I went looking for Human League's "Marianne" for your lovely granddaughter (a stonker!). but sadly I came up empty-handed... (One of these days, I'll fathom out how to upload stuff... )

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.
Ah! Now you are talking. The first 3 albums are just fantastic.
And all recorded with out synthesisers or computers just guitars, amps and Hammond organs. That might not sound like a big thing but listen to ‘The Launch’ on Third Stage and try to work out how it was done without the aid of a computer. It will seriously make the hairs on the back of you neck stand up.

Only messin' Prospero. It's my strange sense of humour. I feel like I have upset you, and I'm very sorry if I have.

Well, I'm very sorry if I gave the immpression that you had upset me. Nothing of the sort I promise you and no umbrage taken whatsoever.

I used to play the records my sister left at home when she was at university - one or two of the artists stayed with me and one remains my all time favourite.
I like the Blackmore's night version of D&R, but if you want to see something a bit offbeat, try Judas Priests version

I love Joan Baez - got a chance to see her live at the Llangollen International Eisteddfod (eye-steth-fod) ('th' as in 'this' as opposed to 'thin') last year - bought a ticket for a best seat, well in advance, but with one thing and another couldn't make it - sent the ticket to my sister, who lives not far away from Llangollen, she couldn't drive back for more than an hour after the show she was so overcome.
One more - I won't be surprised if someone screams 'sacrilege' but anyway - have some! enjoy the slide show at least!

Why not share some of your APP faves? G'wan... ya know ya want to!!!!!
Question: can someone tell me what it is with Brothers in Arms? I know so many people who are absolutely nuts about it, but it just leaves me cold...
