Great listening ray. Saw it a couple of days back just had time to play it. Keep em coming.

I thrive on music I like. Been to a good few concerts over years, and no matter who I've been to watch come away with real feel good feeling. I've flown out to US about 7 times to see James Taylor.

Music is very important to me too bobbo. I'm impressed by  you going to the States  all those times to see James Taylor - I'm a big fan of West Coast singer/songwriters of that era too - Jackson Browne and Joni Mitchell being particular favourites, and here are two of the   best-

I thought of Farlowe as just a cover artist - buddying up with the Stones etc. Nothing more than that?


definately not milo.
When i used watch him way back he had his own band behind him " the thunderbirds " although I bow down to the fact he was nowhere near the dizzy heights of the stones.

I know it's not Friday night but because I'm a oldie now most of my contributions are from way back and this Conway twisty one is no exception

That sounds great bobbo - I'm an old'un myself, but don't really remember  Conway Twitty, never  realised how good he was.

This is one of the first records to really get my feet tapping, really made an impression when i first heard it blasting out of the radio-

Rock Island Line by the great Lonnie Donnegan -

Where would music be without the great Lonnie D, Mark Knopfler pays tribute to Lonnie for his love of music and influence in the early years.
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true?

Brilliant versions of classic songs, JC, with a  great sentiment  behind them .
Here's Bob Dylan and Robbie Robertson and The Band doing All Along the Watchtower.



Loved that Skeeter Davis song, too, bobbo, when i was young. Here's another classic from that era, It's My Party. Lesley Gore
