Pete Robin Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Not exactly music, but it makes me laugh, every time. Shame he was a Lancashire lad. But we can't have everything. Regards Pete 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Oh, now you're talking!! Rock 'n' Roll royalty. I used to be able to play the piano solo with just two fingers for this one. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to be able to play the piano solo with just two fingers for this one. Live only 200 some miles from clear lake and plan on going one year for the memorial. Sadly coming home from Montana years ago I drove right by it in the dark. If I had realized I would have stopped for a moment.

I am really impressed with her vocal range AND the quality of the musicians with her. Surprisingly I appear to now be a fan. Pump this through some quality speakers or headphones - impressive! OK!?? That's surely a Miley Cyrus lookalike? Normally I associate her voice with the sound of industrial floor sanders! After all these years & she's done something that actually sounds impressive. Great tune, & the band is spot on. That's a contender for adding to my iTunes library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep getting distracted by the drummer - the head on the tom seems really loose... which makes it sound superb! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought I'd say that I would appreciate a performance from Cyrus. Maybe it's the song & she's subtly changed in her singing ability. Definitely caught the sound of that tom as well. Just heard this. Brilliant band performance but still in two minds about her voice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightningboy2000 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Just been giving it large to this playing it pretty loud. Must be one of the best electronic acts ever from the UK & still going strong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely caught the sound of that tom as well. The band seems to be regulars - same drummer there! I see her voice has changed due to heavy smoking & drinking. Due to that there was a need for surgery on her voicebox/throat, which has also changed the sound of her voice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Pete Cracking stuff. I had the opportunity to learn this from a Stanley Holloway 78. It was written by Marriott Edgar, along with the likes of 'The Lion and Albert' and 'Sam, Sam, pick up tha musket'. For some reason I particularly like the line that goes 'Noah cruised round flying his pigeons...' Edited January 31, 2023 by JosephLalor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightningboy2000 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Fantastic to see that Ukrainian band Onuka now have their music played in Nissan's new Xtrail advert. Profits that Onuka are making from the deal are going towards humanitarian aid, & much needed vehicles to transport medical & food aid. Just listening to this.. & here's the ad... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
