There's a whole website dedicated to that stuff: www.aurgasm.us

Earlyer you could actually download most of the songs free of charge too, now it went paid it seems. You can still listen to whole songs though.

edit: most of the songs are still downloadable actually!

One more: James Blake http://vimeo.com/15624524

turn up your subwoofer on this song to wake up the neighbours :)

I've harped on the subject before here on the BBS but I still think Alejandro Escovedo is one of the greatest rock 'n roll acts out there right now.  A bit of a local legend in his hometown of Austin Texas he's relatively unknown otherwise.  His music is all over the place, pulling in bits of punk, pop, country, he even plays with a string section sometimes.

Red Delicious- Casualties

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ndI7eKX7JY

Nightwish- The Islander

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2sd8UMUaIk

Savatage- Somewhere in Time & Believe (2 songs in one video.. my fave is Believe at the end)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2sd8UMUaIk

also..all the songs in the Savatage album 'Edge of Thorns' are amazing songs most people dont hear about since this group is mostly heavy, screechy, annoying metal... except the above mentioned songs/albums.

Paul Rodgers rocking "simple man" live.

He still rocks this song amazingly to this day but this is a really good recording and features Nils Lofgren who wrote "nobody bothers me" from the jhoon rhee tae kwon do advertisements in washington DC.

Cheap Trick in the Hammond Civic Center in Indiana was the first concert I ever attended. I went to see UFO, but Cheap Trick blew them off the stage. Bought this album and "In Color" the next day (on LP - yes, that long ago.)

Some of David Gilmour's best guitar work:

Another "non-radio Classic":

A great tune from a relatively obscure band: (outro solos are excellent)

Getting more recent

Might be their best tune (that never made it to radio):

Another great band:
