Had a bit of trouble choosing an artist for this week’s episode of BYOBO. The list of possibilities is endless and I’ve been doing some prep work on a couple so have a couple close to complete. Ultimately though I decided to go with The Who.
The Who – Quite possibly the world’s most perfect rock & roll band. They did it all – singles, jingles, anthems, rock operas, and more. In the studio and on stage – they always delivered the goods.
So once again inspired by Nat at Mini-Obs, the idea is the same as always:
Pick one of your favorite bands / artists and list 10-15 songs by that band / artist to compile your own best of compilation.
Lights Out / UFO
big seventies rock
full of classic Schenker jams
epic “Love to Love”
Nice lo-fi hotel version of the Paul Simon classic by Jackie Greene:
Fair Warning / Van Halen
Classic Eddie riffs
Dave, as always, being Dave
VH in their prime
Stellar stuff from The Allman Brothers Band.
