MUSIC ... what do you like?

Long live radio I say, I cannot believe how many songs I have loved to listen to and have forgotten about, only to be reminded when I wasn't expecting it.


Heard this again today.

Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh memories :gnthb:

For lovers of fine music only.

Lolli, Scott McKenzie's song has been a favourite of mine since day dot and sums me up, mini skirts, crochet tops, flowers in my hair in the 60s (until I went into Dolly mode) ... thank you for that ... xx

I wanted to put up Climax Blues Band and Couldn't Get it Right as I was backstage when they did that concert in 1976 and shared my popcorn with the bass player as he was from Dawlish Warren in Devon where my aunt lived ... but I seem to be having problems with sound on YouTube so ...

Roders ... I choose to ignore it thank you ...

 

I've been adding to my new jukebox.

This one, I've "tarted it up a bit."



The old one now has Motown and 50/60s classic pop.

This new one will be some 70/80s MOR type pop (although I have got stuff like Free's "All Right Now" and Ace's "How Long,") some Doo-Wop, classic standards and jazz.

I recently bought some mint copies of these. They were hard to find.

I like anything with a good tune, it doesn't have to be "popular."

Been hearing this group from the 80s on a Portuguese radio station I listen to who have gone from hard rock to grunge to indy rock and I think this is incredible .... does anyone else know them ?

Pearl Jam are a great band. The lead singer Eddie Vedder is quite a critically acclaimed singer and sang a cover of "You've got to hide your love away" for the Sean Penn film I am Sam.

Thanks for that Lolli ... I think he voice is fantastic ... so earthy.

 

I bought this LP in Harrods in 1961, it was an "import."
I've still got it but I bought the CD too when it came out many years ago, as the record was beginning to get a bit worn.
Of the five musicians, only the pianist is still alive and he's 91.
I've many recordings of "Autumn Leaves" but this has remained my favourite.

Miles Davis at his best.

Whoa, thanks for that Lovely ... I had t'other half come and listen to it and he will investigate this guy. Very, very ZZ Top .. don't know how t'other half doesn't know about him already.

Again, many thanks. xx

 

If I just listen to him talking, he sounds like Jimmy Hendrix.
I've just noticed he's on BBC4 on Friday 19th, at 8.40pm.

On the subject of "One man bands"

Here's one.

He wrote the song, played all the instruments and provided all the voices.
This was over thirty years ago before "sampling," it's just over-dubbing.
It comes from a double album I bought at the time. I found the single on eBay.

Lead singer Doug Fieger died 14/02/2010!

 

Here's someone I've got into lately ... has written a couple of songs for Diana Vickers from X-Factor of 2008 ... fantastic singer and songwriter in my opinion ...
