"As I look across the bay watching the beautiful sunset on this early Summer evening, while reading this week's letters and dedications to Kasey Kasem, I can't help but follow the breeze and drift away..."

Love your work James!

What a revelation, great song.

Dedication song

Great song
Could it be the song we play before home games?

 

[Zouz Kitty]

It always gets me when Christopher Plumber sings this song and Julie Andrews joins him...

Me too!!! I'm still waiting for my Captain Von Trapp, to sweep me off my feet

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Here's one for Hell Kitty and Teriyakicat and Monica. The three sisters:



The original and the best.

 

[Zouz Kitty]

And another:

As you suggest, allrighty, I listened to the Amy Winehouse songs again - love Back to Black + these -








This just dissolves me into floods of tears -

Mine have all long gone except the first - Ringo. I decided to keep one for nostalgic reasons.

I still have the first record I ever bought - Rolling Stones Big Hits, High Tide, Green Grass - I still adore that album!

Did you see the doco, Amy? Saw it 2 weeks ago. Such an amazing talent, such a sad case

Beautiful song johncat

A couple more oldies but goodies for this lovely sunny day...


So excited to be going to see the Violent Femmes play at the Corner hotel in March.

No, didn't see it Sttew. I'm very unfamiliar with Amy Winehouse, only know she was a fabulous singer, was with Russell Brand + died. allrighty introduced Winehouse to me very recently + am getting to know her music.

No idea if it has been posted:

 

[The rabbi]

First thing I bought 31 yrs ago when I got my first decent pay, straight after our wedding, from Trevor Lees in Kew, (and we had nothing, zilch) was a good stereo system, PROTON/REGA. My annoyed wife thought I had very poor priorities, but I reassured her that if I could not play decent music on a decent system, we indeed had nothing.
I still use it to this day.
Any time Rabbi you want to play your vinyls if you're heading up to the Dandenongs...

31 years, only the speakers need rewiring, but a great system.

I had a Technics SL-1200 Mk11 and I was thinking of upgrading to a Linn Sondek.
I remember the Rega Planar turn tables quite well. Steve Bennett used to sell them in Geelong years ago. Good value for money too.
I just have a CD player that is just about shot. I have an old Accuphase E-303 amp that drives a pair of Yamaha NS1000 speakers that I have had for around thirty years.
I would love to upgrade everything but I need to win Tatts just to buy a house to put it into.

Great writer, great singer, great interpretation. Glad you like. Back to black is a ripper.

Yes this is a few years earlier when she ate food rather than crack.

Russell Brand. Eeeyuk. An uber uber tosser.

 

[Big Tom 2013]

My girlfriend did her best Aretha impersonation and sang this one on a road trip we took today, nice and summery;

 

[Art Vandelay_]

What would be the average age of MMM listeners?
I know half those songs- you can bet which ones I don't know.

Not sure what the target demographic is to be honest, I mostly listen to MMM during footy season for the footy commentary.

 

[darren forssman]

Didn't listen to them but in memory:



Vale Scott Weiland.

 

[vinum coupe]

Tom? Where the hell has Tom been?

 

[karencatsfan]

Didn't listen to them but in memory:



Vale Scott Weiland.

One of my brother's favourite bands.
What happened to him-he can't have been very old?

Tom? Where the hell has Tom been?

Which Tom are you talking about VC-Big Tom?
He's been posting awesome music in here.

So come on and post a song too VC-we're doing a 'summer' theme atm, and you like the heat from memory.

This thread is huge... so anything I post will likely have been round before

Doesn't matter Willo-I've posted the same song at least 3 times in here before!!
Show us what music you like.

Welcome to my contribution

Mostly I love the film clip for this



Fun fact ... some of the weddings were staged, but there are a few that they genuinely did this too.. which would have been unreal
