How do we connect the music we love? Words are cheap. How does one song connect to another, for you? Post another song, based on what ever connection you think is important, to the song previously posted. It could be a theme, a feeling, an artist, a special time, a Sopranos episode, or whatever connection is meaningful for you.
If you can, post a youtube or other clip of the song.

What if this is as good as it gets?

So you're not familiar with the early Procul stuff? I definitely reccommend the first 3 or 4 albums -- a lot of it had a sound that was sort of simultaneously bluesy and pastoral, but some of it was sort of psychedelic / baroque, but in a restrained way
Some people described em as the British version of The Band, cos of Matthew Fisher's organ sound being so prominent

Yeah, that was sort of unstated element of that performance that makes it hit you on another level, I think

Well, it IS in a certain genre, and songs from within a genre do have a "style". Some could probably say the same about the blues-rockers / classic-rockers we like -- Cream, the Allmans, Clapton, Stones, the Who, even the Beatles
That wasn't her best song.....she only has 3 on You tube for some reason

In City Dreams - Robin Trower
Great song, and some good pix here too, including several of the phenomenally lovely Patricia Velasquez.
