G-Man The Lackloves - "The Radio's Mine"
Don't know much about these guys. Possibly Canadian? No longer around? This song if from the 90's I think. Maybe 2002. Potentially 2007. Anyone's guess. I like songs about radio. Stereos. Boomboxes. Delve into my past.
G-Man Metallica - "Low Man's Lyric"
1997 was 20 years ago. Crazy to think of how time marches on so fast. That means Metallica's ReLoad turns 20 this year. Plenty of great songs of the album to pick from. The lesser known "Low Man's Lyric" was always a favourite of mine from the record. It features hurdy gurdy and violin. Rare that different musicians appear on a 'Tallica track. This song can really set a somber mood.
It's theme month December! Last week was a Dano theme and this week Rob takes us back in time. He wanted to hear about our favourite songs that were introduced to us via gift. Whether it was a new CD or a mix that someone made for us....his pick was from a CD that he borrowed from a roommate so many times that the roommate eventually just gave him the album. Let's see what it was
Rob At The Drive-In - "Proxima Centauri"
Mr. T The Eagles - "Pretty Maids All In A Row" Or as Mr. T calls it "Pretty Little Maids" - G-Man
G-Man Jakalope - "Feel It"
I went a little nuts and picked 3 songs. Usually i'm the guy who made the mix cds for people (usually ladies), because I love introducing people to new tracks. I feel it's one of my 4 purposes on this Earth. It was a fun assignment to think of times when that table was turned. One lady in my home town surprised me with a great mix and I was eager to listen to it. A few songs from that CD have become G-Man staples. The 3rd pick here is from the same mix, but Jakalope's "Feel It" holds a special place in my memory...always think of her when I hear it
Guster - "One Man Wrecking Machine"
I think I picked this one before, which is why I did a third one. This one was introduced to me via a DVD of animated music videos. Guster has since become one of my favourite acts. Thanks YP!
Finley Quaye - "Dice"
See the first write up. Sh'yeah
Doug Maestro Fresh Wes - "Let Your Back Bone Slide" Doug's pretty sure he got Symphony In Effect on cassette as a Christmas gift in his younger years... - G-Man
Dano Xavier Rudd - "Message" Dano is pretty sure both these songs were introduced to him by pretty brown haired girls. I can relate to that - G-Man
