  1. We just learned "Fun Fun Fun" for a regular audience member. We play once a week on a deck at a marina on a lagoon across from a state park. The location brings out a lot of beach, tropical, and other "summer songs" from the snowbirds who are vacationing down here. And they are fun to play. The song is Fun Fun Fun but with the two of us, we don't have all the harmonies so I put some of the parts on the synthesizer and included it in my backing track (I make my own backing tracks for my duo) "Fun Fun Fun" - The Beach Boys
  2. Nothing wrong with a repeat. "Peppermint Twist" - Joey Dee and the Starliters. (IMO no need for a video) Many years ago I played at The Peppermint Lounge in Miami, FL. It was a big deal at the time. I wasn't legal at the time, but the band leader was and I guess that's all that counted. They wouldn't serve me drinks though.
  3. "The Warmth Of The Sun" - The Beach Boys A lot of their lyrics are corny by today's standards, but their harmony singing was top-notch by any standard.
  4. Fresh Garbage - Spirit
  5. Happy Birthday 2 U !!!! And I wish you 67 more. Notes
  6. We are a perverted society when natural body functions are something to be ashamed of. Face it, s*** happens. Create a need, release a product to satisfy that need, and you corporate stocks shall rise. Insights and incites by Notes
  7. While I'm on the subject of great Brazilian female singing pianists, here is Valeu - Tania Maria
  8. Gin Mill Blues - Joe Sullivan
  9. Call Me - Eliane Elias (great pianist/singer)
  10. Well, since we're talking the elements, how about Helium - Plain White T's
  11. Keep Your Hands Off Her - Big Bill Broonzy 'Cause sometimes I have to go back to my R&B roots
  12. "Only Women Bleed" - Alice Cooper
  13. The Caves Of Altamira - Steely Dan
  14. (comment about the above video) ... Hypnotized - Fleetwood Mac (Bob Welch)
  15. Message In A Bottle - Police
  16. becan and cheese sandwich (grilled in becan fat and butter)
  17. "Up The Ladder To The Roof" - The Supremes (Without Diana Ross, sound-alike Jean Terrel did a nice job.) I did some gigging at Motown in the late 1960s so I have a warm spot of Motown in it's Detroit days.
  18. Ain't That A Bitch - Johnny "Guitar" Watson 1970s funk at it's finest, and Mr. Watson could sing and play guitar well - and with a sense of humor.
  19. "Kind Of Blue" (full album) - Miles Davis
  20. Tommy Gun - The Clash
  21. I've got tickets to see this symphony performed, I think it's Rachmaninoff's best symphony and not performed often enough. I have it on CD but I'm checking out other conductor's interpretations of it. Symphony #1 - Sergei Rachmaninoff
  22. "Shotgun" - Jr. Walker and the All-Stars
  23. Once your tires get slashed it's time to re-tire
  24. Turtle Beach Sound Cards were the best in their day. Later the Sound Blaster with "Sound Fonts" captured people's attention and eventually the Turtles and Blasters were gone, but MIDI is still here.
