What music are you listening to ?

This one just reeks of that delicious Sixties vibe ....

From a distant age when having a big nose was a vital fashion accessory
for anyone seeking success ........ ( is that Pete Townsend on the drums ? )

 

Watch at your own risk

 

Here's a cheery one for a Monday morning:

 

i love that soo much, really glad you posted.

 

Soggy Bottom Boys do it better...

 

I'm not entirely sure of the meaning of better in this context...

A highly polished & glib Hollywood film production using a highly polished off screen bunch of musicians by a highly polished group of actors who are acting the part of constant sorrow with a lead who is miming & not singing.

OR

Sung acapella by someone who was a coal miner, construction labourer and farmer for much of his life and suffered from asthma & emphysema and, I suspect, had a better idea of what a life of constant sorrow is (than any of us).

 

Nothing so deep, just sounds better to me.

 

Thank you Lauren Laverne for this new-to-me 1978 gem

 

Even if you detest the group , you've surely got to love Lukather's guitar work ....
..... or possibly not ?

 

Some say that this song was a dig at John Lennon and his hippy idealism
.... if so , it's got a very spooky prophecy in the lyrics

"Unhand that gun begone
There's no one to fire upon"

and also.....

"Anybody on the street
Has murder in his eyes"

Have a listen , with that in mind .....
