This could be the start . . .
. . . of something big. What could be more entertaining than sharing our favorite music? My contribution: Floyd Cramer. 🎵
Play this Bread tune on the seaside bar's jukebox . . .
. . . every Father's Day and Dad's birthday. 👨👦
Dire Straits Live At The BBC is an absolute gem.
Hard to find it on streaming, but jeez what a great collection of performances, especially Wilde West End…
Saw Nils perform at The Roxy in the early '90s . . .
. . . with a band anchored by a drummer from Detroit whose name I can't recall at the moment. When Nils came out for the encore, he played a Chuck Berry tune (can't remember which) backed up by Ringo.
Great Thread!
Music is a big part of my life and this one is special to me and my special lady S
Lou Reed; Sweet Jane, from Rock n Roll Animal.
Honourable mention, Quick Silver Messenger Service, Who Do You Love from Happy Trails.
Your photo reminded me of this…
Paul randomly showed up four years ago about half a mile from my house. He seemed somewhat out of place in our tiny NJ town of Metuchen in the US. He was visiting the area since his wife grew up less than a mile from where I live. My wife’s friend noticed...
Music is ultra important
Let’s say it stay a bit under the all of alls, my cat. Played a bit with record player needles. Around 2 grams press to run in my Audio Technica Shibata (brown) Sounds better than the standard on my Thorens delivered Audio Technica Green. Cleaned todays t...
The enire bloodletting CD is good.
Just played it the other day and thought wow, still like it now the way I did back then. And Tomorrow Wendy's a great closingt track.
Great song for the right crowd . . .
. . . but will bet it's never played on a barroom jukebox. At least, not in the joints I hang out in . . . too much of a downer.
PEARL JAM
B L A C K vinyl sound Lyrics Hey, oh Sheets of empty canvas Untouched sheets of clay Were laid spread out before me As her body once did All five horizons Revolved around her soul As the earth to the sun Now the air I tasted and breathed Has taken a turn ...
. . . and now, for something . . .
. . . completely different. As morose as Concrete Blond, but the groove! Played often on a jukebox by yours truly . . .
Great groove! . . .
. . . and I'll bet Jerry's drugs that day were groovy, too. Unsurpassed as a cover band, The Dead; often better . . . . . . than the OG.
Two Zevon tunes get played on the jukebox . . .
. . . at my Wednesday pool tournaments: Carmelita . . . . . . and My Shit's Fucked Up. Carmelita is the ultimate LA song and MSFU is the ultimate old guy's song. (Most of us are well into our fifties, one on the south side of eighty.) ;-)

Q: What do Fleetwood Mac and KISS . . .
. . . have in common? A: Both Lindsay and Ace can't read music. USC marching band, indeed.
You've taught me . . .
. . . someone new. Never heard of Stacey until just now. Thanks!
Familiar with Macy . . .
. . . but hadn't heard her cover of Redemption Song until just now. Her vocal technique reminds me of Dee Clark . . . . . . who also poured emotion into his work. Art
Clark was most famous for . . .
. . . Raindrops. Drawn to the way he infused emotion into his voice; his was a sad life, he should've been more of a success than he was.
Nothing defines the mid-'70s better! . . .
. . . maybe, just maybe, Silver Convention. 💃🏾
Played Neil's live version of . . .
. . . Pocohantas . . . . . . a few Wednesdays ago on the jukebox at our pool tournament. Can't have upbeat music all the time . . . gotta come down once in a while. 😌
You knew . . .
. . . this was coming. To be played on the jukebox at the English pub tonight . . .
Have I ever told you my Shirley Bassey . . .
. . . story? 🤔 1986, Manama, Bahrain. Shirley performed at a supper club with a backing band. We were seated at a table just a few yards from Dame Shirley. I must've been on medication earlier that day because I fell sound asleep during Thunderball. When ...
If you were to ask for my favorite singer . . .
. . . of all time, it would be Gene Clark. I could listen to him sing nursery rhymes. Art ...
