What kind of music you hear while you trade?

A blast from the past (why not ), as the radio disc jockeys used to say The Wayward Wind - Gogi Grant top seller 1956 [/quthe southeast. ote]


And a blast from the past it was! My dad and I used to listen to this together when I was a kid. It seems like whenever Dad was around, music was too. He taught me a lot of the old cowboy songs, and we'd be singing anytime we were together doing something. He was born in 1907 and grew up in Missouri, Tennessee and Texas. His favorite music was the old cowboy songs and hill music from that time. In the 60's he liked a lot of the folk music and some of the earlier rock and roll. I'm glad you posted that song, it brings back a lot of good memories.

Great recollections & story WHL, cheers
Your dad might likely have remembered this'un then too

I remember as a real youngster marching around our backyard to this anthem music and loving it hahaa
(I went on to learn drumming later also, maybe the rat-a-tat drumming from this song was the catalyst for me later as a teen )

All the best pal

Mitch Miller - Yellow Rose Of Texas

I like listening to this progressive house mix while trading:

Marc and the boys at the top of their game
1971


Get It On - T.Rex

Tommy B
1976

Of note (imho) on his last album Private Eyes

Reggie McBride, bass, driving the beat (played & or toured with Stevie Wonder, Van Morrison, Ry Cooder, Keb Mo, John Lee Hooker & BB King)
Carmine Appiche, snap drums, ex Vanilla Fudge (played with Jeff Beck, Rod Stewart, Rick Derringer plus a short spell with Ozzy Osbourne)
and
Tommy Bolin, lead guitar & vocals, ex James Gang, Deep Purple then his last gig with his own band before an early death.

“We are lost sailors
Out of luck and favours
Missing in the raging ocean
Laughing midnight wine
We are the lovers of time
Crying when we feel like it”

Someday Will Bring Our Love Home - Tommy Bolin

Have you seen this one my friend?the opening scene & soundtrack was from TREX Get it onas the film was set on early 70s

Cheers Brix,
Mate I love a good movie soundtrack yes hahaa

Really bizarre times, the 60s & 70s and I loved it for the musos AND the session musos
(and not the sometimes digitised computer backings we now get a little of)

But what the heck was Marc Bolan thinking tho with the lyrics
(it would be straight off to H.R. for him, these days, I reckon )

"You're dirty and sweet, oh yeah
Well, you're slim and you're weak
You've got the teeth of the hydra upon you
You're dirty sweet and you're my girl"

Another classic (from the early Stones Brian Jones era)
1966

H.R. would probably be up & investigating this'un also hahaaa


Under My Thumb - Rolling Stones
