* Classic song. Brought back some memories. The wicked bass playing there really has my attention. I don't recall that on the LP. Love it.

* I was going to post a YT Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5 vid which I really enjoyed...can't find the specific link now (I think I have it)
but I'm getting my second wind now with 1 beer and the above tune. Thanks DLD. Wicked bass. :)
 
//I'm pretty sure this is the one (There are no YouTube ads on the one I had.)50 mins long. I find it very cinematically dynamic if I can use
that term.
Manyana. :)
//Not it. My apologies. I'll have to add it later. I'm off.

//This has to be it as there was no loud percussion in it.
I am way passed sleep. Let's hope I have it right.
//Confirmed. -Good Night.

I heard a Tom Petty song on the juke box today. This isn't it (Bear with me).
It sounded almost "identical" to a Black Crows style coverable. If anyone knows the song give a shout out.
(I asked the guy that put it on and he was just hitting buttons on the Juke Box and didn't know. [I can dig it down next time I'm there]).
In the meantime, a warmer-upper->.:)

//Tom Petty Songs are never long enough. It's just getting started. There needs to be a jam in there afterwards then come back to the tag again. 7 mins-ish would be cool. Please. :)

Found a live one at 12.mins. Listening to as I post.

Close enough. That was really good.

Do you remember any lyrics from that song? If it's on a Jukebox playlist, it has to be fairly well known.




 
DLD. It wasn't a "hit" song. I''ll have to go back there and dig the name out now that I've cornered myself hahaha. But yeah, well, let me do that and post tomorrow or the next day. I had never heard it before either. ;)

I gotta take off here for a tiny bit and I'm rushing this song post so excuse me . I'll catch up later on a.s.a.p. An hour or 3. brb. :)

//Hanging out at Chevy's for the night now (Nov 27). -Cheers peeps. Good place. Gonna chill for a bit. https://vaughn.live/chevy

* A few days later I'm now getting this message "This video contains content from SME, who has blocked it in your country on copyright
grounds."
At any rate there are other versions of that one around. Barry Hay (Golden Earring). Good song.

* Just out of curiosity let's see if this version gets banned in my country as well. I'm also noticing that this video "appears" to be the original cut with which the above video from SME was derived from and poorly re-edited. I.M.O
-update: Did this version get banned in 'my country?: a week or two later: This version Not blocked. :) Thank-you.
Nerd Alert: Bass player begins wearing a red shirt and later is wearing a white shirt. Lighting would suggest the discrepancy but after reviewing again...that's a good lighting effect. (?)

Okay I made that lipstick part up. Messin with ya. I wonder what else is off in that video though. ;) -Beerskis.
-The resolution and quality of the camera @3:40 is way off from the rest of the video strongly suggesting...well, we're getting the picture
from the video editors p.o.v. Also the drummer is wearing a hat in other parts of the video...this is getting too good.
Still really good though. Just bored and having beerskis. Oh wait...there's a knock at my door...that's the cop that...hahaha. (kidding)
-gotta go.

A coinkidink - a friend started a "rock club" group on Facebook, mostly for us who grew up in the 1960's and 70's in the same neighborhood. I try to mix in some US stuff that they were almost completely unfamiliar with but linked "Radar Love" earlier today.

This is the style that totally goes by them.


Fagen ought to blame VoA for not playing it.
 
Exploring Tim Michin. Very popular in the Europe area I understand. He's a bit "out there". I'm not sure what to think right now (Sheeesh) but that in itself interests me so...
-update: A comedian foremost with an amazing skill on the piano. :)

I looked at the various music sites and Peart was rated as the top drummer over the last 40 years (following Moon's and Bonham's deaths in the late 1970's). What many don't know is that he also wrote most of Rush's lyrics.

Hah, it's mostly lipsync. The Russians don't do the live sound well.

As to the bands, Boney M was huge in Europe of the 1970's. Liz Mitchell was both a singing and a performing member. But they were all lipsync on stage. Their producer Frank Farian (real nam Frank Reuther) became infamous in the US for applying the Boney M formula to his next man-made band Milli Vanilli.

In 1978, Boney M became the first major Euro act - although its members were mostly from the Caribbean - that did a series of concerts in Moscow. The tickets weren't so much sold as apportioned between the Soviet VIP's, who were told to "sit still and not respond to the provocations". Andrei Makarevich, whose band "Машина времени" (Time Machine) was always in big trouble with the authorities was called into a local Party HQ and was given a stern lecture about being too pro-Western (or some other stuff). I response, Makarevich said to the Party poobah, "Hmm, maybe if I get to see Boney M, I'll figure out what not to do better. Do you think you can come up with a few tickets, just to give me a valuable lesson?" Lo and behold, the Party poobah actually got him a couple of tickets.

The band did not get paid for their week but the Soviets provided the crews for the related documentary.

And, of course, one song they were not allowed to perform was their biggest hit, "Rasputin". I wonder why.


Side note, the cute Soviet "journalist" at 1:00-1:10 that Bobby kisses on the cheek was a good friend of one of my recent Facebook acquaintances (sadly, she was killed in a car crash around 1983).
