Hi OaK -- thanks!! Those are great links.... I could spend days and days surfing from the snowcrest website... I'll have to watch the fleetwoodmac.net intro from my office, where we have DSL.... it was too much for this dial-up connection. (sigh, DSL and cable aren't available out here)
Another one of my favorite groups from that era is "Jefferson Airplane".
Peace and Love == Yeah Jefferson Airplane , great stuff. I got a CD of theirs recently. A compilation or re-issue, not sure. It's got White Rabbit and their other well know trks. Grace Slick has a great voice
Two people talking on the other side of my cubicle wall.
Fascinating stuff, at the moment. First was a recording of Paul Robeson singing Simple Gifts and songs of Aaron Copeland, with Copeland at the piano--right now, they are playing The Lark Ascending by Rafe Von Williams, as recorded by the violinist for whom the piece was written . . . these are the times when i feel my donations to public radio are well-spent . . .
My jackass coworker eat like a pig and burp every 4 seconds.
Then I'll hear his stupid racist jokes about MLK day over and over again.
Make up some jokes that would be insulting to him too?
Right now, the CD player in my car contains Tom Petty's "Into the Great Wide Open".
The CD player in my car holds the "New Kids on the Block Xmas album." Can't get enough of that Joey McIntyre guy.
Actually, it's the last Foo Fighters cd.
The Wind and the Rain - Unplugged. later we get to hear The Wind and the Rain -- Powered Up, with Thunder, Lightening and Fire and Brimstone.
right now I'm listening to Carol King's 'Tapestry"
"Today the earth..moved.. right under my feet"
Ah, yer datin' yerself, Boo . . .
(Confidentially, i'm listening to Revolver in the tape player of the Jeep right now--i usually let a tape run for a couple of days in the Jeep, since i'm only in it for 15 or 20 minutes at a time. Am i datin' myself? Damned straight--never get tired of the Beatles.)
My fellow old Geezer,
I can remember saying what's all the fuss about these english chumps. They'll be forgotten next month.
I remember thinking, at about age 14--"This is the greatest music there ever was (not just the Beatles, all of it in the early 60's), i'll never forget this." About 20 years ago, i heard a Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders song that i'd not heard in almost 20 years, and recalled my thoughts at age 14--and was profoundly and privately embarrassed, as i had forgotten the existence of the song and the group completely.
Very bad day at work.....drowning myself with very loud Metallica.....
Sweet Old World by Lucinda William. Just listened to Car Wheels On A Gravel Road, also by L.W.
