The Rolling Stones - Exile On The Main Street (Remastered)


This is one of the best albums of their career and of the Rock n' Roll genre. The album was conceived and recorded in France in the early seventies when The Stones were in exile from England for evading taxes.

After fifty years The Rolling Stones accessed the Exile tapes from their vault and invited their estranged buddy Mick Taylor to remaster this gem and added a bonus disc out of the outtakes of the sessions in the early seventies.

So, here it is - the 50th Anniversary remastered edition of Exile On Main Street with a bonus disc.

Tony Furtado



An excellent banjo and slide guitar player playing bluegrass infused with Celtic, Jazz, Folk and of course the blues. Tony Furtado is quite a regular and well acclaimed musician in the Jam music circuit giving regular shows. He is as good on electric guitar as he is on acoustic and electric banjo. His improvisations on guitar has a bluesy feel which kind of captures me.

Enjoy!

Railroad Earth



Railroad Earth is a roots and Americana-based jam band whose particular brand of new grass music is simply mind blowing!

Those of you who are like the Garcia-Grisman type of music will surely like this band. Their name was inspired by Jack Kerouac's short story "October in the Railroad Earth", by which the band also has a song. Railroad Earth's music combines elements of bluegrass, rock and roll, jazz, celtic and more, and the group is also known for its extensive live improvisation and lyrical songwriting within an acoustic base.



The six band members first came together in January 2001. Originally line-up was:

Todd Sheaffer - vocalist/guitarist/songwriter;
Tim Carbone- violinist/vocalist;
John Skehan - mandolinist;
Andy Goessling - multi-instrumentalist;
Carey Harmon - drummer/vocalist;
Dave Von Dollen - bassist.

Here is an extract from the web:

<< the group kicked off by rehearsing a handful of original songs, mostly written by Sheaffer, the former From Good Homes songwriter, just to get together, hang out and play some music. But after just three weeks of rehearsing, they decided to go into a local recording studio to track a five song demo. Recorded live with no overdubs except backing vocals, this untitled demo set Railroad Earth's career in motion. Within a week they had manager Brian Ross on board, who sent their demo out to several festival promoters...quickly landing them a slot at the prestigious Telluride Bluegrass Festival. That appearance was the new band's tenth as Railroad Earth. The previous nine gigs had been little more than warm-ups at small North Jersey bars and Elks lodges.[1] In early April 2001, the band returned to the same local studio and tracked another five songs to complete an album. The Black Bear Sessions was released to the public in June 2001, one week before their appearance at Telluride. The album contains what are still some of the most popular songs in Railroad Earth's repertoire, including "Seven Story Mountain," "Head" and, of course, "Railroad Earth." Immediately following their appearance at Telluride, Sugar Hill Records approached the band and offered them a record deal.

In June 2002, Railroad Earth released its follow-up album on Sugar Hill entitled Bird In A House, featuring songs such as "Like A Buddha," "Mighty River," and the album's title track. Throughout that year Railroad Earth's touring schedule increased dramatically and their growing fanbase began to emerge as something tangible to promoters, radio stations and other media. They were garnering raves for their unique sound and exciting live shows and had become a staple act on the line-up of any Roots, Folk or jam-band festival. Their fans, who were now calling themselves "Hobos," began to grow quickly in size, and the venues were getting larger along with them.

In late March 2003, Dave Von Dollen was replaced by Atlanta-based bassist Johnny Grubb. The following year, the band released its third studio effort, The Good Life, featuring "Storms," Mourning Flies," and "Goat." The band continued to tour throughout the country, and its first live album, "Elko," was issued in late January 2006. They performed at the Austin City Limits Music Festival on September 15, 2007.

The band's fourth studio album, entitled Amen Corner, was released on June 10, 2008. The album features songs such as "Been Down This Road," "Hard Livin'," "Waggin' The Dog," and "Lovin' You."

On November 11, 2009, Grubb announced his departure from the band after Railroad Earth's New Year's Eve run of shows in Portland, OR. In February 2010, Andrew Altman of the Codetalkers and Blueground Undergrass was named as his successor.

The band's self-titled fifth album was released on Oct 12, 2010.[2] The album featured Andy Goessling, for the first time playing electric guitar, and new songs from Todd Sheaffer including "Jupiter and the 119" and " Too much information" plus a 11-minute instrumental, written by John Skehan, "Spring-Heeled Jack." SHJ is John Skehan's initials backwards. It is the longest studio track to date for the band.

The band was announced to perform the self-titled album in its entirity and video tape it to send to the fans. >>

Anouar Brahem


This Tunisian is a virtuoso of the instrument Oud, playing it for more than 35 years now. His instrument and its music is very captivating and deeply meditative in nature. It really calms you down and takes you on a journey... a journey of self exploration in my case.

Apart from playing Arabian classical music, he has been playing a fusion of jazz and Arabian folk and classical music. He is regarded as an innovator of the instrument that he plays and has played with Dave Holland, John Surman, Jan Garbarek and Shaukat Hussein among others.

You can visit his website to know more about him.

Here are two of his albums that I like the best.

Thimar
