Best British band of its era. Saw them twice, Chapman passing spliffs out into the audience. Have all their albums, I think. Burlesque is probably their best loved song. Earthy vocals mixed with excellent muscians mixing Brit Blues with Folk. Had a sense of humour on their albums as well.
Yeah, loved them. Still not sleeping, this won't help, but it's nice. [video=youtube;tqzvBmIcAVo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqzvBmIcAVo[/video]
Missus is watching one of the endless bloody talent shows on TV so I'm wearing headphones and listening to Blue Mink. Stay with Me had to be one of the love songs of the 70s. And Gasoline Alley Bred shows off their vocal talents.

Did anyone see this last night? [video=youtube;ZsNlcr4frs4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsNlcr4frs4&feature=my_liked_videos&list=LL7vIrUn1LohtO6nrZZhUflQ[/video] I guess it's not just the fat-boys on the pitch that kicking arse!!
[video=youtube;S7YdZuFTjpo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7YdZuFTjpo[/video]Not much happening, so thought I might resurrect this: Helping me to hopefully sleep, it's "Nulla in mundo pax sincera" by Abba. No, sorry, Vivaldi. The wonderful Emma Kirkby.
Having a bit of a Beethoven moment tonight. The Berlin Philharmonic under Herbert Von Karajan. IMHO, they were the best under him. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBfKXHoSvDM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o-Onn92w5c
Total change now to my all time favourite composer. A bit of a nasty piece of work, but by Christ, he could write some music. I could listen to Wagner all day. My ambition is one day to go to the Bayreuth Festival. I won't be holding my breath though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZZYNKKBPAY
Wait until you try the last link Gandy. You might need to turn the sound up at the end though I think it was Woody Allen who said, "I can't listen to any Wagner without getting the urge to invade Poland".
If I remember rightly, the last part of Beethoven's 5th was used for the Lowenbrau advert a while ago.
