Sepiatone I have only one ALICE IN CHAINS album (Facelift) though I like some other Grunge too (PEARL JAM, NIRVANA particularly). You like some good Rock! That album "the dog album" is the one of theirs I'd want. All of your musical choices are good. I like all types of music. Good... and Bad. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

That brought to mind that line in the movie THE BLUES BROTHERS when they "highjacked" that gig at that country bar and asked the lady running the place, "What kid of music do you like here?" And her answer, "Oh, we like BOTH kinds. Country AND Western!" 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yea, I'm aware of the NY Dolls, especially since Fee looked at them as East Coast influences. Link to post Share on other sites

She remained in the public eye, on television, and at many commemorative events. And her songs were featured on soundtracks of many movies and television shows. "We'll Meet Again" is used at the close of DR. STRANGELOVE. I have a VERA LYNN collection which I think I'll play now. Link to post Share on other sites

Allhallowsday Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Anybody else like that '70s Soul? I even bought 45s back in the day and they often were the Soul hits. THE STYLISTICS are one of the best for that type of music : The Best Of THE STYLISTICS Of course, there were lots of groups... 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Sepiatone Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Yep. Stuck with only AM radio in my car for most of the '70's, heard a lot of that stuff on my way to work every morning. Liked THESE guys too! Thought they and the Stylistics were great! Many of my also long haired "hippie" buds thought I was crazy. Sepiatone 2 Link to post Share on other sites

One time I was in Paris a few years back oh, they had just hit town and everybody was talking about their weekend concert. All of these old American groups, do very well in Europe for good. Some stay there and never come back to the States. Link to post Share on other sites

Never got around to hearing the rest. The '90's did have a wide variety to it...... like and..... Or----- Sure. No clear '90's "sound" or formula! LOVE that.

Sepiatone Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Y'know, after ten years and 300+ weddings(as a photographer) we photogs are usually treated to similar fare by I'd say 99.9% of wedding DJ's. like... KENNY G's "Songbird" to kick off the dinner hour... "Daddy's Little Girl" or "Sunrise, Sunset" for the Father-Daughter dance. And for the garter toss..... David Rose's "The Stripper" for when the groom removes the garter and when the guy who caught it puts it on the bouquet catcher's leg. Without fail. But KUDOS to the DJ at one of my nephew's wedding(for which I also did the photography) for changing it up by playing THIS instead! But of course, he did go back to the usual suspects for the rest of the night. Like "Love Shack", "Strokin'", "Friends In Low Places", etc. And once, at another wedding, A DJ chanced( claiming it was a request) played.... Yeah, well.......

Allhallowsday Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 I love THE BEACH BOYS and my first album of theirs was a used copy of Best of The Beach Boys Vol. 2... then I went through a phase of buying many of their albums in the 1980s that were still in print (and BUTCHERED). This one, one of my top 10 favorite albums, was never butchered like so many of their others : 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Allhallowsday Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 The album All Summer Long I no longer own, but the title track is one of my very favorites of THE BEACH BOYS : 1 Link to post Share on other sites
