Mousetrap: One of my girlfriends is hearing impaired, She plays Rap music because she can feel the beat.

LOL, funny thing was she could not make out the words, and got in trouble at work for playing some of the .. uh... foul-mouthed ones. She had no idea and was really embarrassed when she found out.

I just wanted to mention, that the page takes a lot longer to load when there has been a lot of videos posted. Please keep this in mind when you are embedding videos.

It might be a good idea to embed one, and just post the links to others. And don't forget to tell us about them, or what you like about them!

Eriisa: I prefer the links too, think the quality is much better on the videos. When a lot of videos are imbedded, the board looks rather cluttered.

Andersp, thanks for that link....I enjoyed that!!

Eriisa: Lmbo!
I agree, too many videos posted kill the converstation on this board. I would much rather read about something that meant something to people rather than just ccp and videos.
For instance rather than all that mud which I would rather not look at how about a little nostaligia. This was the first record my nanna ever bought me. Enjoy! I know I will! It is Bonny M with Rivers of Babylon.

That was my very first record ever on 45. That was 1971. On the flip side was Brown Girl in the Ring lalalala lol!
Great stuff and great memories!

Andersp: Far out man!

Mousetrap: oh that's awesome! I never heard her before.

My brother was 12 years older than me, so when he went to Military Academy, I inherited all his 45's. This is the one I played the most.

Eriisa: And I take it you did,nt cry? Lmbo!

Mousetrap: LOL, I still have those 45's packed away somewhere!!!

Eriisa: I still have mine but I transfered them all onto one cd via mp3. Opps I meant I transfered all my single cds onto mp3 and got rid of them but kept all my 45s.

Jim Dandy: Gotta admit, that is outside the scope of what I listen to! Some interesting guitar work, but I dunno about the 2 minutes of repeating the same line over and over.

Thanks for posting it. I did learn something new about where grunge came from.

That was interesting, JD. Was he barefoot? I have a friend, she turns 51 Sunday, who until last year played lead guitar in an all-mom grunge band. I learned to accept it after following her around some. It is a totally different style from what I usually listen to too, Riissy. I have a CD of theirs, I should get one for you. The songs are great, one of them being, "Pick Up Your Socks." Typical mom issues in a totally different package.

Andre Faria: I think I would rather hear about the Power of Love than the Power of Lard lmbo!

TexasToest: I'm not sure,the link was actually sent to me by a business associate.They really seem to be really influenced by Iggy Pop during his Stooges period.

A personal favorite

Oh, I do love Iggy Pop.

Jim Dandy: I never thought I would enjoy punk but I enjoyed that! I must be getting younger!

Mousetrap:  I thought Clash was a household word.  Hahahaha!  I really like them.  They work REALLY hard for every note they put out.

Mousetrap: I still kick myself for not bidding on an a guitar that was autographed by all the original band members.It was available at an auction on a cruise I was on,and that was prior to Joe Strummers passing

TexasToest: Well maybe I clashed with them at one time
I remember walking through Manchester years ago and seeing all these kids dressed as punks in Market Street. That was the fist time I ever seen anyone with muliticoloured hair and chains and dressed in leathers. There was a crowd of them alll sat down quitely just enjoying passing the time of day.

Jim Dandy: Well if you see anything like that again grab it quick!

Jim Dandy:  Yeah, what she said.  I could have traded you my Spiro.

TexasToest: I hear you don't have to pay tax on Spiro memorabilia

Who told you THAT?  Every year about this time, someone from the IRS comes and collects 5 dollars from me for my annual watch tax.

TexasToest: You knew this was coming

My new favorite band is Antigone Rising. I'd been familiar with them since about 2000, but I saw them play last weekend and I never realized just how awesome they are.

Check out their MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/antigonerising (with links to separate pages of the band members with more music samples) and their cute YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/antigonerising1.

Jim Dandy:  Well, I didn't know if it would be forthcoming, but I should have known you wouldn't leave me out on the cold.  Hahaha!  AND, I have a story about that song......

Back in the dark ages, my brother played lead in a band.  They were practicing in our living room one afternoon, and a guy who worked for our dad came over for some reason.  The guys were practicing that song, Taxman. 

Well, this guy was rather obese, and he had evidently never heard the song before.  He thought they were singing Fatman, and got all puffed up about it.  I honestly don't know if he ever got straight with that.  When he left suddenly the way he did, it never occurred to us until my mom told us. 

Nivabef:  Thanks for the link to Antigone Rising.  I'm maybe behind the times, but I'd never heard them before. 

TexasToest: really? I can see it being mistaken for "saxman" and running the risk of offending a sax player.I don't see how they could hear fat,unless of course the singer had a lisp

Jim Dandy:  You have to admit the accoustics aren't the best in the living room of a suburban tract home.  You couldn't hear anything clearly but the instruments.  Plus, there is something to be said about the sensitivity of the person who is insecure about his weight anyway, and his lack of familiarity with the "music of the day".  

TexasToest: Most likely he could not understand the words. When I first started listing to the group Newsboys in the 90's, it was months before I could understand the words! LOL

I know this isnt a religion board of any sort - but this is not a religious post in nature - its about music - this is a song that has meant a great deal to me - and i thought just maybe others could gain something from the message in the music - sometimes a change in perspective is all that we need in order to deal with pain or suffering....and this music in particular seems to help me....

redfrog: One of my favorite songs.....very meaningful. Casting Crowns is my favorite group.

TexasToest: I agree,many a song I have been on another planet entirely when it comes to what I hear and what's actually written.I can understand his sensitivity,but I hope they all shared a good laugh after the misunderstanding was clarified

In the meantime,let there be rock!,I'm the kid wearing the horns

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lAvBzqo6KU

Eriisa:  Yeah, that's kinda what I was saying, except when you have studio equipment, everything is clearer.  When you have a 4 piece band in the living room, you can hear lots of stuff, but not a lot of detail.  I can assure you this man had never heard any music from the Beatles' Revolver at that point in time, if ever.  This was back in 1966, and it had just been released that summer (3 days before my birthday.....is that why I've made my career in taxation? - it's the BEATLES' fault, [exp] them).

TexasToest: You made a career in Taxation?

TexasToest: You made a career in Taxation?

There is an echo in here here here!

redfrog:  That's music.  Thanks for reminding us.

Jim Dandy:  I kept looking for your horns, but I was distracted.  All I can say is....great legs!

Mousetrap:  Yes, that's what I've done most of my career, advise, account for, and prepare federal income taxes for individuals, corporations, trusts, non-profits.....you name it.

As many of you know,the visual effect in the theatre is exceptional

So tell me, JD, you still go see the moving pictures packing your rain gear?  I love Rocky Horror Picture Show.  Now, you have me thinking about renting it.  Or, maybe even buying it.  Not long ago, I saw an interview with Meatloaf.  He's a changed man, he even got serious about life.  I didn't know that he was a serious, and very talented, actor, and that was his passion.  How about a little Hot Patootie?

rock and rollers ...you're all the same...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0VRbVp_5p8

Awwww awesome, you love it.  Rock 'n Roll is where the creativity is.  Jerry Lee, I had to two-step up and down the hall on that one.  He's definitely my contemporary.  He used to play on Saturday nights in the country outside the town where I was born.

TexasToest:
I do, I agree ..it was a line in the song...
