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

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:

We keep our fingers crossed for you Aretha ...

Aretha Franklin ‘Gravely Ill’ in Detroit Hospital

Thanks Bonham again for reminding us of timeless bands like EWF…
They are indeed my favourite funk band.

And thanks for letting us know about Aretha - The Queen
I just looked it up on the news after I read this.
We can only send our best thoughts to her and wishes for recovery.
R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Add Bryan Adams and Bruce Dickinson :stuck_out_tongue:

EDIT: Lars Ulrich on the drums?

“The King is dead, long live the King!”
Probably the new king of music has occurred somewhere in the world. We’ll probably hear about him …

But now, let’s give our tribute to the Queen we lost today!

Thanks for all the GREAT videos.

My claim to fame is that I met Johnny Winter Three times in my home town of Phoenixville, PA.at the Colonial Theater. My Jimi Hendrix Pictures got me back stage ALL 3 times! My brother took them on April 12, 1969 @ the Spectrum in Philly. Of course Johnny played w/ Jimi and loved him!

People were getting autographs[20 second encounter] and it was more important to me to spend ~ 3 minutes with him,show him the pictures of Jimi and talk about him and Jimi.

The other is I met James Allen Hendrix Twice in his home in Seattle,WA. He is Jimi’s father! The year was 2000, Two years before Al passed away.

Hello again Bonham,

Indeed a sad say. Aretha’s suffering has ended.
As Don McLean once said “The day the music died”

Wolfdog - incredible memories for you - thanks for sharing

Great doco. He’s coming to Oz soon. Mrs wants to go see.

I grew up in South Africa in the 70’s and remember the popularity of Rodriguez and the life & times as described in the movie.
The one thing they didn’t really mention was that he was also quite popular in Australia and toured here in 1979 and 1981.

I think mentioning Oz would have ruined the fairy tale narrative

Yup. Came across his music and his story some years back. Quite a story.

Jose Feliciano - Gypsy

Live stream concert from Paul McCartney should start any moment.

What an opening song!!! Hard Days Night

This is a little different for this thread, but several of us here at casa manithree are really into jazz. My daughter recently introduced me to the sounds of Polyrhthmics and EMEFE two bands she saw at the Telluride Jazz Festival.

Oh, what the heck, here is that same daughter playing barefoot jenga, then introducing and performing with the Hooligans Brass Band.

Marillion - Kayleigh

Simon & Garfunkel - The Boxer

Sparks - This Town Ain’t Big Enough For Both Of Us

Thanks again for the memories Bonham

I had that Sparks album but gave a lot of my records away when I moved countries.
The vocals of Russell Mael sound very similar to Freddie Mercury.
Both bands released their first albums around about the same time.

Good Lyrics!!
