Classic Case

Song: "Sub Rosa"
Artist: Classic Case
Album: Dress To Depress

This is one of those "album rock" bands that the modern rock genre sort of morphed into over the last several years. But for whatever reason, this band's music remains in my iTunes because it's really good....melodic yet heavy, and just plain good.

I Am a Rock

Song: "I Am a Rock"
Artist: Simon & Garfunkel
Album: The Essential Simon & Garfunkel

These guys were/are one of the most dynamic duos in pop music history. The melodies, lyrics and arrangements are timeless.

Digby

Song: "Too Late"
Artist: Digby
Album: Falling Up

This is one of those under the radar rock bands that just writes infectious-as-hell pop/rock stuff. I'm not sure what they are currently up to, but this album is full of really cool songs.

Help Me

Song: "Help Me"
Artist: Joni Mitchell
Album: Court and Spark

This was Joni Mitchell's big hit but she has a huge fan base in the folk world. Joni also has one of the most recognizable voices in pop music....it's a deep, sultry, jazz-tinged style of vocal and it's simply awesome.

Jay Johnson

Song: "Blind Faith"
Artist: Jay Johnson
Album: Yellow

I met this dude when I moved to Nashville and we did some work together and some shows together. Jay isn't making much music anymore, but he should be....dude is just so talented. This album is available on iTunes, so you should go grab it.

Lead Machine

Song: "Lead Machine"
Artist: The Film
Album: Rolling EP

It's kind of funny....I became a fan of this band a few years back after hearing this song on an online radio station, and went out and bought the EP and then reviewed it on Bullz-Eye.com. A few years later, I'm watching "American Idol" and find out contestant Michael Johns was the lead singer of this very band. I bet sales of this music spiked after that fact was leaked out to the press!

Overkill

Song: "Overkill"
Artist: Men at Work
Album: Men at Work: Super Hits

This song always reminds me of spring. Maybe it's because I remember it being released in the spring of 1983, but it also has a warm weather feel for whatever reason. Either way, this is one of my favorite Men at Work songs.
