·In 1992 I became aware of a for me completely unknown band, whose LP “Just a visitor” was named record of the year in a music magazine.
The "Fellow Travelers" combined folk, country, reggae and dub elements, creating a very unique sound.
Deceleration as a musical principle - in the Krefeld culture factory I experienced 92, freshly in love with a new girl friend at my side, the most relaxed concert of my life.
"A few good times": What really matters in life - is it job, career and financial status or the small, beautiful, unforgettable moments that you ideally share with your loved ones? Take your choice!

·finally some of that beyond the fifty boys with the always sad eyes and the big portion of soul in the voice. Ron Sexsmith enjoys the esteem of many musicians, from Elvis Costello and Coldplay to Radiohead and Paul McCatney - despite countless great songs he has not gone beyond an insider tip status. Here is a song about a sad, because unfulfilled love:

That is bizarre … Last few days I have been watching archived footage from an old UK show called The Tube... Which did once feature The Tubes playing White Punks on Dope ......the audience were in shock :0)
48:05... straight after Shalamar (another classic)…. and RIP Paula Yates (never boring)

·I think he would have played in the much better band with the Dexys, but a matter of taste.
By the way, I just remembered that not only the drummer of Duran Duran, but also that of Queen was called Roger Taylor.
And I didn't know the "Band of Joy" you mentioned, but I do have an album from the "Band of Holy Joy"
Yes - I think those bands were (and many more from that time) responsible for too much Rogering back in the day. Jumping back ref Germany + Queen (who like Bowie were big Berlin fans) - it put me in mind of a Hamburg Duckstein festival a few years back... A Freddy Mercury ventriloquist / tribute act in broken English - who finished by belting out we are the Champions before crowd surfing into myself and my comrades shouting I want to come down on those guys... what happens at the Duckstein stays at the Duckstein :0)

·When I was young in middle school in the early 1970s, my older brother (4 years older) was a guitar player in a "garage band" with other high school classmates.
He would buy LP albums of various lead guitar players and let me listen to his records.
One of these was the group Ten Years After with Alvin Lee as the lead guitar player.
I always liked that style of music, a mixture of blues and rock-and-roll.
In 2007, Alvin Lee put out an album called Saguitar with this song on it "Motel Blues".
For someone like him who can really play fast guitar riffs, it is a very tasteful bit of more slowly played blues guitar.
Take a listen if you haven't heard it.

·One of my favorite genres of music is the British Invasion time period of rock-and-roll.
One of the groups you don't hear too much about is the Spencer Davis Group.
In the mid-1960s, the members were Spencer Davis, Steve Winwood, Muff Winwood, and Pete York.
The singing of Steve Winwood is impressive at a young age.
Steve Winwood was born on May 12, 1948, so he would have been 18 years old in 1966.
Here is their song "Keep On Running" performed live on TV in 1966.

·So about a month ago the wife buys whatever this crap is and sticks it in the bathroom...
So now every single morning I get this song stuck in my head.
Not a bad thing...but still. Every. Single. Morning. lol.
Almost like when I had my old iPod with a bad battery hooked up to my car. It would power on when the car was on but it would die every time the car turned off. So every single time I started my car it would start playing the very first song.
And that would be a song from the band A-Ha. Imagine hearing the beginning of this song every time you start your car...for years!!!!!
