OT: Revisiting old music thread, rock with good brass

[SkilletHead2]

A couple of months ago, I asked about rock groups with good brass sections. Lots of good answers, and this group might be among them, but I've just found them and want to recommend:

Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats

Check out "S.O.B." and "I Never Get Old" (first two on this url):

Caught them while cruising around on NPR's "Tiny Desk" program, which I love. You might also check out Monika Christodoulou on the same program: This is a songstress who is highly engaging.

Not exactly rock, but just found out about the group Con Brio last night. They have a really good horn section and, dang, the singer is pure fire.

This is a songstress who is highly engaging.

She does a very nice job, I like her.

Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. /thread.

Saw Nathaniel Rateliff and the Nightsweats at this year's New Orleans Jazz Fest. They rocked the Gentilly Stage and I can't stop singing "SOB". They are in the Netherlands next month and I gave some slight consideration to going over and following them on tour. :pimp:

Chicago

I was a musician as a kid and listened to a lot of Chicago. I can't stand them now. Weird.

Ten wheel drive. Tower of power. Pacific gas and elecitric. Sax solo from Touch Me by the Doors

Sax is a woodwind

Tango, . I have read some of your threads. You are severely challenged. But thanks for having my back.

Everything about Chicago changed when Terry Kath died. They're like two different bands... with Kath (high-charged, experimental) and post-Kath (shmaltzy, adult contemporary).

Rateliff and Company bring it. Here's one I don't think was in that original thread that you might like, from the Waterboys (Irish band big in the 80s):



And, of course, most ska bands have great horn sections and the Specials had one of the best. Try this one out if you haven't heard it.

tower of power...pass the plate album..

So Tango, do you always remind people that it's a station, not a terminal?

Great thread! Loving the recommendations!

Any of the stuff? The early stuff was so good. And the horns .. Incomparable

Well since I don't seek it out I only hear what was popular occasionally on Sirius. But it just makes my skin crawl now - I have no idea why. Probably issues from my childhood. LOL.

 

[RW90]

Surprised no love shown for Blood Sweat And Tears?

 

[DT Hawxhurst]

Sly & The Family Stone?

 

[FELONIOUSMONK]

Would have mentioned the Skatellites and the English Beat ,Selector along with One Step Beyond by Madness but they were more 80's related. .Yes Tango that song had a sax and it was woodwind.My all time favorite party album was James White and the Blacks ..
