What are you listening to?

I miss the 80's too buddy!

 

I am about to be 46. How about you?

 

42

 

Well stay at that gym. It all goes to Hell at 45.

Just sayin.

 

Have a great Sunday!

​

 

At 42, despite age and issues, I am stronger and more flexible, albeit smaller, than I was at thirty. It's never too late to win it back.

 

George Benson and Earl Klugh You're Welcome People!

 

Football on mute, Orb through the big speakers. "S.A.L.T./Toxygene" at 33:45 is true ambient DJ excellence by Alex Paterson

 

I worked at a club owned by a friend of mine in the late 80s/early 90s - did everything that he needed me to do: play records and make people dance, tap beer or just stand at the door and look mean Sure helped that I am (or was) 6' 6'' tall, so I did not have to actually use force much, except when I occasionally had to convince the last drunk to leave at closing time.

Sure had a hell of a time back then born in 1965 btw

 

"My" soundtrack of the 80s



Okay - this one's from 1979, but still

 

My son is fortunate enough to be studying under the tubist from this group.

 

One of the best (and weirdest) cover songs I've come across.

 

What I listened to in the 80s (jr high, high school, and USN for me):

 

I nominate The Gourds, for their bluegrass treatment of "Gin and Juice", by the one and only Snoop Dogg.

 

IMHO the 12-track American LP - - which included I've Just Seen a Face and It's Only Love - - worked a lot better than the 14 track British one.

 

Too funny. I love bluegrass covers. How about a little Yonder Mountain does Talking Heads? (Pretty good sound, crappy video, sorry. Skip to about 2:00) I was at this show. It was pretty hot.



They don't usually have electric playing with them, but at that festival, there was an "Artist at Large", Roosevelt Collier who came out and played with every band on the main stage. He could just shred on pedal and lap steel. The next night, I watched him do One Way Out with the Allman Brothers. He and Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks were smokin'.
