Strange you say that Bizzare love triangle i'd never heard until recently (it's my fave now!), in the UK the only ones they ever played were Blue Monday and True Faith (they were the big two, Blue Monday very much so.) True Faith was the first one i heard.

Enjoy the Silence is my fave, it was formerly Everything Counts... but the former has just eclipsed it over the last few months. Never Let Me Down was another i was fond of. (Oh heck i liked most of em... except for anything done after about 1991 then they went down hill).

I still like Visage; Fade to Grey!

Now the Pet Shop Boys i like, but i was never a big fan. The fave must be Go West, with Always on My Mind (one of the very few cover versions that was better than the original!), West End Girls and New York City Boy close by.

As for Duran Duran i like Planet Earth, but Save A Prayer is my fave!

Ahhh ... the ‘70s !

Jethro Tull, Yes, Guess Who, Queen, Grand Funk, Genesis, Foreigner, Supertramp, Deep Purple, Crosby Stills & Nash, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bad Company – can any other decade match this lineup ?


Question: Who’s the second best band of the ‘70s ?

Answer: I don’t know, but whoever it was, they were sure a long, long ways behind Led Zeppelin.

 

My 1st grand child turned 1 in July. (2nd just born on AUgust) I am now into songs like

Itsy Bitsy spider
The wheels on the bus go round and round
etc. etc. etc.


Boy I've made a 360 degree turn from the 60's music.

 

I like Queen and like Deep Purple when Gillan was the lead singer.

I must admit though as far as the 70s music goes i like funk.

 

I use to like the Ramones, "I want to be sedated ", but I think all the good ones are dead now. The sex pistols had some nice music to hum to and Barry Manilow was the icing on the cake. Her name was Lola........Dangerous but sweet.

 

Kind of a shame. I loved the Ramones in the late 1970s and 1980s. They're all dropping, and it seems to keep being cancer.

Anyway, my classic Ramones moment was "meeting" the late Joey Ramone (sort of, we never spoke and barely made eye contact). It was around 1996, I think. My wife worked at a college bookstore operated by the business that also ran the football stadium at our alma mater, San Jose State (and this business coordinated events there). She volunteered to work the Lollapalooza show there on a Saturday and recruited me to do the same (we were mostly running cash from concession stands to a central secured location). It wasn't much, but I had nothing to do that day and it was $15 an hour we wouldn't have had otherwise.

At one point between acts, a few minutes after the Ramones finished playing, we found ourselves crossing an area under the stadium where access was restricted and some roadies, event staff and such were assembled. Sue taps me on the shoulder at one point, looks toward a very tall man and whispers in my ear, "he looks like Joey Ramone, doesn't he?"

I looked up for about a second and whispered back at her. "That's because it *is* Joey Ramone."

Gabba gabba hey!

 

a' cappella, four-part Barbershop harmony ..... probably because I sang in a 172-man Barbershop Chorus for several years in the 80s and more recently in a Babershop Quartet (for over 7 years). More fun than you could ever imagine and the tremendous sounds four male voices (balanced and tuned) can produce,... wow!

With a sprinkling of Jazz guitar in the evening.

 

Ahhh the seventies, Home sweet home,,, Jethro,Nugent,Frank Zappa,Edgar Winter,James Gang,,, I had no Idea that I had found so many folks from the same era as myself, I feel more comfortable with you all already.

Those were the days and still are !!!

 

I had albums from Edgar Winter and James Gang, too !

Ziggy, when I was in high school a guy I knew from around the way was always talking about the Ramones and was always hanging with Joey and no one took Joey seriously. You've seen the guy so you would know why plus he never talk in a crowd so who knew what about the guy. Anyway, to cut to the chase Tom was going around asking if anyone wanted to go with him to the airport to pick up the Ramones. He was talking about a month that they were in England or something shooting a movie. We didn't think they were that good so no one took it as real. Little did we know that Phil Spector took over and re-created that Ramone sound and the movie was Rock-n-Roll High School. The most interesting thing about it all was after the Ramones made it big, Joey still walked around as if nothing happened and for the most part he had the respect of Brooklyn and Staten Island but he also always had his personel space there. I heard in later years he hung downtown in the lower east side and the village but I never saw him around so maybe the talk meant that hole in the wall club, that had homeless people living outside of it, CBG something or another. I see where you from Texas. Always wanted to experience your great state but the only moment of memory that I have is being sniffed down by a DEA dog after I was stopped in the corridors of the Houston Airport enroute from transferring from an in bound plane from Costa Rica and going to New York 20 years ago. Like your dogs but never had a dream.
