I cannot stand modern country music however the old school country can be fantastic and this is one of the best.
if you've never heard it before I urge you to give it a listen the story it tells is classic.
now this isn't necessarily country but some kind of bluegrass Appalachian music but whatever it is it's just great and it doesn't hurt that I absolutely love justified and one of the best characters ever sang this beautiful song.

The soundtrack of my life includes a heaping helping of Joni Mitchell. This could be one of any 20 or 30 songs of hers that I just love
so far: Doo Wah Diddy Diddy - Manfred Mann
Barracuda - Heart
Sing, Sing, Sing - Benny Goodman
Come Go With Me - The Del-Vikings
As Time Goes By - Dooley Wilson
Zoot Suit Riot - Cherry Poppin Daddies
Stray Cat Strut - The Stray Cats
Carey - Joni Mitchell
A Wilbury. ELO always fell a bit off the radar but Jeff Lynne has one of the greatest and most expressive voices in Rock'n'Roll and the band has written some brilliant classics. This song demonstrates his voice very well. And it's live!
One of the first bands to experiment with laser lighting. Their live shows are spectacular.
I select:
ELO - Telephone Line
This live addition is perfect!
1 Gladys Knight & The Pips - Midnight Train To Georgia
2 Carole King - (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman
3 The Glenn Miller Orchestra - In the Mood
4 10cc - I'm Not In Love
5 Frank Sinatra - Fly Me To The Moon
6 Leonard Cohen - Dance Me to the End of Love
7 John Mellencamp - Paper in Fire
8 ELO - Telephone Line
Just a personal one I love…it’s quite meaningful to me.
