For those of you in mid-winter, I'm sending out some Summertime (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzNEgcqWDG4)
What is your favorite music?
:cheers:
I am in Canada so it is Summer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWXcjYNZais&feature=PlayList&p=E9E6BA56CF53AC44&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=30) here as well. These are all from my era as well being an old fart.
Then like me, you must be suffering from Canned Heat (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hf0Dm-OaTNk)
I'm an old fart too. :drink:
Some days I feel like an old fart! My tastes vary a bit; I'm currently listening (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxmyXAR_4fY) to a band you've probably never heard of...
Anyway you can follow my listening at http://last.fm/user/shipw/ (http://last.fm/user/shipw/)
I like it!! +1 Don't Hesitate (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eymBZF9gIkw) to post more.
hey Wikiwill... Bachelors from Prague dont make you an old fart.... !!
My fave (thing to do ) in music at the moment is a number of remixes I am working on of my favourite Talking heads tracks and some remixes/ sample work of selected songs from people ranging from Madonna (who doesn't know her name), to Angelique Kidjo ( a surprisingly funky African pop Goddess..)
If I can remember my log on info for my "Myspace" Artists page, I'll post a link when I upload "my latest work".

... showing your age there Dataman..... :wink
though I remember playing Dire Straits as loud as my Sanyo "home studio" would handle, out over the beach at Nth Cronulla... :blush1:
Thanks for that one Dataman. Dire Straits is one of my favourite bands, up there with The Police. It's likely that Money For Nothing was the first recorded music I bought, I just can't remember :blush1:
H&C - another favourite (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4H2Dl4bfySM)
Good one. I like threads like this 'cause I get to listen to songs I would otherwise never encounter. :thumbsup:

Not that I'm suggesting MK is anywhere near past it (did he ever sing on key), but that's what Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XVVZPefbR4) is for :D

Woodtock is 40 years old today 15 Aug 09. I was 19 at the time, and had just missed out on Nation Service, a lottery I am glad I lost. I joined the regular army in 72 but Australia pulled out of Vietnam not long after my first posting to a combat unit. Back to when I was 19, I was living in a big 5 bedroom house in Canberra, down the road from the Jamison Inn in Macquarie. I had long, long hair and side burns, and was lean and mean and worked hard and played harder. The Jamison Inn, Wellington Pub ( No longer there), the Ainslie( was converted to the canberra bus station), and the Dickson pub were the stomping grounds. There were 3 guys and up to 6 girls living in the house, more after parties. One of the best periods of my life.

What a great post! Thanks so much for for that. I know every one of those songs like I know my National Anthem. +1 fer'sure! Far out and solid, Bro! :rofl:
I hope you partied for me too. :worship I missed all the big events of 1969 (like the moon landing too). When Woodstock happened I was in Nam ... probably in some sh!t-hole boonies West of Da Nang. I knew the moon landing was going to happed but did not know it was sucessful for a day or two. I knew nothing about Woodstock until weeks later. All-in-all, I'd rather have been at Woodstock. :angry:
I missed out on nation service for Vietnam which was a lottery in Australia. Te government drew out a few dates, maybe 4 from each month and if you were 19 and born on those dates you were in and after a few weeks training you were in the mud in nam.
I joined the regular army in 72 but Australia pulled out of Vietnam later that year, but I stayed in for 22 years.
I would not liked to have been in your boots.
My day is done (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-U9bKhXyNGg). Better days to come. :coolgleam:
