And if you want amazing guitar work, listen to Lincoln Brewster . . . anything.
Are you serious? The sounds he make aren’t difficult; it’s just that most men wouldn’t WANT to make them. I found Lambert soulless, depthless, and with whose raw vocal talent wasn’t really all that. Drop a carp down Bruce Springsteen’s shorts, and he’ll make noises like that, too.
We watch Sons of Anarchy and you are right, that opening tune is great.
They actually have great music on that show. This is silly for me to talk about, but perhaps you know, or someone else will and it was really great. On one episode (this year probably, because there was a lot of Mexican stuff, but I could be wrong) opened with a very popular song (maybe a Dylan song? I’m really not sure - this is the silly part - if I wake up hubby he probably won’t remember either), but with the lyrics in Spanish, and it was great.
I’m annoyed now, that I can’t remember it, it just blew me away at the time.
I don’t know “Strike Back” at all, but I’ll look into Lincoln Brewster,hubby might know him. He’s a good deal more knowledgeable than me.
I’m one of those “i just know what I like” philistines.
But, you know, I like a lot of stuff, from a lot of areas/genres.
Right now we are very happily waking up to classical music on WQXR, for ages and ages “the radio station of the New York Times” which the Times dumped a while back and which is now a “public” radio station at the top of the FM dial. I guess the Times sold their premium spot.
But, it’s great to wake up to and I love it because it is what I grew up with. For my (very conservative) dad the sun rose & set on the front page of the Times (things have changed A LOT in the past 40 years and not for the better) and QXR was the ONLY station he’d permit.
Imagine how great was it when we got teenage babysitters right around 1965?
So, I’m rambling, but it’s all good, it all rocks!
