Music Monday: Mike Peralta

By now you should know that I like many different types of music and singer/songwriter Mike Peralta is no exception.

I do not remember how I first heard of Mike.  I'm pretty sure that he was the recommendation of a friend.

His style is a little Acoustic/Folk but not really.  It's more Alternative to me.

Any-whoo, the guy is super talented and funny as hell!

Here he is covering Sade.  Go ahead and laugh at how he pronounces her name.  It's been corrected.

Give him a listen and check him out on Twitter and Facebook.  He's a real cool dude who loves his listeners.

Plus, he gives out a shit ton of free music!

Score!

Music Monday - The 70s

It's been said that I was born in the wrong decade.  Even my own mother believes I should have been born at least 20 years before I was.

When she goes through my vinyl collection, iTunes library, and/or my cassettes, she laughs and says that my taste in music indicates that I've been here before.

What can I say?  I love 70s music.  There isn't much that I do not listen to on a regular basis.  I spent this weekend listening to Kool & the Gang, Earth, Wind, and Fire, The Bee-Gees, Marvin Gaye, The Ohio Players, Parliment, Rick James, The Gap Band, Rose Royce and others.

70s music makes me smile and dance.  Doesn't it make you do the same?

Funk, jazz, soul, disco...the music definitely defined a decade.

Here are a couple of my faves.

and this is the best!

Marvin Gaye's Got to Give It Up Soul Train performance!!!
