do it for me. Lack of a nice melody I guess is what my reaction was. But I suppose I should give it a second chance. Same with Goose.

Lyrically Trey and his writing partner Tom are kind of all over the place. But I am surprised by your thoughts on a lack of nice melody. Good luck in your exploration.
