Re: Musical Tastes
 

Good choice Mark. Never heard that version. Obviously I like it better than the dumb'ed down version ..
Supertramps "Crime of the Century" is in my 5 top albums off all. There isn't too many albums or CD's that you look forward to playing the entire thing. This is one such album. I'll pick a song that on a good system, is mixed superbly. Good impact, dynamic everything. And a good tune ...

Good post Mark on some local boys!.When Randy Bachman left the Guess Who in the early 70's,he formed BTO with Fred Turner.They were one of the hardest rockin' bands in the mid 70's.Every car guy had a BTO 8 track!.The band had a drag racing connection,Fred Turner was the flag starter at our local track in the mid 60's.This track may not be as well known as their others,but you can't mistake Fred's voice!...gsa612 https://youtu.be/QU0SwYK0vco

I'm gonna rough it up a little bit today. I always liked this song from Aerosmith. I've heard it Steve Tyler's favorite song of theirs.

And still no mention of Zepplin? I am on the road listening to “Ramble On”.

Eddie, in post #3 ( first page), I sent out "Get The Led Out". If your a Zep fan, listen to them and their newest promo video I posted..It's a walk back in time .....We had six tickets second row back mid section at Midland Theater in Newark Ohio (seats 1700) and covid ruined it...These guys just sold out Red Rocks Theater right before the virus.. Get the Led out adds two more players so they can add all the over dubs. The original Led Zeppelin of course did not do that, so all their live appearances sounded "live". They had no way of putting one guitar or voice recordings on top of another one, like is done in the recording studio. These guys add two more people so the live appearance sounds EXACTLY like the album.They even have a back up singer. Its refreshing..

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Great lyrics on this track,from the Demons and Wizards album (1972)...gsa612 https://youtu.be/u0iuaxvkXv4

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Also long overdue ..A song (or is it three?) with Country in the title ;-)

"Country Girl
a.Whiskey Boot Hill
b.Down, Down, Down
c.Country Girl (I Think You're Pretty)"
from Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's "DÉJÀ VU".

One of the many shocks to my mind about today’s younger generation came while I was waiting on my MH repair and in the waiting room they had this video playing. Twenty something walks in and says “who’s that?” My Lord, bad enough they don’t know history but....

Forgot it was two for Tuesday yesterday. Hell, I never know what day it is anymore ...

Lets do a couple from Clapton off the record that made him famous. Listening to him and Dwayne Allman playing dual leads is quite a treat....

Re: Musical Tastes
 

I know the feeling, and I did the same thing..Hard to remember what day it is in my world too ;-)

This should have been put up in the Deja Vu post.
Probably the shortest song on the album, but still a rocker;

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Back around 1980 I had a 77 Vette driver.When I played this track the first 2 min.would rattle the small interior with bass and separation.I miss that Vette,my hair, and the 80's...lol. https://youtu.be/RGPUBSQLgfs

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Some songs are really implanted in your brain. The first time this song was played on the radio in the Columbus area was Q-FM 96. It was a Saturday afternoon in mid summer, the DJ was making a big speech about this upcoming, going to be a huge hit for Billy Thorpe song. The sky was pitch black, all the leaves were turned upside down and the sky looked so angry and wicked. Tornado watches were out. Thunder was busting and lightning was racing through the clouds. I was in the house alone and it was kind of spooky... and then this song came on.. Really set the mood for a song such as this … kind of like War of the Worlds … Thanks for the memory ..

"Let's do this first ..Post a video of the kind of music you listen to while in the shop, or driving to and from the races. Give us a bit of background about your choice, and whether it's changed, etc.
Let's do only one video per post, per day, and give people a chance to catch up.
Thanks "

Two-fer Tuesdays allowed ;-) ;-)

Re: Musical Tastes
 

We've heard quite a bit of "city rock" and Classic rock artists. I'll bet some of you guys still have the 8 tracks in the garage somewhere .

Hoping to see some other genres , too.

We're gonna mellow out just a bit now.
The Beau Brummels were a Beatle-esque mid 60's group that were partly responsible for ushering in the San Francisco Sound..
They re-formed in 1975 for a reunion album.
This song is a cover of one of their earlier hits, with a touch more acoustic and country added.. Probably what I like about it... ;-)

Re: Musical Tastes
 

I've been towing my car to various tracks since the mid 70's,the closest one being 400 mi.away.I would leave before midnight and drive through the night.Like clockwork I would start to nod off around 3 to 4 am.This track (along with others over the years) was like 5 cups of coffee and a Red Bull!.I had it on 8 track,cassette,CD,and now on stick,depends what decade it was.It saved my azz a few times!...gsa612 https://youtu.be/Sm1q1XoN_Qo

Re: Musical Tastes
 

Anybody a Todd Rundgren fan ... This is a catchy little tune off the Something/Anything album. Lots of reverb that was so popular (back then) towards end

Hard to imagine Eric Clapton would idolize this ol' finger pickin' Okie folkie.
Don't believe me? Just watch his facial expressions here.
