LCD-2, LCD-3, Owners and the Music They Love... - Page 9

Even better than Cupcake Royale, is Yellowleaf cupcakes downtown Seattle.  Small local business, owners are cool.  Blows away all others by a huge margin unless you are a huge icing fan.  Most cupcake makers give you way too much icing and not enough cake.  Cake to icing ratio is perfect at Yellowleaf.  

Cupcakes pair wonderfully with LCD

Interesting.  You guys know a lot more about who are the great piano players of past and present.  After getting the Koln concert I've been looking for another magical album by Jarret but haven't found it.  I've got some reading and listening to do....

Then I got schooled from a friend with the music of Red Garland, Ahmad Jamal, McCoy Tyner, Wynton Kelly, Tommy Flanagan, Thelonius Monk, Duke ellington and came to realize what Owen was talking about.

I'd also recommend, "Man About a Horse" and "Cho".

I'm a whore for frosting, but I'm always on the prowl for good sugar fixes.  I'll check'em out - thanks!  Man, cupcakes and LCD-2's.....how can you top that...maybe add sex on top of all that...yeah, that's it, cupcakes, LCD-2's and sex.  I can just hear the response from my wife when I walk into the bedroom with headphones on and a cupcake in my hand.  I don't think she'd share the same enthusiasm for the combo-pack.  Guess I'll just stick to cupcakes and sex for now. 

Here's another for the thread - great lyrics (you don't have to listen to them or read the subtitles, warriorant), and the kid can play the guitar and sing a tune or two....

If you'll guys like female vocalists, you'll should check out

Adele - 19 and 21

Natalie Merchant - Tigerlily and Retrospective 1995-2005

^^ Awesome on letterman. I just love Adele, such a smooth and comforting voice. I prefer to listen to solo vocals on my speakers rather than my LCD-2 lol.

  Agreed! Backing vocals on the album are credited to Nona Hendryx, Lay Low and Maddy Reid Clarke.  It does not specify by song. I love his two bluesy cuts on that album: "Penance Fire Blues" and "Sick Man Blues"   - Killer guitar on both.  Good stuff all'round.
 

Just listened to Man on a horse. Amazing! Perfect before hitting the sack.

I dont know why, but I like listening to Adele in my car, but when I play her through my rig, her voice/singing is irritating.

I agree with the Natalie Merchant though. Just listened to her 2 nights ago. Natalie merchant - live in concert.

Another good one along those lines is Alanis Morssette. Just listened to her 3 nights ago. Alanis Morssette - Unplugged

If we are going  with unplugged, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Eric Clapton were all sublime.

I will have to check out the Tony Bennett.
