#TodaysListening: Absolutely underrated Daryl Hall & John Oates song from an underrated album. I crank this one up every time I hear it. My only criticism is that it's too short. I could listen to that riff for five more minutes! #HallandOates youtube.com/watch?v=IqUWje…

#TodaysListening: On the #anniversary of #JrWalker's death in 1995, enjoying one of my favorite Motown Records hits. Probably the most unheralded #Motown hitmaker. 11 Top 40 hits, 21 on the R&B, including two number ones! youtube.com/watch?v=x5gYBB…

#TodaysListening: Enjoying this Ace Records comp. This music was everywhere growing up: school dances, radio, #MTV. Didn't appreciate it then, but it brings back memories of carefree days and grade school crushes. Was in love with #LisaLisa back in those days.

#TodaysListening: Picked up the #50thAnniversary edition of this Grateful Dead album. First time owning a physical copy. Great album. Real change of direction that aged well. #WakeoftheFlood #JerryGarcia #PhilLesh #BobWeir #BillKreutzmann #RobertHunter youtube.com/watch?v=B4k9Xf…

#TodaysListening: Nothing excites me more than listening to new old R&B from the 1950s. Picked up this out-of-print Ace Records #JohnnyOtis compilation. Some real great #WestCoast stuff here. #MidnightintheBarrelHouse youtube.com/watch?v=zzgkEI…

#TodayListening: Bob Dylan's #GointoAcapulco was a forgotten #BasementTapes track for a long, long time. When you here #CalexicoandJimJames' performance from the #ImNotThere soundtrack, makes you wonder why #BobDylan youtube.com/watch?v=GwdWH-…

#TodaysListening: This incredible Ace Records collection of 1950s/60s #JohnnyOtis radio transcriptions and performances is an absolute time capsule. It's like being transported to the 1950s L.A. R&B scene.

On Dionne Warwick's birthday, I'm enjoying this set from SoulMusicRecords-SMR. It features her output at the Warner Bros. label from 1972-77. This extended version of "We Need to Get Back" written by #AshfordandSimpson is an incredible slice of early 70s soul. youtube.com/watch?v=yPtHSn…

#TodaysListening: Third Eye Blind. youtu.be/ejRne49kbGU?si…

#TodaysListening: I'd never really sat down and listened to the #SouthernRock group #LittleFeat. Quality 1971 debut. Wasn't blown away on my first listen, but I never trust those. Will press on with their second LP soon enough. youtube.com/watch?v=kLI5xF…
