About 10-15 years before my time mate. But don't listen to me. You absolutely smash it with your stuff.
Jimmy Cliff played in the Young Set, in the 60's it was electric absolute mayhem, and totally dangerous, it was so packed you could only see heads, arms and lots of umbrellas bouncing up and down to the beat , and screaming from the front that drown out any chance of hearing much, but some of the clips in the film that this is taken from gives you some idea of just what this guy was like on stage in his prime. he was Chris Blackwells first choice to spearhead Island Records until Bob Marley , Tosh and Bunny, caused a similar stir at the Lyceum in London mid 70's. I saw the Blue Tone tour at the Mayfair in Newcastle later on and it was OK but the music coming out of Jamaica in the 60,s and 70,s often copied but never bettered imo.
Apologies in advance. I will translate in the morning. Day 169 mate is superb, and I remember why you are doing it. I have the utmost respect for you.
No apologies needed mate, they're great. Wordle, @Blond Bombshell' s weekly quiz and your whisky posts....keeps the old brain cells working.... Cheers mate, appreciate the kind words.
A glimpse into my eclectic music taste. If I had a time machine this is rhe one concert I would choose to go back to. I know friends that were there, no more than a couple of bundred. I have seen Tangerine Dream live probably 25 times and it is an acquired taste, but I love them. Such pioneers. Was at a gig in the Lowry not long before Edgar Froese passed away and at after show drinks I was stood chatting to Brian May. He wasnt the only famous face in an audience of no more than 500. Edgar and the early band members have a huge musical legacy. Sorry, couple of glasses of red and already rambking. Probably the only daft sod on here who knows who they are!
Oldfield recorded that when he was just 19. He played all the instruments and everything overdubbed. There is only one guitar used, despite it sounding like there are lots, and that is a Fender that was from Marc Bolan. Quite a track that, and Richard Branson credits it as the launch of Virgin.
