A "Jazz" Rendition of A Rock Song

This song is originally written by Kurt Cobain I believe. The band is "Magnetic Ear".  Found them on NPR and I hope  my good readers enjoy it. Turn the volume up friends.

Artist Shelby Lynne: Your Lies

This is Shelby Lynne, she isn't any "unknown" artist.  I found her watching Letterman this December (2011) and I just thought she was absolutely incredible.  Not many performers or entertainers can sing at this incredibly high level without a back-up band.  Some artists just strike you right at your heart, like the first time you hear Led Zeppelin or some people talk about the first time they heard Elvis.  Her voice just sears right through you.  I really cannot believe I didn't know about her the last 12 years.  She has one of the top 10 female voices I have heard in my life, honestly.

Introducing: "Alabama Shakes"

I actually found out about this band "Alabama Shakes" from a finance blog (who for the moment shall go unnamed, heh).  I am really quite impressed with the vocals, and the band is really solid as well. This tune is called "Hold On" and I really like it.  Their self-titled CD should be out soon. I encourage one and all to purchase it.

Music: Hindemuth

I got a lot of solid finance links saved up, but too lazy to put them up right now.  Suffice it to say, unless you see a really superb value out there, I would not be purchasing any stocks for the next 3 weeks.  Really it's dangerous time for equities (stocks) right now.  Do yourself a favor and wait some time.  In the mean time try to relax.  Here's some good music to pass the time. Part of Mathis De Maler Symphony. Hindemith conducting.  Turn it up loud dudes, so you can catch the nuances.
