Here's a bad ass heavy rocker with a fantastic intro from an obscure 1989-90 band that did not go on to great success: Ptolemy by Blue Murder.



Love the name Ptolemy. Could very well use that name for my next PC...

A week or two back while driving home from the office,, this song came on the radio. I'd never heard it before, but when I looked at my radio dash, it said Pink Floyd, and I was like, wtf? I've never delved into Floyd beyond the usual radio played songs, and I really like this one. Told myself I'd have to start listening to more of their albums to see what else I've been missing.

Pink Floyd - On The Turning Away

Great tune! IIRC it was included on Pink Floyd's 1987 release, A Momentary Lapse of Reason. I think that was the same album with Learning to Fly.

Lately I've started getting into hammered dulcimer music. Here are a few videos featuring said instrument. Enjoy!
