Friday evening music

[Holders]

Some good stuff here, Bobbo. I suspect that most of today's offerings won't be remembered 40+ years later like many of these.

Here's "The Girl from the Hiring Fair" by Ralph McTell. He's well-know for another song that's been played to destruction but this is far better in my view. Fairport also do it but you can't beat the original:

[Dodgin]

Great choice Holders, lovely song a folkies favourite.

[Dodgin]

My Favourite country singer from his best album Down and Dirty. 

[bobbo]

Dodgin,holders , l like yer choices keep it going gang.

A bit of advice from Richard Thompson for all those going shopping today -

Bob Dylan has an album of new material released this week, his first for about  8 years.

This song is from the album that first turned me on to Dylan The Times They Are A'Changing, which still seems very  relevant- a Tulse hill comp  schoolmate said 'you've got to here this bloke', and we sat on the floor in of one of the listening booths in  WH Smiths , Streatham High Road, and i was completely amazed by what i heard, going into  my local  record shop   days later and asking for the record by Bob Dielon.

Bob and Richard together -love this cover of a Rye Cooder song, find it moving, even if Dylan does look a bit under the weather -

[WhiteJC]

Carpenters - rainy days and Mondays

[RaySmith]

Beautiful.

I raise a metaphorical glass to Karen Carpenter - this song seems very poignant in the light of what happened to her. She was so talented, and her premature  loss, so sad.

[WhiteJC]

Evanescence - Cruel summer

Robben Ford & Larry Carlton - talk to your daughter

Tom Petty - the Last DJ

[Dodgin]

There are great country guitar pickers and then there is Albert Lee. The Yanks love him. Country Boy.

[RaySmith]

We've all been here haven't we, especially after Fulham have been hammered, or even if they won!

Unreleased Neil Young album from the 70's released today, Homegrown - this is on it

[RaySmith]

Sidanddoris - Brillaint! Freddie King is a blues great. I saw him at the Garden Party, Crystal Palace Bowl in the 70's, he and Eric Clapton were on stage together.

Glad you liked it Bobbo. It was  year ago now that i managed to see Neil Young in Ireland, with Bob Dylan - he was absolutely brilliant.

Great stuff bobbo - I think you'll appreciate this.

Another great West coast singer/songwriter-
