Music.

[Biff]

Being one of those who has a gazillion different hobbies, I am also a music lover and at one time got paid to play guitar. A true musician listens to many different styles of music just like a photog would change lenses for the different moods they are in. Music is an art as well as anything to do with photography as an expression of mood. One of my favorite musicians is from Texas. Enjoy!

If we are talking Texas music, there's no one like Alejandro Escovedo.

the 1st Whitehead in Texas (Henry) was traveling violin teacher and ballroom dance instructor. We have his journal that documented his 6 week trip from near Liberty Hill in central Texas to New Orleans to purchase sheet music during the Repulic of Texas era. So it is in the genes....

I bet there's a bunch of musicians on here. The links you guys posted were enjoyable- I too have a wide/eclectic taste in music. But my heart lies with The Police. I'm a drummer, I actually got to play with them during soundcheck when they came around this past summer. Dream come true. But anyways- I wanted to share as well- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDyfm...BEEE9&index=10

There's plenty more on there, feel free to listen/comment/etc. :)

Ill have to agree with gary, though all of the other bands posted are awsome , there is just something about Stevie ray and the sounds that he created, man he was awsome, and to think he couldnt read music... I remember when my late brother "Jorge" turned me on to this guy ! ive been hooked ever since. ! i miss them both.....

I played trumpet with this group for ten years in New York before I moved to Texas. I miss it.

lots of natural musicians can't read music, they play by ear. my youngest doesn't, and he plays keyboard, guitar and sings, composing and performing all the same.
