Music The Music Thread

[DefinitelyMaybe94]

Just flicking the thread thought id throw my two cents out there. Maybe a little obvious to some but this is one of the greatest records ever!

 

[Jen]

One of my favourites and an early memory - 1958

 

[dave]

I'm liking that Jen. I'll admit the only Peggy Lee song I knew was ' Why don't you do right'. Now I know two!

The vocal delivery on Fever reminds me of this

 

[Slyboogy]

Gotta to love a bit of King Louis!!!

 

[McZiderRed]

As today is the 70th Birthday of one Robert Allen Zimmerman, aka Bob Dylan, I thought a tribute was in order...

Ok, this happens to be the only original track by Dylan that I found on Yew Choob, but I also happen to like it...

 

[gethinceri]

I've had to work hard to like Dylan but it's worth it. Good choice McZ, even if options were limited.

 

[Jen]

Is he really 70? I hadn't thought about it - but then I'm only 21!

 

[Jen]

Another miserable magician:

 

[McZiderRed]

Ahh, good old Mr Leonard Cohen.

 

[Jen]

Ahh, good old Mr Leonard Cohen.

There is a certain comfort in his voice and I think that is what made him popular - apart from the fact that he is a poet.

 

[McZiderRed]

And

Kids, what you have been watching are known as 45 inch singles. Records made from plastic wax that produce a sound that has yet to be matched by CDs, MP3s and such like... apart from the cracks & pops. You don't get those anymore.... 'Part from that, yet to be beaten...

 

[Jen]

Ah, vinyl - I have about 250 LPs and 100 singles - ranging from 1962 to 1995 - and a whole host of memories squirrelled in my head.

 

[F1Yorkshire]

Yeah I know what vinyl's are.....

 

[EvilWhippet]

Time to have a p-p-p-party on the patio!

God knows what train of thought led me to that...

 

[Sarinaide]

I mostly listen to Doom, and Prog. Metal but that said if it is good music I listen to everything.

 

[Brogan]

Yeah I know what vinyl's are.....

O/T for the thread, but watching that guy was like watching an artist at work.

 

[dave]

Sadly I couldn't find a performance of it but here's the orginal mix dj.

Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel

 

[gethinceri]

Thanks Dave, I've been looking for that!!!

 

[dave]

Your welcome geth

There was a performance of it on youtube, whre it shown Flash mixing behind his back along with his normal tricks but it's not there now sadly.

My musical heritage, mostly from the 40's and 50's and early 60's. Confusion followed in the early 60's when my eldest brother introduced 'modern' stuff. You may not enjoy what I'm about to post, sorry x
