When you discover new old music!

Don't you just love it when music just hits you right between the legs, but don't you just hate it when it has been there all along?

Listening to Magpie Salute on spotify and then on comes the radio mix where they try to match up music that is related to what you were listening to.  On comes this dirty blues sound, a band called North Mississippi Allstars.  Wow what a sound, so glad I heard this band.  Then I find out they have been around since '96 and the guitarist was in the Black Crowes!!

Really cool, if you like early Black Keys and dirty blues then I highly recommend these guys...

The first NMA album is pretty classic stuff. Is it as long ago as 96? Wow

Not got that far back yet. Just listening to World Boogie - pretty funky stuff. Looking forward to going backwards!

Shake Hands With Shorty was released in 2000, I haven't lost four years of my life then! Phew.

I've only recently got into Skid Row.They where probably overshadowed by GnR in my case back in the day,but my god, what a great band.

Not sure of the output post and including Subhuman Race,but the first two albums are killer.

Also Twisted Sister. Dismissed as a novelty band when they released We're Not Gonna Take It but I recently listened to a best of on Spotify and I'm now converted.Seem like a great bunch of guys too judging by the film We Are Twisted F*cking Sister.

I consider myself an old heavy metal fan - started in the school back in 1989. Since then I strictly stick to the "classic", the music which started it all: From Accept and Helloween to Metallica, Annihilator and Slayer. About two years ago I have discovered Trivium (I have heard them before of course, but never listened to). Now they are one of my favorite bands

I got into Jazz  in particular Miles Davis/Coltrane/Migus a couple of years ago. I'd listened to Django for years because of the guitar but never really thought about other instruments.....

Similar thing with Tom Waits.... can't listen to enough especially the Ribot stuff

Those artists led me to listen to more Latin American music.
