misswonderly3 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 The great, 90% Canadian band known as The Band, gave a New Year's Eve concert on December 31st, 1971. Here's an example of why these guys are still revered today. Baby, don't ya do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenderblue19 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Happy and Healthy & Prosperous New Year Miss W to you and your family. Still have my The Band albums. Saw them at the Filmore East in my younger days. Well, truth be told spent too much time at the Filmore in my younger, much wilder days. Probably quite a few posters on these bds could tell the same stories of those days of midnight Dead,etc concerts LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownGoesFrazier Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 There's no such thing as spending "too much" time at the Fillmore East. Any time spent there was not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavenderblue19 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 LOL- Yes for the music, but since judging from you not being a native NY'er you didn't spend a lot of time there, I have a feeling you didn't get the true meaning of my post.

DownGoesFrazier Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I am jealous. By the time I got to NYC, the Fillmore East was closed. I do know, though, exactly where it was.......That was where the Doors first made their mark on the East Coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laffite Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 The end credit music of Inglorious Basterds intrigues me, ?Rabbia E Tarentella.? The eerie march-like fate theme that oddly resembles Beethoven?s Fifth, _not so much_ the better known opening theme, but rather the four-note theme that begins the _third movement_ of that symphony. The thing is, I have heard ?Tarentella? before, but can?t remember where. I don?t think this is original music to Tarantino?s movie. Does anyone have an idea elsewhere this music was used? It is haunting and even a bit disturbing. (Reminds me a little of some of the music in Game of Thrones) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBa5NWOuO7k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeniaH Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I'm rocking out to "Abacab" right now on my lunch hour. What a great beat! Love their combination of the rock guitar and the synthesizer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misswonderly3 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Thanks for that, Char. I remember a wedding I attended once, where this song was played for the newly-weds' first dance. I found out later that the bride was annoyed about it; apparently she'd told the dj to play something else, and there'd been a mistake. But all I could think was, pretty fortuitous mistake. Well, since we're in kind of a soft and mellow mode (I was going to say "mushy", but decided it had an unappealing sound...), I thought I'd post a tune I rarely hear these days, but was all over the radio at some point when I was a kid. I remember the first time I heard it, I was sitting with my mum in some doctor's waiting room or something - it's a very vague memory, but I know I really noticed this piece when it came on the radio there. Which is funny, because it is exactly the kind of music associated with doctors' waiting rooms. Anyway, here it is, in all its cheesy glory (all the videos for it on youtube were equally cheesy.) "Love is Blue" : (What reminded me of "Love is Blue" was, it was used on a "Mad Men" episode I watched recently.) Although it wasn't initially intended this way, I suppose I could call this a shout-out to my two blue pals on this forum, lavender and dark. Blue.

DownGoesFrazier Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 In my comparison of Berry and Presley, i should also say that Presley did both rockers and ballads. I don't know of any Berry ballad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misswonderly3 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Good point, fi. But shirley old Chuck had a ballad or two up his sleeve- I'm going to research it. Will get back to you.

laffite Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 A couple weeks I was asking about some music used as end credits to Inglorious Basterds, the film of *Tarantino*, music by *Ennio Morricone*, and that I was certain having heard it before in another movie and could anyone tell me which one. I discovered that this music was used in the *Taviani Bros* film, Allonsanfan, music also (of course) by Morricone, much more extensively than in the more recent Tarentino film. I find it unusual that the same music would be used in two films, so it seems to me, anyway. BTW, I wish Allonsanfan would be put on DVD, it's certainly a good enough film. Here is the music again, it is a captivating little piece, typical Morricone excellence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misswonderly3 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Char, "On and On" is one of those songs I knew but didn't know I knew it til I heard it. If you know what I mean. I've actually always liked the song, but never knew what it was called, never paid much attention to it unless it came on the radio, when I would listen to it and smile. Very catchy. I could go on and on... Here's an old song, done by many. I think the most famous version is the Jaynetts, but I like this Ike and Tina Turner one. Poor Sally, doncha go downtown. And here's another version, this one by the great folk/rock/jazz group Pentangle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeniaH Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I stumbled across a previously-unheard (by me) tune by The Byrds, "Here Without You". Gorgeous harmonies as usual. Somehow for me this song is so touching - it makes me cry! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykip-ue2BuU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
