"Get Rhythm" - The RT Music Discussion Thread: Rock, Blues, Country, Soul

"Get Rhythm" - The RT Music Discussion Thread: Rock, Blues, Country, Soul, Funk, Punk, Bluegrass and more

Hi, everyone:

I thought it would be cool to have a music-discussion / clip-sharing thread here, for those of us who want to talk about music, our favorite bands and swap links to some of our fave performances.

I think this kind of thread will be a welcome respite from some of the heated political debates that mostly go on here

So, tell us, who are some of your faves bands or artists? Post some of your fave clips! Or tell us who / what you've have you been listening to lately.....

One thing that is fun about these kinds of threads is that sometimes a "theme" will develop: Like, one person will post a clip of a song that might inspire the next person to post a song on the same topic, or maybe another song by the same band, or a song by a related band, or a cover version of the same song by a different band, etc.

Or maybe a clip will just make you think of a different song for some subconscious reason. That's sort of cool, when a collective musical "stream of consciousness" gets going

Here, I'll start with a clip of the song that inspired the name of this thread: "Get Rhythm."

This is a pretty cool clip, as it is a montage of four different versions of Johnny Cash, doing one of his signature songs -- they assembled this clip from four different performances of "Get Rhythm" -- from 1956 to '58 to '82 to '91. Kind of interesting to hear the song "evolve"
