Old School Musicianship… Rock and Roll.. Jazz… Blues… Big Band even…

A friend sent this to me a while back, I had never heard it before .

Rock & Roll Girls by Alvin Lee

 

[BrendaBear]

Now I need to hear Carlos....



Santana - Black Magic Woman

 

[Mrtenant]

 

[BrendaBear]

We need some motor city madman going on here....

Ted Nugent - Stranglehold

 

[BrendaBear]

Can't You Hear Me Knocking is my absolute favorite song from The Stones... soooo cool!!!

 

[BrendaBear]

I know, I know. I always say this thread is for the popular versions of songs we all know... and it is.... but... I love this song...

So just crank up the volume and enjoy the ride..

Alice Cooper – Detroit City

(yeah, Brenda's in a mood.... )

 

[TANSTAAFL58]

More.. I need more.... and loud....

The fact this band is also Canadian, is totally a coincidence.

Triumph - When The Lights Go Down

Wait... I mean.... that's for @TANSTAAFL58 ! Yeah... that's what I meant....

Wow! Two Canadian bands from the 70s in a row. I'm impressed. I saw Triumph at a small club in Mississauga, then at my high school. Yep, I'm old.


Here's another one. I don't know how successful Max Webster was in the States, but here's a good one. A million Vacations

The lead guitarist, Kim Mitchell went on to a lot of solo success here. He practically owned The Kee to Bala (a club in a resort area north of Toronto) for years and was a DJ on T.O.'s hard rock station Q10.

Lager and Ale, a classic logic problem that reared its head nightly "back in the day" when most bars in Ontario had ONE Lager (usually Molson Canadian or Labatt's Blue) and ONE Ale (Usually Molson Export or Labatt's Fifty) on tap. Draft was embarrassingly cheap

It came in glasses like this, 8 ounces to the LCBO line, less than a buck



Late weekend night at the Bojar Grill, I got decisions to be made between Lager and Ale... Take it Kim.

Led Zeppelin - Bring It on Home

 

[BrendaBear]

Okay.... I absolutely love this song. Everything about it talks to my heart.... the cool drum work, the lyrics, the guitar work... the bass work... oh yeah!

 

[Newbieincali]

Who called you out ?
Brenda ?? I must have missed something...

 

[BrendaBear]

Who called you out ?
Brenda ?? I must have missed something...

Just in a private message... and it was all meant in fun...

 

[Newbieincali]

Back to the music ,, y'all enjoy ...

Birthday wishes to Lita Ford, born this day, September 19, 1958. Part of the Runaways, she did pretty good for herself. A couple of hits, but her albums IMHO are actually pretty good, lots of deep tracks worth checking out.

Lita Ford - Kiss Me Deadly

 

[bonnietaylor200a]

I feel like dancing today and who better to sing a great song

Bad Girls by Donna Summers

 

[BrendaBear]

I could go for some dancing around today too.... but I'm thinking a bit older tune....

Raspberries - Go All The Way

 

[bonnietaylor200a]

Let's just dance thru the decades!!

Evolution of dance by years

Or we could just burn the place down

Hot Blooded by Foreigner

 

[Rj_1954]

Piano Man - 1973
Song by Billy Joel

 

[BrendaBear]

Not the original version, but oh so perfect in the movie.....


X - Wild Thing

 

[TANSTAAFL58]

I love a good hook. A piece of music that you instantly know at the first notes or the opening chords, like say "Lola" by the Kinks

Or Warren Zevon, "Werewolves of London"

(Yeah, I played that last week. Sue me.)

OR Paranoid by Black Sabbath

 

[TANSTAAFL58]

I'm just gonna leave this here. Doug and the Slugs, "No No No"

Ringo, "No No Song"

 

[BrendaBear]

Ringo, "No No Song"

I love the no no song! Haven’t heard that in a while.

The Proclaimers
