#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Janek Gwizdala - Mystery To Me (20th Anniversary Edition)(2024). This just popped up in my #AppleMusic recommendations, and it’s quite the banger. Note the linked OG release has a different track order. #jazzfusion #music youtu.be/6SLLdvRTM…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Thomas Dolby - Retrospectacle (1994). One of the few “Best of” albums I actually listen to. It’s not only a fantastic listen, but a meaty sampler of a good chunk of his body of work. #music youtu.be/6gQFbiItw…

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Nik Kershaw - You’ve Got to Laugh (2006). A darling of the UK’s #NewWave and #Synth #Pop genres, Nik took five years to roll out this personal, more #PowerPop oriented and personal album. Riddled with his excellent guitar work, as well. #music www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Level 42 - 1980-2010 30th Anniversary World Tour (2010). I’ve said it before, but Mark King is a beast on the bass and the band is tight AF. Just a fantastic show. #music www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Soul Coughing - El Oso (1998). I was rollin’ to Soul Coughing long before I knew about Mike Doughty, his story, and his success at clawing his life and art back. I’m only playing this now because he’s reconciled with his former bandmates. #music www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Jason Falkner - Can You Still Feel (1999). Falkner is IMO a brilliant multi-instrumentalist and #PowerPop #ProgressivePop #Rock master craftsman I first discovered on The Grays one and only album. He was Beck’s guitarist, as well. #music www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Squeeze - Babylon and On (1987). I’ve enjoyed Squeeze for decades but find that I never listen to them enough. Great album. #music www.youtube.com/watch

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Paul Gilbert - Vibrato (2012). Extraordinary guitarist and very funny guy, immediately notable on tracks like “Enemies (in jail)”, “Vibrato”, and “Atmosphere on The Moon”. www.youtube.com/watch #music #rock #hardrock

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Dream Theater - Black Clouds & Silver Linings (Special Edition)(2009) This epic album features four tracks that clock in at over 12 minutes and a fantastic cover of Queen’s Tenement Funster/Flick of the Wrist/Lily of the Valley. #progrock #progmetal #music

#NowPlaying @ Nothing Manor: Progger - Scattering (2016). #ProgressiveJazz #JazzFusion #Jazz Progger is a colloquial term for a person who is a fan of progressive music and also a great band. www.youtube.com/watch
