It is a gloomy week in NH as well. I don't mind all of that much but want to see the sun soon.
...another grey day song...This one from Jesse Colin Young. I used to play the flute so I like this one.

Here is old Neil Young singing to honor Gordon Lightfoot. Kind of heartwarming

Let's make a deal. Within reason, perhaps we can revisit favorite artists and songs already posted.
I am guilty of reposting stuff I suspect may have gone under the radar because, a] you guys might have missed it, and/or b] you don't like it. Which is probably the case.
C'est la vie, mon ami.
Deal?

Yes, she's annoying, but I'm workin' a theme, people,

This has nothing to do with my lil' theme show, though with weather like this, you might want to spend your days in bed.
I just discovered whilst looking for another video. It's fantastic, reminding of Richard Linklater's Waking LIfe,

Gratuitously violent but one of my favorite "buddy movies," starring Samuel L. Jackson (Pulp Fiction) and one of my very favorites, Massachusetts native Geena Davis (Earth Girls Are Easy, The Fly, The Accidental Tourist -- for which she won a best supporting actor Oscar -- A League of Their Own, Thelma and Louise), directed by then husband Renny Harlin,
The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996), featuring

As someone who has always loved the idea of women playing the bass (Amee Mann, Suzy Quatro, Tina Weymouth, Kim Gordon), being it is an instrument even more dominated by the old boys club than the guitar, a woman in overalls playing an upright double bass is off the charts.

Meh. I know I'm going to sound like the stereotypical "I listened to them before anyone else did" music snob (which really, I'm not. Or, maybe sometimes. Well, most of the time.), but I much prefer the Steve Lillywhite years. His body of work, with U2 and others, just speaks to me. Not that I hate The Joshua Tree, it's one of the single most important albums of the last 50 years. However, I find it telling that when the album first came out, I put Red Hill Mining Town on a loop (isn't Side 2, Song 1 of most albums always excellent?), for it was and still is my favorite U2 song. I only found out later that it was the only song on The Joshua Tree produced by (you guessed it) Steve Lillywhite.

Speaking of women bass players
Great Molly and Billy performance.
Cool thing is both Esperanza and Molly went to Berklee.

Well, two for the seesaw.
I'm not that into U2.
I actually liked a lot of their earlier stuff, the Steve Lillywite stuff.
And heresy of heresies, though clearly one of the best albums of the 1980s (which reminds of the 80s but doesn't sound like typical 80s, and has aged well), The Joshua Tree is not a personal favorite. Achtung Baby is a great record, which, to me, was ahead of its time. Brian Eno co-produced. Surprise.
"One" is top five for me, and, again, "Even Better Than the Real Thing" predicts the culture we live in, or with, today. And that was over 30 years ago. A smashing great song, very well produced, alongside a cool video.
But, we like what we like. More than any of their recordings, I'm still partial to Under a Blood Red Sky, for various, illogical reasons.
