Case o beer for that one too. Regrettably the other gossamer-thin link back to my music-ligging heyday of the 70's let me down last thursday, Sonja Christina's Curved air's gig in Birmingham was cancelled so lat minute I was on the way to it before I found out....Originally Posted by roger_ramjet

Good call re Eric although I prefer the Pogues cover - so, call me a heathen

Certainly so, just been listening to the 'Paint It Blue' Rolling Stones covered by old blues fellahs album, loving the funked up version of midnight rambler, Under my thumb and wild horses.
Unlike my chosen football team, music never lets me down

In the car today I've got White Blues by Chet Baker in the CD player.
Throughout the day, whatever comes on the local radio Spire FM.
Later I'll be teaching Hey Joe on guitar by Jimi Hendrix, Rhinestone Cowboy on banjo by Glen Campbell, possibly Foggy Mountain Breakdown on banjo by Earl Scrubs, and some general blues guitar improv.

June Tabor's version ain't bad also.

Stick to Chet Baker if you can.

Listening to a lot of Rufus Wainwright at the moment in readiness for seeing him in about ten days time.
Possibly the first time I’ll have seen the offspring of a performer I saw back in the ‘70’s
Mrs. Ramanag’s choice really but it’s interesting.
What a wonderful job you have Adi...sounds blissful...I’m unashamedly jealous.

Have you noticed how peace has broken out on the forum with a music thread?

Absolutely love all genres of music. However, from someone who is tone deaf, has the voice of a ruptured cockerel and can't play one note on the spoons it's a shame Adi is not a Leeds fan then I could hate the git for having, like rA says, such a 'blissful' job!! Lol.
