Been in a quirky mode lately. Listening to Kingston Wall and Ozric Tentacles....
 
It’s funny, I’ve been digging back into the 70s and real early 80s stuff (like pre Quiet Riot, Ratt, Dokken, etc) , been digging on Pat Travers, Molly Hatchett, Blackfoot, Aldo Nova, REO Speedwagon, Donny Iris, Billy Squire, Boston, Foreigner, Cheap Trick, Aerosmith (Rock in a Hard Place !), Joe Perry Project, Journey pre Jonathon Cain, Kansas, Pat Benatar (when she rocked), Queen, Rainbow, Robin Trower, Triumph, and Y & T pre Summertime girls.
 
Y & T was one of the first 'outside the box' bands I listened to when I was 14...a buddy who was showing me some things on guitar used to play the whole "Mean Streak" album front to back. Great stuff.
 
I recorded the MTV Y&T Friday night concert and watched it A LOT. Meniketti is a badass. That whole band was awesome.
 
Fucking KILLER album ! Great songs, great production, great playing.
 
in all seriousness I have been listening to VH a lot since Ed died. I never really got the hype of the band given I am 49 so missed the early stuff. 1984 was my intro album so Jump and Panama were the first things I heard and while I liked those I didn't really "hear" what the band was. I tried a few times over the years to get into them but just couldn't, but after Eddie died I really thought I owed it to myself to see what was up... I can happily say I now "get it"..what a bloody great band musically, so tight, so unique and I finally get what it was that Dave bought to the band. Pretty happy to be able to say I am now a Van Halen fan.... Have listen to Ratt really since a year or so after Infestation came out though haha

I often try to get into more modern rock but man there is just something missing...well apart from Red Dragon Cartel but I guess that doesn't really count hahaha

Am happy to say that after 30years of not really listening to much sabbath I can now listen to them like it is new again ... such good shit
