Texas Paisley Pick

Similar to the Paisley Pick, these are all paisley songs from Texas based bands. Easy enough. Texas has a very good record with a variety of music. All genres of  music comes out of Texas. Psychedelic Paisley is no exception. Probably the most famous is the 13th Floor Elevators, but The Bubble Puppy and Fever Tree should be up there. Listen to these tracks and find out more about each band, because there are a lot of connections to other music and other bands in here. Like who was in the Moving Sidewalks? Notice the cover. It's similar to the rest of the series, but different.

Paisley Pick 6

By now you either hate me or love me for these reposts of Paisley Picks. Notice that I got over the long tracks, nothing as long as seven minutes here. I know there are plenty more to cover even after this, so if you have a favorite that I missed, Please tell me in the comments, because I know there will be another volume eventually. Volume seven and eight will be here, but first we'll visit Texas (tomorrow). And go back and look for the Garage series because they are posted. And soon after will be the Acid Rock series.

Paisley Pick 5

Coming to the home stretch. Less tracks on this volume, because I left some long tracks to this pick. Of course Iron Butterfly I had to pick the "real" almost 18 minute version, but also the Jefferson Airplane, Lemon Pipers and Rainy Day tracks that all clock in at around ten minutes or so. I love these kind of tracks because it allows the full scale of the Paisley to come through on this repost. A couple of newer tunes and one that could be in Bubblegum Pop, but still crosses the Paisley barrier. Notice the added paisleys = 5.

Paisley Pick 4

We're getting to volume four of this series. As you can tell they mostly all fall into the same category if you go by sound or feeling of a song. You'll notice again the playlist cover. And notice that a couple of the bands are returning on some of the volumes. Remember these are not picked because of significance in the Paisley world, although many are significant. But just because I like them. Look for the next couple more in the next couple more days.

Paisley Pick 3

We continue on in this series of Paisley Picks. This is three of six. By now you probably caught on to the fact that the covers have growing number of Paisleys. Kind of related is the Make Love Not War series that I posted last year. And that I may post again in February with new links. Check that out to see how I classify these differently. Sometime I may have to do an update in this series with some of the newer Paisley tracks. It's funny how it just comes back every now and again. And it's time for a revival.

Paisley Pick 2

Continuing on with the Paisley pick series, you probably figured out that each has some old and some newer psychedelic psongs. That's because this pick has more to do with the sound rather than the era. Also begin to notice the difference in each cover. If you didn't pick up number one, look back a day. And stay tuned for the next few. Go back several days and compare to the Garage picks 1-3. Any similarities?

Paisley Pick 1

Paisley to me is a sound of certain psychedelic songs. They overlap a lot with garage and psychedelic pop. I get that this is mainly a 60's kind of thing, but all through out the decades since, good stuff has come out. Backwards guitars, far out lyrics, echo etc help me to sort out this Paisley pick from the Hippie and Garage and Acid Rock. I hope you enjoy all six of these discs, reposted with love. Several decades of stuff will be mixed in the classic.

Garage Pick 3

The last of the series so far. All Garage picks. Total so far is 90 tracks. Starting with the Fall. As garage as you can get. The Sonics and the Troggs etc. But  also The Cramps which arguably could be garage, but also psychobilly. This track seems more garage, though. Some old, some new. And some at the edge of psychedelic. Chocolate Watch Band, Seeds fit there, too. Again all of these Graage tracks could also fit elsewhere. Tell me where you think this went.

62 The Fall - Totally Wired

88 The Outsiders - Time Won't Let Me

89 Five By Five - Fire

90 Jay Reatard - See-saw

Garage Pick 2

Continuing from yesterday's Garage pick it's volume two. Some newer, but mostly older tracks and several that I find could be Psychedelic tracks. Is Count Five garage or pyschedelic? Cyrkle? Seeds? It just depends on the song and the sound of the song. I tend to put backwards guitar into Paisley, but these fit in here, too. And I think Garage and Punk and Paisley all fit together anyway. You have to help me decide if I picked properly or not. I'm easily amused, so the covers are funny to me. Nothing to do with the music and not even the same kind of garage's that these bands mostly played in or practiced in.

Garage Pick 1

Ok, this is the beginning of a three volume pick of Garage music, so far. To me there is an overlap of Garage and Psychedelic and Punk and there are some differences. I doubt that I am keeping with all of those arbitrary lines, but I do have them. Hopefully after a three volumes, you will be a little clearer, and if you are, please explain it to me. I have trouble articulating them. Also I am adding songs from many years, not just the 60's or 70's. To me it's not a year, but a feel. I could have sworn I already uploaded thiese here before, but I can't find a trace of it, so here it begins.

Bee Gees Maurice Gibb Pick

The Maurice version of these Bee Gees picks is pretty interesting. Maurice wasn't often the lead singer on most of the Bee Gees tracks. But he did get a few and I have nine of them picked here. One of my favorites is Lonely Days. He did do a lead on a track on the Sgt. Peppers soundtrack. That's here too. He was married to Lulu and after their divorce (years after) he did a duet with her that was quite nice. That's on here. He also formed a supergroup during one of the Bee Gees hiatus(es) or is it hiati? No idea, so let's call it a break. That supergroup was called The Fut (look them up). Their only single was a very Beatles sounding song called Have You Heard The Word. What sounds like John Lennon is really Maurice. Very cool song.

Bee Gees Maurice Gibb Pick

01 Bee Gees - On Time

02 Bee Gees - Lonely Days

03 Maurice Gibb - Solitude

04 Bee Gees - Islands In The Stream

14 Bee Gees - Angel Of Mercy

15 Maurice Gibb - I've Come Back

16 Maurice Gibb - Hold Her In Your Hand

17 Bee Gees - Country Woman

18 The Fut - Have You Heard The Word

Bee Gees Robin Gibb Pick

This is the last of the Bee Gees solo pick. This one is Robin Gibb. Similar makeup, but I left out a duet. He had a decent one on the Time Square soundtrack with Marcy Levy and I liked that soundtrack. But I just cut it. I did put on the one track from the Sgt Peppers soundtrack. Several of his solo tracks and many of his lead tracks with the Bee Gees. Notice that a lot are pre-Saturday Nite Fever. Several of my favorite Bee Gees tracks like How Can You Mend A Broken Heart, and I Started a Joke and I've Gotta Get A Message To You are on here. All great Robin lead songs.

Bee Gees Robin Gibb Pick

01 Bee Gees - I've Gotta Get A Message To You

13 Bee Gees - Really And Sincerely

14 Robin Gibb - Boys Do Fall In Love

15 Bee Gees - Odessa

16 Bee Gees - Holiday

17 Robin Gibb - Juliet

18 Bee Gees - I Started A Joke

Bee Gees Barry Gibb Pick

Looking at the Bee Gee's songwriting pick and going over all the amazing hits each one of the Bee Gees had, It was inevitable that I do a pick on each one. This is Barry. I took some solo stuff and duets with Barbra Streisand and interspersed some Bee Gees tracks where he was the principle singer or songwriter. And one from the Sgt Pepper's soundtrack (perhaps I was the only one who liked that movie and soundtrack). Note that almost every Bee Gees track has all three of the boys singing, But the lead went to one of them on most of the tracks. You'll notice that Barry has more of the hits in the late seventies and eighties as lead. For some reason his falsetto was more of a draw on radio. Contrast those Bee Gees songs with his solo stuff and his earlier tracks like Spicks & Specks. You can tell the difference.

Bee Gees Barry Gibb Pick

01 Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven

02 Barry Gibb - Shine Shine

03 Bee Gees - To Love Somebody

17 Barbra Streisand with Barry Gibb - Guilty

18 Bee Gees - Love So Right

Barry Fanilow (I Arrange The Songs)

I admit that Barry Manilow is a guilty pleasure for me. I have his albums, I watched his shows. I even know his VSM (Very Strange Medley) of his commercials. And I thought he wrote all his songs. After all he's got a song called I Write The Songs, which surprise, surprise is written by Bruce Johnston. I found several tracks that he did not write and are totally considered Barry Manilow songs, but really he's just a fan. Hence: Fanilow. I ordered the pick like this: First the songwriter's version of the song, then if there was an interesting cover of the song and then the Manilow version. When you listen to them like this, it turns out that Manilow is a great Arranger of songs. It's obvious that he's changed them and for the better. Not just his voice. I still like the songs he did write. I like these for another reason. Listen for the changes, very cool. Pomeranz wrote Trying To Get The Feeling Again for the Carpenters, but they did it later. Batdorf & Rodney had a minor hit before Manilow got to it.  Bunny Walters used the original name of the Scott English track and had a hit. Manilow changed it because Looking Glass had a hit out at the same time. I have a hard time hearing the original because I'm so used to changed one.

Kenny Nolan Pick

I have always really liked Kenny Nolan's hit I Like Dreamin' and that's all I knew about him. Great song, but that's all I knew. Imagine to my surprise that he's a darn good songwriter and has written or cowritten a bunch of really good tracks for a variety of other artists. Plus he's been in a band as well as his solo stuff. This is a sampling of my pick of Kenny Nolan. I was pleasantly surprised about all of it. Like the Labelle track was originally done by his band The Eleventh Hour which also had some minor disco hits that are pretty decent. One of my favorite tracks from Disco-Tex and Frankie Valli. Plus Linda Carr, Tavares, Atlantic Starr and the Deele? A wide gamut of artists, not always their biggest hit, but many fairly big hits. I picked some from his solo work, his band and those hits for others. Sorry, Kenny, I just didn't know.

What's The Connection? Eyes 1

The Blue Eyes connection was yesterday if you missed it, but this series of Eye connections is irrespective of color. Although there are two Blue Eyes songs, two Green Eye songs, one Pink Eye song and one Brown Eye song. The rest of the eyes are lying, big, tear-filled, etc. So I do not include it in the color series and eventually I will make an eye connection for each color (if I have enough to support it). I do have enough just eye songs to make a few connections so you will get those for sure. I really like the Suburban Lawns, but probably the least known song on this list. I worked as a busboy, a waiter and a bartender for years. So I am very familiar with the Flamingos and Frankie Valli's songs. "Eyes" would be replaced with "Ice" to amuse ourselves and the drunk people. And, yes, I would sing it. To everyone's consternation.

What's The Connection? Eyes 1

01 Billy Idol - Eyes Without a Face

02 Flamingos - I Only Have Eyes For You

17 Ultravox - Dancing With Tears In My Eyes

18 Van Morrison - Brown Eyed Girl

19 Jackson Browne - Doctor, My Eyes

20 Sugarloaf - Greeneyed Lady

What's The Connection? Blue Eyes

This connection started with the colors series. There were so many Blue Eyed songs, that I separated them out. But I also found a bunch of songs just about eyes. Tomorrow I will just do the Eye connection, this is the Blue Eye connection. Very little doubles between the two. I do use the REM version of the Velvet Underground song Pale Blue Eyes here, but tomorrow you'll get the original. And I use The Who on both. A great song, so I do not apologize. I will get to more eyes later. I do have to confess that the David Byrne song is not really about Blue Eyes (I should have used CSN&Y.) Sorry. Also, very similar covers, but slight differences. The eyes are slightly bluer here than tomorrow. I made the brown eyes, blue. LOL! I crack myself up. It takes so little.

What's The Connection? (Something) Dance

I started a Dance connection some time ago (click here for dancing and also dancer). This happened during the making of those. Types of dance, more importantly anything and dance in the title. Except for Last Dance which I hope to post sometime this year. The Kate Bush track has parentheses after, but I allowed it. Bauhaus had two words before the dance, but they were part of one thing, so I allowed that. If it was one word but dance was the end of that word, I allowed it. I have a volume two almost lined up, but not quite ready. I was lazy with the cover, maybe I will fix that in volume two, but probably not. If I do I will post both in that post.

Workout Class Sexy

One more of the workout class picks. See yesterday for more of a story, but this one is all sexy songs. An hour of workout songs to make you feel sexy when you really should be feeling sweaty. I don't know what I was thinking when I made these other than most people (not me) feel sexier when they have worked out or are working out. Endorphins and all that. I forget what that's like so I am skeptical again. But it's about an hour, it starts with a warmup and builds intensity. And it's somewhat silly (I mean Sexy) to sing along as you work out to these songs. C'mon you sexy people!

Workout Class Rock

I don't workout enough, in fact this past year or so, barely at all. I have had multiple reasons for it, but this year is a new year and I am not letting it stop me anymore. Of course at the beginning of the year we always plan to work out and it slowly drops as we go along. But this year I am posting up a few of my hour long workout compilations. I actually made these years ago, when I had a friend who ran a fitness center. They were for her classes. This pick of workout music is all Rock and Roll. A couple of stretching warmup songs and the rest just builds, I have a few more and I will post them soon, but enjoy this one for awhile. Great for any kind of class workout. Look for my Pound workout pick, too. After I post them all, I don't think they are popular enough to make new ones, but let me know if I am wrong.

What's The Connection? Dirty 2

I have more of these coming. Dirty songs are always in fashion, I guess. Volume one of the Dirty connection is there and it has a link to the Dirt one. A few covers in here. There's something about Leslie Gore covering AC-DC that's very satidfying. And the balls on Mandre. He has one of my favorite disco tunes, but to cover Zappa? And make it disco? That's got to take some guts. Frankly it's pretty good. Otherwise a wide variety from funk to country rock to jazz and everything inbetween. It all sounds like something dirty.

Bee Gees Songwriters

There are plenty of compilations out there of the Bee Gees, but this pick is one I made about The Bee Gees as songwriters. These are all songs that other artists did, but the Bee Gees wrote. Some that they did later (or maybe released later). The only one that I know was originally made for Andy Williams, but they kept it was How Can You Mend A Broken Heart. Although Andy did cover it much later, one of the first covers is by Al Green and I like that version. Otis Redding was the supposed person they wrote the song To Love Somebody for, but he died before having the chance to record it. The Flying Burrito Brothers do a passably good job on it anyway. They did do versions of the Tavares tune, theYvonne Elliman tune, the Samantha Sang tune, but they weren't released until later after those artists had their shot with it. Great singers, but also great songwriters. And this is just a sampling of that talent. I did make a couple more comps but divided by who was the one of the three that had the main vocal or writing/influence on each song (plus some solo stuff). So one comp for Barry, one for Maurice, one for Robin. I'm not sure I will post those, unless there is someone who wants them?

Bee Gees Songwriters

01 Celine Dion - Immortality

02 Barbra Streisand - Woman In Love

03 Samantha Sang - Emotion

Beatles Rockin'

The Beatles are sort of sancrosanct. Leave them alone. And yet yesterday and today I have two picks of their stuff. I can't help it. They don't have these available, so I had to make them. Yesterday was the weirder stuff asnd today it's the more rockin' tracks. The ones I think of when I think of Rock and Roll and this band. I'm sure we can argue all day about my choices on either day and someone will be sure to suggest something else instead of these, but it's my pick. These are th eones I chose. I am interested to hear what you think however. So let me have it in the comments. Here I could use only one track from each of them in their solo work. The rest had to be the band. I think I struggled the most with the solo stuff. Trimming to one was hard. I only knew for sure that track, 5, 10 and 21 had to be in for me.

Beatles Rockin'

01 Beatles - Come Together

02 Beatles - Helter Skelter

03 George Harrison - Wah Wah

Beatles Weirdest

I do not think I have ever seen this anywhere. I picked the weirdest Beatles songs. But I had some rules. Even though I love the sound collage stuff like Revolution 9 and some of the crazy amazing tape stuff from John and Yoko, that was off the table. Couldn't use it. It had to be a song by the Beatles or a solo Beatle, that just was a bit weird or strange or off base. Nothing from Yoko, nothing from Linda, etc. I was expecting a lot of John, but really it ended up being more Paul. I found at least one of each solo, a few Beatles tracks and frankly the rest was Paul. I left a few on the table, including the one track yesterday. I hope you like this one. I did make another compilation of their most rockin' songs that is a bit more traditional (or less strange) and maybe I will post that tomorrow. But I like this one better.

Beatles Weirdest

01 Beatles - I Am The Walrus

02 Beatles - What's The New Mary Jane

21 Paul McCartney - Check My Machine (Full Length Version)

What's The Connection? Secret 1

I have a feeling, just between you and me, that this could be an ongoing series of connections. There are so many different songs about secrets. I'm actually even trying to get enough to make one volume be about secret agents. Leave me a comment if you know any versions I may not know. Any for me there were just a couple of songs that automatically popped out for me, without thinking. The first may be my favorite and that's the Half Japanese track. OMD is up there and so are Until December and the Jefferson Airplane. I know most people are probably not fans of the McCartney track, but I love it when he gets all "weird" like that. I made a compilation of Weird Beatles (solo and together) and didn't include this track, but a whole bunch more. I can't remember if I posted it before or not. I don't think so. Comment if you want me to.

What's The Connection? Secret 1

01 Yello - Le Secret Farida

02 My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult - Dirty Little Secrets

17 Dream 6 - Secret Life

18 Frank Zappa - Variations On The Carlos Santana Secret Chord Progression

19 Lee Scratch Perry - Secret Laboratory (Scientific Dancehall)

Panned 2

This is part two of this pick. All songs that have some sort of stereo effects (panning from side to side) that sound great when you wear headphones. Panned 1 explains a bit more. I had quite a bit left over from the first one and I did get some great recommendations in the comments. I used a bit of both in this one and volume three will use even more. I really do read the comments and check out the tracks you recommend. So do leave some good ones. Anyway here's volume two of this. Pretty easy to add 60's psychedelic tracks, they usually have some cool effects. But my favorite is the Velvet Underground where the effects do not really move. They are just panned left and right. I once had a classroom assignment where I had to tell a story. So I memorized that one and my class and the instructor did not know what to do with me. Storytelling class. Very fun, but I didn't get a good grade. Too bad, because I liked the class and I learned from the class. The professor was a blowhard and would never get fired because he had tenure.

Panned 2

15 Faces - Around The Plynth

16 Pink Floyd - Interstellar Overdrive (Stereo)

17 Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Let It Ride

28 Tame Impala - Mind Mischief

29 The Postal Service - Such Great Heights

New Old Soul 1

I haven't a clue about sub genres. Sometimes it just seems made up. And this Pick is exactly that a made up sub genre: New Old Soul. Basically, for me, it means newer artists making soul music that sounds like old time soul from back in the day. I feel like an old man just saying that. Get off the lawn you whipper snappers! But some call some of these just soul or R&B or Neo Soul, or Retro-Soul. I have no idea what distinguishes one from the other, so I just put the ones I liked. It's number one, because it's the first one in what could be an infinite number of these eventually. Just depends on who keeps making songs like these and do I like them. Let me know if you have some songs that I should listen to.

New Old Soul 1

01 D'Angelo - Brown Sugar

02 Black Joe Lewis - Bitch, I Love You

03 John Legend & The Roots - Compared To What

Disco (Mirror) 8

This might be the last one in this series. I know there are several disco songs that I haven't picked yet that would fit, but I am kind of not thinking of them at the moment as great choices to play (and that I have played or danced to). So unless I get some crazy bug to do more (like you give me a reminder of a disco tune that I just have to put on another one of these. This will be the last, at least for now. Yesterday I added Mirror Ball and it had a link to previous versions of this. I probably shouldn't have put the Michael Jackson on this one, but I did. I already felt a bit weird adding the Pointer Sisters and ABBA, but it's worth it to get Cerrone and Idris Muhammad and some of the other lesser known disco club hits that I did include. Hope you like them.

Disco (Mirror) 8

90 Pointer Sisters - I'm So Excited

91 Mr. President - Coco Jamboo

92 Scotch - Disco Band (12 inch version)

99 ABBA - Voulez-Vous

100 Cerrone - Give Me Love

101 Phreek - Weekend (12 inch Extended Version)

Disco (Mirror) 7

I put this on the side for awhile, not because I didn't have enough songs (I have plenty to Pick from), but because I couldn't decide what to put on. I almost put on a special mix from the Bee Gees, but remembered that I said no Bee Gees on this series. A few big names on here. A couple of nice long mixes. Go back to Disco (Mirror) 6 to see some of the others I have on these comps. I especially like the Sky stuff, which should remind you of Earth, Wind & Fire since its related to Don Myrick. And several tracks that you probably don't know unless you were in Discos back in the day.

What's The Connection? Cookies

Always around this time of year a few things happen. We eat a lot of holiday cookies, we bake a bunch and people bring them to work and we end up eating a ton. At the same time it's almost the end of the year so we think about setting goals. One of those goals usually also is that we feel guilty about eating all those cookies and so we make it a goal to eat better. That usually means no more cookies, or limited cookies. So before you set that goal I wanted to give you a last plate of cookies. This connection. Make it your cookie day today. Let me know in the comments about your favorite cookies to eat (and to bake) sometimes those are the same, sometimes not.

What's The Connection? Sick Types

I started working on this connection some time ago. I got Covid and there's a whole story about that on some other post and it was still early before anyone really knew if it would be a pandemic or not and before anyone really understood if it was going to be very deadly to all people or not. I still think I lived because I was too stupid to figure out that I probably should have gone to the hospital. Got yelled at for that. But I had all the symptoms and I was what would be later called the at risk section of society. But there weren't many songs specifically about covid 19, but I did find all sorts of other types of things you could get. It's not about the type of people who get sick, but the types of sicknesses. For more click on Sick. I've had a couple of them. Pneumonia, Flu's, Cancer and diseases of the band, yes. Luckily no heart attacks or anthrax poisoning or asthma. You could probably do a whole Pneumonia connection on it's own, but I just put in a couple. I hope you enjoy these (the songs, not the diseases).

What's The Connection? Sick Fever 2

The last thing we want is to get sick at the beginning of the year. So happy new year's day and I hope you are not sick with a fever. But if you are, or if you get a fever later this year, at least you will be armed with two connections of Fever songs. Volume one was a month or so ago. Here is the feverish link. And today is volume two. I like them both. This one does not have anything on fire, although you may feel like you are on fire with a high enough fever. Cool down, drink liquids and talk to your doctor. Also Soft Kitty helps. One of my favorites on here is Brian Eno's version of Fever and the Sylvers track right after it., but enjoy all of them. You can't enjoy Fela Kuti, but he's coming later.
