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.

I feel I must warn you about this one. It's one of those songs that sticks to your brain and never leaves. If you listen to it you may find it playing in your head for days.

O MG! Sorry Alan! So what is your story, anyway? 😆

Here's a sentiment that I think all of us on this forum share.

That's an extended version, not the one from the TV show. I think it describes most of us rather well.

If you're interested in Barry Gray's music, I found it here.

If you're a fan of old Gerry Anderson shows like Supercar, Thunderbirds and Stingray, you'll probably like this.

Four Way Street was one of my most treasured albums, and I love Wishbone Ash.

I'll throw in some more prog!

Quicksilver Messenger ServiceQuicksilver Messenger Service 😎

about arthur brown,

i don't know what's more worse, people like in the 60's who don't have no idea what's going on in front of them and was easy to shock, or people like today that will pass by every show, "...yet another nuts gone musician..." and you can't shock them with nothing, because of their lusciousness.

i guess the latter

For those who, like me, love Kurt Vonnegut's 'sci-fi', one of Scotland's finest singer/songwriters - The Sirens of Titan.

@geraldine

the minne singing is simply great

i remember a funny fact, al-ʿūd (arab.) means lute and comes from wood, wood - ud, not very far from each other, no? (while "lute" is a derivative of al-ʿūd)

talking about music... a american native composer stated once "it's remarkable that in the english dictionary music comes right after mushroom".

i always thought there should be something useful to do with a floppy drive. change the stepping rate and it starts to sound...

great finding.

i would like a "junk orchestra", other peripherals are noisy to, plus some clicking of old relays, all controlled with my vintage A500, should be possible...

i'm sure i would get a gig at the ETH aula, they will freak out on it i guess.

where is my soldering iron, let's start it now...

really this is blowing my mind, ideas come in like a storm... motors, air pressure controllers, moving parts which influence capacivity...

that's really "steam punked", thank you geraldine :ugeek:

imagine a wall of relays, clicking together from different positions on the wall...

by alternating the frequency it should even be possible to make something like "real sound".

Dark Star, played by the Relay Orchestra 😆


[/hr]

i guess it's from rockpalast, all bands played then there on the famous "Orange" PA system

i know at least one band who still use the "jimi hendrix" setup (and one left over, thrown away guitar neck)

it's "More Experience" from Switzerland.

it's best to see them performing in a club

ahh, and i know a second one, maybe he's even better, but usually he plays for free on the lake zurich quai.

sometimes he performs at "neugasshof" in zurich, it was our hells club, now it's a "private" billard club, but the folks are still the same (as long as they're still alive).

we had a band in switzerland performing music like this, "Pfuri, Gorps & Kniri"

skiffle, yes

this one is no music, it shows only a few bunkers, the second location in the clip (ennetberge), is close to my hometown.

I saw Curved Air twice in my hometown back in 70/71, I think... brilliant on stage!
