Even better than the real bin...

Saw this lot years ago: highly original and very entertaining show! More clips on YT!

PS... That's my favourite track by Kirsty McColl (may she be at peace). Beautifully designed shoes - preferably with stiletto heels - are one of my major predilections. For me, the real stars of Sex and the City were Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blahnik!)

My top five for today
kansas - carry on my wayward son

Oasis-The Importance Of Being Idle

Sweet Home Alabama

Gipsy Kings Hotel California 1990

George Harrison - Here Comes The Sun

All the best
Brian

Sweet, Brian, especially the George Harrison number.

Only two from me tonight. Both Dire Straits tracks, and very firm favourites:

The first, from Love Over Gold (my favourite DS album), is especially dedicated to all who know what cube farms are about, and one in the eye for the doom & gloom merchants. (If you're not familiar with this, the lyric is very clever, and well worth a listen!)

Industrial Disease

The second, from their eponymous album, is my favourite Dire Straits track of all, and definitely in my seventies Top 100. Enjoy!

Water of Love

Can't beat blues. It's the music of life...

Is it just me, or is there a dearth of music of this caibre being produced nowadays? (Genuine question.)

We're just bad cheetahs!

One of my favourite Clapton tracks, live, with (IMO) one of the best Prince's Trust line-ups...

And while we're on Erics....

Or this classic number?

It's more Wagner for you my girl!

and no skipping bits

Moglet · Post by **Moglet** » Sun 23 Mar, 2008 4:25 am

See your Wagner, and raise you Borodin!*

(No skippin' bits for you either, matey

)

(Quite a good interpretation, but if you want the best, find a recording directed by Bernstein. Different gear...

Edit: There now - got distracted trying to find a Bernstein version, but no cigar...

Post by **prospero** » Sun 23 Mar, 2008 4:33 am

Where is it then? No betting blind.

I have a Stravinsky up my sleeve.

Post by **prospero** » Sun 23 Mar, 2008 4:54 am

OK. I'll see your Borodin and raise you a Purcell

Read 'em and weep.

Methinks a little Khachaturian?

Eeeee! She really is thin!

I shall bid thee sweet dreams with a little soothing from the pen of Schubert... The Disney animations were very, very beautiful...

Like an anorexic wippet.....

Bit of the old Ludwig van

Lament of the Three Marys

Plaintive sean nós air for Eastertide, sung as Gaeilge by the gifted singer and musician, Iarla Ó Lionáird. (A couple of years ago, I used to sing occasionally at a seisiún with a lad who went to school with him: imagine having someone with such a heavenly voice in your school choir!

I'd have been queuing up to go to Mass...)

Iarla is also a member of the Afro Celt Sound System (one of my top 20 recording artists of all time). Snippets of their music are used regularly on telly, but here's a full track, again as Gaeilge (mostly!), and as contemporary as it gets!

Éireann

Perhaps now members may get a better idea of the grá I have for the Celtic tongues: they are so incredibly musical and poetic!

If you'd like to hear more of Iarla's solo work, I can heartily recommend The Seven Steps to Mercy (Seacht gCoiscéim na Trócaire) on the RealWorld label.

Hated Paper Lace, but Grahame's post did put me in mind of someone who did a cover of the above....

Back in the days when he was a one-hit-wonder...

The hit we bought him for his fiftieth.... (got to Number 9 despite the best efforts of the record companies.

If not for their skullduggery, it would have been Number 1 ...

)

Unplugged and Under The Covers...

Scenes from a typical gig...

Audience Participation Time!

Happy days in the Cornie Bin!

John is an absolute honey, and a great night's entertainment!

Now my favourites go back to when hair was big and harmony & musical excellence was in vogue......

More than a feeling I like this one for the line 'I see my Marianne walking the world'...... my same name grandaughter is just in her teens and look out world! She's taking over!

Man I'll never be This combines a slideshow of one of my favourite artists with my top Boston tracks. Incredible guitar harmonics.

Gates of Babylon One of the most unsung songs in the universe - incredibly stirring & theatrical heavy metal, I'm surprised this wasn't more popular.

Spit · Post by **Spit** » Sun 23 Mar, 2008 11:42 pm

Another one with good guitar harmonics, but the main attraction is the incredible drumming - you don't get it like that nowadays! A bit of an Irish theme to catch the moggies eye too! Bad reputation

Same group, same incredible guitars, bigger Irish theme, Emerald

Definitely a moggy song Whiskey in the jar
