The Most Awesomest Song of the Day: “Heavy Days” by Katy Guillen and The Girls!!!

I have started a new feature: The Most Awesomest Song of the Day! 

Here’s a link to the complete list: https://philmaq.com/most-awesomest-songs/

I want to emphasize mostly, relatively newer music, just like on my Monday night show, “Prime Time Theme Attic.” (Monday nights 8PM-10PM ET when it returns.)

Here’s the link for when that day comes: http://rdo.fm/r/4qntu )

But I can promise this: I will not force my selections. If something doesn’t hit me, I won’t post one.

Everything I do has always been about shining a spotlight on the artist and their music.

Now I will have the potential to shine 365 more spotlights if I want to!

Today’s selection is a song that everyone in my family likes when it comes up on my player! There aren’t too many of those!

Katy Guillen and The Girls are no longer a band.

They broke up after a tour that saw them opening up for Classic Rock artist Robin Trower, quite a guitar player himself.

I found that to be very disappointing, because they were some of the best musicians I’ve ever seen live.

Fortunately, like any good players, a new band was formed from the ashes: Katy Guillen and The Drive.

Yay!

Over the years, I am astounded at how many great guitar players are out there.

Not to start a gender war, but I think some of the best ones today are women!

I mean, technical prowess isn’t what makes a player great.

What makes a great player great is being able to play what needs to be played when it needs to be played!

Katy Guillen could play during any era, and would have held her own with any of the greats from the 60’s and 70’s!

And why not?

A lot of those guitarists were inspirations to her!

I have picked the title track by Katy Guillen and the Girls from their “Heavy Days” album!

It is in heavy rotation on my player, and these are truly “heavy days.”

The song rocks!

Katy shreds!

There’s a nice minor vocal section!

There’s a jillion hooks in the song!

I’m very excited to tell you that The Most Awesomest Song of the Day is “Heavy Days” by Katy Guillen and the Girls!!!
