. . . for Wrist Scan! Our theme this week is music and concerts. We've explored this subject a few times in the distant past, and overdue for another go-around. A few weeks ago, a song came on the radio that I hadn't heard in almost fifty years. All of a ...

Nice to meet a fellow instrument enthusiast! Do you play as well?
Sadly no. As a young guy..
By: mrds : August 30th, 2020-01:37
I had a shot at playing keyboards, but I was so hopeless at it that I gave up quickly. The good thing that came from it was that it changed the way I listen to music. Music is one of those few things that are really important to me in life. Today I mostly...

It was just released this year, Count . . .
By: Dr No : August 30th, 2020-09:35
. . . for the re-issue of Goat's Head Soup. The Stones have more great unreleased songs than many bands have released. Here's another: Obviously not Ricky Nelson Stoned forever, Art
Art, the Count is stoned!
By: COUNT DE MONET : August 30th, 2020-10:28
What a song! I absolutely love it. Unfortunately it is not on Goats Head Soup and also not on Sticky Fingers box set. Maybe not on an album for Germany/Europe?
Now that's what I call . . .
By: Dr No : August 28th, 2020-16:45
. . . a serious case of projection, Count! Believe it or not, I wanted to be . . . . . . a Miracle. Guess I'm more of a back-up than a front man kinda guy. ;-)

... this is a most important watch for me. Bought brand new at a local AD in 1977 it has served during several decades as my only watch. Now retired for security reasons I wear it only from time to time. Abrazos amigo mio!

By: Cpt Scarlet : August 28th, 2020-15:35
Abel, I missed the opportunity to see him live, a fabulous artist and one of my all time favourites. Can you tell us anything more about the concert ? Kind regards The Captain
Thank you so much for your kind comments dear Captain!
By: Subexplorer : August 28th, 2020-16:22
Yes, with much pleasure will tell you about it. Itโs a very interesting story indeed with much intrigue and many controversial events around it. Will write something tomorrow and add it in this thread. Iโm sure youโll like to know it. Best! Abel
Your post about Sinatra...
By: Cpt Scarlet : August 29th, 2020-11:47
Was so enjoyable to read dear Abel. That must have been a great experience. You were still lucky get the opportunity to see the show. Fascinating, thank you.
Fantastic pictures and choices

Hi Art and friends, I have always been a fan of Bowie, an artist in every sense of the word. To be truly great in the music business you need to be inventive and very creative to remain relevant and he certainly had that. Even at the end of his life Black...

When hip-hop and rap was new and the music of break dance
By: COUNT DE MONET : August 29th, 2020-07:11
The favourite track of us kids in our block to break brake dance on it. Fits to all moves of break dance perfectly. Around that time we had an Omega AD in the area and I was thinking :"Man, are these great watches ... and expensive!". ...
Great track ...
By: Cpt Scarlet : August 29th, 2020-09:45
Can you still do the moves ?
Au contraire!
By: COUNT DE MONET : August 29th, 2020-10:30
The moon walk asks for body control and coordination. It was the hardest move to get our brains behind it as kids: we didn't go to dancing classes, we were all autodidacts. We learned break dance exactly the way kids in America were doing: watching the mo...
