Interractive Poll #? - Oldies rocking goldies

Raff:  Blue Oyster Cult “The Alchemist”  This one I know.  Here is truly solid hard prog rock coming in from the get-go with great guitar hooks and keyboard embellishments and a story-telling song of an ancient alchemist with great powers over king and country.  Guitar pyrotechnics halfway through.  Cute ending to the video.  😊

Logan:  David Bowie “Girl Loves Me”  Not quite sure what to call this piece, it certainly has it’s very own sound and Bowie’s distinctive voice, which he plays with quite a lot.  Kind of a slow-moving observation with wavy-keys and some almost sort of nonsense words (may be slang, too, I can figure some of it out, but not some other parts of it).  He puts me in mind of Peter Gabriel in his vocal effects, similar to
“Shock the Monkey,” to my ear, but of course not at all the same piece.  I will likely have to hear it more than once to discover what I really think of it, not that someone who is such an icon as Bowie would care, lol.  Ennio Morricone’s “The Hateful Eight Soundtrack”  This begins very ominously, I like the initial feel of it.  Orchestral, as one would expect from Morricone.  It continues with the dark feel and understatedness, building a lot of tension.  It builds and some human voices are sort of chanting along with the music all crashing down.
