John great posting of the wild child . She looks very different now but still got the devil in her . I'm a great admirer.

The first three records I bought if my memory serves me

But I did have cindy oh cindy by Eddie fisher before that from my cousin.

Elvis was great Bobbo - Recently saw the new Elvis film, thought it was great, though didn't have high expectations after some negative reviews.
My first 3 records bought would be something like- A Scottish Soldier- Andy Stewart, Rock Island Line- Lonnie Donnegan, and Needles and Pins - The Searchers.

But after listening to the great Iris Dement, then finding footage of Ralph Mctell at Glastonbury this year, I was thinking of songs about towns.

So -

Iris DeMent -

Ralph Mctell

The Specials -

Great sound ray , iris dement , I never heard of her but it's making me feel 18 again . Gonna look for more of her now.

And ray I know you're not local and I don't want to make you envious but I'm heading for the streets of London on Monday with my granddaughter and family to brick lane for salt beef baigels with plenty of colmans on .

Lay Down Your Arms. Number one back in 1956

My humble recommendations, one tune featuring an incredible female voice and followed by an equally impressive male voice.

1. Flora Purim, who released this song 'This is Me' earlier this year. Flora is only aged 80 years and produced by her husband Airto Moreira who is aged 82. I think their music demonstrates that age is only a number. Aparrently her voice ranges over 6 octaves even now!!!

2. And in contrast the voice of Jose James singing Truth, written and produce by Goldie. Goldie is normally not someone I would listen to but this song and arrangement is beautiful:
