New Old Music


I love discovering new music and even better -  discovering new old music,  You know the thing. Songs that have been around for years if not decades that you never really paid much attention to until suddenly you find yourself playing it over and over and over again just because of some movie or TV show.

Or at least you do if you're me.

Soul bluesy music it is it seems my latest fad with a touch of 70's pop.  Because you can never have enough of 70's music... even if it is a pop song.

There's a touch of James Brown with It's A Man's, Man's, Man's World a song that only someone like him could sing, all pleading cries and desperation and a beautiful soulful love song in the form of It's A Thin Line Between Love And Hate.  There's also two foot-tapping Stevie Wonder songs Higher Ground and Upright (Everything's alright) and two songs from the Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack, just because it's so awesome, really you should just check out the whole soundtrack but my 2 favourites are a boppy, feel good 60's tune Ain't No Mountain High Enough by Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell and a 70's pop/rock song Hooked On A Feeling which always puts a smile on my face.

And finally for something a little more modern there's the superbly bluesy rock song Blood On My Name by the Bright Brothers which I have been playing on constant replay.

So what new old songs have you discovered lately...
