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

Thanks Robowski that reminded us of the Doobie Brothers.

I will never forget their first song that impressed me - Long Train Running. I was about fourteen then.

I had it, and “Listen to the Music” on my Tesla tape recorder.
In fact, they were one of my first recordings that I made my own by a friend. Seems illegal from the current point of view. :slight_smile:

I love the Doobie Brothers. They bring back so many fond memories of a late friend who passed away this past March at the age of 65. He’s the one who turned me on to them.

Rodolphe Burger & Olivier Cadiot :

Chet Baker - Every Time We Say Goodbye

Chet Baker - Alone Together
Chet Baker - I’ve Never Been In Love Before

Eagles - Take It Easy

This song brings a lot of memories …

A long time ago when I was a student, I and my friends were playing in a casino.
I remember that I had lost about $4K at one time.:money_mouth_face:
After all, I managed to get back, I bought a golden Longines, and never went to a casino anymore.

This song and the quoted refrain were my favorites then. :slight_smile:

This is a great thread. Thanks Bonham !

Agreed

Wow… Thanks for the evaluation friends!

And now, for something completely different.

Agree great thread,many good memories of some forgotten bands.As I have not posted before I will mention my all time favourite band Little Feat with Lowell George,well worth a listen for those who may not know them.

Great band. Lowell George was another front-man who went to the great beyond well before his time.

Lowell George played on Bill Wyman’s Monkey Grip. (1974). I love that album.

Hjeh, I posted that here or in t’other thread. Also listened to it an embarrassing number of times.

Glad I’m not the only one. :laughing:

I think I have said this before…
But here it is again : Thanks Bonham for the most interesting thread.
You meet people here with all kinds of stories about their favourite musos, and you hear songs that you’ve never heard before.

“Eagles – Take It Easy”

First track on first Eagles album, and first song I ever heard by them…and one of their best!

What is this thread about?

Edit-Never mind I figured it out.

I hope no one felt affected by the above salty YT comment and I totally agree with it on the music of the Village People. :+1:
Music hits like In the Navy, Go West, YMCA, Can’t Stop The Music, Macho Man etc…

Barclay James Harvest - Child Of The Universe

Barclay James Harvest have the unique ability to recall good forgotten memories. :slight_smile:
BJH - For your Love
BJH - Doctor Doctor
BJH - Back to the Wall
BJH - In my Life

John Lee Hooker and Canned Heat - Whiskey and Wimmen

I have that on vinyl along with all the original Canned Heat lineup minus Frank Cook, the original drummer that played at The Monterey International Pop Music Festival in 1967. In my opinion, Adolfo “Fito” de la Parra was their only real drummer. Larry Taylor on bass, Henry Vestine on guitar, Alan Wilson vocals, guitar and harp, Bob Hite vocals. Yep, I was and still am a big fan of Canned Heat. I will say, Harvey Mandell was great with Canned Heat as well.
