Best Wine Drinking Music

WINE TALK
21

Modest Mouse - The Lonesome Crowded West or The Moon & Antarctica

Built to Spill - There Is No Enemy or You In Reverse

Interpol - Antics

22

You should talk Brad - I’ve seen you play air guitar to the Allmann Brothers while sipping Richebourg -

23

Don’t spill your glass while doin’ the cockroach!

24

I’ll add Norah Jones and Kat Edmonson

25

Not that I have anything against jazz, but the image of the wine geek swirling and sniffing his Grand Cru while listening to jazz music plays pretty hard into the stereotype.

Then again, most stereotypes begin with some partial degree of truth to them.

26

Harvest by Neil Young would be one of my top choices.

27

and are we talkin’ Old World or New World?



Pinot Gris - Yanni
Chardonnay - Lawrence Welk
Zinfandel - Led Zep
Petite Sirah - Metallica
Cab - Beatles (classics both)
Port - Black Sabbath

28

Guess it depends on what I am drinking and I have too many to choose from but here are some of my favorites:

Thievery Corporation - Mirror Conspiracy
Pearl Jam - Any album
John Coltrane - Blue Trane (cliche? yes but I love it)
Dave Matthews Band - Before These Crowded Streets
Neil Young - 1971 Live at Massey Hall

Coltrane My Favorite Things

30

I would go with jazz also.
Wynton Marsalis Resolution of Romance is great for laid back evenings
Miles also
Coltrane, Parker…the list is long

31

Oh, c’mon! Given the starring/ubiquitous role wine plays in most of our lives, I simply do not believe you guys have your music and wine choices coordinated to this degree!

32

Joe Pass

33

Wow, what year is it!

You don’t see Lloyd Cole mentioned everyday, but I dig it. Throw yourself some Prefab Sprout into the mix and you might be on to something. [cheers.gif]

34

Stereotypes? I drank 98 krug and 03 Dom p at the last phish show I went to.

35

Name the wine, and the accompanying food; tell me the time of day, week, year; specify the location; and name the company.

Then I’ll tell you what music.

36

Agree, ‘Push The Sky Away’ just cries out for aged Barolo or Burgundy.

37

Medeski, Martin and Wood did some pretty crazy stuff with John Scofield, too. Their first collaboration was A Go Go, which is boss.

38

My Pandora channels:

Pat Metheny
Steely Dan
Byrds
Buffalo Springfield

CDs currently in the kitchen…Paul Desmond Live, Mike Stern (forget which one), and some live String Cheese Incident 2005 and 2006…

Cheers, Bob

This reminds me of the short-lived Wine X magazine from about 15 years back. It was sort of a self-aware exercise is trying to be too hip. Their tasting notes include music recommendations. No, I don’t remember any. But I would think the music would depend on the wine.

All that aside, I’m with Colonel Bob on the Steely Dan.

Can you drink in your sleep Bob?
