Off Topic Nowt wrong with a Thursday music thread..

Absolutely one of the best these boys..

Ginger Baker and Keith Moon, in my eyes the best ever drummers ever with Corky Laing not far behind...

Jack Bruce is simply one of the best musicians ever imo..

Enjoy and try and explain what the 'White Room" was if you can? .. The oldies might know this like..

 

Save the best till last..

I love my music me..

 

I have always liked these for a bit of late night easy listening

 

I have never been one for easy listening in the 'bread' mode but I respect your choice..

With me it was always about the drums, base and lead with good vocals and for me 'The Cream' were along with Peter Greens early Fleetwood Mac the ambassadors of this in the late 60's early 70's

 

V-joe still listen to the cream on the way to work nearly every morning and on the way back - quality does not age

 

This might interest you, Joe. Do you remember the pretty much easy listening 'Chicago'? Well, they weren't always that way. They were originally called Chicago Transit Authority, and, particularly in drums, christ they could shift a bit!. This is 'Beginnings' from their first album, released in 1968. The drums really warm up from about the half-way mark. Have a listen.

If it wasn't for bad luck......

 

Having said that just spent 6hrs on a very drunken flight into Heathrow ready for (a very nervous....hate the feckers) weekend and got an 80s thing on......just a little different

 

One of my favourite all time records is Groundhogs on the split album haven't a clue how to put it on though I will ask our lad to show me, thick or what unless you could stick it on for me cheers mate hope everything is well with you and your lass.

 

New Wave is my genre, but I do appreciate a wide range of music, and often tune into classical radio channels when working night..

 

Just for you mate..

Remember, this was music of an era..

We like to remember our stuff too ..

and this

 

Hard to believe the memories that brings back to me mate. Cheers and Cheers again.

 

The Groundhogs were a very good live band, they backed John Lee Hooker one time .

 

I am sure Tony Mc Phee is still about on his own now must be about a 100

 

The stand out one man musician was Jethro Tulls Ian Anderson - a enigmatic flautist songwriting one off imo
But as had been covered in this thread so many great rock blues bands & musicians in 60 - 80's -
Jethro Tull first name painted on my school haversac - total class group imo

 

Loved Cat Squirrel

 

Many classic songs - Locomotive Breath is the stand out rock ballad for me -
