Weekend Concert Series: The Gaslight Anthem “Live on David Letterman”

by scrispe | Music | 1780 Views

The Gaslight Anthem are a band that formed in the early 2000s from New Jersey. They are heavily influenced by Bruce Springsteen and the Clash. They are also influenced by legendary soul and blues musicians such as Miles Davis, Wilson Pickett and Sam Cooke. They rock hard and know how to masterfully craft a great song. Their songs almost invariably have memorable melodies. They have 4 LP’s out at this point and all of them are solid with tons of excellent tracks. ’59 Sound is probably their best. Check it out!

    Not Seen

    Sorry I have not been commenting on the concerts lately. My computer won’t do you tube anymore. Just seizes up anywhere between 0 and 14 seconds in and all internet availability ceases till I do a restart. Which is a pain.

    Maybe I can find this on some other platform.

    For some reason, I was able to hear the Nick Drake. Thanks for that. I’d been reading about him for years, but never heard any of the music before.

    Thanks Spencer.

      Thanks

      Thanks Spencer, I too would have made a comment if my old computer hadn’t died, internet time has been very sketchy the past three weeks for me, can, not get used to the new programs which I can’t see as being any kind of improvement over my 2004 Dell w XP/outlook express I miss a lot. Good solid band, will listen more when I get a chance
