Secret Oktober rules
While sporting the best summer outfits in recorded history
It's Halen with Jump. I prefer Roddy Frame on this one youtu.be/COtZZmWKcRI?...
24. Ramble On. Robert Plant meets a fair maiden in the depths of Mordor, splits #24 #memorialdaycountdown
A small Panasonic AM/FM radio c. 1983. It has a jaunty cord and a partially removed sticker that promises a 2-year limited warranty.
Behold: my outdoor sound system. When I karaoke'd Kansas's"Carry On" I realized how many guitar solos it has - a lot #53 #memorialdaycountdown
Love a "fictional band" song - Bennie and the Jets at 102 #memorialdaycountdown
103. Major Tim floats into infinite darkness in Space Odyssey. I *love* melancholy space #memorialdaycountdown
Don't fancy a #memorialdayclassicrockcountdown? I got you. Depeche Mode's 101 (by moi) is now an audiobook! Available on Spotify, Kindle and Overdrive πΉ
104. New Year's Day. Stirring Irish drama. "Gold is the reason for the wars we wage." Still true, Bono. BTW, The lads didn't ride the horses through the snow in the video - teen girls did because U2 were too cold youtu.be/jeYCyCaK_5k?...
Jack and Diane. *discreetly turns down volume* #memorialdaycountdown
"The calliope crashed to the ground" and I'm thinking that's a pretty minor musical disaster? Not impressed. See: Smoke on the Water
109. Wish You Were Here. At some point I realized "hey Dark Side of the Moon is actually a pretty good album?!" And "Wait, I kind of like Led Zeppelin?" and "OK, American Beauty is one of my favorite albums?!??" Surprises abound
110. What the heck is "The Sultans of Swing" about? Granted, I could 'google' it but I prefer conjecture and puzzlement
112. AC/DC honors all people in pre-rocking situations.
For Those About to Rock: We Salute You
Here comes Clapton with "I Shot the Sheriff" aww no
#163 on the countdown and Foreigner is making their *fourth* appearance aww yeah Baltimore youtu.be/CK6jKL2qWxo?...
Listened to this about 10 times already this a.m.
youtu.be/ftOMU4IzLFE?...
As I kid I listened to Magical Mystery Tour while sending time-travel ESP messages to The Beatles (that is, 4 or 5 Magicians) asking them to roll up and take me away to marvellous places. I may or may not have revived this practice youtu.be/l8WMGBuNaus?...
I feel Cindy Wilson's barbaric yawp (at 3.00) in my very soul youtu.be/XHLFdptpMGA?...
"Theme One" by George Martin commissioned for BBC 1 and BBC 2 in 1967. Bracing, clear-eyed, glorious... even a bit "chopping onions" youtu.be/wZ0UrwusWcM?...
When I saw "Tea + Beatles" I was ALL IN. β€οΈ
It's not actually "faith" that you should reach out and touch, Jesus folk
Poppins *shudder*
Mary's top song on Spotify for 2024 is It's Working by MGMT
Checks out. However, I don't have lists for my cassette and CD listening
