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

[BrendaBear]

I'm not likely to post much from The Eagles, but this song speaks to me.

I can't imagine why.

Eagles - Witchy Woman

 

[Rj_1954]

A blast from the Past...
I found this in my brother's collection because I was only four at the time.

Be Bob A-Lula - 1958
Song by Gene Vincent

Since Rj played that moldy oldy I have one which I actually danced to a 100 years ago

Have you ever met a real Be Bop A Lula Rj?

SIDE NOTE: How old is the demographic on lit? Seems to be, like fans of anything literary, aging. Yes?

And to be clear, I'm not fishing for ages. Just checking to see if anybody has the data.

Why would you think we'd be talking about that here? On a music thread???

Granted... the musicianship in this song is.... well there isn't much... but it is fun, and it's Friday so....

The Kingsmen - Louie Louie

 

[BrendaBear]

We need some Sam & Dave.... I think I heard Isaac Hayes wrote this song... might have played on it and/or produced it to.

I looked it up - written by Isaac Hayes and Dave Porter. Isaac didn't produce it.

Sam & Dave - Hold On, I'm Comin'

 

[BrendaBear]

It's Friday.... let's crank this up....

Blues Traveler - Maybe I'm Wrong

 

[BrendaBear]

Time for some Brits...

...and I'm thinking about Him again...

Bad Company - Feel Like Makin' Love

 

[BrendaBear]

No special meaning here... I just dig this song.

Fleetwood Mac - Oh Well (Pt. 1)

 

[BrendaBear]

Time for some Billy Squier!!!

Billy Squier - In The Dark

 

[BrendaBear]

Wow... I just stumbled onto this... I haven't heard this in forever... wow...

Krokus - Screaming in the Night

 

[Newbieincali]

Lonely is the night...
Billy Squire..
See y'all Monday

 

[BrendaBear]

Time for some classic blues, from the master.

B.B. King - Ain't Nobody Home

 

[Elmo_Lincoln]

I heard this song a couple days ago for the first time in many years, and I had forgotten how hard BTO could rock. The opening bass line is really cool and the crunching guitars make it. I used to hear it a lot in the mid-to-late 70s on FM radio, but those days are long gone.

I was reading up on it and apparently Randy Bachman thought it was strange that Yes had named their 1971 album "Fragile" and that there was nothing fragile about BTO's music, nor is there anything fragile about this song!

Bachman-Turner Overdrive - Not Fragile

The Thunder Rolls - 1990
Song by Garth Brooks

Okay RJ, my dear friend.... you want to Garth it out... on a Friday night???

Dude. Mic drop, right here. Crank this up.... it's more Friday night than ... Friday night itself.

Ain't Goin' Down ('Til The Sun Comes Up) by Garth Brooks

No RJ... louder than that. The neighbors are still sleeping.

Saturday morning.... calls for some early Beatles greatness

The Beatles - Bad Boy

 

[Elmo_Lincoln]

I saw the below comic this morning so I had to listen to some Hendrix!

Jimi Hendrix - Machine Gun

OMG! I love this song! I never knew what it was called. As a kid, learning the piano, I used to try to play this from memory.

Thanks Bonnie for posting this!

My love reminded of this.... and years ago, I used to play this in a garage band on guitar.

So cool!!!
