- what exotic fish I caught in the ocean of music -

Was just a cutout from the Detroit Free Press newspaper. So misspellings were common! We use to listen to Birds of Fire a lot. Great album. It was Cobham’s drumming on that record that got me interested in the drums

Birds of Fire was one of the first LP’s I bought when I started working and had some newly acquired beer and music money…
While at school, we didn’t have much money for records, and friends would borrow each other’s LP’s and record cassettes from them.
I was interested in drumming because my older brother was a drummer. I used to sneak into his room and bang the drums when he wasn’t there, but I never learned to play properly.

Some more more obscure oldies:

This is the original, later covered by The Hollies

Had some of the members of 10cc playing on it

Can you recognize the artists?

Wow…a fantastic gathering of some of the best. The video gave away some information by listing the bands involved, but I still had to guess a few of them and look it up on Wikipedia.
Another great concert with some of the worlds best is “A concert for George” honoring George Harrison after his death.

From YouTube comments:

Chaka Khan with Rufus - Sweet Thing

Incredible voice comparable to Whitney, Aretha, Dionne, Diana, Gladis and probably not so much more. Gloria Gaynor also, when disco starts.

I missed quite like: Ella, Sarah, Billie, Shirley, Natalie and father, Nina etc.

I’m going to see The Turtles (Flo and Eddie) and others from the 1960’s tomorrow night at Westbury Music Fair. Can’t wait. It’s been a while since I’ve been to a concert.

We waiting a feedback from The Turtles, Glenn :wink:
Quite a long time distance is …

This excellent thread started by Bonham has been quiet for a few weeks…
Just trying to keep it alive with a few tunes…

Janis Joplin - Summertime

Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton - Can’t Find My Way Home (old Blind Faith song)

Jim Croce - I Got a Name

Never been much of a live album guy, 9 below zero - live at the marquee, thats a album right up there.

This is how it kick off.

And i think the saying was for a long time, you are not a band before you have played at the marquee.

Now we are at the live album part of the evening, then Supertramp live in Paris ( 1979 ) is also executed pretty well both the concert and the mix.

Rocked the “house” on my big ass B&W speakers, mixed with the unmistaken smell of hot tube amps, and also on the Bayer dynamics headset when cool calm and collective.

Fleetwood mac you say

Sure, BUT ! the early years, thats where my heart is.

Great recent posts. I could be the author of them too … :slight_smile:

Unfortunately, such a great music like as Supertramp’s is not so popular now.
Most young people do not know about the existence of such groups. Another generation …

sparkyDK, I’m happy that found Taj Mahal some years ago. Pretty late, but it still happened. :slight_smile:

And just a spark to a legend with his whole career with Roxy Music - Sir Brian Ferry:

Equations…

Bowie + Lindemann + Apocalyptica = awesome

mind = blown

Whoa… why have I not seen this before??

Lessee, I know I spotted Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, David Gilmour… was that also Brian May? Bah, can’t keep the list in my head. Old age…

In a similar vein…

Still get goosebumps at some points.

I cant read music, so since i always liked the piano as a awesome instrument, so i have been thinking about playing a little piano hero.

Blues, Country, Folk music. Ray Wylie Hubbard has been around for almost 40 years.

Has anybody heard the story about Rodriguez?
An interesting movie to watch Searching for Sugar Man - Wikipedia

I think it’s on Netfix or some of the other movie channels.

Here is a live clip:

Found the movie “Searching for Sugar Man” in internet with good quality. Tomorrow I can watch it… The references are intriguingly for documentary movie… plus your recommendation Mr. Robowski:slight_smile: I’ll left my opinion then.

Thanks for sharing with us Man Without Shadow! Don’t remember how long I have not heard such a song!
It looks like Jean Michel, but it goes much farther…

I’m sure, if we spend all our life for listening of music, we would find only part of it, that we would define as its own.
So, any side help is welcome… :slight_smile:
