I don't know why but this tune by Apes on Tapes has been in my head for the longest. I first heard this cut back in 2008 on Macedonia's "Both Sides of the Surface"
show. (ironic is that that episode was named, "Goodbye Summer, Have a
Great Fall." since is how I love Autumn) I showcased this track last
year but with all good things they have to come back around. Some of
these tracks you may have heard them in previous podcasts but it's good
to sometime to reach back and and refreshing course of great music. To
my new listeners...welcome; to my regular listeners...thanx and thanx again for coming back time and time and showing love for what I do.
Another artist I heard last year that I had to showcase their music is The Shanghai Restoration Project.
I love their music and rather if it's laid back or makes you want to
get up and dance (and I rarely do that...not that I don't want to
dance) it's refreshing and easy on the ears.
The cool thing about this selection is not only that most of the tracks are free downloads but the fact that these musicians get when it comes to getting their music to the masses. Sometimes in order to get huge returns you must be able to give a little away. I will never forget the 60 minute segment on The Grateful Dead. These guys are millionaires and what they did when it came to their music is the "sowing and reaping" effect. At their live concerts they gave the okay for their fans to record their concerts. To many groups would frown on this but this worked in their favor in two ways...
1) It was a concert so the people had already paid their money for seeing them in concert and plus it would give the people to have a piece of history so to speak to share with their friends, family.
2) Even though they were giving the green light to record their music(bootleg) many people still would end up going to the store and buying the studio recording of the Grateful Dead music.
I'm not saying you should never pay for great music because is that were the case i would never put links to these gifted artists sites because we now live in a day and age where it's okay to get crappy customer service and people feel it's okay to steal music and that is far what I advocate. I take the time to put information links in my show notes because I have the utmost respect for musicians...especially today because to be honest without the web, I think I would live off my own collection of music but not too much great music is played on the radio any more.
This collection of music on this episode is from artists that are creative, innovative, and gives you a sense of "yes...great music still lives."
As always, kick back, relax and take you some "me" for the next hour.
Be Blessed.
