I'm pleased to present our Fan Favorites video for the month of August. This month, we focused on songs that have been on the Master List for a while, starting with 25 songs. Seven songs ended up making the video, and I enjoyed the listen.

Note: This was my first attempt at recording with the new camera. I don't have the settings dialed in yet. And, I didn't know it stops recording at the 30 minute mark. So, the first two songs are with the new camera and the rest of the video is with the old camera. 

Songs included:

- Year of the Cat (Al Stewart) - first time listen

- Jeremy (Pearl Jam)

- Hessian Peel (Opeth) - first time listen

- White Rabbit (Jefferson Airplane)

- Biko (Peter Gabriel) - first time listen

- The Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys (Traffic) - first time listen

- Do It Again (Steely Dan)

"Listen to THAT sound" in Low Spark is not Winwood's Hammond -- it was Chris Wood's heavily-effected saxophone! If you listen carefully to the cadence you can hear it as a saxophone.

First time listening to Opeth. Very cool and want to check out more. Did anyone else hear the Atom Heart Mother similarities in the section that starts around 22:45 in the video?

They are very progessive as a band. No album sounds the same. I think Pale Communinion is a great starting point and if you like heavier you go back in time. Like more clean go forward.

Year of the Cat = Apex Yacht Rock.

*I* can't believe you've never heard it before either. It was huge for a long time.

I think White Rabbit is one of the greatest vocal performances of rock and roll.

Low Spark is just cool as hell.

I was introduced to Traffic by my uncle who went to Woodstock (the original).

You can see the groove from Low Spark burrowing into Doug's brain. Addictive, innit?

Paul Halicki

That was perhaps the finest set of music I've heard. Well done, Council of Doug!

Dave Brockis

That was fun. I love Grace Slick's vocals. I've great memories of seeing Gabriel sing Biko at an anti-aparthied rally back in the '80s. Year of the cat is just a delicious song. Get Back is one of the greatest opening tracks on a debut album. Pearl Jam were and still are a class act. The other stuff wasn't bad either.

Chris Ramsbottom

Year of the Cat. Can't believe you'd never heard that before given your liking for singer-songwriters! The last time I heard that was at my dear friend Paula's funeral, where she had it as the curtain music. 3 years on and I cried again.

Greg Magsaysay

Doug, I didn't see anyone reference this reboot of Biko in the comments. Equally, if not more powerful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWNEr4eHL18
