music in the shed

We have got a Heavy metal open-air concert at the Zoo Park in our village tonight, started out a bit ropy but the band on at the moment is bloody excellent.
Even the Lions are roaring their approval, I can hear them over the music which is impressive. Never ceases to amaze me how the sound carries.
Cheapskate Simon gets it all for free! Who needs a radio?

Sorry lots of cans and several southern comforts reliving my youth how sad is that.

That bearded guitarist is Nigel Watson, co-founder of the Peter Green Splinter Group.
I think Man of the world was one of Fleetwood Mac's finest songs, in the Then Play On album period.

Peter was a hero for me.. He did a solo album 'in the skies' in the late 70ies if I remember correctly. It wasn't really a memorable album but was so good to hear him again after many years of silence. I lived in Hamburg at that time, Peter Green (and other old guitar heroes like Roy Buchanan) still appeared to have a big following in Germany, much less so in Holland.. Had a mighty good time there in the weekends in Logo, Onkel Po, good times they were.
I had my SF2 as my daily transport and made my daily commute from Blankenese into Hamburg and back over the Elbchaussee where traffic was always moving fast. Yes time flies...

Good link, Henry!

Being lazy, I just let it play - 1970, Elton John's Your Song.  If you can ignore his chutney ferret thing, his early stuff was and still sounds so well put together, and his melodies really strong.

Hmmmm....should I post this....?

anyone listened to the New Blood album by Peter Gabriel yet?
The local radio station played "Solsbury Hill" from the album,  which is different to the previous versions.

none of us chose when to be born you cheeky, wet behind the ears, snot nose, so we are entitled to show our age - you are next!!!!!!!!!

"The Sword is an American heavy metal band that formed in Austin, Texas, in 2003." quote from wikipedia

wow, they've been around for a whole 8 years ---- you know what you can do with your 'sword' - sit on it :P :P :P :P

metallica ?  the priest? ? ? ? ?  who's that :o

i can remember buddy holly when he was still alive, went to school at the other end of penny lane right next to the strawberry fields and caught the bus home at the bus stop in the middle of the roundabout (which was actually on menlove avenue).

there have been absolutely zero genuinely new ideas/trends in modern music since about 1983. most of what we hear could just as likely have been written between 1967 and 1978.

Gotta say I can't ever remember hearing Zappa in an elevator....

I was in an elevator once and the Muzak was .... can't think of an appropriate verb ... whatevering away and I noticed a strangely familiar melody. Took quite a while to place it, and I still remember shuddering with horror when I finally got it. "Anarchy in the UK", emasculated, bowdlerised, castrated, sanitised, destroyed. I never really believed that the Sex Pistols changed society, but they sure did draw peoples' attention to the fact that 80s society had changed, mostly for the worse.
And then the ultimate insult, turning them into dentist's chair music. Somebody at Muzak must have got a few laughs back at the Mormon temple when they told the other Elders what they'd done...

mik667,

If you've seen Frank half a dozen times your age is close to mine, probably a lot older than me!

Track 3 of the FZ album is ideal when wrenching :P

yes i am an old cogger (haha) - turned 49 few months ago - yikes - at same time i like all types of music except rap/ most pop

broken hearts are for assholes -  yes is a good one 4 sure (muffin man another good garage wrencher). I used to be into FZ a lot more in my youth. While i still appreciate his songs, i kinda got burnt out on his social commentary stuff . Also after i saw him so many times i realized he wasn't the guitar player i thought we was -  not a bad one, but definitely had a bit of the diarrhea of the notes in his solos. That being said though the members of his band were always top notch and his shows were always fun.

Now the captain  will always have a special place in my library -

i would make a great deal of fun at wot the auzzie's probably listen too -  but having Nick Cave as a member of their music hall of fame negates this....
