You know that one day of the year when it's actually summer?  Well, I stick IATBGOTS on - plus Roy Ayers' Running Away, and I'm good to go.

You knows it.

And here is one song everybody should own.

Gil Scott-Heron's "The Bottle"

I must have known you'd load up Roy Ayres.

Have you had that day yet C ?

You're spooking me now, EC...!
The Revolution...............and Lady Day& John Coltrane; fab stuff.

I must be getting a bit predictable. But as I was in the genre I started picking out all these great tunes. I might stray into Jazz if I can stay up.

It's England - what do you think...?
But, I have a cunning plan.  I stick the tracks on daily from Jan 1st right thru' to 31st Dec.
Works for me!

Great choice. I must dig out the CD now.

I love Coltrane.

This thread could never end, so many great tunes to post.

Not at all.  
For me, it's all about flow...... plus a mood thing.  I ain't complaining, that's for sure.

Now that's a plan. I currently have an album on my iPod by a band called Ramp. they do a version of Everybody Love the Sunshine. Listen to that one regularly.

Getting into the Jazz mood now and as it is raining I thought this would add a nice background to it.

John Coltrane and Miles Davis - So What

That's good.
So, hopefully you will like my final post for tonight. A bit of Coltrane and Davis.

Night all. Will see you tomorrow as I am defo bumping this excellent thread.

Roy Orbison!  The clearest, most beautifully modulated voice; such clarity.
Nice one, Stoory.

OK, I'm outta here, so here's some 'quiet' tunes for the nightshift...










Night all. x

I am keeping this thread bumped cos I fell asleep last night and missed a lot of the tracks...

Have been catching up with them this morning though... 80's tastic,.

Oooooooooh what a treat, Thanks for 'Still Waters' Cosmo - I'd quite forgotten about that - it's a beautiful song.

Good morning Isadora. We had a lot of fun posting till quite late. Been good hearing some of the old tunes.

Glad you bumped - I was going to do it later on today - great thread.

This song really reminds me of lovely, hot, carefree summers when I was in my teens. I love it.

Just had a listen Soozywoo. Nice song.

what about this one...

It's going to take me ages to plough through this thread!

Have we had any of these yet? 

Just listening to this on Absolute '80's and remembered how much I liked it back in the '80's

My favourite driving song, turn it up and away I go....!!!!!

Just had a spend upon play.com including this lots greatest hits.

Is is safe to come in?



Mel N Kim and 911 scared me

^^^ My student days... fond memories of the common room with these being played.

I must have really wide musical tastes I think, because all the stuff I've posted, I love and most of it is on CD's or mp3 players or even on vinyl still.
