My music playlist for today (February 9, 2012 edition)

Truth be known, there’s a guy at www.progressiveears.com who goes by the ID of “Klonk” who’s been giving me my last two playlists … and I’m not even sure he knows it yet.

Klonk’s got some very good taste in music. He recommended the group Doves to a group of guys at progressiveears.com, and I ran with it. He also mentioned the British alternative pop-rock group Elbow, and I’m running with it today.

Elbow’s got a nice, British soul kind of feel to my ears. Especially soulful is the voice of Guy Garvey.

He looks like the kind of guy you wouldn’t want to run into when he’s had a bit too much and he’s staggering out of a British pub and he bumps into you, but he’s got this nice, soft, emotion-filled voice that just seems to speak from his soul. Making the music of Elbow just downright … well, soulful.

This Elbow’s got a nice touch.

But it’s all Klonk’s taste, good enough to share with the masses. Repeat after me: “ALL HAIL KLONK! ALL HAIL KLONK!”
