Here’s another great psychedelic rock album that came my way via the Spotify algorithm. For a genre that I never really explored much until the past few years, I now spend a whole lot of time in it.

#452 – The Color of You by Alina Baraz
A while back I listened to a collaboration between this artist and the producer/DJ Galimatias. It is an excellent album and one of the selections from this project that I have revisited the most. Although I’m trying not to repeat artists if possible, this one was good enough that I wanted to hear what theirContinue reading “#452 – The Color of You by Alina Baraz”
#451 – Folk Time by Hart Valley Drifters
Yesterday was Jerry Garcia’s birthday, so there were a bunch of articles paying tribute to different aspects of his career. This album is supposed to be one of the earliest known recordings of Jerry.
#450 – The NIGHTDAY by ZHU
One of the genres that I am mournfully poorly-versed in is Dance, so it works to my advantage that I know quite a few people that love that scene.
#449 – The Two of Us by Yarbrough & Peeples
A friend of mine recommended that I check out this artist. He has known them for years from doing session work with them while in the Dallas music scene. I enjoyed this one thoroughly and will be checking them out when they come through on their big, post-Covid tour.
#448 – The Lost Album by The Meteors
Just read an article about the rise of the “psychobilly” genre and had to do a little dive into that world.
#447 – Opening Night by Kevin Eubanks
This selection is by the co-host of the show I was working on today. Most people know Kevin Eubanks as Jay Leno’s band leader from the Tonight Show, but if you’re a jazz guitar fan you’re probably just as familiar with his long and virtuosic album catalog.
#446 – self-titled by Drakkar Nowhere
Can somebody make a recommendation for me? I seem to be stuck in this loop of modern psychedelia. I’m not complaining; I’ve enjoyed everything that I’ve heard recently. However, this blog is supposed to be as diverse and varied as possible and I keep getting lazy with my selections, not to mention with my postingContinue reading “#446 – self-titled by Drakkar Nowhere”
#445 – The Battle at Garden’s Gate by Greta Van Fleet
I often hear older music fans lamenting the lack of new rock bands in today’s musical landscape. I can’t help but roll my eyes when I hear such a complaint, because the options available today are so diverse. There is truly something out there for everyone, if they’ll only put forth a little bit ofContinue reading “#445 – The Battle at Garden’s Gate by Greta Van Fleet”
#444 – Aratan n Azawad by Terakaft
Back to Africa for this selection, specifically Mali. These guys are another excellent group from the desert blues genre. They were founded by a couple of former members of Tinariwen, another fantastic Saharan band.
