Just another music thread.

... and I should head go off to bed soon.
Another day "at the chalk face" (as we say in the world of education! ) tomorrow.

OK, I accept the compliment. (I think? )

Good night msolga, rest well, and have a good day tomorrow.

Thank you! I'll do my best. (Looks like being a bit hot & sticky again.)

You have a good one, too, Dutchy.

Good morning msolga, another warm one here too. Saw Andre Rieu twice in concert and I think his music is great, here is a quiet number to start your day, Ravel's beautiful Bolero.....

Ah, thank you for the early morning thought, Dutchy.

Unfortunately, I've only seen this now. After work.

Too late, too late!

The damage has been done, I'm sorry to say!

Never mind, here is something a little faster at the end of the day, hope you're not to tired to enjoy it.

Cooking dinner in a frenzy now!

In Adelaide?

In Holland in 1987 and at his Adelaide concert in November 2008, also have about 20 of his CD's and DVD's. His concerts in his hometown Maastricht are absolute classics.

A big fan, I see!

Goanna: Solid Rock. An Oz classic. Lyrics below.




Solid Rock:

Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway
You feel the endlessness with the comin' of the light o' day
We're talkin' about a chosen place
You wouldn't sell it in a marketplace, well
Well just a minute now

Standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowin' down the line
Right down the line

Round about the dawn o' time, When dreamin' all began
A croud o' people came
Well they were looking for their promised land
Were running from the heart of darkness
Searching for the heart o' light
Well it was their paradise

But they were standin' on - solid rock
Standing o-on sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change were blowing cold that night
Oh

They were standin' on the shore one day, Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasn't long before they felt the sting, white man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me that it's justified, 'cause somewhere, someone lied
Yeah well someone lied, someone lied, genocide
Well someone lied, oh, ahh

And now you're standing on - solid rock
Standing o-on a sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowin' down the li-ine

Solid rock, Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowing down the line
Solid rock, Standing o-on sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowing down the line
Oh-oh-oh no, NO-O

Another oldie: Great Southern Land. Ice House:

Cooking dinner & listening to music at the same time.
Neil Young fits the autumn mood perfectly.
I loved this CD. Played it a lot when it was first released:

Another favourite Neil Young track, earlier. Good stuff ..

Even further back. Very good music at the time, always ....

Ah. You've gotta smile:

Old man look at my life,
24 and there's so much more ...

But what a wonderful song!
Haven't heard it for years.

Last one. Dinner needs my attention.

Out of the blue & into the black.

Hey, hey,
My, my ...
Rock n roll can never die ...

(There's more to the picture than meets the eye! )

"It's better to burn out, than it is to rot"

Yes, indeed!
