Foamy T. Squirrel Posted March 28, 2021 Author Posted March 28, 2021 So here's one for my friend Harley. And a few other guys here who understand the particular trade. And George gives a great concert, too. Like super-great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0U-ermF-tQA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvOG7eTY0ks 1

Few music groups can be said to have changed the methods and structure of pop music, and this group included the Stones. Christmas? Line up for the new Beatles album at the record store. New Years? Line up for the new Stones album at the record store. We older folks remember such things. Now, where's that old 4-track tape player I stored in the garage? I have all the Beatles LP's(vinyl) stored in my attic unfortunately too scratched due to teenage misuse to be playable now.

Of course not, but that's what happened with Abbey Road, #1 in 1969 and #1 in 2019. In fact i will say since the 90's there has been only 1 band who genuinely changed things, including affecting people's lives and how those around them make music by immediate influence. Nirvana. Watch out there regarding Nirvana. And oh, Jeopardy. And Madonna. And Michael Jackson. I'm a really big fan of Weird Al.

Their "unplugged" session is particularly memorable. 1

Go ahead and link to your favorite Nirvana song. We're here to share music, afterall. And we jailbroke the juke box here in our Old Dude's saloon. You don't need to put in a dime anymore. Roll it. 1
Foamy T. Squirrel Posted March 28, 2021 Author Posted March 28, 2021 I'll just leave this beer here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLnPd7lzT4g 1
Foamy T. Squirrel Posted March 28, 2021 Author Posted March 28, 2021 OK, so we're on a roll here. That's cool. Some music experts credit this band with ushering in the "heavy metal" sound. But they specialized in American blues and English ballads. For my Brit buddies, here's a traditional fun song for blokes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_txpe6Ie2Nk 1

He once said "We gave birth to Heavy Metal? It should have been aborted"
Foamy T. Squirrel Posted March 28, 2021 Author Posted March 28, 2021 Next time I come here I think I'll post Glen Miller or Tommy Dorsey. Nothing wrong with big band swing.
