Pokey LaFarge.....Country Swing

I never heard of this gang until it randomly came up while looking for something else.
Try em.





There's more if you like.

Check out some 'Asylum Street Spankers' if you dig this flavor.

Pokey is great!

a reply to: skunkape23Yes, similar rythems

Yep, that's cool. I love the genre mash-ups when they come from the soul.

Oh, I guess you don't like this. I didnt figure many people here would, just put it up for those who might. If you didn't like that one here is another one you will probably like even less.

hahaha - thanks - I did listen to it though. Always like to broaden my musical palette.

I was just light hearted and cheeky pointing to the other thread

its him singing heebeebeebee....etc at 0.59 that detracts. To me that sounds more country than blues. I like blues - country not so much




Now 1 for you.
I love certain sounds of Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance

This one not so much.

I like the middle eastern, south east asian stuff as well. The drone at the bottom, constant, centering. I found DCD through my kids. They had been into heavy metal for a while and I skipped most of that. Then they said, dad, listen to DCD and I put it off as well. Then one day I heard this glorious music coming from their room and found it was them and spent several years listening to them until I moved along.

That piece above comes from an album of highly original and creative imagination. I saw the guy who sings once and his tuvan throat singing is on a par of it's own. He modulates the twin tones coming out of his mouth with hand gestures much like a harmonica player does with their hands around the mouth harp. Much of the stuff in that album is based on the scale of a Scandinavian Alphorn.
