adj4u, we know what he meant, and in the spirit of going down memory lane, pray may I ask what are your memories of bands that blazed a trail for all these young pups who call themselves "muso's" today. Maybe a bit of Hendricks for you ? bigsmile

Oh yes, i totally do too, but still was reminded about some today.
I love my music soo much, and i know exactly what u mean about drivin your kids crazy...they used to get that way about it, but are so used to it now...and love it too.
their fiends always comment to them about knowin the words to EVERY song they hear.
they just say...."if u grew up in my house u would too..no choice in the matter". I love it!!!laugh

Must share this one with you guys, when " Men in Black " was released by Will Smith and my daughter was singing it, I was singing along to the tune and singing the Patrice Rushen version. My daughter got real upset, turned to me and said " You always have to spoil a good song by adding your own words, you are sooo SAD" Well, that was it, I went to my collection, dragged out the original version, showed her the date and than played it to her.Now, most of my stuff lives in here room, especially with some of the new crappers, erm, I mean rappers "sampling" old songs.

Punz, if you're adventreous and want to explore, try Yanni, his version of the Flower Duet(Leo Delibes’s ) is staggering. You may also want to look for Koji Kondo ( yes, one and the same who composed for the Mario games) Legend of Zelda medly is fantastic. We forgot ..........

Claptom
Peter Frampton
Roxy Music

Riders on the Storm and Spanish Caravan

some great tunes by one of
my all time favorite bands...
The Doors of Perception.

I saw them back in 1968, the last show in Bridgeport,
at my new high school's football field, before
Jim got busted right after that, in New Haven ...

Blind faith, and Jimi Hendrix
also rolled through for a gig that summer...

ah..." those were the days" ...as Cream sang....
