What are you listening to right now?


My favourite version. The first time I ever heard the song was UB40's version in my childhood - and I can't fµcking stand it. Or them, for that matter. I never knew it was a Neil Diamond song until 3 or 4 years ago, and I honestly think this version is better.

@Rick regarding the Fearless Flyers: My ghast has not been this flabbered for a long while. They're fantastic. And I need one of those guitar holders/stands.

That is a cool setup! My back would love it. That’s from the Madison Square Garden show… it’s a good watch when you have time.
 
First, I know the whole video was posted when this came out. But Lari's solo, for me, was just so perfect-she is truly amazing. I guess (hope) she gets the praise she deserves-I know she gets it on this forum, not sure about widespread recognition.
I have been playing guitar (electric anyway) for around 40 years-beginning I played mainly acoustic finger styles.
Anyway, imho their is NO BEST GUITAR PLAYER EVER-Just too many that are so good.
Recently for me, Guthrie Govan, Lari and Mateo Mancuso are in that special group among many, many other greats.

 

The Amiga was an incredible machine, provided the devs knew how to use the hardware's capabilities correctly - and those capabilities were definitely ahead of their time (for specifics on sound see "Paula" in the linked Wiki).

This has to be one of the greatest video game OSTs of all time, not just from a nostalgia perspective. First link is "just" the soundtrack, to marvel at Factor 5's 1991 masterpiece in its almost full glory, AL82 Retrogaming Lonplays has you covered! (Why almost? This emulated playthrough is more prone to slowdowns when there are lots of sprites on-screen, and while the A500 original also slowed down in two or three places (!), it's a more regular occurrence here. And you'll never get how fluid the scrolling was on a 50 Hz CRT when emulating.)

PS: Turrican 1 & 2 are also the games out of which Apogee ripped lots of assets for Duke Nukem 1 & 2 and they never really got called out for it.

These guys. It's Ray Alder (Fates Warning) with Mark Zonder (former Fates Warning drummer), Phil Bynoe (Steve Vai's bassist).

First album had a guy I'd never heard of, but really enjoyed. Second album has Simone from DGM and Nick Van Dyk from Redemption on guitars.

If you're into early 90's Fates Warning, these guys are awesome.



 
Can’t stop grooving to these guys. What the bass player and drummer do on minimal kit is impressive.



Oh wow, that's more or less Vulfpeck with Mark Lettieri! I need to check this out.

And I've been rocking the new Mamogi the last week or so.
