Do you ever have those music days where something just clicks and you find some great music and you just can't get enough of it.  Every once in a while I am graced by hearing some new (to me) great bands.  Tonight at The Change we started talking about Phil Keaggy and I mentioned that I always heard he was supposed to be a great guitarist, but I never heard anything of his that I really liked.  That is when someone pointed me towards Glass Harp, the band Keaggy started in.  Contrasted to his chorus-pedal-ridden contemporary recordings this stuff was hard core 70's rock and Keaggy has some great solos in there.  

I also happened upon a newer band on MySpace called All the Day Holiday – great stuff.  They have a great mixture of instrumental and vocal in each song.  A lot of their music reminds me of Explosions in the Sky – that is the band that did the soundtrack for Friday Night Lights (the movie). 

So, overall not a bad day for music appreciation.  I guess if I want anything more than serendipitous glimpses at good music I will have to stop listening to so much talk radio
