DAY 13 of the 30 Day Song Challenge, alternative music styles!
When music started getting WEIRD which led to the awesome 80s College Rock years - the 70s!!!
Each day I’ll post the challenge and you share some of your favorite alternative & indie songs that meet the challenge!
There’s so much I want to mention but I’ve managed to narrow it down to a few things.
My dad is a big fan of Yes so here’s a track that I heard a lot when I was a kid and still love today.
Roundabout - Yes
As an adult I’ve made some effort to dig into the stuff I missed out on from previous decades. I recently “discovered” Lou Reed and love everything he’s done.
Walk on the Wild Side - Lou Reed
And finally I want to bring up Brian Eno’s contributions to ambient music. No specific track but I love his albums Another Green World and Music for Airports.
Roundabout is amazing, Fragile is a fave, but Close To The Edge is where my heart will always be…
