U know what I mean. Songs, albums or even artists that u like but can't really be serious about. Stuff that may make your friends cringe. But nevertheless, despite your main tastes lie eslewhere, u still enjoy.
Here are a few to get things started. By the way I luv jazz, blues, funk and rock...Don't be shy!
ABBA; Dancing Queen Tom Jones: Its Not Unusual everything by KC & The Sunshine Band Wild Cherry: Play That Funky Music Janet Jackson: What Have U done For Me Lately? Glen Campbell: Rhinestone Cowboy Christine Aguilera: Beautiful
Mike, did he still have that skull on the top of the piano? Some of the stuff is a little repetitive, but the overall is well worth it, that old dude can really play. A personal favorite is his covers of Duke Ellington tunes, on a disc called Duke Elegant. Glad you enjoyed the show. -Tim
French-Canadian actress/singer Carole Laure. Her albums "Alibis" and "Hold On" are pretty good. Kinda like a French Marianne Faithfull at her better moments. Also, it doesn't hurt that she's gorgeous!
I can't believe no one has mentioned Barry Manilow! I even named my daughter Mandy, but told her it was after the Boston song (which came out two years after she was born)
Well I can see I'm gonna have to find a better place to hang;--you guys are just so;-- NOT-COOL. Karen has aready been mentioned. I mis the dixieland they used to have as a part-time Directv music chan.(806) I go way back to Dorsey,BG.Glen Grey--Song of India--Boggi Woggi--In the 50's Jonna Jones (muted trumpet) Louie Prima--- "She's Out of My Life" MJ--on a good system. No Latina herritage but love the music mostly the old and some of the new.---Beatles--Elton--JT---Emmylou--- I got a version of C Jam Blues by Mancini I love to bring out.Then we got your Beethoven, Mozart et.all---Just love music;thee constant in my life. -----So to me it ain't only the equipment------
If you're into Bluegrass, check out Luther Wright & the Wrongs rendition of "The Wall" titled "Rebuild the Wall". Not as bizarre as Dread Zep but fun to play.
Ditto on the Dread Zeppelin! I have about 30 Hawkwind albums but can play them only when I'm alone. The uninitiated just don't understand. Also Rosemary Cloney and country yodeling.
DREAD ZEPPELIN!!! Yee-ha, I thought I was the only one who'd ever heard of them! I can see how it all happened. A bunch of musicians sitting around and someone says Black Dog, someone says Hound Dog, someonme says Heartbreaker, someone says Heartbreak Hotel, then they run with it. They are pretty good musicians, too.
"Oh What A Night" by Frankie Vallie and the Four Seasons. "Ride Like the Wind" by Christopher Cross (only because Saxon covered it, honest) A little bit of Neil Diamond. Early Jackson Five. Sons of the Pioneers. Meco. Deodato songs other than "Zarathustra". Aldo Nova. The Gap Band. Jonzun Crew. "Winchester Cathedral" by Lawrence Welk. Perry + Kingsley.
I listen to heavy metal, mostly. Was just listening to Exumer, Agent Steel and Bolt Thrower, for example. Gotta liven up the party, I guess.
there would be far too many to list if I still had my tapes from the 80's...but for what I own and usually listen to now, I would have to say that the Madonna video collection 93-99 is my guilty pleasure...but hey...it sounds great and she's hot...in some videos...hehe.
another band that I was talking about with a friend today was Devo...I have to get some of their stuff again.
dread zepplin, for thoose of you who have never seen them they are a mess, the singer is an elvis impersonator & all the songs are led zepplin tunes redone with a elvis type voice, its silly stuff.
Dexy's Midnight Runners-Come on Eileen Buggles-Video Killed The Radio Star Carl Douglas-Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting Sweet-Ballroom Blitz Terry Jacks-Seasons In The Sun
10cc, Air Supply, Poco, (70's) my best memories were with the music of the 80's...Phil Collins, Thompson Twins, Hall and Oats. Stray Cats! :) Have to dig them out now and then! Ken
