[QUOTE=gsa612;619809]"Get my French from the girl next door!"...Miss those 80's!...

Back in the Drugs/Sex and Rock and Roll days of my youth ( And I resembled that remark), a buddy and I went to Florida on vacation. I don't remember what town we were in, but we stumbled into a bar one early evening and the band played the song you posted. Man they tore it up. First time I had heard a cover band emulate it, and it was so good we went back there the following evening to hear them again. Thanks for the walk back in time. That's what is so cool about this thread. Can there really have been 10 thousand views on this thread? I can't see how that is accurate ..
Anyway, how can anybody not like this one this morning ?? Its a Elvis Costello tune but she does it soooo much better ... Shes my favorite of all the female singers ..

I returned from my first tour on Okinawa, Japan armed with a complete Marantz system, Denon turn-table, two 301 and two 901 Boses speakers. Ready to rock and roll:

Mark, I don't know why, but I could just never like the Dead. I think maybe it was because my boss, that I could not stand, was a big dead head. Don't know, but something sure soured me. I'm late doing this today, so maybe something a little mellow (for me) to wind down the evening. I know Mark likes these guys,,,, I do too ..

Co-written with Glenn Frey of the Eagles. Jackson at one point lived in a small duplex underneath Glenn and his then-roomate, J.D. Souther. Glenn heard him composing Take It Easy on the piano as he laid in bed upstairs. Browne was frustrated with the song and was going to give up on it, but Glenn thought it deserved another chance. He filled in Browne's lyrical gap with the line "It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford, slowin' down to take a look at me" and recorded it with the Eagles - and the rest is history.

This band starts off a little slow, then it is true rock and roll. Spent a lot of time with 10th, 11th and 12th Marines in the field.

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Some bands, Like Foreigner and the Babys, had good tunes. Sometimes when the "star" left the band, their solo stuff was better than when they were with the group.Certainly as good. Here's Lou Gramm after he left Foreigner.. Tomorrow I'll do John Waite from the Baby's.

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Jeff, I kinda know where you're coming from.
I knew of the Dead from the Haight Ashbury days.
About 1970, after hearing Workingman's Dead and American Beauty, I found out what an accomplished studio musician Jerry was. A multi-instrumentalist, who played guitar, banjo, and pedal steel, a lot of us heard his work without knowing it..."Teach Your Children" pedal steel opening and backing is one everybody knows.
Once the whole traveling hippie C/F show thing started, I had no interest in seeing them live.
What I did was buy the greatest hits CD and then left in only the acoustic and more mellow stuff, and then burned a CD to listen to in my RV. Try them that way.

This is what I had left, only re-arranged for better flow, IMO

Two for Tuesday. Thinks I will do (as promised) a couple from the Babys John Waite. First one from the Babys . This album was another played to death at our little house. We had one female friend that every time the party showed up, which was every Friday and Saturday nights after the bars closed down, she would shout at the top of her lungs while walking in the door " I WANNA HEAR THE BABYS! ".

Second one if from one of John Waites second band, Bad English. Notice he has Journeys lead guitar player after he split from Journey..

Someone posted Nick Lowe a while back. There just might be a few Dave Edmunds / / Rockpile fans out there too.
I couldn't decide but narrowed this down to only a two-fer. This one has the rockpile lineup and shows Nick The Knife on bass.

Re: Musical Tastes
 

I'm posting this one because of the story behind it. Not really a big favorite of mine anymore, but at the time we played records continuously. Every Friday night when Brad and I got off from work, we went to the Ohio State Liquor store. We both bought one 5th for the weekend. We then went to the two record stores in town and picked out at least one new album a piece. We usually had several people over in the early evenings as I had one of the best stereos in town. We would sit around and "party" till about 10 o'clock, and then head out on the town to our favorite bars. All the bars back then had live bands. Really good bands, many times brought in from out of state to draw customers from other bars doing the same things. After hitting a few bars and 2:30 am rolled around, the bars emptied, and most evenings they emptied into our HOUSE. I can remember waking up to find all the living room furniture pushed out to the edges of the walls for the purposes of making a dance floor. The stories I could tell here are endless, but I wanna tell of the time we just about didn't see the light of the next day.
It was in the winter . Our winters back then were brutal, and anyone that remembers the 1978 79 blizzards of the Midwest can attest to. We had a huge gas heater in the living room. It was out from the wall a couple feet. In the summer months it turned into a table, or a seat for people to sit on during the party's. But in the winter, she was full tilt keeping that old house cozy. After one of our extended get together s, I awoke to the smell of something unusual.Something was just not right. As I walked out in the living room that morning, I found this album (I'm about to play a cut off it) laying on TOP of that furnace. The album had been taken out of the jacket and both were laying there. At least what was left of them. The album itself was all melted and partially burned, and the cardboard jacket was brown, like a piece of well done toast.The album had actually melted and ran into the outlet grooves on the top of the heater.. What in the heck kept us from dying in a fire that night amazes me to this day ...
So here's the album, I choose this video as its a little different..

Quite a story, Jeff.
Believe it or not, I have the MTV video of Split Enz, I Got You, lined up for this week.

To each his own, new wave rates right up there with disco.

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Yeah, okay but you've got to admit you liked The Bee Gees.. in 1967 :-)

Re: Musical Tastes
 

BTW, Eric Clapton was asked what it was like to be the world's greatest guitar player.
His reply was "I don't know. Why don't you ask Prince?"

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Really can’t admit that, sorry!

Re: Musical Tastes
 

I'll keep that in mind ;-)

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Clapton did have a sense of humor. Just finished his autobio and no one mention of Prince.
