Bach - just recorded some harpsichord using Ruckers 1628 in Auria Pro - and still enjoying the Niven jazz collection that was shared here recently.
thanks for the heads up @CalCutta! I like Atom Heart very much and didn't know about this collaboration.
hehe a friend of mine has been a big Atom Heart fan for years and it was almost comical when he'd go through all the random aliases and collaborations he's associated with
edit: here's his discogs page which shows what I'm talking about https://www.discogs.com/artist/519207-Uwe-Schmidt?noanv=1
The Band That Was Supposed To Be Huge in 1995, Urge Overkill.
Genius guitar work and the production on their two Geffen releases are a joy to sink into.
Yes! I think pretty much all his work and collaborations are tremendous.
Gregory Isaacs..
+2........ I remember this one from back in the day. I wonder if I still have it. hmmm......
'Alcatraz Disco' by Wiggy (the Gasman)
Genius - so much going on, on so many levels.

+3...........+5 if we're including canines, my two mutts love 'em. I need that bass drum sound from Earth Rocker. Deeply viscous & hits right where it hurts. Yum.
I listen to all kinds of music, but if I were to choose one artist who is important, but who a lot of people may not know much about, it would be Todd Rundgren.
His career started in the late 60s and has progressed through just about every style of music over the years, from British Invasion rock in the 60s, to soul piano ballads, to prog rock, to new wave … an A Cappella album in 1985 (the first album ever done one with just one voice and samplers) … new jack swing/rap, Gilbert and Sullivan, Broadway musicals, bossa nova music, The New Cars, Robert Johnson covers, Arena rock … all the way up to EDM and electronica of today. In addition to a prolific solo career, and releases with his bands the Nazz and Utopia, he has also had a career as a producer for a long list of major rock artists, including: Janis Joplin, The Band, The New York Dolls, Patti Smith, Grand Funk, Cheap Trick, Hall & Oates, XTC, Meat Loaf, The Tubes, The Psychedelic Furs, and many others.
If you don't know him you might start with his one of his most popular albums Something/Anything (which contained his biggest hits), or his 1973 masterpiece A Wizard A True Star (an album-length medley of short pieces in all different styles strung together). Or if today's sound is more your groove, check out his latest 2015 releases: Global (IDM) or Runddans (experimental album done in collaboration with Scandinavian electronica artists Lindstrom and Emil Nikolaisen).
+1 - Can only add that his skills as a guitarist are so overlooked. His playing on the song "Bat Out of Hell" is nothing short of inspired genuis – regardless of where you stand on the 'Loaf himself
I agree very much with @Lady_App_titude , when he's on form he's one of the best artists going. He can (as @eustressor said) also be an ace guitarist. His solos on 'Hirosima' (RA) and 'Caravan' are fantastic in my view.

They say he did that Bat Outta Hell motorcycle-sound guitar solo just off the cuff in one take!
Ha! For years I heard that Meat Loaf stuff and never knew it was Todd on guitar and his band Utopia doing the backing tracks.
Been listening to Todd since the mid 70's and he's always been a favorite of mine. I understand he dropped focus on the guitar because he didn't want to be labeled as strictly a guitar wizard, which I appreciate him taking that route. Something/Anything is among my favorite albums. I believe he produced the entire album and played everything except where he had other musicians on side 4 (double album set.) In addition to the others @Lady_App_titude mentioned, I think Liars is a great album too.
A couple of years ago I had the pleasure of doing a remix of a Todd Rundgren track called Collide-A-Scope. It also includes samples from about a dozen other Todd/Utopia tracks from his catalog.
As an Amiga guy I know him as the Video Toaster promo video guy.
Halcyon by Orbital.... at the moment.
All of these threads eventually lead back to the Video Toaster, I always find.
Listening to Canada's Junior Boys this morning. I'd never heard of them but a friend convinced me to go see them Saturday. Thoroughly digging it.
Re-re-re-re...discovered The Clash's LONDON CALLING about a week or so ago. Can't stop listening to it ... again. The universe was in perfect sync for me to hear that record when it came out. I'm sure I wasn't the only one.
Ironically, I was just reading this: http://daily.redbullmusicacademy.com/2016/02/junior-boys-feature
Cool article
I first heard it a few months ago. I thought I would go through the Top 50 album lists hanging around and get to know the things I missed. The variety on that album is amazing. So many reverberations from that point. Always wild to hear birthing points.
You were not Sir. AND we lived by the river.
Currently mainly one album each of Whitechapel, Black Dahlia Murder, Black Tongue and as always, Meshuggah, then repeat the cycle, but swapping out an album here and there. It all makes sense as I'm into a period of writing dark ambient stuff with electronic beats. Or something.
Over the years, I find this to be one of the most important things when hearing a new band. Sometimes you hear something and it does nothing for you. A few things in your life change, perhaps you listen to some other new things and the next time you hear the same something it's suddenly your favorite thing ever. I can think of several personal examples of this but VU is probably the biggest. Could not stand the sound of Lou Reed's voice for more than a decade. Then, one day I found myself scouring Ebay for live bootlegs.
But...But...But.... Where's Nile? And Carcass?
Time for some Carcass and Volbeat...............
Hey Professor, I still haven't wholly forgiven you for dumping Will Oldham in my lap and telling me to suck on that boy, see how you like it. Or maybe I just hate myself a little for being so easy to size up...
I guess a simple thank-you would have done the job.
Ennio Morricone The Hateful Eight in an unhealthy, almost disturbing, repeat
Calibro35 has been what I've been listening besides random things on Spotify.
@JohnnyGoodyear glad it worked out! Have delved into his other stuff (which is basically more of the same with different monikers) like Palace, Palace Music, Palace Brothers, Bonnie Prince Billy...
Tonight's work session was a split between Stereolab and Boris Karloff reading Just So Stories.
