If I Had My Way
I never tag; if you want to do this meme, following the directions above. OK?
Not a bad list there, Nick!
ReplyDeleteI beleive you're the first to put a live album on your list. I saw a PP&M concert on PBS many years ago, and they do seem to be one of those bands who feed off the energy of the crowd.
ReplyDeleteGood list. I would love to do this, but it looks too time consuming at this state of the semester. I don't know the code for putting in the music links--I use the classic blogger template and I won't change--when I do, I will probably get my own domain if blogging still remains as something I want to do.
ReplyDeleteA good live album is Ben Harper's Live at Mars--he also does a great live version with Eddie Vedder on Pearl Jam's song Indifference. I know I would include that song. Ben also does it live on his own.
You weren't kidding when you said yours would be a mixed genre!
ReplyDeleteGood stuff here. I would definitely enjoy a day of listening to your choices.
I like that Capella Gregoriana even though I didn't think that I would.
ReplyDeleteGreat choices Nick.
ReplyDeleteLike your picks!!

Nick Great post,I do not see how I could come up with any better one than you have.My Hats off to you mu friend.
ReplyDeleteKcinnova: Thank you! I rather wish that the list was 4 times as long.
ReplyDeleteThomas: I’ve been to four Peter, Paul, and Mary concerts. They used to play Louisville rather often: Mary is a Louisville native, you know.
Enemy of the Republic : Thank you! Creating a post like this isn’t difficult, just time consuming. It’s actually fun if I do a bit at a time over a few days. You can always do this meme without posting the graphics or the songs.
ReplyDeleteCarol: Nope, I wasn’t kidding. Actually I’d really like to add another genre or two, like classical and blues.
Lucky Owl: Thank you. I used to attend Mass at the Archabbey of Saint Meinrad which was about a 30 minute drive from my parsonage primarily for the chants.
ReplyDeleteAkelamalu : Thank you!
Pink: Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMike Golch : Thank you!
