On the other hand, when visiting Titan...

A tribute for Brian Jones, of sorts, by the Kinks!

[Cody]

Talking of Rolling Stones, in the parish of Rollright (in Oxfordshire) stand the Rollright Stones...

@cody
Traffic, with Steve Winwood?
Ah yes, I remember him. I also remember him in Blind Faith. Shame him, Ginger, Eric and Ric Grech only made one album.

[Cody]

Before Blind Faith, before Traffic, he was in the Spencer Davis Group.
A very talented musician, and Traffic were a great band.

Chicago Transit Authority did a good cover of that.

[Geraldine]

I don't think Steve was ever in a bad band!

[Geraldine]

Next, someone I've been listening to alot lately, Mike de Velta. Here is an original song by him. Just let it take you on a journey...

[Cody]

I like that!

[Cody]

This was "borrowed" and became a classic rock number. I'd wager you'll know which one within seconds.

The IABD album is a cracker, especially if you like a bit of violin with your rock.
Talking of rock violin...

I saw Curved Air back in '70 - 'twas an awesome gig!

[Geraldine]

@cody I did indeed. So this is where DP got it from? Hope they recognised them.
Kinda reminds me of this...

<chuckles> That court case is still rumbling on, I believe.

[Geraldine]

Now, something for you to listen to while going after those naughty Thargies in Oolite!

[Cody]

Talking of going after things in Oolite, I used to hunt bounty-hunters...

[Geraldine]

@cody
It's an option Cody, but where to go from there?

[Geraldine]

With things as they are these days.....I oftentimes find myself listening to songs that were written in hard times gone by. It's funny, a song written in the early 20th century can still say so much about today. In every sense, a true classic.

[Cody]

Java Jive? Shoot me the pot, and I'll pour me a shot!
How about Sixteen Tons - a 40s 'classic! I owe my soul to the company store!

[Cody]

As a bonus, have a Willie Nelson classic, with Emmylou Harris - she can sing. Saw her once at the Hammersmith Odeon - great gig!
