Day 16 - A song with voice leading focus

Piano Fighter - #WarrenZevon

Along with every other accolade, WZ was a stellar pianist. He could beat the crap out of it but it still sounded sooo melodic.

Day 15 - A song with heavy brass presence

Detroit Rock City - #TheMightyMightyBosstones

Take a little while for the brass to really kick in, but when it does, you’ll never think about this #Kiss classic the same way.

Day 14 - A song with lo-fi sound

Breath from Another - #Esthero 🇨🇦

So many ways to describe this track (and album). It has a Lo-fi feel, among many other “feels”. One of my favourite tracks ever.

Day 14 - A song with reverb-heavy production

Intruder - #PeterGabriel

PG, a drummer himself, didn’t want cymbals on the album. #PhilCollins and producer #HughPadgham came up with this “gated reverb”. A classic album opener.

Uses the bass stringed instrument called a lirone (or lira da gamba). Cool.

When prog was prog. And epic. And when #SteveHackett and #PeterGabriel were in Genesis. Also epic.

Day 10 - A song with triplets

Natural Science - #Rush

Hey, I’m from 🇨🇦. And a drummer. So this is mandatory.

The 3:18 mark is where the triplets make you go, “Ok, that’s pretty slick…”.

You must go through a lot of tissues! lol

A very rich man who grew up a regular kid of working parents, whose talent and commitment led him to being a very rich man now. 😀

A great documentary from #CBCRadio 🇨🇦 on the airship tragedy that #BruceDickinson wrote about is attached below. Well worth a listen. And it ends with an excerpt from Empire of the Clouds.

A great tune to get the day going… the mighty #CheapTrick never lets ya’ down.
