Listening to this now

[S.L.I.P.]

I got out vinyl today and am listening to "The Baddest Turrentine" by Stanley Turrentine.

It's on UTube but it sounds much better in vinyl

I prefer the first version. Or is it just a really shitty quality upload of the electric version.

Is it to make them go away as quickly as possible?

@Wibbles

I wish at times. "I really want to support the local shop."    Right,  you just told me all the online shops are sold out! Gotta love the public ?

[InstrEd]

Actually to make them leave I have this playing

Vince Jones, best Australian jazz artist ever, vocalist that also plays trumpet and flugel. In my view he is the best male vocalist Australia has ever produced but because of his Jazz idiom, wasn't as popular as other vocalists. Was at his height in the 80's, 90's I have most of his stuff and my voice sounds very much like his, I have sung many of his songs. He is at his best with laid back romantic Jazz in my view. Many of the songs he sings come from the 40's to 50's era and are re adaptions a bit like Frank Sinatra. Gets around with a quartet of fantastic musicians, not so much big band.

I would imagine that's quite a narrow field.

We don't do Rolf any more.

[craigb]

You didn't think that was a didgeridoo Rolf was holding, did ya? ?

[Tezza]

I was never convinced Rolf Harris was guilty anyway, that was a mob hanging. They were going after that other guy in the UK, but when he died they then switched their anger over towards Rolf.

While on the Aussie biopic, it would never be complete without Jimmy and Cold Chisel. This song still brings tears to my eyes as it has a special meaning to me as it does to others in different ways.

Good stuff!

(Is it true that that video was actually just shot in Australia a couple of months ago? ?)

Kylie. 

[Wibbles]

So why do Aussies call themselves Aussies, refer to the country as Oz, yet pronounce Australia as 'Stralia?
