Cool. I only listened to a lot more PINK than YES, but live STEVE HOWE was... stunning. I've seen a lot of shows, and that was one of the good ones! All that Prog Rock commentary made me choose this tonight : PINK FLOYD Meddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggested Steve Hillage as someone who, like Greg Lake, offered his instrument to the genre in more than one notable prog group - rather than Hillage as a so-subjective superior player.

We all looked at each other and said: We should stick to playing rock, since we will never get close to what this kid is already doing!

LuckyDan Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 I heard this one for the first time just a couple of hours ago on a radio program called She-roes, which is dedicated, the lady said, to "celebrating and amplifying" female musicians. This is Ruth Brown from 1952, (I know the video title says 1953 but it's a 1952 recording so Truman was still president) when R&B still had some B in it. And on vinyl, with all the pop and hiss you could want. Ruth Brown was quite a success in the 50s, and is sometimes called The Queen of R&B. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Brown's hip had a welt on it after the way she was workin' that tamborine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Gorman Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I was waxing nostalgic for the Summer of 1981 . . . so I listened to the JOEY SCARBURY hit "Believe It or Not (Theme from 'The Greatest American Hero')". It reached it's #2 peak on the Billboard 100 Chart in mid-August of '81. Sure it's cheesy, but it's tuneful. Then I decided to listen to THE MOTELS and their hit "Only The Lonely" and MAXINE NIGHTINGALE's hit from '79 "Lead Me On" and then QUARTERFLASH with "Harden My Heart" and, finally, COOL NIGHT by Paul Davis. ("I . . . sometimes wonder why . . . all the flowers had to die . . . ). It's handy to have YouTube songs playing on another screen while I type on this one! I miss the 1980s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Gorman Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 You may recall the band QUARTERFLASH was first 'named' SEAFOOD MAMA and their original recording of "Harden My Heart" was a little bit different than the later 'hit' arrangement. Both versions are on YouTube -- ergo, if you like the song then you can compare each version. The QUARTERFLASH album containing "Harden My Heart" and "Find Another Fool" was dedicated "to all the Seafood lovers in the Northwest". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
