Nostalgic Music Thread

Lots of good old songs been posted

I can't link them (cause I'm new) but if anyone wants to look it up, Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show Live versions of "Freaker's Ball" and "Cover of the Roling Stone" on youtube are incredibly awesome. It's from an old German T.v. show. BTW any of you see them live?

:high:

Joni Mitchell, Pat Metheny, and Jaco Pastorius doing "Coyote" - true nostalgia for me:

Here are a couple of songs that I like. I can't listen to one without thinking of the other.

Here's another from the late 70's that still resonates big time with me - got to be one of the best instrumentals I've ever heard:

Sometime in the 32nd century, a digital archeologist is going to be writing his PhD thesis* about 21st century Internet football message board thread topics, and he's going to run across this thread and evaluate all the posts.

And he (or she or it) will think to himself (herself/itself), "That Tiproast character was certainly full of shit** about almost everything, but he (or she or it) did post one kick-ass song in this thread."

* Please understand that I'm using our own equivalents for concepts that will have advanced way beyond what we currently think about in terms of scholarship and research in these primitive times.

** Hopefully an even more derogatory term will have been developed by then.

HaHa Tip - good comment- and that is a great tune from a superb album.

Here's some great 70's road music from the Marshall Tucker Band with Charlie Daniels on fiddle with them:

From the Bob Welch and Danny Kirwan edition of Fleetwood Mac:

Tip - Good Fleetwood Mac tune.

Another from them, featuring Danny Kirwan:

Nice - one of several really good tracks from that album.

The Future Games and Bare Trees albums represent a direction that band took that I really liked. Unfortunately, they couldn't sustain it after Kirwan imploded (although there is some nice stuff on the Mystery To Me album).

When the band lost Kirwan, and then later Welch, and added Buckingham and Nicks, they became more pop-oriented. They still put out some really good stuff, but it didn't sound anything like what they were able to conjure up with Welch & Kirwan leading the band.

Yea, Tip, you bet - although I loved the Stevie Nicks era of Fleetwood Mac also, I was always very partial to the early days of that group. "Station Man" and "Hypnotized" are a couple other amazing tracks from them back in the day.

Here's another great performer that makes me yearn for the 70's:

This made a resurgence in the mid-70's :)
