To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

When I sold my vinyl collection, parting with that triple album was painful.
I had another triple album, Neil Young's Decade, from which I'll play this:
There's some fine guitar work on Cortez the Killer.

This guy could play guitar too...
A Bach organ piece transposed for guitars...

Guitar Trek - gotta love that name!
How about a 60s TV theme? <chortles>
Time for some rock theatre, as only Mr Mojo Risin' could conjure...
Tangerine Dream is a German electronic music band founded in 1967 by Edgar Froese. The group has seen many personnel changes over the years, with Froese having been the only. mybkexperience mcdvoice

Phaedra is an excellent album! And welcome to SSC, amigo!
I own only one DVD - Zachariah, the first electric western.
Â
Nirvana? Auummmm!
Buffalo Springfield
Good band, Buffalo Springfield. Richie Furay went on to form Poco with among others Randy Meisner, who went on to form Eagles. I have a soft spot for Poco and early Eagles, and I also love Linda Ronstadt. She does Desperado better than anyone...
To my mind, the album Desperado is Eagles at their finest.
Peaceful Easy Feeling is from their first album, but Witchy Woman is the best track on it...
A little bluegrass is needed, methinks...
Seeing as it's Earthday, I'd better play Albedo 0.39 by Vangelis...
🤣

I will never be able to listen to Final countdown again without think about the Floopotron version now.
For some strange reason, it reminded me of Popcorn, and the Swedish Chef.

A beautiful snake, is the copperhead.
A virtual "Janis" brick through a virtual "modern music" window...
She's a whole lot of woman, with a whole lot of problems - and I'm surprised she's not covered JJ's Ball and Chain.
Here's JJ with her take on Summertime...
Mott The Hoople (from their first album, before they went all pop/commercial)...

The album cover is a colourised version of Escher's Reptiles, a print of which hangs on my wall.
There is also a connection to King Crimson who I know almost nothing about
In the Court of the Crimson King: An Observation by King Crimson is one of the finest albums in my collection. It is arguably the first, and probably the most influential, Prog Rock album ever recorded. Epitaph and 21st Century Schizoid Man are the most well-known songs on it, but the album as a whole is a masterpiece! The original band line-up was only together for that one debut album.
Being an old drummer, I'm especially fond of the percussion on it - a quite unique style!

Â
I think I'll play Moonchild...

The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys was probably Traffic's best album!
Time for a classic rock anthem...
