Cliff Ton 10,435 Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 Another piece of late 60s pop which I always liked; here with a slightly odd promotional film shot on a European railway. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,712 Posted March 29, 2023 Report Share Posted March 29, 2023 Good to see the love for Baez. I don't normally do regret, but I do regret not getting to see her. Mike (Trogg), I hope you enjoy your purchases. I'm sure you will. I think I have around 7 or 8 Baez albums. 'In Concert Vols 1&2' are real faves, along with D&R., but I also have a couple of other gems I love. First is a Saga label LP of very early Baez.. before she was famous. The other is a double vinyl album from around 1970, called The First Ten Years. I'd like to put up my all time favourite sequence of songs from In Concert Vol2..but maybe tomorrow when I have more time. For now, Joan's stunningly simple interpretation of Byron's 'Well Go No More a Roving'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oztalgian 3,218 Posted May 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2023 Australia scraped into the finals with a song from Voyager, a synth-metal (whatever that is) band from Perth with a song called Promise. Tried to listen to it but not for me, the only good thing was a cameo appearance by a classic Toyota MR2 Win or loose the good news is that our invitation to compete expires this year so hopefully we will no longer be exposed to this travesty of a "song" contest any more. I for one will not be getting up at 5:00am on Sunday to watch it after celebrating the Maggies return to the EFL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Willow wilson 891 Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Eventually found this after a long search, from the memories of my last year at school. Happy carefree days. It's now played at T20 matches when a boundary is scored. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Willow wilson 891 Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Another popular 'cardigan and quiff' song from the salad days when the schooling chapter of my life was coming to a close, 60 'n' odd eventful years ago. Carpe diem, tempus fugit. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Knew the tune as soon as it started, even remembered the title but for the life of me never knew the artist. This is my favourite cricket theme from the 80s? Soul Limbo. England playing the West Indies when it was on the BBC and not behind a PayWall on Poxtel or some other pay service. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The good news is that the England vs India test match final is on FTA so I will be watching that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
