#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Welcome To The Pleasuredome (1984). Trevor Horn’s presence, often replacing the band’s studio performances, is unmistakeable. Also, the only debut studio double-album I’m aware of. #music #newwave #pop #synthrock youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (1966). In honor of the passing of #BrianWilson, I’m throwing on one of the greatest albums of all time. Give a listen and take it in. Everyone should listen at least once in their lifetime. #music #progpop #artrock youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Poe - Haunted (Bonus Track Version)(2006). Blending #triphop, #hardrock, #poprock, dance, sampling, and her dead father’s audio letters to his children, Haunted creates an #altrock concept album that is very listenable. #music youtube.com/playlist

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Big Wreck - Albatross (Anniversary Edition)(2025). A reissue of 2012’s triumphant return after a decade since they disbanded, this new edition includes previously unreleased versions and material. #music #rock #canrock www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: GHS3 (2002) Frank Gambale (guitars), Stuart Hamm (bass), and Steve Smith (drums) duke it out with some blazing #JazzFusion from three titans of #JazzRock. Wear headphones for this one. #music www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: The B52’s - Whammy (1983) The first B52’s album I bought after hearing Legal Tender & Whammy Kiss on #KROQ. This tape got played a lot in my Walkman WM-10. Great album, top to bottom. #music #newwave #punk #rock #clubmusic www.youtube.com/watch

Steve Smith & Vital Information in the Musora studio performing Soundgarden's Blackhole Sun from their Superunknown album during a short session.

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Steve Smith & Vital Information - Blackhole Sun (2025 - Soundgarden cover). I’m shocked I hadn’t been recommended anything from the #Musora channel before. This is phenomenal, and stellar musicians. #music #jazzfusion #grunge www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Gary Moore - Live from Baloise Session (2025). Gary passed in 2011, but recorded this in 2008. Now it’s a new release. Enjoy. #music #blues #GaryMoore www.youtube.com/watch

4 Non Blondes was a great #rock band that only made one studio album and had the global hit What’s Up that lit the world on fire in 1993. It’s amazing that, to this day, that one song has remained in the cultural zeitgeist. #music #activism #LGBTQRights #LGBTQIAPlus www.salon.com/2025/05/2…
