I'm working on a recording project (you can follow on Anchor, Cheap Flight), and find myself thinking about the litany of artists that have influenced my writing. It dawned on me that this is a journey I'd like to capture.
In this, Episode 4, I talk all about the masterpiece by Queen called Another One Bites the Dust, a song I first heard while on the field portion of a Track and Field event.
This is the first episode for Tonal Recall. The purpose is to highlight songs and artists in my listening experience to discover why I write the music I write. I heard "Don't Bring Me Down" when I was 9. I remember where I was and what I was doing. This song sounded like the future. And it has held up all this time, nearly 30 years later. Enjoy.
Here I am, only three episodes in, and taking liberties depart from my mission for this round to honor a great friend. Enjoy this tribute to Sweet Pea and a great track by Amos Lee with the same name.
In this 2nd episode of Tonal Recall, I (Lp) highlight the song (actually, musical piece and song) from the band Boston titled "Foreplay/Long Time." The 2:40 intro was written in 1969... yes, that means it turns 50 next year! And it moves me as much today as it did when I first experienced this piece. Listen in to find out how that happened.
